Itel has just announced its new budget-oriented Zeno 20 smartphone, which is a direct successor to the Itel Zeno 10 from earlier this year.

Back in February at MWC, Tecno first presented its Spark Slim concept phone, which was just 5.75mm thick, in a bid to preempt Samsung's Galaxy S25 Edge and the iPhone 17 Air. However, Tecno's device still hasn't launched, while the S25 Edge is official. That, however, will change soon. Tecno is now apparently planning to bring its slimmest phone to date to India, though it's unclear if it will be using the Spark Slim name or a different one (we'll still call it Spark Slim in this article for simplicity's sake). Tecno Spark Slim concept The phone is going to cost around INR 80,000,...

They will be on offer for all four iPhone 17 devices, though colors may vary for different models. Apple TechWoven cases The cases have a dense, slightly textured weave...
