The original Boox Palma gained traction as a compact e-reader that also doubled as a smartphone and the new Palma 2 is here to fix some of its shortcomings. While it may look identical to its predecessor, Palma 2 features an upgraded eight-core CPU which should help it perform faster in day-to-day tasks. The new model also boots Android 13 which may not be the latest version but it’s still a nice update coming from the Android 11 interface on Palma 1.

Samsung will use Snapdragon 8 Elite on all three Galaxy S25 phones, claims yet another tipster. According to Ice Universe, the Korean company will not use Exynos 2500 or Dimensity 9400, which might be a chip only seen in the Galaxy S25 FE.

Reports from Korea revealed that the new 3nm process is not as good as expected, and more chips fail to pass quality certification, leading to unstable production numbers. Initial...
So, you're looking for a shiny new iPhone? The iPhone 16 is certainly a very well-rounded device. Of course, a Pro model will be even better, but unless you really need the extra camera or the high refresh rate, you are probably better off sticking to one of the two vanilla models. If there is one thing Apple excels at (and it's definitely more than one thing), it must be consistency. Hence, it is hardly a secret, nor a surprise, that there is very little difference between the iPhone 16 Plus and iPhone 16. The Plus is simply bigger, with a bigger display and a larger battery pack....

Today, WhatsApp has announced an important overhaul of how it handles contacts. Up until this point, contacts in WhatsApp are the contacts on the phone it's installed on. That can be a problem for those who lose their phone and don't have backups of their contacts, for example. This can also be a headache for those who share a phone, as well as those who manage multiple accounts with separate contacts on one device. Thankfully, though, WhatsApp has a solution: a built-in contact manager. This will let you save contacts in the app, and so you won't lose them if you switch phones. The...

Google's Pixel 9a is expected to land in March, and we've already seen it in some intriguing leaked renders, which very much highlighted its lack of a camera bar/visor thing. Now a new rumor tells us the Pixel 9a will ditch the 64 MP main camera of its predecessors, and will instead borrow the 48 MP unit used in the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Google's most expensive smartphone. The Pro Fold being a foldable device, and one not made by a Chinese manufacturer, you shouldn't expect top level quality. But still, this should be a better snapper than what the Pixel a line has had before. While...
