Last week, we asked your opinion on two mid-range and two entry-level Motorola phones. We have the results from the poll in front of us now and let’s just say that some have more potential than others. Starting with the most promising model of the four, the Motorola Moto G77 was knocked for its Dimensity 6400 chipset – the 6000-series chips are better-suited for entry-level phones. The €300/£250 price range is home to much more powerful chips than this. The 108MP camera is the standout feature on the Moto G77 and such a high resolution sensor is indeed fairly rare in this segment....
This week we found some huge discounts on foldable phones that go up to $500 off. Don’t worry, though, there are plenty of bar phones to go around if you are not a fan of foldables. The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is $300 off at the moment, which makes it cheaper than the Samsung foldable at equal storage levels. The Pixel is down on performance (Tensor G5 vs. Snapdragon 8 Elite), but it does have more RAM than most Z Fold7 configurations (only the 1TB model has 16GB of RAM). The main 48MP camera on the Pixel 10 Pro Fold has a disappointingly small 1/2.0” sensor, which looks insufficient...
Samsung is reportedly working on a wide Galaxy Z Fold, and last year, some speculative renders showed us what this foldable smartphone could look like. However, thanks to One UI 9, we are now getting our best look yet at the wide Galaxy Z Fold. One UI 9 test builds for Samsung's unannounced Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Flip8 recently popped up, and those included a couple of animations, giving us our first sort of official look at the wide Galaxy Z Fold. These animations don't reveal much, but their presence in the One UI 9 builds confirms that Samsung is working on a wide Galaxy Z...

Google is set to unveil the Pixel 10a on February 18, and it has already shown us the phone's design. Not that we didn't know what the Pixel 10a would look like, but it's still good to have an official confirmation ahead of its unveiling. What Google hasn't revealed, though, is the Pixel 10a's specs sheet. While rumors claimed the Pixel 10a would just be a Pixel 9a in different colors, a new leak suggests that won't be the case. German blog WinFuture claims to have retailer data that reveals the Google Pixel 10a will be almost identical to the Pixel 9a, with the Pixel 10a's display...
A few days ago, Google said it would soon release the first Android 17 beta, and it did, but it was also quick to halt the release without any explanation. Well, the good news is that Google has resumed releasing Android 17 Beta 1, and it's now available for Pixel devices. Google says this build continues its work for more adaptable Android apps and brings significant enhancements to camera and media capabilities. Additionally, the Android 17 build includes expanded profiles for companion devices and new tools to optimize connectivity. Google has also replaced Developer Previews...
The global version of Honor's Magic7 Pro is finally being blessed with an update to MagicOS 10, the company's skin based on Android 16. Sure, it comes eight months after Google released Android 16, but better late than never, right? [#InlinePriceWidget,13480,1#] The update is MagicOS 10.0.0.121, and it arrives over-the-air as a 3.27GB download, so it's best grabbed over a fast enough network. You of course also need to make sure you have plenty of free space for it to download, extract, and install. The rollout is most likely happening in batches, as is always the case, so if you...
GF Securities analyst Jeff Pu has come out with a new research note, and in it he's outlined five upgrades coming to the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max later this year. First, the Dynamic Island will be smaller, since the flood illuminator used for Face ID will be moved under the display. Next, the 48MP main camera will come with variable aperture. iPhone 18 Pro rumored colors Pu also details three chips coming to the Pro series. The A20 Pro will be powering the devices, and it will be made using TSMC's first-gen 2nm process and a new packaging design. The N2 chip will be the...
A new Poco smartphone, the C81 Pro, is on the way. This was revealed because it was just certified for sale in Thailand by NBTC. It has the model number 25128PC17G, and the certification confirms that it's going to lack 5G support. That and the fact that it's a member of Poco's entry-level C-series means we should expect a low-end device. It was also certified in January by SDPPI in Indonesia, but at the time it was identified as the Poco C81. In the meantime, it seems to have gained the Pro suffix - this is the same device. It's also expected to be sold in some markets as the Redmi A7...
