Truly great offers are rarer and rarer these days, especially direct from carriers, but today we have one exception for you. You can now get the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE from Verizon for effectively $0. If you get an eligible plan (Unlimited Welcome, Unlimited Plus, or Unlimited Ultimate), regardless of whether you're an existing customer or a new one, you can benefit from this offer. The way it works is you need to use Verizon's three-year installment plan for the purchase, and the carrier will give you bill credits every month in the exact amount that you were supposed to pay. So, as...
Xiaomi will soon launch two new tablets, the Pad 7 and Pad 7 Pro. The main specs for both have been leaked today in China. If you've been waiting for a successor to the Pad 6S Pro, these aren't that. Instead, as the naming implies, they're meant to replace the Pad 6 and Pad 6 Pro, launched in April 2023. The Xiaomi Pad 7 will allegedly be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset, and will have support for 45W wired charging. The Pad 7 Pro, on the other hand, will have the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 at the helm, paired with support for 67W wired charging. Xiaomi Pad 6 Both tablets...
Google started sending out the update to Wear OS 5 for the original Pixel Watch and the Pixel Watch 2 back in September. However, shortly after the rollout started, a lot of people reported a very nasty issue with these older watches - following the update, the watch would be stuck on a blank screen. Google listened to all of the reports and halted the update's rollout on September 26, but it only confirmed this today in an announcement on its support pages for the Pixel Watch line. The company says it plans to resume the Wear OS 5 rollout for the Pixel Watch and Pixel Watch 2...
The iQOO 13 will be launching in India on December 5, a new rumor claims. It's unclear if this will count as its international launch, and also if it will be unveiled in China ahead of that date. The iQOO 13 will sport BOE's Q10 display, the Chinese panel maker's latest and greatest, with 2K resolution, 144 Hz refresh rate, as well as higher brightness, a longer lifespan, lower color deviation, and lower power consumption than competing options. There will also be an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor. iQOO 12 The phone will be powered by the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite...
Huawei Watch GT 5 Pro is arguably the most interesting wearable by the Chinese maker this year and we finally get to put it through its paces. It's quite large and sits imposingly on the wrist – the 46 mm Titanium Body of the Classic Edition is matched with Titanium strap with a butterfly clasp. The Watch GT series is Huawei's middle ground of wearables — it is designed to match the Watch number series in looks but with a lower price tag and better battery life at the expense of cellular connectivity. It is built around a 1.43" AMOLED display that has been a staple since the GT 3...
Samsung's chipset choice for its upcoming Galaxy S25 family is proving to be a very popular subject in the rumors these days. We've recently heard that Exynos 2500 yields are low enough that Samsung would go with all-Snapdragon SoCs for the Galaxy S25 family, but then we've also heard that the just-unveiled MediaTek Dimensity 9400 was in the cards too. Today a new rumor claims that only the Galaxy S25 FE will use the Dimensity chip, although there have been negotiations between Samsung and MediaTek regarding the entire S25 family. And yet, the S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra are yet again all...
The rumor of massive camera upgrades for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra fell through – the latest report is that only the ultra wide camera will be upgraded to a 50MP sensor (ISOCELL JN3) and that’s it. The main camera will reuse the 200MP ISOCELL HP2, the 10MP module will keep the 10MP Sony IMX754, the 5x module is similarly keeping its 50MP IMX854 sensor. But the cameras will look different. That has to count for something, right? Here is an image shared by leakster Ice Universe, which shows the new design for the individual camera lenses with a thick, dark ring around each one. The...
The Honor X7c that leaked earlier this week has now been listed by a retailer in Kazakhstan ahead of its official unveiling. While the listings are pretty detailed and give us renders of the device, they bear some inconsistencies in terms of the display size and chipset so you should take the following info with caution. Honor X7c listing X7c features a 6.77-inch IPS LCD with 720p resolution and a 90Hz refresh rate. The previous leaks suggested a 120Hz LCD and note that one of the new listings also mentions a 6.56-inch panel instead of the 6.77". There’s a punch-hole cutout for the...
A couple of days ago, Cybernews published a report that claimed that the Pixel 9 Pro XL shares personal info with Google every 15 minutes, before even setting up the device. This includes your location, your email address and phone number, app list and other telemetry. However, the developers behind the privacy-focused Android fork called GrapheneOS point out that this is not unique to the Pixel 9 Pro XL – it is standard Android behavior. And not just that, they point out that iOS collects pretty much the same information. There's a highly inaccurate article about Pixels from Cybernews...
nubia launched the Z60 Ultra last December in China, and our trustworthy source tells us its successor - the nubia Z70 Ultra - should be unveiled next month. We are also told the nubia Z70 Ultra is coming to the global markets before the end of the year. There's no word from nubia about the Z70 Ultra yet, but reliable tipster Digital Chat Station posted a video on Weibo showing the incredibly thin bezels of the smartphone. You can watch it below. DCS said this is a 1220p resolution screen with no punch-hole or notch, which is hardly surprising since the Z60 Ultra didn't...
