Xiaomi juggles many product lines, but the T-series is special – it still carries some of that “flagship killer” spirit. This year the Xiaomi 14T series builds on the successful formula of the 13T phones from last year mostly with small but worthwhile upgrades. The new models upgrade to the next chipsets down the line. For the Xiaomi 14T Pro, this means that a Dimensity 9300+ replaces the 9200+, which results in a notable performance increase in most benchmarks and a modest bump in some. Xiaomi could have done more with the cooling, though. On the plus side, the jump to faster...

The results are in from last week’s poll and they are not encouraging – most voters believe that the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is overpriced. How come? Well, part of the problem is that the phone comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB storage as standard. While you can’t have more RAM, you could get 256GB storage. But since 128GB is pretty tight these days, people are looking at the 256GB price tag, not the 128GB one. That makes the FE feel expensive, especially when compared to mid-rangers from other brands, which start at 8/256GB or even 12/256GB. It’s not just other brands too, with a bit...
The Honor Magic V3 foldable has been out and about for some time now, in China at least, but during this year's IFA in Berlin, the company promised to bring the device to the global market as well.

Google is reportedly pushing a feature update to some Android phones, adding anti-theft functionalities such as Theft Detection Lock, Offline Device Lock and Remote Lock. The latter isn't exactly new, and many Android users already have it. However, the Theft Detection Lock and Offline Device Lock are brand new functionalities announced back in May and increase data security. Anti-theft features The Theft Detection Lock is the fanciest of them all. It leverages AI and the device's sensors to detect common motions associated with theft. For instance, if someone pulls the phone out...
Samsung released just two flagship tablets this year - the nearly 15-inch Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and this 12.4-inch Galaxy Tab S10+. You no longer get an 11-inch option, which few people purchased anyway. The Galaxy Tab S10+ is much smaller and more portable than the Tab S10 Ultra. It's also cheaper, naturally, but doesn't compromise on display quality or processing power. You get the same 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with an anti-reflective coating upfront. Inside is the 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ with four Cortex-X4 prime cores (one at 3.4GHz and three at 2.85GHz). Expect an 18%...
A new massive leak surfaced online, showcasing the Oppo Find X8 in real-life photos along with pretty much all the specs. The live images of the device don't reveal anything new - circular camera island on the back, extremely thin bezels on the front and flat frame design all-around. Oppo Find X8 live images The leaked spec sheet, however, gives us some missing pieces of the puzzle. The vanilla Oppo Find X8 will feature a 6.5-inch BOE-made OLED panel and will run on a still-unannounced Dimensity 9400 SoC. The camera configuration on the back will consist of three 50MP cameras...
With the diminishing iPhone Plus sales over the years, Apple is looking to substitute the Plus lineup with something more exciting. Or that's at least according to the rumors this year. Enter the iPhone 17 Slim, a new iPhone lineup, rumored to be even more expensive than the Pro Max series. New information coming from DigiTimes suggests the upcoming iPhone 17 Slim will feature a new kind of OLED display that could allow an extremely thin build. A lesser-known Taiwanese brand, Novatek, recently introduced a new TDDI OLED panel that combines the touch sensor layer and the display driver...
