OnePlus is unveiling the Turbo 6 and Turbo 6V on January 8, and the brand has already revealed some of their specs a few days ago, along with two videos. Now OnePlus has also confirmed the handsets' oft-rumored 9,000 mAh battery capacity, along with an interesting detail. The Turbo 6's camera island protrudes just 1.7mm on top of its rear. It's not quite flush, RedMagic-style, but very, very close. Obviously, the Turbo line isn't focused on camera quality (one could argue none of OnePlus' recent devices are), which allows for such small camera island protrusions, but this is still a...
Samsung’s upcoming premium A-series smartphone, the Galaxy A57, will reportedly sport a flexible OLED display for the first time. According to a report, the panel will be supplied by Chinese display manufacturer CSOT. While CSOT won’t be the sole supplier of the flexible OLED panels for the Galaxy A57, this would mark the first time Samsung is set to source displays from a manufacturer other than its in-house Samsung Display. The Galaxy A56 features a 6.7-inch AMOLED display. However, Samsung Display is said to supply more units than CSOT. A flexible OLED panel would mean that the...

It has so far received...
Introduction Motorola had a strong year thanks to its Razr foldables, however, the direction of the Edge series left something to be desired. The brand is one of the few available in the US outside of the Apple-Google-Samsung trinity and shouldn’t be overlooked, even when it doesn’t get things 100% right. Motorola’s mostly clean Android implementation and the advanced connectivity features (even on some lower-end models) add to what are already some of the better value-for-money phones on the market. Winners: Motorola Razr series The Razr 60 series – or as it is known in the US,...
