We’ve seen leaked specs for the upcoming vivo X series phones before, but we still don’t have a complete picture. Digital Chat Station provides another piece of the puzzle, focusing on the vivo X80. The phone will be powered by the Dimensity 9000, rather than the 8000 as some earlier leaks suggested. The chipset will be cooled by a 4,000 mm² vacuum chamber. Last month we saw an X80 with the Dimensity 9000 top the AnTuTu and Geekbench charts, this is definitely MediaTek’s best chip yet. According to a previous leak, the vivo X80 Pro will also use the Dimensity 9000, while the Pro+ model...

We are already stepping into April, meaning the new iPhone launch is about five and a half months away. Since we are not getting a UD sensor or a periscope camera, what are we getting? Well, the iPhone 14 is coming with two punch holes, an improved main camera sensor, a thicker body and the...

This phone will soon be surpassed by the model code named “Frontier”, which will likely be marketed as the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra globally and X30 Pro in China (following the X30).

The Google Pixel 6 duo still don’t have Face Unlock over half a year since their initial launch. As far as rumors go, Google wanted to implement facial recognition to its phones but missed the deadline and ultimately shipped its flagship phones without the feature. There might still be some hope though as XDA Recognized Developer Freak07 found new evidence of Face Unlock on Pixel 6 series while digging through the Android 12 Quarterly Platform Release (QPR) 3 Beta. The evidence suggests that Google might still push Face Unlock for Pixel 6 phones as a future software update but there's...

Performance throttling based on app name may be more prevalent than we know – John Poole (co-founder of Primate Labs, maker of Geekbench) discovered that the Xiaomi Mi 11 scores noticeably lower with a tweaked version of the benchmark. The tweak is simple, it just disguises Geekbench as Fortnite. The same results were achieved when the benchmark was dressed up as Genshin Impact and other titles. The results show 30% lower single-core CPU performance and 16% lower multi-core performance. It looks like that Cortex-X1 based core is having trouble with under sustained load (either with heat...

You can make a reservation to buy a OnePlus 10 Pro in the States, even though the US price of the phone still isn’t known – the global launch is set for March 31 (Thursday). Someone should tell MediaMarkt that since the German arm of the retailer has already listed OnePlus’ new flagship.

One of the many phones vivo is readying, the iQOO Neo6 is the center of a fresh new leak. It's a pair of images, showing two of the three colors of the upcoming phone, as well as possibly giving a hint as to its unveil date. The iQOO Neo6 will be offered in Blue, Orange, and Black. One of the pictures suggests that vivo will announce it on April 13 in China. A glimpse at the rear reveals a square camera island that's been crudely photoshopped out.

The vivo X Fold smartphone was officially confirmed on Friday and now we even get a launch date. It will debut on April 11 with a big screen on the inside, just like the Oppo Find N and Galaxy Z Fold3. The new vivo phone will also have a secondary screen on the outside. The inner fold is not really a surprise given how all the competitors are going for the same factor, although we weren’t counting off an attempt from vivo to bring something different to the market, like an outwards hinge like the first Huawei Mate X. The event in two weeks is also supposed to be the launch...

iQOO unveiled the iQOO 9 and iQOO 9 Pro in January in China and introduced the pair in India in February, which was joined by an SE model - a first in iQOO's number series. We have already reviewed the Pro version, and our review of the vanilla model is underway. However, we've also got the iQOO 9 SE at our HQ for testing. But before we put the iQOO 9 SE through its paces, let's see what the most affordable smartphone in the iQOO 9 series offers. The iQOO 9 SE packs a 6.62" 120Hz FullHD+ AMOLED screen protected by Panda Glass. It is HDR10+ certified and has 1,200 nits of peak brightness....

Samsung's Galaxy A series is still the most popular in our database, but there has been an internal reshuffle and it's the Galaxy A53 on top now. We then have the Galaxy A73 in second, while last week's leader - the Galaxy A33 is all the way down in eight. Redmi's Note 11 just edged out another Samsung phone - the Galaxy S22 Ultra - for the last podium spot. The newly announced Realme GT Neo3 sits in fifth, ahead of the Xiaomi 12 Pro, which is exactly where we left it last week. Apple's latest, iPhone SE (2022) took seventh, while the company's greatest iPhone 13 Pro sits in tenth....

This is the Samsung Galaxy A13 - Samsung's latest entry-level A series phone. The Galaxy A13 is a simple phone that provides a good set of specs, an emphasis on display and battery life, at the affordable starting price of €190 for the 4/64GB model, which we have today. The phone comes with a SIM tool and a cable, just like the expensive Galaxy S22 Ultra. The Galaxy A13 is a handsome phone. It has a minimalistic feel to it with its simple design - the body of the phone is made of plastic and lacks any sort of cutouts or shapes. It kind of reminds us of the unapologetically...

The Realme GT Neo3 is launching next week (in China) and it will become only the second Dimensity 8100 phone to hit the market. It is also the first to use Realme’s new UltraDart charging architecture, running at 150W (the middle of its planned range of 100-200W). Well, some units will use the 150W system, others will charge at 80W – not slow by any means (0-100% in 32 minutes), but not headline-grabbing either. The 80W model comes with a slightly larger battery, 5,000 mAh vs. 4,500 mAh for the 150W model. There is no official 0-100% time for the 150W model, but a 0-50% charge should be...

Have you noticed how phones with fast charging tend to have smaller batteries than phones that charge slowly? We did. We even asked manufacturers about it, however, they were pretty tight lipped about the details. So, we decided to do our own research. We searched through our database for devices from the same maker, that launched around the same time and that have the same dimensions (down to the tenth of a millimeter), but offer different charge speeds. The idea is to remove as many variables as possible. Often times addition of fast charging is the difference between vanilla and Pro...

Samsung may want to reconsider the launch plans for the Galaxy A73 5G. The results from last week’s poll show that this may be the best phones in the 2022 Galaxy A series. And yet we still don’t know where it will be available or how much it will cost. All we know is that it will launch in select regions in late April. We thought that losing the telephoto camera and not having a larger battery than the A53 would hurt it, but that wasn’t the case. The A73 topped the poll and got a better reception than the A53 and A33. The biggest threat to the A73 may be an S-series flagship instead of...

We reviewed the iQOO 9 Pro unveiled in January and concluded it's a smartphone that's worth considering if you are in the market for an Android flagship. Today, we have the vanilla iQOO 9 at our office for a full review. But do note that this is the Snapdragon 888 Plus-powered model launched in India last month and not the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 variant, which is exclusive to China.
