Google Pixel 7a to come with dual rear camera, 90Hz screen, and wireless charging

One of the biggest complaints about the Google Pixel 6a unveiled in May was the lack of a high-refresh-rate display, and it looks like the internet search giant has noted that feedback since new information that has surfaced online reveals the Pixel 7a will pack a FullHD+ 90Hz panel, sourced from Samsung. This revelation comes from developer Kuba Wojciechowski, who also dug through the camera drivers and found that Pixel 7a's camera setup is called the "Pixel 22 Mid-range." Google Pixel 6a The Pixel 7a, codenamed "lynx," was initially reported to have a rear camera setup comprising...

New Android Auto UI is finally coming to public beta testers

You might remember that back In May, Google showed off a pretty major makeover to the Android Auto interface. The design overhaul was originally slated for a summer release, but that obviously didn't come to pass. We have no idea what caused the delay, but it seems to finally be coming to an end as the new UI has started seeding to public beta users. Unfortunately, a quick peek at the Google Play Store listing for Android Auto reveals that all of the slots for the beta branch are already full. This means that if you aren't already a beta tester, you won't be able to experience the...

Here's why the Asus ROG Phone 6 Pro snapped in half when bent

Earlier this week, the Asus ROG Phone 6 Pro was subjected to what is now a traditional bend test on YouTube and did not live to tell the tale - snapping in half no less. That's a similar story to what happened to the ROG Phone 5 Ultimate last year, so it's not overly surprising, but still - most phones that go through the same bend test survive. So what gives? Why did the ROG Phone 6 Pro give in? That's what today's teardown video wants to explore, while also giving us a look at the phone's insides. The thing that stands out the most is a weird hole in the middle part of the phone,...

Foldable iPhone is now a reality thanks to a year-long DIY project

Apple has been rumored to enter the folding phone race for a while but early reports suggest that’s at least a couple of years away at this point and it might not even be an iPhone but an iPad tablet device. Instead of waiting for the folding iPhone from Apple, the team over at Tech Aesthetics decided to venture out and create a clamshell foldable out of iPhone X internals and the chassis of a Motorola Razr 2019. The resulting device is called iPhone V and took nearly a year of hard work, reverse engineering and multiple trial and error instances to complete. The team behind the...

The Galaxy A52 5G got 3C certified in January 2021, and then launched in March the same year. Similarly, the Galaxy A53 5G got its 3C stamp of approval in January this year and went official in March. So, the trend is obviously to get it certified around two months before the unveiling.

The Ear Stick are meant to be an alternative to the previously launched Nothing Ear 1. While the Ear 1 have a more common in-ear design, the Ear Stick use the older half in-ear design like the AirPods. As such, they also lack features like active noise cancellation and transparency mode. What they gain instead is a...

Weekly poll: would you be interested in one of the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 phones?

Xiaomi broke new ground with the Redmi Note 12 series. Not only is this the first mid-range series to feature a 200MP camera, this series is also home to the first phone to break the 200 Watt charging barrier. Note that the four models are available only in China for now, but they should launch to an international audience soon enough. When they do (and assuming there aren't any deal-breaking changes), would you buy one? We’ll start with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 12 Pro as it is the linchpin of the series.
