Introduction At this point nubia's Red Magic has solid traditions in the gaming smartphone segment and it felt confident enough to venture into the broader gaming world.

Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Limited Edition announced

Samsung has announced the Galaxy S23 Ultra Limited Edition, which isn't a special edition S23 Ultra coming in a new color or with new features, but an 8GB/256GB Phantom Black Galaxy S23 Ultra bundled with the Galaxy Watch5 Blue Sapphire 44m model (non-LTE) and a 15W dual wireless charger.

Best Buy US offers $50 discount on the Pixel 7a, adds a $50 gift card

Google launched the Pixel 7a at its I/O conference and, unfortunately, the phone is $50 pricier than its predecessor – it’s $500 on the US Google store, while the 6a was $450. It’s a much improved phone as you can read in our hands-on review, so the $50 uptick is not surprising, but the good news is that you can go around the price hike. Google Pixel 7a in Charcoal, Sea and Snow Best Buy is selling the Pixel 7a (unlocked) for $450 and also includes a $50 gift card with the purchase.

Oppo may be pulling out of France after June 30, internal sources claim

Last year Oppo pulled its phones from Germany due to a legal spat with Nokia. This March a report came out, claiming that Oppo (and its sibling OnePlus) will leave several key markets: France, Germany, the Netherlands, the UK. Both Oppo and OnePlus refuted that report, but there may still be trouble on the horizon. Frandroid interviewed several employees in France to find out what’s happening. One worked for Atmospheres, a contractor for Oppo that handles phone sales. According to that person, the service contract with Oppo ends on June 30. A former Oppo sales manager said that...

The two iPhone 16 Pro models will have taller displays

The iPhone X represented a major change in Apple designs – the Home button and most of the top bezel were removed, allowing the screen to stretch vertically. This signaled the end of the old 16:9 screens and 19.5:9 became the preferred number. The current iPhone 14 series still uses that aspect ratio and the iPhone 15 will as well. However, the one after that might not. According to analyst Ross Young, the iPhone 16 Pro and 16 Pro Max will switch to a taller aspect ratio, though it’s not clear how much (20:9 or 20.5:9, probably). The diagonals will grow slightly from 6.1” and 6.7” to 6.2X”...
