Infinix Note 60 Pro is finally headed to India

Infinix launched the Note 60 Pro globally in February and released it in March, but the phone is yet to make it to India. That will change later this month, however, with the brand now starting its local teaser campaign for the device by revealing its active matrix Nothing-inspired rear display. Infinix promises it will reveal another feature on April 4 at 12 PM local time, but this phone is already official elsewhere, so the specs aren't a mystery. The Note 60 Pro comes with a 6.78-inch AMOLED screen with 1208x2644 resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and 4,500-nit peak brightness, the...

vivo starts teasing the T5 Pro, confirms its huge battery

The vivo T5 Pro first surfaced in February in an IMEI database, then in March we got two separate spec leaks, and today the brand is finally acknowledging that this phone exists and is coming soon. vivo's official X account for India shared the post you can see below, calling the T5 Pro "the ultimate powerhouse". That tagline is, of course, ridiculous - this isn't a top of the line device, so it's definitely not an ultimate anything. We wonder what the vivo X300 Ultra thinks about this marketing direction. The ultimate powerhouse.. Loading….vivo T5 Pro coming soon.Search now on Flipkart...

Galaxy S26 FE hits Geekbench, reveals the chipset Samsung chose

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S26 FE is now listed in the Geekbench online database, as someone in possession of a prototype has run the benchmark (version 6.2.2 to be precise). The phone managed a single-core score of 2,426 and a multi-core score of 8,004, as you can see from the screenshot below. The prototype in question has 8GB of RAM and runs Android 17. It's powered by the Exynos 2500 SoC. The Android version tells us the S26 FE isn't launching anytime soon, since Android 17 hasn't even been released by Google. So it might be a few months away still, which isn't surprising...

New Honor Pad 10 Pro packs a Dimensity 8350 in a 6.1mm chassis, Pad X10 and X10 Pro join it

Report: Samsung is looking to offset rising RAM prices in an unusual way

The rising cost of memory chips in the last year or so has forced manufacturers of electronic goods to come up with various strategies to offset the burden, especially smartphone makers that have a portfolio of low-end to mid-range devices. Bumping up the price of more affordable devices could potentially spell trouble. This doesn't necessarily apply to the high-end smartphones, where manufacturers are more inclined to shift the cost to consumers. A report from a Korean publication DealSite suggests that Samsung swapped out its homemade OLED panels in some of its mid-range models,...

Tecno Pova Curve 2 hands-on

This is the Tecno Pova Curve 2 and its key asset is its massive 8,000mAh battery. But there's more to it so let's have a look. The phone just launched in India and is available in Mystic Purple, Melting Silver (ours), and Storm Titanium, and in either 8/128GB or 8/256GB options. It starts from INR 27,999 (€258 and £221, converted) and ships with a case, 45W charger, and a USB-A to USB-C cable. Tecno Pova Curve 2 So about that battery. It's truly impressively sized, right?

Motorola is working on three new Edge 70 phones

Motorola's Edge 70 family is going to get bigger in the near future, according to a new leak from the legendary Evan Blass. The company has already made the Edge 70, Edge 70 Fusion, and Edge 70 Fusion+ official, and the Signature too (which is an honorary member of the family since it was initially rumored to be called Edge 70 Ultra). However, three more devices are allegedly going to join these. We're talking about the Edge 70 Pro, the Edge 70 Pro+, and the Edge 70 Pro Lite. Yes, that last one's name is pretty much a contradiction in terms - how can it be Pro and Lite at the same time?...

Google Pixel 11 Pro CAD-based renders leak too

Yesterday, CAD-based renders showing the upcoming Google Pixel 11 leaked, and today the Pixel 11 Pro has received the exact same treatment. The Pixel 11 Pro Fold was first, though, earlier this month. So we're now only missing the Pixel 11 Pro XL to have the full family portrait. Like the Pixel 11, the Pixel 11 Pro has a redesigned camera island that, while keeping the oval shape of its predecessor, is now covered with dark glass all the way - the colored part is gone. On the other side, the Pixel 11 Pro's screen bezels are okay, but will probably end up being thicker than some...

Xiaomi TV Stick HD 2nd gen arrives with a faster chipset and HDR10+ support

Last year, Xiaomi released the TV Stick 4K 2nd gen with a more powerful chipset and HDR10+ support. Now the company is refreshing its basic TV Stick HD with similar features. Starting with the exterior, it uses the more rounded design of the 4K 2nd gen. Alas, the power port is still a micro-USB – come on, Xiaomi. Note that there is only one USB port and no microSD slot, so if you want to connect extra storage, you’ll have to look at Xiaomi’s TV Boxes. The original stick didn’t support USB-OTG and we’re not sure whether this one does, but that’s an awkward solution anyway. This stick is...

Huawei Chairman promises expanded satellite connectivity across cheaper phones and watches

Huawei Consumer Business Group Chairman of the Board of Directors Richard Yu has some good news for fans of both the brand and satellite connectivity. He promises that Huawei will expand satellite connectivity to lower-priced devices, so it won't be confined to high-end models only. This will be a new chapter in the company's journey, and it's necessary because, according to Yu, mobile networks don't cover enough of the world. Thus, connectivity struggles still exist. So, satellite tech is the solution. Yu also promised that satellite connectivity will come to affordable...

Gurman: iOS 27's Siri Extensions feature will get its own App Store section

Last week, a report revealed that Apple plans to let Siri connect with third-party AI chatbots through a new ‘Extensions’ feature in iOS 27. Now, additional details about the feature have surfaced. In his Power On newsletter, Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman reports that the Extensions feature will have its own dedicated section within the App Store, effectively serving as a marketplace for AI integrations. Users will be able to browse this section and add third-party chatbots to Siri, enabling them to run directly within the assistant. However, the feature will only work with apps that...

Google Pixel 11 CAD-based renders leak

Earlier this month, CAD-based renders portraying the upcoming Google Pixel 11 Pro Fold leaked, and today the vanilla Pixel 11 is getting the exact same treatment. Like the Pro Fold, this one is expected to become official in August. Compared to its predecessor from 2025, the Pixel 11 has noticeably smaller bezels, as well as a tweaked camera island design. The oval-shaped island is now fully covered by glass - the metallic part on its right side is gone. That said, the design overall is very Pixel-like and doesn't change a lot.

Realme Narzo 100 Lite details leak, said to launch soon

Realme is gearing up to launch the successor to the Narzo 80 Lite in India soon, according to a new leak. Called the Narzo 100 Lite, the upcoming device is expected to be a budget offering, said to come in two color options and three RAM/storage configurations. The Realme Narzo 100 Lite is tipped to be the first device in the upcoming Narzo 100 lineup, set to succeed the Narzo 90 series. However, since the Narzo 90 lineup did not include a Lite variant, the 100 Lite is likely to serve as a successor to last year’s Narzo 80 Lite.

Weekly poll results: the Oppo Find N6 gets praise, but limited availability is an issue

The Oppo Find N6 will be a very popular phone – and it could have been even more popular, but Oppo decided not to offer it in Europe. Otherwise, the N6 could have hit an impressive 50% positive vote in last week’s poll or gone even higher, assuming the phone reviews well (we have a review unit and we’re already testing it). The phone’s predecessor, the Find N5, impressed us last year and the N6 brings several important upgrades like the “zero-feel” crease, the 200MP main camera and the larger 6,000mAh Si/C battery. Of course, foldables aren’t for everyone – many in the comments said...

Apple discontinues the Mac Pro after twenty years

Apple has discontinued the Mac Pro. The venerable desktop computer had a twenty-year run and served as the flagship model in the company's lineup for most of its lifetime. The company has since removed the product from its website. The Mac Pro first launched in 2006 as a replacement for the then flagship Power Mac G5. Similar to its predecessor, the Mac Pro was a desktop tower PC with a modular design that allowed the user to replace the CPU, memory, optical and storage drives, and PCI expansion cards. The basic format of the Mac Pro remained unchanged till 2012, even as it...
