Apple discontinues Intel 21” iMac, prepares for Pro/Max variant in 2022

Apple quietly removed the Intel-powered 21” iMac from its stores in the weekend and later confirmed the deliberate act. With the discontinuation of the $1,099 desktop, there are only two left on the store - the 24” variant, powered by the M1 chip, and the Intel-based 27” option. Rumors are suggesting a new small Mac is on its way, and it will arrive in the first half of 2022 with M1 Pro and M1 Max chips. iMac (Pro)Promotion and Mini LedBase model 16gb Ram 512gb StorageM1 Pro and MaxDark bezelsHDMI, SD Card, Usb CSimilar design to iMac 24 and Pro Display XDRStarting price at or over 2000...

Royole FlexPai 3 appears in official-looking images

Back in October of 2018, Royole announced its FlexPai foldable smartphone and earned itself bragging rights by having the first foldable on the market and beating out the likes of Samsung and Huawei. Fast forward three years later and we seem to be in for a third installment in the FlexPai series. Evan Blass shared a detailed render of the FlexPai 3 detailing the phone’s design which we previously saw leak in a TENAA listing back in February. How about this?

Xiaomi pushes half a million Redmi Note 11 devices in one hour

Xiaomi introduced the Redmi Note 11 series last week with three amazing smartphones, and unsurprisingly they sold out during the first flash sale. According to official sources, over 500,000 units were sold in the span of one hour - that includes the Redmi Note 11 that was on sale, as well as pre-ordering Redmi Note 11 Pro and Redmi Note 11 Pro+.

Top 10 trending phones of week 42

A couple of events took place this week that had a major impact on our trending chart. Xiaomi's new Redmi Note 11 lineup stormed the top with the Pro+, leading from the regular Pro, while Sony's new Xperia Pro-I rounded up the top three. We then have the vanilla Redmi Note 11, meaning the entire top 4 consists of newly announced phones. But it doesn't end there - the Xiaomi 11i HyperCharge which is merely the rumored name of the Pro+ in India is in sixth, splitting last week's leading Google Pixel 6 duo. The Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max was slipping down from the lead over the past two weeks...

Oppo Reno6 Pro 5G in for review

Oppo announced the Reno6 5G, Reno6 Pro 5G, and Reno6 Pro+ 5G in China in May, and the first two began their global rollout in July, starting with India. The Pro+ variant arrived in Europe in September, but under the Reno6 Pro 5G moniker. That means you get a Snapdragon 870 SoC with the European Reno6 Pro 5G, unlike the Indian model that has the Dimensity 1200 chip at the helm. We did a hands-on review of the Dimensity model a few months ago, and now we've received the Snapdragon variant for review at the office in the Arctic Blue color, but you also have the option to pick one in Lunar...
