Motorola RAZR 5G photographed, shows redesigned chin

Posted: 03 Aug 2020 06:42 AM PDT

The Motorola RAZR 5G was first mentioned months ago, but it's only now that we're seeing tangible clues. After the first image of the new foldable leaked last week, now three new shots show the phone in the hand. The iconic chin seems to have been tempered down and the fingerprint reader has moved. Where to? Even Samsung's Z Fold 2 and Z Flip 5G are not expected to have in-display readers, so maybe Motorola moved it to the side of the phone not seen in the photos.

Posted: 02 Aug 2020 10:20 PM PDT

OnePlus is already preparing its next OS version, and its first reveal will take place on August 10 at 2PM. It will come with new visual components, new functional features and what the company calls "brand-new interactive concept". The big caveat is the announcement is made on Weibo - the Chinese social media, meaning OnePlus will introduce Hydrogen 11 - the China-bound alternative to OxygenOS 11 that comes without Google services and with local alternatives.

Oppo Watch hands-on review

Posted: 02 Aug 2020 09:32 PM PDT

Introduction On Friday, Oppo announced that it will release its Watch to global markets. The Oppo Watch (which even sounds like 'Apple Watch' in addition to being very close to it designwise) is the Chinese phone maker's first Wear OS smartwatch. The Chinese variant runs a modified version of Android 8.1, but the global variant has a couple of key differences. The first is the inclusion of the Snapdragon 3100 Wear platform, which is almost two years old at this point, but is the fastest chipset available for wearables from Qualcomm. In contrast, the Chinese version of the Watch runs...

OnePlus Bullets Wireless Z vs Oppo Enco M31

Posted: 02 Aug 2020 01:22 PM PDT

The Bullets Wireless Z are OnePlus' pair of neckband-style Bluetooth wireless earbuds that were launched alongside the OnePlus 8 series. They are a cheaper version of the company's Bullets Wireless 2, with reduced material quality and driver count but in exchange offered a tremendously improved battery life. When I reviewed them a couple of months ago, I called them the best product in their price category. Then last month I reviewed the Oppo Enco M31, and things changed a bit. The M31 have the same form factor as the Bullets Wireless Z but didn't quite promise the same battery...
