More Google Pixel 6 and 5a rumors surface - performance, pricing, colors

Posted: 24 May 2021 08:30 AM PDT

In a newly released podcast with Max Weinbach - a popular tipster and tech journalist - reveals some interesting details surrounding the rumored Pixel 6 and 5a. We've summarized the most important bits of the podcast. Starting with the so-called Whitechapel chip, Weinbach's sources believe that it won't be as powerful as the Snapdragon 888 or Samsung's Exynos 2100. It's still going to be based on Samsung's 5nm tech, but it will fall somewhere between the Snapdragon 865 and 888 in terms of raw performance. The special bit about the custom SoC is the NPU (Neural Processing Unit) and...

Apple details the iPad Pro's XDR Display based on the mini-LED tech

Posted: 24 May 2021 07:45 AM PDT

Apple's newly released iPad Pro 2021 features a brand new generation of LCD panels with mini-LED backlight and up until now, we didn't have much information about the current implementation and the under-the-hood features it provides. The updated user manual on Apple's official website gives us a good idea of the XDR Display. Since the panel is built on small, individually controlled dimming zones, it supports HDR-ready content without sacrificing color accuracy in the process. The maximum brightness on the 12.9-inch screen is whopping 1000 nits on full-screen. And that can go up to...

Posted: 24 May 2021 06:30 AM PDT

Xiaomi sub-brand Redmi will introduce the new Redmi Note 10 series smartphones on May 26. The company hasn't revealed how many phones it will unveil on Wednesday, but it has been drip-feeding us with information about the new Note 10 devices since last week. A few days ago, Redmi revealed the design of one of the Note 10 series smartphones while also confirming a few of its specs. Now the Chinese phone maker has announced that the Note 10 series will pack a 120Hz LCD, which will have a punch hole in the center for the selfie camera. Redmi Note 10 series display specs The...

OxygenOS 11.0.1.1 arrives to fix some issues for OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro

Posted: 24 May 2021 05:30 AM PDT

After updating to OxygenOS 11 based on Android 11, it hasn't been exactly smooth sailing for some OnePlus 7 and 7T series owners. That's why OnePlus is pushing yet another update for the OnePlus 7 and 7 Pro to fix most if not all of the known problems produced by the latest version of the OS. Arguably, the most important fix is the one related to connectivity. Google Fi SIM issues have been resolved while 4G and Wi-Fi performance has been greatly improved. The native Phone and Camera apps have been updated as well as the Gallery app and Shelf. All of these apps have been causing...

vivo X60 curved screen edition announced in China

Posted: 24 May 2021 04:23 AM PDT

The X60 family form vivo already boasts six members (three of which are China exclusive) and now Chinese users get a new curved screen edition of the vanilla X60. The device was introduced in China earlier today and as the name implies the only major difference compared to the vanilla X60 here is that the screen bends on both sides. The panel comes in at 6.56-inches and is of the AMOLED variety with a 120Hz refresh rate. The Exynos 1080 chipset sits at the helm while the battery comes in at 4,300 mAh battery and sports 33W fast charging. There's a triple camera setup on board with a...

iQOO Neo5 Lite announced with Snapdragon 870 SoC and 144Hz screen

Posted: 24 May 2021 03:10 AM PDT

vivo introduced the iQOO Neo5 in March, and today the company followed up with its more affordable version, dubbed iQOO Neo5 Lite. Like the Neo5, the Lite variant also comes with a Snapdragon 870 SoC, Android 11-based OriginOS, and a 16MP selfie camera. But that's where the similarities end, since the iQOO Neo5 Lite packs a 6.57" FullHD+ 144Hz LCD instead of a tad larger AMOLED panel on the regular Neo5 with a 120Hz refresh rate, meaning you get a side-mounted fingerprint reader instead of an in-display solution. Another difference between the two smartphones is in the battery...

Redmi Note 10 5G in for review

Posted: 23 May 2021 07:29 PM PDT

We remember when 3G networks started rolling out – they were the first to offer fast Internet on the go. You could browse comfortably the web and even stream video (including video chat). It was a big deal. Then 4G came and improved speeds further, but more importantly it reduced the latency. Now we're crossing over to the next G and what does that promise? More speed, less latency. With a phone like the Redmi Note 10 5G you can be among the first to experience the next generation networks without the price premium of cutting edge tech – this model starts at just $200.

Top 10 trending phones of week 20

Posted: 23 May 2021 04:33 PM PDT

Xiaomi lost some positions in our trending chart last week, but it's regrouping now with the newly launched Poco M3 Pro helping it occupy the entire top 5. The new phone managed to split the Redmi Note 10 Pro and Redmi Note 10 on the podium, but came just short of the gold medal. Two more Poco phones follow with the X3 Pro ahead of the F3. We then have three Samsung phones with the Galaxy S21 Ultra ahead of the A72 and the A12. There are not Galaxy A52 phones in the top 10 this week, despite both of them making it the last time around. The nubia Z30 Pro, another newly announced...

Flashback: these phones and watches could unlock and start your car (Nissan, Mercedes, Audi, BMW)

Posted: 23 May 2021 01:19 PM PDT

One of the new features of Android 12 is using your phone to unlock select cars and start their engine – this feature is being co-developed by Google and BMW and will use the new UWB wireless radio. But Nissan did this over a decade ago in partnership with phone maker Sharp and carrier NTT DoCoMo. In 2008 they showed off the Mobile Phone with Built-in Intelligent Key prototype. It could lock/unlock and start/stop the engine of certain Nissan and Infinity cars. And the cool thing was that this didn't mean future models – there were already over 950,000 vehicles on the road, dating...

Week 20 in review: Android 12 debuts, Pixel 6 leaks, 1-inch camera a reality

Posted: 23 May 2021 10:07 AM PDT

As we see another week's end it's time to recap the major events from it. Android's next major update was announced. Android 12 entered beta phase this week and comes with a major new design, called Material You, that dynamically changes with your wallpaper. You simply choose a wallpaper and the system automatically determines which colors are dominant, which are complementary, and which "just look great". It then applies those colors across the entire OS - the notification shade, the lock screen, the volume controls, new widgets, and so on. Android 12 is available for Pixel phones...
