Bose QC35 II successors pass through FCC, reveal design

Posted: 19 Jul 2021 06:23 AM PDT

When Bose introduced its Noise Cancelling Headphones 700, we thought that this is the end of the QC lineup and marks the start of a new era. Yet the company is planning to release a direct successor to the QuietComfort 35 II as an FCC filing reveals. The listing doesn't reveal much except that the new headphones will be called Bose QuietComfort 45 and that they would look almost identically to their predecessors. The only change to the exterior is the USB-C port instead of the aged microUSB. Otherwise, some of you will probably be delighted to see that the hardware controls are...

Posted: 18 Jul 2021 10:25 PM PDT

The Huawei P50 series finally got an oficial launch date. An event will take place on July 29, where we'll see the start of a new era of mobile photography, according to Richard Yu, CEO at Huawei.

Top 10 trending phones of week 28

Posted: 18 Jul 2021 06:57 PM PDT

Week 29 saw a lot of movement in our trending chart, but the leading trio of Redmi Note 10 Pro, Poco X3 Pro and Redmi Note 10 remains unchallanged. Still it's one of the most diverse editions of the chart in recent memory as four more makers managed to get a phone in. The new leading Samsung phone is rather surprisingly the Galaxy M21 2021, which isn't even official yet. However it managed to gather more attention than the Galaxy S21 Ultra and Galaxy A52 and take the fourth position. The Poco F3 stayed seventh as two more upcoming phones took the next two spots - Nokia XR20 and the...

Samsung Galaxy A22 5G in for review

Posted: 18 Jul 2021 01:12 PM PDT

This is the Samsung Galaxy A22 5G - it costs €250 and for that you get a 90Hz display, 5G connectivity courtesy of a MediaTek Dimensity 700 chipset and a 5,000mAh battery. You also get a proper 3.5mm headphone jack and headphones in the box to boot. There's also a 15W charger and cable, but no case. The Galaxy A22 5G has a dull-looking grey finish, but the matte texture on the rear feels great to the touch and dispenses, at least to some degree, with smudges and fingerprints. The display is not an OLED, but is sharp at 1080p and has surprisingly adequate brightness, which we...
