Sep 15, 2026

After teasing the arrival of its next flagship phone for the past few days in China, iQOO has finally revealed its launch date. The iQOO 16 will be officially unveiled on September 29 at 7pm local time in China, and the company says sales will begin immediately after the launch event. Here’s a look at what to expect from this performance-focused offering.

iQOO 16 launch date and design

Despite being positioned as the standard model, iQOO says the iQOO 16 will deliver hardware and features that can rival higher-end Pro Max models.

The design is expected to follow a futuristic theme, with the “Tomorrow’s Porthole” design language shaping the camera area. The three rear cameras are linked visually through a mechanical-style structure inspired by a spacecraft window.

The Light Chaser color variant of the device will flaunt a holographic rear panel. Its laser holographic imaging technology uses multiple manufacturing processes to create changing red and blue light effects as the viewing angle shifts. It will also arrive in Legend and Racing Track color variants.

The display could be one of the phone’s biggest highlights. iQOO has confirmed that the iQOO 16 will be the first smartphone to feature a 2K resolution panel with a 165Hz refresh rate, developed jointly with Samsung Display.

The panel uses Samsung Display’s latest M16 organic light-emitting material and LEAD 2.0 technology without a traditional polarizer. According to the company, this approach can reduce power consumption by around 30% while retaining the high resolution and refresh rate.

The 6.85-inch screen is also expected to support up to 2,800 nits of global peak brightness, 10,000 nits locally and up to 500Hz multi-touch sampling. Other display technologies include DC dimming, up to 3,300Hz PWM dimming and gaming glare protection.

Under the hood, the iQOO 16 is expected to use Qualcomm’s next-generation Snapdragon flagship platform alongside iQOO’s Q4 gaming chip. The phone is also tipped to receive upgraded vibration motors and speakers for a more immersive gaming experience.

The iQOO 16 is likely to draw power from an 8,400mAh battery with support 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. The rear camera setup is expected to include a 50-megapixel main camera with a 1/1.3-inch sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera and a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera.

Storage options are tipped to include 12GB+256GB, 12GB+512GB, 16GB+512GB, and 16GB+1TB configurations. It will come preloaded with OriginOS 7-based Android 17 and will carry IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance.

Xiaomi confirms Xiaomi 18 Pro series launch with a new rear screen

Sep 15, 2026

Xiaomi today officially confirmed that the Xiaomi 18 Pro series will launch this month in China. In a teaser shared on Weibo, the company showed the rear display of the phone with the word “Generating” in the center.

Also ReadTop 5 upcoming smartphone launches in September 2026

This could suggest that the rear screen will support AI-generated content directly on the phone, rather than being limited to wallpapers, widgets, or simple shortcuts. The company further says that more details are coming tomorrow.

Xiaomi has some numbers to back up its decision to keep developing the rear screen feature. According to the company, users interacted with app cards on last year’s rear screen more than 4 million times per day, while more than 3.5 million wallpapers were added to the display every day.

The rear screen on the Xiaomi 17 Pro also gained more features after launch, including live wallpapers and interactive tools. The Xiaomi 18 Pro appears to be building on that idea rather than treating the rear display as a simple design feature.

Xiaomi 18 Pro keeps a familiar design

Nonetheless, the official teaser confirms the phone has a horizontal camera module with a Leica triple-camera setup. The rear display will cover most of the camera module, giving the Xiaomi 18 Pro a look that’s similar to its predecessor.

According to DCS, Xiaomi has made a few smaller changes to the design. The bezels around the rear display could be slightly thinner, while the front punch-hole camera may move to a different position. The phone is also said to feature a new physical button on the frame.

Earlier leaks also claimed that the rear screen could get larger and add a privacy mode, similar to the privacy display technology Samsung shipped with the Galaxy S26 Ultra.

With Xiaomi already confirming a launch this month and the rear screen now being teased, more details about the Xiaomi 18 Pro series should arrive soon.

Sep 15, 2026

Samsung’s latest Fan Edition phone is heading to India, and the company has now locked in the pricing, colors, and launch deals.

The Galaxy S26 FE will start at ₹79,999 for the only configuration confirmed so far: 8GB RAM + 256GB storage. It’ll be available in three colors: Pistachio, Blueberry, and Graphite. Sales kick off on September 18 through Samsung’s own online store, major e-commerce sites, and select retail outlets.

Also ReadTop 5 Alternatives for Samsung Galaxy S26 FE in 2026

Earlier retailer leaks had suggested a possible ₹69,999 price for a 128GB model alongside the ₹79,999 256GB version, which sparked talk that the lower-storage option might show up during festive sales. Officially, though, only the 256GB model is confirmed at launch.

Samsung is sweetening the deal with a few launch offers, but you can only pick one. There’s an upgrade bonus of up to ₹8,000 if you trade in an eligible older phone. Alternatively, you can go for up to 30 months of no-cost EMI through select NBFC partners (which also throws in an extra ₹3,000 upgrade bonus). A third option gives you ₹7,000 cashback on major bank cards or a 12-month no-cost bank EMI. Buying from Samsung’s e-store also unlocks an 18-month bank EMI facility.

On the specs side, the S26 FE packs a 6.7″ FHD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X display with 120Hz refresh rate and peak brightness up to 1,900 nits. It’s powered by the Exynos 2500 (built on a 3nm process) paired with 8GB of RAM. The rear cameras include a 50MP main sensor with OIS, a 12MP ultrawide, and an 8MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom and OIS. Up front there’s a 12MP selfie camera. Battery capacity is 4,900mAh, with 45W wired charging (Samsung claims it can reach about 69% in around 30 minutes with a compatible charger) and 15W wireless charging.

🔌 You’ll NeedThe S26 FE supports 45W fast charging, but Samsung doesn’t include a charger in the box — you’ll need a compatible one. Check Samsung 45W USB-C charger price on Amazon →

The phone measures 161.6 × 76.9 × 7.4 mm, weighs 193g, and carries an IP68 rating. It ships with One UI 9 based on Android 17, and Samsung is promising up to seven generations of OS upgrades plus seven years of security updates.

Citizen launches gorgeous green-dial Eco-Drive watch with atomic timekeeping in the US

By

-

Sep 15, 2026

Citizen has expanded its US lineup with the release of the AT8260-85X, a new stainless steel chronograph that slots into the brand’s Sport Luxury category. It launched in the UK last month and is now available in the US for $675 directly through the company’s website.

Design Details

Visually, the AT8260-85X is built around a 43mm silver-tone stainless steel case. It is a standard, relatively large footprint for a modern chronograph that should provide substantial wrist presence.

The watch features an emerald-green dial with three subdials, a date window at 3 o’clock, and an inner ring that lists cities for the world time function. Citizen has also equipped the watch with a sapphire crystal, which offers strong scratch resistance for everyday use.

The watch is paired with a matching stainless steel bracelet featuring structured links and a fold-over clasp with push buttons. For durability, it carries a water resistance rating of 100 meters (WR100 / 10 Bar), making it suitable for swimming and showering, though it is not intended for deep diving.

Inside, the watch runs on Citizen’s Caliber H800 movement with the brand’s Eco-Drive technology. The system converts both natural and artificial light into energy to keep the watch running, eliminating the need for regular battery replacements.

Also ReadBest Titanium Watches Under $500 in 2026

Additionally, the H800 features atomic timekeeping. The watch has a built-in radio receiver that picks up time signals from atomic clocks. This allows it to automatically correct the time and date overnight, meaning it will always be accurate down to the second without you having to manually adjust it. It also makes jumping between time zones relatively seamless using the world time function.

In related news, Citizen brings its premium GPS-syncing Attesa CC4084-83Z watch to the US and launches a rugged new Eco-Drive field watch with a military-inspired design.

Huawei Mate 90 series display, chip, and camera details leak before launch

-

Sep 15, 2026

We’ve been hearing about the Mate 90 series for months, thanks to steady streams of industry leaks. A new leak by tipster Digital Chat Station now adds more to what we know about the phones.

According to the insider, the higher-end Mate 90 models, likely the Mate 90 Pro and Pro Max, will use dual-layer OLED panels, with peak brightness reaching 10,000 nits. Meanwhile, the top RS Ultimate model could reportedly go even brighter than the other versions.

Huawei Mate 80 Pro Max Wind Edition — Huawei Mate 80 Pro

Dual-layer OLED uses two emissive layers stacked on top of each other. This allows the screen to reach higher brightness without using as much power as a single-layer panel at the same brightness level. It can also help improve the panel’s lifespan. In everyday use, the main benefit should be better visibility when using the phone outdoors in bright sunlight.

Also ReadTop 5 upcoming smartphone launches in September 2026

For comparison, the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max use standard LTPO OLED panels rather than a dual-layer design. If Huawei’s reported brightness figures are accurate, the Mate 90 series would likely be the brightest and better screen in any smartphone.

Huawei Mate 90 Pro Max to be powered by Kirin 9050 Pro

The chip lineup is also expected to be split across the different models. The mid-range version reportedly gets the N-1 chip, while the next model uses a slightly upgraded version of the same chip. Only the largest model is expected to get the newer N-generation chip, or the Kirin 9050 Pro.

As for battery, the capacity is reportedly set at either 6,600mAh or 6,800mAh, depending on the model. Both are considerably larger than the roughly 5,391mAh battery reportedly used in the iPhone 18 Pro Max, by comparison

Moreover, the camera setup is expected to include three sensors on every model, with one telephoto lens. The top-end model is said to add a 200MP periscope telephoto camera.

None of this is official yet, so treat the specifics as a starting point rather than a locked spec sheet. With the launch window reportedly set for September, confirmation shouldn’t be too far off.

Honor Magic 9 Pro Max makes Geekbench run with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro

By

Sep 15, 2026

The Honor Magic 9 series is launching on September 28 in China, and the teasers are in full swing. The company recently confirmed the full lineup along with its color and memory options. A Geekbench listing now confirms the processor powering the Honor Magic 9 Pro Max, the top-tier model in the series.

Also ReadHonor 600 Pro vs Magic 8 Pro: Which One Deserves Your Money?

A device carrying the model number WKL-AN20 has shown up in the benchmark’s database, and the specs line up with what’s already confirmed for the Pro Max.

The chip is listed under the name QTI SM8975, which is rumored to be the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro (or 8 Elite Extreme Gen 6). You get eight cores in total, led by two prime cores running at 5.01GHz, three performance cores at 4.03GHz, and three efficiency cores at 3.74GHz. The Adreno 850 handles graphics.

The device has 14.78GB of RAM, which rounds up to the 16GB tier Honor has already confirmed for this model, and the build information points to Android 17 running underneath MagicOS.

Honor Magic 9 Pro Max Geekbench scores

On Geekbench 6, the device pulled 3,448 points in the single-core test and 9,353 in multi-core. The single-core number is actually a step down from the Magic 8 Pro‘s global listing, which hit 3,664 with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 last year, though multi-core jumped by close to 1,700 points.

Honor Magic 9 Pro Max Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 Pro Geekbench

However, pre-production software on a leaked listing rarely matches what you’ll get once the phone actually ships, so treat these numbers as a rough preview rather than a final word.

Also Read5 Best Snapdragon 8 Elite phones: Top picks for 2026

This isn’t the SM8975’s first appearance on Geekbench, either. The same chip already turned up on a Xiaomi 18 Pro Max listing, where it scored 3,582 in single-core and 12,247 in multi-core. That run was on Geekbench 7 rather than 6, so the figures aren’t directly comparable to Honor’s phone.

Sep 15, 2026

UGREEN launched its LinkStation eGPU dock with OCuLink and USB4 support last December. The dock was designed to let laptops and mini PCs use the power of a desktop graphics card. Now, UGREEN has introduced a new version with Thunderbolt 5, although it comes at a much higher price.

Also ReadThe 7 best Thunderbolt 5 docking stations to buy in 2026

Called the UGREEN LinkStation Pro, the new dock uses Thunderbolt 5 with speeds of up to 80Gbps, with up to 64Gbps dedicated to the graphics card. It also supports USB4, Thunderbolt 4, and Thunderbolt 3, so it can still work with older devices, although they won’t get the full bandwidth available with Thunderbolt 5.

Ugreen LinkStation Pro Launch Specs Price

UGREEN says the dock supports graphics cards from NVIDIA, AMD, and Intel. It can also work with the company’s NAS devices to improve Docker container performance when the two are used together. This could be useful with UGREEN’s NASync DXP GT series, which supports Docker for running apps and virtual machines.

850W power supply and 140W charging

The dock has three Thunderbolt 5 ports, with support for daisy-chaining other Thunderbolt 5 devices. This means you can connect additional accessories through the dock instead of running separate cables to your laptop.

As for power, it has a built-in 850W power supply with an 80 Plus Gold rating and ATX 3.1 support. There’s also a 12V-2×6 connector for newer RTX 40- and 50-series graphics cards that require it. The dock can deliver up to 140W to a connected laptop through USB Power Delivery 3.1.

The enclosure supports graphics cards up to 370mm long, enough for most full-size GPUs. The dock itself uses an aluminum chassis.

The new UGREEN Thunderbolt 5 eGPU dock costs 3,489 yuan, or around $520. The OCuLink/USB4 model costs 2,299 yuan (~ $340) in comparison.

UGREEN has not yet announced a release date or confirmed which regions will get the new dock.

The dial is protected by a double-curved sapphire crystal treated with a triple-layer anti-reflective coating, while the rear of the watch features an exhibition caseback to display the internal mechanics. Water resistance is rated at 50 meters, which is standard for everyday wear and light water exposure, but not intended for diving.

Internally, the watch is powered by a Swiss-made Landeron 24 GMT automatic movement. The self-winding mechanism operates at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4Hz) and contains 28 jewels. It provides a 40-hour power reserve and operates with an accuracy tolerance of +10 to -15 seconds per day.

🔌 You’ll NeedWith only a 40-hour power reserve, this automatic movement stops if left unworn — a watch winder keeps it ticking. Check automatic watch winder box price on Amazon →

Timex has paired it with a black and green 24-hour inner ring, which makes it easier to distinguish between day and night. You also get a date window at 3 o’clock, while the hour markers use Swiss LumiNova for better visibility in low-light conditions.

Timex is offering the Atelier GMT Première M1a in two configurations. The base $1,350 model includes a black NBR (Nitrile Butadiene Rubber) strap secured by a deployant clasp. For $1,450, the watch comes with a stainless steel bracelet featuring a butterfly deployant clasp.

Oppo is preparing to launch a new compact power bank in China. Called the Oppo 33W Pocket Charge Super Flash Charge Power Bank 10000 (yep, that’s the official name), it’s currently available for pre-order, with the official launch set for September 22.

As the name suggests, it has a 10,000mAh battery and supports charging speeds of up to 33W. The power bank weighs around 204g and measures 110.6 x 70.6 x 18.1mm, small enough to carry in a bag or jacket pocket. It will be available in two really good colors: Khaki Fragrance and Light Pink.

If you remember seeing the design, you’re not alone. The new power bank resembles the 120W SuperVOOC model that the company launched back in April.

The power bank has passed China’s 2026 new national standard certification, meaning it meets the country’s updated safety requirements for power banks.

It also supports ColorOS system-level interconnection. That is, users can check the power bank’s remaining battery, battery health, and real-time temperature directly from the supported Oppo phone.

For charging, the power bank has two USB-C output ports and one USB-A port, and it supports SUPERVOOC, USB PD, PPS, QC, and UFCS standards. Each port can deliver up to 33W when used on its own. When you use two ports at the same time, the total output drops to 5V/4A.

There is also an automatic low-current mode for smaller devices such as smartwatches, earbuds, and fitness trackers.

Oppo also includes a 0.2-meter charging cable in the box. The cable uses high-density braided material and has USB-C connectors on both ends. Its short length makes it easier to carry, while the quick-disassembly design means users can keep it attached to the power bank when heading out. The battery is rated at 37.0Wh, while its capacity is listed as 5200mAh at 5V/3A.

Sep 14, 2026

Vivo has launched two versions of the Vivo V80 Lite 5G, but neither has made it to the Indian market. Now, the brand is gearing up to launch the Vivo V80 in India. While the exact launch timeline is not known yet, the V80 is expected to bring several upgrades over the V70 series.

Vivo V80 could bring major AI camera upgrades

The Vivo V80 is tipped to feature an AI Creative Camera with more than 30 AI effects, giving users a wider range of options for modifying photos and creating social media-ready content. It is also expected to introduce Live Sticker Collage, which could let users combine images and stickers into more creative compositions directly on the phone. These additions would mark a notable step up from the V70 and V70 Elite in terms of AI-based imaging tools.

The phone is also expected to bring AI Diwali Portrait 2.0, an upgraded take on Vivo’s festive photography features. The company previously introduced AI Festive Portrait with the Vivo V60, and the newer version could offer more advanced ways to capture portraits during Diwali and other celebrations.

A 7,200mAh battery is another major upgrade tipped for the Vivo V80. If accurate, it would be the largest battery ever fitted to a V-Series smartphone and could provide up to two days of usage. The larger capacity could be particularly useful for users who spend extended periods shooting photos, editing content, streaming videos or gaming without easy access to a charger or power bank.

On the software front, the V80 is expected to debut with OriginOS 7 based on Android 17. This would bring Vivo’s latest software experience to the V-Series, alongside the company’s focus on smooth performance.

Apart from these upgrades, the V80 may bring along a 50-megapixel ZEISS telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom and 10x zoom in portrait mode. It is also expected to support 4K cinematic video recording.

Ugreen launches HiTune T8 earbuds with -55dB ANC, LDAC, AI tools & 50h battery life

-

Sep 14, 2026

Ugreen has introduced a new pair of budget wireless earbuds, the HiTune T8, currently available on JD.com for 179 yuan ($26). The release focuses on providing standard modern audio features, including active noise cancellation, high-resolution audio support, and built-in transcription tools, at a lower price point.

Ugreen HiTune T8 Specifications

The earbuds use a standard in-ear design and carry an IPX5 water resistance rating, meaning they can handle sweat or light rain. The earbuds and the charging case weigh 49.4g together, and the case measures 62 x 51.5 x 26.8mm. To help users find a proper fit, Ugreen includes five sets of silicone ear tips in the box.

For audio, the HiTune T8 rely on 12.4mm titanium-plated dynamic drivers. They support standard SBC and AAC codecs, as well as LDAC for higher-resolution audio streaming. Because of the LDAC support, they carry a Hi-Res Wireless Audio certification. Through the companion app, users can manually adjust the EQ settings and enable a spatial audio simulation feature.

The active noise cancellation system uses a six-microphone array to monitor outside ambient noise and the sound inside the ear canal. The system can reduce noise by up to -55dB and process frequencies up to 4,000Hz. The ANC has three levels, light, moderate, and deep, and can automatically switch between them based on your surroundings. The microphones also work with a directional algorithm to isolate your voice and block background noise during phone calls.

The earbuds connect via Bluetooth 6.0 and support multipoint connectivity, allowing you to link them to two devices at the same time and switch between them. Ugreen has also included a set of AI tools in the software. These include live recording transcription, meeting summaries, text generation, and real-time translation. The company says that these features are available out of the box and do not require a subscription.

Battery life is listed at up to 11 hours for the earbuds and 50 hours total with the 600mAh charging case. However, these numbers are based on listening at 50% volume with the AAC codec and ANC turned off. Using ANC or LDAC will lower the battery life. The case charges via USB-C, taking about two hours for a full charge, while a 10-minute quick charge provides roughly four hours of playback.

Apple just launched the iPhone 18 Pro models and its first foldable, while discontinuing the iPhone 17 Pro lineup. Some older models remain available, though their prices have gone up.

Here’s a look at the iPhones that make sense in 2026 after the latest changes, ranked from most recommended to least appealing based on common use cases.

1. iPhone 18 Pro

The iPhone 18 Pro is the clear step up if you want the latest flagship experience within a compact size. Compared with the iPhone 17 Pro, the biggest changes are the A20 Pro chip (built on a more efficient 2nm process), which delivers noticeably stronger sustained performance, and the new 48MP Fusion main camera with a variable aperture and second generation sensor-shift OIS.

That variable aperture mechanism lets the phone physically adjust between four stops (f/1.48, f/1.8, f/2.8 and f/4.0) for better low-light results and more natural depth control.

Battery life also improves (up to about 36 hours of video playback versus 33 on the 17 Pro), charging is faster, and storage now goes up to 2TB. The design stays familiar, with new color options. If you take a lot of photos and videos or simply want the most capable standard-size iPhone, this is the one to get.

2. Phone 18 Pro Max

The Pro Max follows the same upgrades as the regular 18 Pro, including the chipset, variable-aperture main camera, faster charging, and higher storage options. It also adds the larger display and the biggest battery jump in the lineup, with up to around 45 hours of video playback versus 39 on the 17 Pro Max.

It’s the better choice if you prefer the bigger screen for media, multitasking, or simply want maximum endurance. The extra size and battery make the upgrade more meaningful for heavy users than the standard Pro.

3. iPhone 17

The iPhone 17 remains one of the smartest buys for people who don’t need Pro-level cameras or the absolute latest chip. It still offers a 120Hz ProMotion display, all-day battery life, and access to upcoming basic iOS and Apple Intelligence features.

Prices have risen slightly, but it continues to deliver a modern, reliable experience at a more approachable cost than the new Pros.

4. Phone 16

The iPhone 16 is the budget-friendly option that still covers the basics extremely well. It has a bright display, a dual-camera setup that’s more than adequate for everyday photos and video, and solid performance for normal use.

5. iPhone Duo

The iPhone Duo is not for everyone. Beyond the $1,999 starting price (up to $3199) and the lack of a dedicated telephoto camera, it is Apple’s first-generation foldable. We only have Apple’s official claims about long-term hinge durability and reliability so far. It targets a fairly niche group that wants something sitting between a regular iPhone and an iPad.

If you already own both an iPhone and an iPad, you probably don’t need a Duo. But for enthusiasts who have been waiting years for Apple’s take on a foldable and are willing to pay for the experience, it is the most distinctive, and in many ways the most interesting iPhone of 2026.

6. Skip the iPhone 17e and iPhone Air

These models also saw recent price increases (the 17e from $599 to $699, and the Air from $999 to $1,099 in the US). Both are technically inferior to the regular iPhone 17 in key ways. The 17e lacks ProMotion (no 120Hz display), while the Air trails in battery life and charging speed.

If you specifically want a very slim phone, it’s better to wait for the expected second-generation iPhone Air, currently rumored for early 2027. For most buyers right now, the standard iPhone 17 is the stronger value.

Samsung quietly drops update support for two Galaxy watches

Sep 14, 2026

Samsung has published its September 2026 security update bulletin and two Galaxy watches are not in it: the Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic. That means the end of software support for these two Galaxy smartwatches.

Samsung promised the Galaxy Watch 4 series four generations of Wear OS upgrades, and they delivered. These are: Wear OS 3.5/One UI Watch 4.5, Wear OS 4/One UI 5 Watch, Wear OS 5/One UI 6 Watch, and the final Wear OS 6/One UI 8 Watch.

Now, the Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic have also stopped receiving security updates. The August 2026 security patch, which rolled out last month, was the final one for both models, and that will be it for the rest of their lives.

Even though Samsung won’t push any updates to the Watch 4 lineup, the devices will continue to work just fine. It’s just that they won’t receive the latest features and patches for the recently-discovered vulnerabilities.

If you’re still rocking the Galaxy Watch 4 or Watch 4 Classic, now is a good time to consider upgrading to a newer model. The latest Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 come with a revised update policy, promising One UI Watch and security updates for 5 years.

Huawei launches new smart door lock with 3D face recognition and triple-layer battery backup

Sep 14, 2026

Huawei has introduced a new smart home device in China, the Smart Door Lock 2 Pro Enjoy Edition. The lock is currently available for reservation on JD.com for 2,699 yuan ($402) and will begin shipping on September 23rd. The hardware focuses primarily on two areas: biometric entry methods and a redundant power system designed to prevent users from being locked out.

Huawei Smart Door Lock 2 Pro Enjoy Edition Specs

For access, the lock uses a 3D Time-of-Flight (ToF) sensor for facial recognition. The camera maps over 307,000 depth points on a user’s face, allowing the mechanism to authenticate and unlock in approximately 0.8 seconds. The camera is positioned to read faces of people between 1.2 and 2.0 meters tall, which accommodates both adults and children.

It also works at angles up to 30 degrees. To handle security, the system includes liveness detection to block attempts to open the door using photographs or 3D models. The software also uses a dynamic learning algorithm to adjust to gradual changes in a user’s appearance over time.

In addition to the face scanner, the front panel includes a 161-degree wide-angle camera that functions as a video doorbell. It uses AI for human detection and can record unusual activity outside the door. When someone rings the bell, the lock streams a live video feed to compatible HarmonyOS devices, such as Huawei smartphones or smart displays, and allows for two-way audio communication.

The power system is split into three separate tiers to avoid dead-battery lockouts. The primary power source is a 10,000mAh rechargeable lithium battery, which runs the camera and smart features for four to six months. When that battery needs to be removed for charging, the lock automatically switches to a secondary set of four AA batteries. These provide up to seven months of basic unlocking functions.

🔌 You’ll NeedThe lock’s backup power runs on four AA batteries, so a spare pack avoids a lockout when the main cell dies. Check AA lithium batteries price on Amazon →

If both of those power sources are completely drained, the lock has a physical red emergency button. Pressing this button triggers an internal, independent backup power supply. This reserve provides just enough electricity to let a user unlock the door using a fingerprint or a PIN code. Huawei says this emergency reserve can handle up to five activations over a six-month period.

On the physical side, the lock features a die-cast body, a C-grade lock cylinder, and an automatic locking mechanism that secures the door when closed. Huawei says that all biometric data, including face and fingerprint scans, is encrypted and stored locally on the device rather than being uploaded to the cloud.

In related news, Huawei Smart Screen S7 RGB 4K TVs in 55-inch, 65-inch, and 75-inch sizes are now available for pre-order in China.

Exclusive: Oppo F35, F35 Pro launching in October, design leaked ahead of launch

Sep 14, 2026

Oppo has gradually been teasing its F-series phones in India for the past few days. Now, we can confirm that the brand is indeed gearing up to launch the Oppo F35 series, comprising two models. We have also got exclusive images showing the colour variants of both phones, giving us an early look at their designs ahead of the official launch.

Oppo F35, F35 Pro color options revealed

Oppo is all set to launch the F35 series in India next month (October). The lineup will consist of the standard Oppo F35 and the higher-end Oppo F35 Pro.

Also ReadTop 5 upcoming smartphone launches in September 2026

The series will be offered in six colour options. The Oppo F35 Pro will be available in brown, orange and light blue, while the standard F35 will come in pink, silver and purple shades. The images also show Oppo experimenting with different design treatments across the lineup, including a floral-style pattern on one variant and a wave-like finish on another.

India will be the first market to receive the Oppo F35 series and other markets are also expected to receive it later.

Oppo F35 Pro could pack a 10,000mAh battery

Separately, a report from last month claimed that Oppo is preparing to launch the F35 Pro with an enormous 10,000mAh battery. The same report suggested that the phone could be priced at around Rs 45,000 in India.

We currently do not have independent confirmation of these specifications or the pricing, so they should be treated with caution. However, if the reported battery capacity is accurate, the F35 Pro could emerge as an interesting rival to the Poco X8 Power and Redmi Note 17 Pro Max, both of which are also expected to feature 10,000mAh batteries.

Sony LinkBuds Clip are not your usual earbuds, and that’s the point

By

Check Sony LinkBuds Clip Price on Amazon

-

Sep 14, 2026

Open-ear earbuds have become increasingly popular for people who want music and podcasts without disconnecting from the world around them. Sony takes a slightly different approach with the LinkBuds Clip, using a clip-style design that sits around the outer ear instead of sealing the ear canal. At Rs 24,990 in India at the time of writing, they are no longer quite as expensive as their launch price of Rs 18,990, but they still sit in premium territory. In the US, it is priced at $230.

The LinkBuds Clip come across as a well-executed pair of open earbuds with excellent awareness, strong calling performance, good battery life, and a comfortable design. However, their open construction also brings some unavoidable compromises, particularly with bass, noise isolation, and performance in loud environments. The bigger question is whether those compromises are acceptable at this price.

7Verdict

The Sony LinkBuds Clip are an interesting example of how good open-ear earbuds can be when the design is executed properly. They are comfortable for many users, sound good for their category, offer excellent environmental awareness, have strong microphones, and deliver dependable battery life. Their stylish design and useful software features add further appeal.

But they are not a replacement for conventional premium earbuds. The weak sub-bass, lack of isolation, limited performance in noisy places, finicky touch controls, and absence of wireless charging or LDAC are meaningful compromises. At the same time, many of these limitations are inherent to the open-ear design rather than shortcomings unique to the LinkBuds Clip, as traditional in-ear earbuds are specifically designed to seal the ear canal and deliver stronger isolation and bass.

The LinkBuds Clip still make the most sense for a specific type of user: someone who prioritizes comfort, awareness, and voice calls over deep bass and noise cancellation. If that describes you, the Clip are a compelling option. If you want one pair of earbuds that can handle everything from a quiet office to a noisy flight, Sony’s open-ear approach is likely to leave you wanting more.

1. Design and Display

Build and Feel

Both phones combine glass panels with aluminum frames and carry IP68 protection, giving them the durability expected from premium flagships. The Pixel 11 uses Gorilla Glass Victus 2, while the Xiaomi 17 gets Xiaomi Shield Glass globally and Dragon Crystal Glass in China. Both also offer ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanners. Xiaomi has the more distinctive hardware package, particularly with dual-SIM flexibility and an IR port, while Pixel keeps its feature set cleaner and more Google-focused.

Display Quality

The two phones use 6.3-inch 120Hz OLED-class displays, but Xiaomi offers considerably more display hardware. Its LTPO AMOLED panel supports Dolby Vision, HDR Vivid and HDR10+, reaches 3500 nits peak brightness and has a sharper 1220 x 2656 resolution. Pixel 11 offers HDR10+ and up to 3000 nits peak brightness with a 1080 x 2424 resolution. Xiaomi’s screen is the stronger choice for multimedia and outdoor visibility.

Also ReadGoogle Pixel 11 vs OnePlus 15: Specs, Camera, Battery & Price Compared

Verdict

Xiaomi 17 wins this section with its sharper LTPO display, higher peak brightness and broader HDR support. Pixel 11 remains excellent, but Xiaomi delivers more impressive display hardware.

2. Specifications Including Battery

Performance

The Xiaomi 17 has a major performance advantage with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, paired with up to 16GB RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. Pixel 11 uses Google’s Tensor G6 with 12GB RAM and UFS 4.x storage. The Tensor platform is designed around Google’s AI and software experiences, but Xiaomi’s newer Snapdragon silicon should be better suited to demanding gaming and sustained performance. For raw power, Xiaomi is the more compelling option.

Battery and Charging

Xiaomi also dominates the battery department. The global model packs a 6330mAh silicon-carbon battery with 100W wired and 50W wireless charging. Pixel 11 has a 4985mAh battery with 30W wired and 25W magnetic wireless charging. Google counters with bypass charging and Qi2.2 support, but Xiaomi’s combination of capacity and charging speed is far more practical for heavy users who want less time connected to a charger.

Verdict

Xiaomi 17 is the clear hardware winner. Its Snapdragon chip, larger battery, faster charging and broader memory configurations make it substantially better equipped for demanding everyday use.

3. Camera

Main and Secondary Lenses

Pixel 11 uses a 48MP main camera, 10.8MP 5x telephoto and 13MP ultrawide, combining optical reach with Google’s computational photography. Xiaomi 17 takes a more hardware-heavy approach with three 50MP sensors, including a larger 1/1.31-inch main sensor and a 2.6x telephoto. Leica optics, laser autofocus and advanced video formats add further versatility. Pixel may have the more established image-processing philosophy, but Xiaomi offers the more capable camera hardware overall.

Selfie Camera

The difference is particularly striking on the front. Pixel 11 has a 10.5MP ultrawide selfie camera with PDAF and supports 4K video at up to 60fps. Xiaomi 17 uses a 50MP wide selfie camera with PDAF, HDR10+ recording and 4K video at 60fps. For detailed selfies, video calls and front-facing content, Xiaomi’s sensor provides more hardware headroom. Pixel’s wider perspective remains useful for group selfies.

Verdict

Xiaomi 17 takes the camera win on hardware and versatility, with three 50MP rear sensors and a 50MP selfie camera. Pixel 11 remains attractive for computational photography fans.

4. Pricing

The Google Pixel 11 is priced around $900 / ₹90,000, while the Xiaomi 17 is priced around $1,000 / ₹90,000 based on the supplied approximate pricing. That makes the comparison unusual because the stated Indian prices are effectively identical despite Xiaomi offering substantially stronger hardware in several areas. Pixel’s 256GB and 512GB configurations both include 12GB RAM, while Xiaomi offers up to 1TB storage and 16GB RAM.

Is the price justified?

At around ₹90,000, Pixel 11 can justify its price through Google’s software experience, AI-focused features and promise of up to seven major Android updates. Xiaomi provides stronger specifications for the money, including a larger battery, 100W charging, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and a more advanced camera setup. Unless Pixel-specific software features are the priority, Xiaomi delivers greater hardware value.

Verdict

Xiaomi 17 offers better value at the stated price, delivering considerably more hardware for similar money. Pixel 11 makes more sense for buyers prioritizing Google’s software ecosystem and long-term updates.

Disclaimer:
Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, launch timing, and applicable taxes. Always check whether the listed price is for a China unit or a global/international variant when purchasing.

5. Conclusion

The Pixel 11’s biggest strengths are Google’s Tensor G6 platform, long software support, Pixel-focused computational photography and Qi2.2 magnetic wireless charging. Xiaomi 17 counters with Leica-branded optics, a 6330mAh silicon-carbon battery, 100W charging, an IR port, Wi-Fi 7 and up to 1TB storage. Xiaomi also offers a broader 50MP camera system and substantially stronger charging capabilities. Pixel’s seven major OS updates remain a meaningful advantage for long-term ownership, especially for users who value clean Android and Google’s AI ecosystem.

However, Xiaomi feels like the more complete hardware package, particularly for power users, photographers and gamers. At roughly the same stated Indian price, its advantages are difficult to overlook. Pixel remains the safer pick for software-first buyers, but Xiaomi offers considerably more specification headroom without compromising the flagship essentials.

Verdict

Xiaomi 17 is the overall winner, thanks to its stronger performance, superior display, larger battery, faster charging and more versatile camera hardware. Pixel 11 wins on software longevity, but Xiaomi delivers better overall value.
