Oppo has confirmed that the Find N6 foldable smartphone will debut in China on March 17. Ahead of the launch, the company has released its first teaser video, revealing the phone’s design and colour options. The Find N6 is also expected to address one of the biggest concerns with foldable devices: the visible crease on the inner display.

Oppo aims to minimize foldable display crease

Oppo says the Oppo Find N6 has been designed with a new engineering approach that combines a titanium alloy hinge with a special memory glass layer. Together, these components aim to reduce the crease and maintain a flatter display surface even after prolonged use.

The hinge structure reportedly distributes physical stress more effectively when the phone is folded or unfolded. Meanwhile, the memory glass is said to restore the display’s flatness after opening the device. Oppo suggests this design could significantly reduce the crease visibility compared to earlier foldable phones.

The Find N6 will support a new Oppo AI stylus, which is expected to expand the functionality of the large internal display. The stylus is intended to make writing, note-taking and creative tasks easier on the foldable screen.

The official pre-orders page confirms that the Find N6 will come in three shades, such as Golden Orange, Original Titanium, and Deep Black. It will be available in three options: 12GB+256GB, 16GB+512GB, and 16GB+1TB, which will have support for satellite connectivity.

Leaked specifications suggest the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5-powered foldable phone could feature an 8.12-inch inner display and a 6.62-inch cover screen. The device may run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 (7-core) processor and include a battery close to 6000mAh with fast charging support. The rear camera system is expected to include a 200-megapixel Samsung HP5 primary sensor, accompanied by a pair of 50-megapixel Samsung JN5 sensors for ultra-wide and periscope telephoto cameras.

Lenovo’s Legion Go Fold Concept Turns a Handheld Gaming PC Into an 11.6-Inch Gaming Screen

Mar 9, 2026

At the recently held MWC 2026 event, Lenovo revealed the Legion Go Fold Concept, a new idea for a portable gaming PC that uses a foldable screen to make the device more flexible. The concept builds on Lenovo’s Legion Go handheld series and focuses on giving players different ways to game depending on where they are.

The device uses a POLED display that can change size. When folded, the screen measures 7.7 inches and works like a normal handheld gaming device with detachable controllers attached to both sides. This setup is meant for situations where space is limited, such as gaming while traveling or during short breaks.

When unfolded, the display expands to 11.6 inches. This larger screen allows the device to support several usage modes that go beyond standard handheld gaming.

In Standard Handheld Mode, the device remains folded with the 7.7-inch display and controllers attached. This provides a familiar handheld gaming experience similar to other portable gaming PCs.

The device also supports Vertical Split-Screen Mode. In this mode, the screen unfolds upward to create two stacked displays. A player can run a game on one part of the screen while using the other part to watch a walkthrough, stream content, or check other information while playing.

Another option is Horizon Full Screen Mode. Here, the display is unfolded and rotated by 90 degrees. The controllers can be attached again to use the full 11.6-inch screen for gaming. The larger display gives players more viewing space, which can improve the experience in games that benefit from a bigger screen.

The fourth option is Expanded Desktop Mode. Lenovo includes a wireless keyboard with a built-in touchpad that lets the device function like a compact laptop. Users can play games with keyboard controls, browse media, stream content, or complete work tasks. The right controller can also act as a vertical mouse, similar to the feature used in other Legion Go devices.

The Legion Go Fold Concept runs on the Intel Core Ultra 7 258V processor and includes 32GB of RAM. This hardware is designed to handle modern PC games and multitasking. The device uses a 48Wh battery, which Lenovo says helps maintain longer gaming sessions while keeping power usage efficient.

The detachable controllers also add more features. The right controller includes a small built-in screen that works as a touchpad. It can also display performance metrics, adjust system settings, and act as a customizable hotkey panel.

As with many concept devices shown at technology events, it is unclear whether Lenovo plans to turn the Legion Go Fold into a commercial product. Foldable displays in gaming handhelds are still expensive and complicated to manufacture, which could make the device costly for consumers. However, Lenovo has previously turned experimental Legion ideas into real products, so elements of this concept could eventually appear in future Legion Go devices even if the exact design never reaches mass production.

Xiaomi 18 Ultra Rumored to Launch in December With New Quad-Camera Setup

Mar 9, 2026

New leaks suggest Xiaomi is preparing to launch the Xiaomi 18 Ultra earlier than expected this year. According to information shared by well-known tipster Smart Pikachu, the company may keep the same release pattern it used for the Xiaomi 17 Ultra. Instead of launching early in the year like older Ultra models, the upcoming device could debut in China toward the end of the year, possibly around December.

The camera system could see a major change. Xiaomi is reportedly testing a quad-camera setup for the Xiaomi 18 Ultra. This would be a shift from the Xiaomi 17 Ultra (review), which moved away from a traditional four-camera layout and introduced a mechanical zoom solution instead. If the latest leak is accurate, Xiaomi may return to a four-lens configuration to offer more focal length options and improve overall camera versatility.

Before the 17 Ultra adopted its triple-camera arrangement, Xiaomi used a quad-camera system on the Xiaomi 15 Ultra. That setup included a 50MP primary wide-angle camera, a 50MP telephoto lens, a 200MP periscope telephoto sensor, and a 50MP ultrawide camera. If Xiaomi does not introduce a completely new camera concept this year, a similar configuration could return on the Xiaomi 18 Ultra.

To understand the direction Xiaomi may take with the 18 Ultra, it helps to look at the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, which launched in China about three months ago, in December. The phone features a 6.9-inch 2K LTPO OLED display with a refresh rate ranging from 1Hz to 120Hz. It runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor paired with up to 16GB RAM and up to 1TB storage.

The device carries a 6,000mAh silicon-carbon battery with support for 90W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. It also includes an IP68 rating for dust and water resistance.

Photography was the major focus. The Xiaomi 17 Ultra introduced a 50MP primary camera with a 1-inch sensor and f/1.67 aperture, along with a 50MP ultra-wide camera offering a 115-degree field of view. The telephoto system uses a 200MP sensor paired with a Leica APO zoom lens that provides continuous optical zoom from 3.2x to 4.3x.

With the Xiaomi 18 Ultra, leaks indicate Xiaomi may expand the camera system again while also upgrading the chipset and battery capacity. More details about the additional lens and final hardware are expected to surface in the coming months.

Mar 8, 2026

iQOO has officially teased the launch of its upcoming smartphone, the iQOO Z11. The company confirmed that the device will feature a 165Hz gaming display and a massive 9020mAh battery, the largest ever in the brand’s history. iQOO product manager Xing Cheng announced these details during the company’s 7th anniversary event.

The iQOO Z11 is expected to launch later this month. Xing Cheng expressed confidence in the phone’s appeal, stating that it will become a top choice in the 2,000-3,000 ($290-434) yuan price range. In this price range, the Z11 may compete with devices such as the Realme P4 Power, which recently debuted with a 10,001mAh battery in the same category.

The iQOO Z11 recently appeared in Malaysia’s SIRIM certification database under the model number I2512. This listing confirms the device as the iQOO Z11 5G. The same model number also surfaced earlier in the IMEI database.

In China, two Vivo devices with model numbers V2551A and V2547A appeared on the 3C certification platform, with one of them believed to be the iQOO Z11. The listing showed support for 90W fast charging, which suggests that the phone will include a 90W charging adapter.

Rumors suggest that the iQOO Z11 will use a 1.5K LTPS display panel. The exact size of the screen is not confirmed. The phone is also rumored to run on a mid-range processor, but details about the chipset remain unclear. For reference, its predecessor, the iQOO Z10, launched with the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor.

Alongside the Z11, iQOO is also preparing to launch the iQOO Z11x, which is scheduled to debut in India on March 12 with a massive 7,200mAh battery.

DJI Avata 360 could make 360 FPV drones much more affordable, suggests new leak

By

Debasish

Mar 8, 2026

DJI may soon return to the spotlight in the FPV drone space, and early leaks suggest the company is preparing something a little different this time. If the latest information proves accurate, the next Avata model could make 360-degree aerial capture far more accessible than it has been so far.

Details about the rumored drone, widely expected to be called the DJI Avata 360, have surfaced through several leaks from known DJI watcher Jasper Ellens. According to the leak, the drone-only version could start around $499, which would put it below the current Avata 2, typically priced at around $600. That alone would make it one of the more affordable entries into the growing 360 FPV category, where competitors such as the Insta360 Antigravity A1 sit at noticeably higher prices.

Ellens has also said that leaked promotional images and packaging circulating online appear to be genuine. Those images reveal a few practical features as well. For example, the drone is expected to support replaceable lenses, with a two-pack reportedly costing around $50 or €50. The lenses appear to use a simple screw-in design, which should make quick replacements possible after scratches or minor crashes.

Battery pricing may also be more approachable. Spare Intelligent Flight Batteries are rumored to cost about $70 or €70, each with a 38.6 Wh capacity. That would actually be larger than the 31.8 Wh battery used in the Avata 2, which could translate to longer sessions in the air.

As for the drone itself, the design shown in leaks suggests a compact body with cinewhoop-style propeller guards, similar to earlier Avata models. The key difference would be the addition of 360-degree imaging, possibly through a dual-camera setup.

DJI has already started teasing something new on social media, hinting at “an all-new dimension of aerial creativity.” According to Ellens, another teaser is expected on March 12, with more promotional material likely to follow.

Mar 8, 2026

AnTuTu has released its top 10 Android sub-flagship smartphone performance rankings for February 2026, based on benchmark data collected using AnTuTu Benchmark V11 between February 1 and February 28. The list shows the best-performing upper mid-range smartphones based on their average benchmark scores.

February did not see many major launches in this segment, but a few new devices still made their way into the ranking. The most notable additions are the Honor Power 2, Redmi Turbo 5, and the OPPO Reno 15 series.

Honor-Power-2-Launch-Specs-Price — Honor Power 2

The Honor Power 2 ranks first with an average AnTuTu score of 2,201,537. The phone is powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8500 Elite processor. This chipset continues the design used in its predecessor and uses an all Cortex-A725 core architecture. MediaTek has also increased the operating frequency compared to the previous generation, which helps improve overall performance.

With this configuration, the Honor Power 2 leads the February ranking and stands out as the fastest sub-flagship Android smartphone in the latest benchmark results.

OPPO Reno15 Pro Mini Crystal Pink — OPPO Reno 15 Pro

Second place goes to the OPPO Reno 15 Pro, which recorded an average score of 2,113,019. The device is powered by the Dimensity 8400-Max processor. Close behind it is the OPPO Reno 15, which ranks third with an average score of 2,102,547 and uses the same Dimensity 8400-Max chipset.

Another new entry is the Redmi Turbo 5, which takes the fourth position. The phone runs on the Dimensity 8500 Ultra processor and achieved an average score of 2,087,575.

The rest of the ranking includes earlier releases that are still competitive in this segment. The OPPO Reno 14 Pro ranks fifth with a score of 2,080,957. The iQOO Z10 Turbo is sixth with 1,995,751, followed by the Redmi Turbo 4 in seventh with 1,964,441.

The iQOO 16 and OnePlus 16 could both jump to 200MP main cameras

By

Rajesh Regmi

Mar 8, 2026

The iQOO 16 may be starting to surface in the rumor mill. Last week, we reported that the device could launch at a higher price than its predecessor. Now, a new report from China suggests the upcoming flagship might also get a camera upgrade on the back.

According to tipster Smart Pikachu on Weibo, the iQOO 16 is currently being tested with a 200-megapixel main camera. For comparison, the iQOO 15 features a 50-megapixel primary sensor. The upcoming phone is still said to retain a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera, similar to its predecessor.

The tipster also claims that only the iQOO 16 is currently in testing, while the successor to the iQOO 15 Ultra has yet to appear in testing.

OnePlus 16 could also get a 200MP main lens

Interestingly, the same tipster says the OnePlus 16 could feature a similar camera setup. That is, a 200-megapixel main sensor paired with a 50-megapixel periscope lens. The OnePlus 15, by comparison, uses 50-megapixel sensors for both its main and periscope cameras.

Back to the iQOO 16, the phone is also tipped to upgrade its display resolution from 1.5K to 2K.

There’s currently no word on the rest of the phone’s specifications. As a performance-focused flagship, however, it could feature the next-generation Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 processor along with a large battery.

As we mentioned earlier, a price increase also seems plausible. A previous report suggests that upcoming flagship phones that will use 2nm chips could start at around 5,000 yuan (roughly $725).

Since the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 is rumored to be built on a 2nm process, the iQOO 16 could fall into that category. For comparison, the iQOO 15 launched at 4,199 yuan.

For now, we’ll have to wait for more leaks to shed light on the iQOO 16’s internals.

Nothing Phone (4a) Pro vs OnePlus 15: Similar price, but who is the winner?

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

Mar 8, 2026

It’s been a few days since Nothing officially unveiled the Phone (4a) Pro globally. The new phone is a fresh take from a design-focused brand on delivering something different while still maintaining strong value for its price.

Its closest competitor is the OnePlus 15R. Both phones offer large OLED displays, fast processors, and cameras built around 50MP sensors. But clearly, each has its own philosophy, merits, and drawbacks.

Nothing continues to offer a distinctive design and signature LED module. Whereas the OnePlus 15R is all about raw performance. So let’s see how the two phones differ to make your buying decision easier.

Prev Next

1. Design

Nothing has built its identity around unusual design choices, and the Phone (4a) Pro continues that trend. It has a transparent back with a Glyph Matrix on the left of a now wide camera module.

For those unaware, Glyph Matrix is a circular LED display made up of 137 individually addressable LEDs. It can reach up to 3,000 nits of brightness and can show things like a stopwatch, a timer, or the weather without having to wake the screen every now and then.

Beyond aesthetics, though, the device is fairly typical in terms of size. It measures 163.7 x 76.6 x 8 mm and weighs 210 grams. The phone is also rated IP65 for dust and water resistance and has Gorilla Glass 7i protection on the front, an aluminum frame, and a glass back.

The OnePlus 15R also has a glass front protected by Gorilla Glass 7i and an aluminum alloy frame. On the back, you can choose from either a glass finish or a fiber-reinforced plastic option, depending on the color options.

Where the OnePlus phone stands out is in durability. It carries a much stronger IP68 and IP69K rating, meaning it can withstand high-pressure water jets and immersion up to 1.5 meters for 30 minutes.

The design language is also very different. It doesn’t have flashy elements, but rather an understated look with a flush back and a raised metallic camera module that resembles the flagship OnePlus 15. The phone measures 8.1 mm thick and weighs 213 grams.

2. Display

Here, the Nothing Phone (4a) Pro features a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution, 144Hz refresh rate, and 3500 nits of peak brightness. The panel also supports 2160Hz PWM dimming to reduce flicker at lower brightness levels.

Nothing’s display is also HDR10+ certified, and can show Ultra HDR images with up to one billion colors.

Interestingly, the OnePlus 15R has a 6.83-inch AMOLED display, but it refreshes at 165Hz. This screen is also PWM capable, HDR 10+, and Dolby Vision certified with a peak brightness of 3600 nits.

But OnePlus has one extra gaming-focused feature. It features a dedicated chip that enables up to a 3200Hz touch sampling rate. This may not matter for most users, but it is definitely useful for competitive mobile games.

3. Performance

The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor built on a 4nm process. It is paired with either 8GB or 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and up to 256GB of UFS 3.1 storage. To keep temperatures under control, Nothing has built in a vapor chamber cooling system measuring around 5,300 mm².

The OnePlus 15R, meanwhile, packs a flagship-level chip. It runs on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, built on an efficient 3nm process. It’s a much more powerful processor that delivers performance close to what you’d expect in a flagship device.

4. Cameras

Nothing’s edge for the Phone (4a) Pro probably is in the camera. It features a triple rear camera setup led by a 50-megapixel Sony Lytia 700C with optical image stabilization. There is also a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto camera with 3.5x optical zoom, which can extend to around 7x using in-sensor zoom techniques.

The third camera is an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens with a 120-degree field of view. It can record up to 4K videos at 30 frames per second.

The OnePlus 15R has a simpler camera setup headlined by a 50MP-megapixel Sony IMX906 main sensor with optical image stabilization. It pairs with an 8-megapixel ultrawide lens. There is no dedicated telephoto camera here, so zoom relies on digital cropping.

However, OnePlus does offer more advanced video capabilities, including 4K recording at up to 120 frames per second. Both phones use a 32-megapixel front camera for selfies. OnePlus supports autofocus and 4K recording from the front, while Nothing limits it to 1080p at 30fps.

5. Battery and charging

OnePlus 15R wins here with a large 7,400mAh silicon-carbon battery. It supports 80W wired charging.

The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro uses a 5,080mAh battery for international models and a slightly larger 5,400mAh unit in India. Charging speeds reach up to 50W, and there is also a 7.5W reverse wired charging feature.

6. Price

The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro starts at around $500 globally, with higher configurations reaching about $600 depending on the market.

The OnePlus 15R launches in India starting at ₹47,999 for the 12GB + 256GB model, with the 512GB version priced higher.

That puts both phones in a similar price range, even though their focus is quite different.

7. Two phones with different priorities

The Nothing Phone (4a) Pro and the OnePlus 15R show how brands approach the upper midrange differently.

Nothing emphasizes design, LED lighting, and a flexible camera system with a periscope zoom lens. It’s a phone that tries to stand out visually while still offering solid everyday performance.

OnePlus, on the other hand, leans heavily into performance and battery capacity. With a flagship-level Snapdragon processor and a much larger battery, the 15R looks more like a performance-focused device.

In the end, the choice between the two depends on what matters more to users. A distinctive design and extra camera versatility, or stronger performance and longer battery life.

Oppo Find X10 Pro Max may arrive with three 200MP cameras on the rear

Rumors about the Oppo Find X10 series have been circulating for a while now. The lineup is expected to debut with three models: the Find X10, X10 Pro, and X10 Pro Max.

According to a new claim from tipster Digital Chat Station, one of those devices could feature an unusual camera setup. Three 200-megapixel sensors on the back!

Oppo Find X10 Pro Max could feature a 200MP main, telephoto, and ultrawide lens

The leak suggests that one of the cameras would be an ultra-wide lens using a 200-megapixel sensor measuring around 1/1.56 inches. That’s significantly larger than the sensors most smartphones currently use for ultra-wide cameras.

The blogger didn’t explicitly name the device, but their hinting emoji, along with the reactions from followers, suggest that the setup is intended for the high-end Oppo Find X10 Pro Max.

The same tipster previously claimed that Oppo is also testing a brand-new 200-megapixel sensor that’s even larger, reportedly around 1/1.3 inches.

That sensor is said to support technologies called 4×4 RMSC (Rearranged Pixel Color Information) and UFCC (Ultra Full Color Capture), which are designed to improve color accuracy and dynamic range. It’s also rumored to use an advanced manufacturing process aimed at improving overall image quality. This could be the main lens.

And even the telephoto unit is expected to use a 200-megapixel sensor, though details such as the sensor size and manufacturer remain unclear for now.

Beyond the cameras, the Find X10 lineup is rumored to be among the first devices powered by the upcoming MediaTek Dimensity 9600 chip.

None of these details has been officially confirmed by Oppo yet, but the leaks suggest the company could be experimenting with an unusually stacked camera system for its next flagship series. We’ll keep you posted as more information surfaces.

The Magic V6 will include a 64-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, paired with CIPA 6.5 image stabilization. That level of stabilization is designed to make handheld zoom shots easier to capture, especially at longer focal lengths, where small hand movements can easily blur images.

The camera system is backed by Honor’s AiMAGE color engine.

As for the display, Honor says the Magic V6 has an industry-first four-in-one coating technology designed to strengthen the outer screen while improving visibility.

According to Honor, the new coating improves drop resistance by up to 10 times, while also making the surface three times more wear-resistant and up to 15 times more resistant to scratches.

Mar 7, 2026

Xiaomi has finally begun rolling out the much-awaited HyperOS 3 update to Xiaomi 13 Lite users. This one is based on Android 15 and packs some exciting new features, along with plenty of upgrades throughout the system. Unfortunately, this is the last major HyperOS upgrade for the Xiaomi 13 Lite users.

The smartphone was launched in early 2023 with Android 12 out of the box. It received three Android OS updates since then, now running Android 15, and isn’t eligible for more OS upgrades. That means it will spend the rest of its life running Android 15. According to the official website, the Xiaomi 13 Lite will reach end of life in August 2026.

Coming to the HyperOS 3 update, it’s rolling out to Xiaomi 13 Lite users in multiple regions with the following firmware versions:

Xiaomi 13 Lite (Global): OS3.0.1.0.VLLMIXM
Xiaomi 13 Lite (EEA): OS3.0.2.0.VLLEUXM
Xiaomi 13 Lite (Turkey): OS3.0.1.0.VLLTRXM
Xiaomi 13 Lite (Taiwan): OS3.0.1.0.VLLTWXM
Xiaomi 13 Lite (Russia): OS3.0.1.0.VLLRUXM

If you have a Xiaomi 13 Lite, you should be able to upgrade to HyperOS 3 by navigating to Settings > My device and tapping the HyperOS logo at the top. If the update doesn’t appear, check again in a few days, as the rollout happens in batches and can take a few days to reach all the users.

While not as rich as the Android 16-based software, HyperOS 3 with Android 15 still delivers a wide array of useful upgrades throughout the system, along with many visual enhancements and new features. Fortunately, it includes the new Hyper Island, which provides easier access to information with multitasking capabilities.

The update also includes new icons, new battery and signal indicators, enhanced animations, and system-wide blur effects. HyperOS 3 further improves integration with Apple devices by supporting iPhone call/SMS forwarding and screen sharing with a MacBook.

HyperOS 3 also integrates new AI features, including AI writing in notes, AI voice translation and noise reduction for recordings, AI Dynamic Wallpapers, and AI Search and AI photo search in Gallery. The latest update also includes numerous under-the-hood changes to deliver up to 30% better performance.

EOL approaching for Xiaomi 13 Lite

HyperOS 3 is the final major upgrade for the Xiaomi 13 Lite, and it will soon run out of security patches as well. The official website says software support will end in August 2026. By that time, the Xiaomi 13 Lite may receive one or two security updates, but it won’t receive HyperOS 3.1 or HyperOS 4.0.

Even after reaching the end of life (EOL), the Xiaomi 13 Lite will continue to work fine, but it won’t have the fixes for the recently discovered security vulnerabilities, which puts your device at risk, especially if it contains critical data.

It’s best to upgrade to a newer model, which will not only receive the latest security patches but also the latest features and upgrades from HyperOS updates. If you’re wondering about the best upgrade options, this page lists all Xiaomi devices that promise 6 years of software updates.

ColorOS 16 update rollout to mid-range phones

ColorOS 16 rollout is in its final phase, with only a few devices left to receive the update. The list has now become even shorter as Oppo has released the update to three more mid-range smartphones: Oppo K13x, Oppo K12x, and Oppo Reno12 F.

As per the official announcement on the community page (1, 2, 3), the ColorOS 16 update for the Oppo K13x and Oppo K12x is rolling out in India, while the Oppo Reno12 F is receiving the update in Indonesia. The update will expand to other regions in the coming days and weeks.

Your Oppo phone must be running the required firmware version to be eligible for the ColorOS 16 update:

Oppo K13x: CPH2753_16.0.3.500(EX01)
Oppo K12x: CPH2667_16.0.3.500(EX01)
Oppo Reno12 F: CPH2687_16.0.3.501(EX01)

If your Oppo smartphone is on the list and you belong to a supported region, the update may be ready for installation. Go to Settings > System & update > Software update to check for available updates.

If you don’t see the update, apply for the Release Candidate to get it sooner. For this, go to Settings > System & update > Software update > Tap the top of the page > Tap the icon on the top right > Beta program > Release candidate > Apply Now. Then check for an update and hit the Download now button.

Keep in mind that ColorOS 16 is a major upgrade with a download size of a few gigabytes. So, you must make sufficient room on your device and charge it to at least 50% for a smooth upgrade to ColorOS 16. Don’t forget to back up important data just to stay on the safe side.

With three more Oppo devices now receiving the ColorOS 16 update, only a few devices are in the queue, including the Oppo Reno12 FS, Oppo Reno11 FS, and Oppo F31 5G. Oppo promises to release the update for those devices this month itself.

DxOMark ranking shows Pixel 10a struggling against Pixel 8a, iPhone 15

Mar 7, 2026

Google’s latest A-series phone, the Pixel 10a, is designed to deliver the familiar Pixel experience at a lower price. It brings the usual mix of clean Android, long software support, and Google’s AI-powered features. But when it comes to the camera, early testing suggests the improvements this year are fairly limited.

According to DxOMark’s camera evaluation, the Pixel 10a receives an overall score of 134 points, placing it 75th in the global ranking. The gain appears to come mostly from software adjustments rather than any major hardware change. In fact, the camera hardware remains largely the same.

The Pixel 10a continues to use a 48MP f/1.7 main camera, built around a 1/2.0-inch sensor. The 13MP f/2.2 ultrawide camera (1/3.1-inch) is also unchanged from the previous model. The Pixel 8a, for comparison, scored 136 points thanks in part to its larger 64MP (1/1.73-inch) primary sensor.

The limitations show up more clearly in difficult conditions. Low-light photos and videos tend to show visible noise, and the phone sometimes struggles with consistent exposure and white balance. Detail can drop quickly once the lighting gets worse.

Video performance also appears somewhat average. DxOMark observed limited fine detail in recordings and occasional autofocus hunting, which can make video capture less reliable when subjects are moving.

Zoom performance is another weak point. The Pixel 10a relies entirely on digital cropping from the main sensor. Unsurprisingly, this leads to a very low zoom score of just 25 points, while the best devices in this category reach scores close to 140.

Even the older iPhone 15 performs noticeably better with a 145-point camera score. Those who care more about low-light photography, zoom quality, or overall camera versatility may notice the compromises. In that sense, the Pixel 10a feels less like a major step forward and more like a small refinement of the previous model.
