OPPO is gearing up to introduce a new generation of fast charging technology with the unveiling of a 120W SUPERVOOC flash charger. This exciting development comes after the charger, sporting model number VCBBOAAH / A788-110110U-AU1, received certification from Australia’s Electrical Regulatory Authorities Council (ERAC).
120W SUPERVOOC Charger Certification Details
The certification details reveal that the VCBBOAAH charger, manufactured by Dongguan Aohai Technology, is capable of delivering a maximum output of 120W, achieved through an 11V 11A configuration. It also supports a wide range of input voltages, from 200-240V 50/60Hz, which aligns with Australia’s power supply specifications.
The voltage and frequency specifications of 200-240V 50/60Hz are compatible with many regions around the world, especially in Europe, Asia, Australia, and parts of Africa. However, it is not universally compatible across all regions. For example, the standard power supply in North America (the United States and Canada) is typically 120V at 60Hz. Similarly, Japan primarily uses 100V at either 50Hz or 60Hz, depending on the region.
OnePlus and OPPO’s recent devices like the OnePlus 12, OnePlus Ace 3, Find X7, and X7 Ultra all feature the 100W SUPERVOOC wired flash charging. The current 100W SUPERVOOC charger, available in China, operates at a maximum output of 11V 9.1A 100W under 200-240V voltage. This translates to a slight decrease in power output (11V 7.3A 80W) when used under 100-130V voltage conditions.
While the 120W charger hasn’t been officially linked to any specific devices yet. It is expected to play a crucial role in powering future OPPO, OnePlus smartphones, offering users a significant upgrade in charging speeds compared to current offerings.

We have the first look at the Samsung Galaxy Fold 6. Reliable tipster Onleaks has shared the leaked renders of the sixth-generation foldable from the South Korean brand. It is expected to arrive in the second half of this year at the Galaxy Unpacked event which usually happens in August. As per the leaked images, it seems that Samsung is redesigning its next-generation book-style foldable phone.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 points to boxier design
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold devices always had a slimmer frame. This is expected to change now as spotted in the leaked renders. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 sports a thick frame indicating that it may come with a boxier design. Dimension-wise, it is said to measure 153.5 x 132.5 x 6.1 mm when unfolded. The report compares the dimensions to the Z Fold 5 and concludes that the Fold 6 is 1.4 mm shorter and 2.6 mm wider. The next generation phone looks more like the Galaxy S24 Ultra.
The renders reveal a side-mounted fingerprint scanner embedded in the power button and volume rocker keys on the right side. The left edge has a SIM card tray. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 houses three microphones and a speaker grille at the top whereas the bottom has a USB-C port, another microphone, and a speaker grille.
The back panel is seen with a pill-shaped protruding module housing three vertically stacked camera sensors and an LED flash unit. The report adds that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 will have a 7.6-inch internal screen while the external display will measure 6.2 inches with a center-aligned punch-hole cutout.

Apple has apparently canned its plans for the highly anticipated electric car. Over the years, it was revealed that the brand was actively working on self driving technology and more for its very own Apple Car, but now it seems like AI (Artificial Intelligence) is behind the project being shut down.
Apple Car Canceled, Focus Shifts to AI
The news arrives from Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman. The Cupertino based giant’s ambitious plans had been facing troubles in past months, but work seemed to be going strong. But earlier this week, a surprise announcement shocked nearly 2,000 employees as the Chief Operating Officer Jeff Williams, and Vice President overlooking the project Kevin Lynch shared the news of the Apple Car being canceled.
People working on the car project who were a part of the SPG (Special Projects Group) are reportedly being shifted to another promising field, which is artificial intelligence. The timing of this announcement falls in line with the booming demand for AI and its massive growth in the past year. The report claims that the team will now be working on generative AI. The SPG consists of engineers and vehicle designers, so their fate is unclear but ay offs might be right around the corner.
If this report is true, then Project Titan is being buried in favor of AI. This isn’t completely surprising since the market for electric vehicles have lowered and automobile makers are currently facing issues in production and falling demand. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation at the moment, so take this report with a pinch of salt for now.

Honor is set to break new ground with its foray into two additional product categories alongside mainstream smartphones. In an exclusive interview with CNBC at the Mobile World Congress 2024 in Barcelona, George Zhao, CEO of Honor, revealed the company’s plans to introduce a vertical-folding style smartphone, likely named Honor Magic Flip, alongside a smart ring. This move signifies Honor’s ambition to challenge established players in the product category like Samsung.
Honor’s upcoming flip phone with some AI-powered functions
Honor Magic V2
The upcoming flip phone represents Honor’s foray into the flip foldable category, a style popularized by brands such as Samsung and Motorola. Zhao expressed confidence in the potential of foldable devices, highlighting the company’s positive outlook for the future. While Honor already boasts a range of foldable phones, including the Honor Magic V2, these devices come with a book-style form factor and are generally more expensive.
At the heart of Honor’s strategy lies the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) into its devices. Zhao emphasized the importance of AI in enhancing user interaction and experience. By leveraging AI capabilities, Honor aims to anticipate user needs and preferences, exemplified by features such as predictive actions based on user behavior. At MWC, the company showcased AI-powered functionalities, including eye-tracking technology on the Honor Magic 6 Pro handset and a chatbot built on Meta’s Llama 2 AI model.
Although not much about hardware specifications is known at this point, some earlier reports suggested that this vertical folding device could pack a 2,420mAh + 1,980mAh dual-cell battery, offering a total capacity of 4,500mAh. If true, this device will have the biggest battery among flip phones.
A smart ring from Honor that aims to utilize AI in health monitoring
In addition to its advancements in smartphones, Honor is expanding its product portfolio to include smart rings in its wearables. The company unveiled its first smart ring at MWC 2024, a move following Samsung’s debut of the Galaxy Ring. Zhao hinted at the potential synergy between its wearables and smartphones through its health app, envisioning seamless health monitoring facilitated by AI.
The incorporation of AI into health-focused devices opens avenues for personalized health insights and recommendations. Zhao underscored AI’s transformative potential in revolutionizing health applications, envisioning tailored training programs based on individual habits and health data. With the smart ring, Honor aims to empower users with actionable insights derived from AI-driven analysis, complementing its existing lineup of wearables and smartphones.

Nothing just recently offered us a first look at the Nothing Phone (2a), which is its upcoming mid range smartphone. The company decided to stick to its philosophy and retain the iconic design. Now, lifestyle promo pictures of the device have also been revealed, giving us an even better view of the Phone (2a). So let’s have a look.
Nothing Phone (2a) Lifestyle Photos
Previously, an official tweet from the company and e-commerce listings revealed some parts of the rear panel, which included the camera modules. But known tipster Roland Quandt shared what appears to be the official lifestyle shots of the Nothing Phone (2a), which could be a part of promo materials. Looking at the images, we can see the new device in two color options, namely Black and White.
In other words, the offering is the same as the flagship Phone (2). Similar to the previous two smartphones, the Phone (2a) retains the Glyph LED lighting as well, but this time it is more modest than its predecessors. Internal components like screws and rubber cables are still in clear view and the back features a transparent glass panel. The dual cameras are situated more in the middle this time around and are horizontally aligned.
The volume rockers can be seen on the left side, while the power button is likely on the right. Based on what we know so far, the Nothing Phone (2a) is set to be announced on March 5. It is expected to sport a tall 6.7-inch OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and Full HD+ resolution. Under the hood, it could be equipped with Dimensity 7200 Pro SoC. The rear cameras will consist of a 50-megapixel primary and an 8-megapixel ultra wide-angle sensor.
In the world of phone leaks, it’s crucial to get things right. We recently talked about the Polestar Phone and thought it was a Meizu 20 Infinity in disguise. It looks like GSMChina made a mistake and published an apology blog. The Polestar Phone is actually a Meizu 21 Pro and in this article, we want to clarify some things.
We actually first met the Polestar Phone back in November. At the time Meizu had registered it as the Meizu 21 Pro, but we didn’t know all the technical details yet. The surprise came when we learned about the Polestar Phone just two days before Meizu officially launched the 21 Pro. The model we thought was the Polestar Phone two weeks ago turned out to be the satellite communication version of the Meizu 20 Infinity.
Polestar Phone
The Polestar Phone has the model number “M481S“. GSMChina has learned that this number is actually associated with the Meizu 21 Pro, not the Meizu 20 Infinity. Thanks to a recent update from the Geely team, we now have a clear knowledge of the correct model relationship. Let’s make things right by understanding the correct model numbers.
Meizu 20 Infinity Satellite Communication Version
In the first report, it was mistakenly said that the model number “M392S” was the Polestar Phone. After digging deeper, we learned that this model number actually belongs to the satellite communication version of the Meizu 20 Infinity, not the Polestar Phone.
At the end of last month, it was revealed that Itel will soon launch three P series smartphones in India. Following that, the company only announced two phones, namely Itel P55 and Itel P55 Plus.
Today, thanks to Yash (@i_hsay), we have learned that the brand also unveiled the third device on the same day. But for some reason, this handset called Itel P55T is still not being promoted by the company online.
Itel P55T Specifications
The Itel P55T resembles an iPhone Pro. It is the world’s first smartphone with Android 14 Go Edition.
The device sports a 6.6-inch centered punch-hole display. The LCD panel offers a resolution of 1612 x 720 pixels (HD+), 267 PPI, and a 90Hz refresh rate.
The handset is powered by a Unisoc T606 chip. The SoC is paired with LPDDR4x RAM and UFS 2.2 storage.
Though the phone seems to have three cameras on the rear, it only has two and only one of them is usable. It actually houses a 50MP primary sensor paired with an AI sensor and a ring LED light. On the front, there’s an 8MP snapper.
The smartphone comes with dual SIM, 4G, dual-band WiFi, Bluetooth 5.0, GNSS, and USB Type-C. It also has a 3.5mm headphone jack, a MicroSD card slot, and a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.
Last but not least, it is backed by a 6,000mAh battery and supports 18W wired charging.
Itel P55T Price in India
The Itel P55T is priced at ₹8,199 (~$100) in India for the sole 4GB + 128GB memory variant. It arrives in Brilliant Gold, Aurora Blue, and Moonlight Black color options.
On its official website, Itel says that the product is exclusive to Amazon. However, the phone is up for sale on Flipkart in gold and black colors.
