Recent reports have claimed that the upcoming Vivo X300 Ultra will be the only phone with dual 200-megapixel cameras. However, a new leak that has surfaced suggests that Oppo has revised the Find X9 Ultra’s camera setup, and it is now tipped to feature dual 200-megapixel cameras.
Oppo Find X9 Ultra’s revised camera specs leaked
Oppo Find X9 Ultra’s new camera details emerge
According to a new leak shared by Digital Chat Station, the Find X9 Ultra is reportedly equipped with a dual 200-megapixel camera system, marking a first for the segment. The primary camera is described as a 200-megapixel super-large sensor with light intake claimed to surpass that of current one-inch class sensors. This suggests Oppo may be prioritizing sensor area efficiency and optics to improve real-world imaging, especially in challenging lighting conditions.
The leak further claims that the phone will include two periscope cameras. One is a 200-megapixel mid-range periscope telephoto designed for high-quality lossless zoom at moderate focal lengths.
The second is a dedicated ultra-long-range periscope offering 10x optical zoom, reportedly built around a 50-megapixel sensor. If accurate, this would make it the only smartphone camera system with native 10x optical zoom at this level, targeting both distant subjects and close-range photography without heavy digital cropping.
Earlier reports had suggested a more conventional setup, including a 200-megapixel Sony IMX09E main camera with optical image stabilisation, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide camera, and dual 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lenses. The new information, however, indicates that Oppo may have revised its imaging hardware significantly, focusing on native focal lengths stretching up to 230mm, with high-quality extensions reaching 460mm. This approach could allow consistent image quality across wide, mid-telephoto, and extreme zoom ranges.
Beyond cameras, the Find X9 Ultra is expected to be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. Other rumored features include an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor, ColorOS 16 based on Android 16, and a battery exceeding 7,000mAh with support for 80W wired charging and 50W wireless charging. It is expected to launch by Q1 2026 in China.

While some of the changes on the OnePlus 15R have raised questions, a new teardown video has revealed that some things are still solid. The company is sticking to a welcome aspect of its predecessor that reduces worry for anyone who dreads expensive and complicated phone repairs. So here are all the details.
OnePlus 15R teardown & repairability
According to a detailed teardown by PBKreviews on YouTube, the brand’s new value flagship phone has managed to earn a strong 8.5 out of 10 repairability score. In the video, the tech channel praised the Chinese brand for its smart engineering choices, like common Philips screws and modular camera parts that simplify disassembly. There are also other aspects, such as an easy-to-remove battery with pull tabs and accessible core components, that helped achieve the high repairability scores.
Although battery cables are underneath graphite film and copper tape, the overall process remains simpler than on many other devices. But it’s not all perfect here. The glass backplate still sticks via adhesive. So you’ll need careful heating to avoid cracking during removal. Screen replacements can be the hardest task, as one needs to disassemble multiple internal layers before the display flex cable becomes accessible.
OnePlus 15R Teardown
Overall, the OnePlus 15R teardown paints a picture of a smartphone that strikes a smart balance between modern build quality and repair-friendly design. Apart from the repairability, the teardown also offers us a proper look at the OnePlus 15R, showcasing its dual camera sensors, motherboard, and other key hardware.

Buying or building a new PC next year could become more expensive. New forecasts from IDC suggest 2026 may see noticeable price increases across the PC industry, driven largely by a renewed shortage of memory components.
At the center of the issue is what analysts describe as a new “memory supercycle.” Demand for DRAM and related components is rising sharply, fueled by AI servers, AI-capable PCs, and a wave of upgrades linked to Windows 10 reaching end of support. Supply, however, is struggling to keep up.
As per industry signals cited by IDC, memory prices have already been climbing, and further increases appear likely. Graphics cards, smartphones, and even gaming handhelds are all expected to suffer from this ongoing memory shortage and price hike.
Several major PC makers, including Lenovo, Dell, HP, Acer, and ASUS, have also reportedly warned of tougher market conditions. Some suppliers are said to be preparing price increases of around 15–20% from the second half of 2026, alongside revised supply contracts.
IDC expects global PC shipments to fall by about 4.9% in 2026. The decline could be steeper if memory shortages worsen. Larger OEMs may be better positioned, as they can leverage their scale to offer competitive, pre-built systems. Custom PC builders, by contrast, are likely to feel the impact more directly, with higher prices for individual components.
The situation could also affect the rollout of so-called AI PCs. Many AI features, including Microsoft’s Copilot+ requirements, depend on higher memory configurations. With supplies tight, some manufacturers may scale back the memory size.
With memory production increasingly focused on higher-margin AI servers, consumers may end up paying the price. For buyers considering an upgrade, earlier may be cheaper.

Galaxy Z Fold 7 deals are still live, so even if you missed the massive November holiday sales, the December discounts are still in effect. Samsung is offering $720 off its flagship foldable, with no trade-in required. That brings the 256 GB model to $1,399.99 and the 512 GB version down to $1,399.99.
You can still get an instant $1,000 discount on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 with an eligible trade-in, with the highest values going to devices like the Galaxy S25 Ultra or the Galaxy Z Fold. Trading in a Galaxy S25 nets you up to $600 off, while most other phones fall below $400 in credit, making the flat $400 no-trade offers a smarter play in many cases. Either route lets you shave a hundred off the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s price, and with the full $1,000 trade-in bonus, the phone can drop to as little as $999 across all four available colors.
The dual trade-in structure caps your max savings at two devices, which naturally raises the question of whether sacrificing something like a Galaxy S25 Ultra is worth it. For many upgraders, parting with a top-tier phone feels justified because the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is widely regarded as Samsung’s best foldable yet, combining refined hardware, thinner and lighter ergonomics, and a fundamentally improved camera system. Its slim profile and optimised form factor help it feel almost like a standard smartphone when folded, while still delivering the expansive inner display that makes the Fold line so compelling.
A newly filed lawsuit in the United States is drawing attention to the legal and ethical boundaries of artificial intelligence. As per reports, interactions with ChatGPT contributed to a fatal incident involving a mentally ill user.
The complaint was filed in San Francisco Superior Court and brought by the heirs of an 83-year-old woman. She was killed by her son, Stein-Erik Soelberg, before he died by suicide. Soelberg was a 56-year-old former technology manager from Connecticut, who reportedly suffered from severe paranoid delusions in the months leading up to the incident.
According to court filings, the plaintiffs argue that ChatGPT failed to respond appropriately to signs of mental illness during conversations with Soelberg. They claim the chatbot reinforced false beliefs rather than challenging them or directing the user toward professional help.
One example cited in the lawsuit involves Soelberg expressing fears that his mother was poisoning him. The AI allegedly responded in a way the plaintiffs describe as validating, including language such as “you’re not crazy,” instead of encouraging medical or psychiatric intervention. The lawsuit characterizes this behavior as sycophantic and argues that the model has a tendency to affirm users. Needless to say, it can become dangerous when interacting with individuals experiencing delusions.
At the heart of the case is a broader legal question: whether AI systems like ChatGPT should be treated as neutral platforms or as active creators of content. The plaintiffs contend that Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act—which generally shields online platforms from liability for user-generated content—should not apply, since ChatGPT generates its own responses rather than merely hosting third-party material.
If the court accepts that argument, it could have significant implications for the AI industry. A ruling against OpenAI may force companies to implement stricter safeguards, particularly around detecting signs of mental health crises and escalating responses when users appear delusional or at risk.
As the case proceeds, it is likely to become a reference point in ongoing discussions about AI safety, accountability, and the limits of automated assistance in sensitive real-world situations.

Chinese GPU maker Moore Threads made a major announcement this week at its MUSA 2025 Developer Conference. The company unveiled its new Huagang (or “Flowerpot”) architecture, which will power two new GPUs launching next year.
According to Moore Threads, the architecture features redesigned compute units that boost compute density by 50 percent and improve energy efficiency by about 10 percent. It also introduces a new instruction set, adds support for asynchronous programming, and improves thread scheduling efficiency, core ingredients for modern graphics and AI workloads.
Moore Threads Lushan and Huashan GPU
One of the GPUs built on this architecture is Lushan, which replaces Moore Threads’ aging MTT S80 and S90 graphics cards.
Moore Threads claims substantial performance gains across the board, including up to 15× better performance in AAA games, 50× stronger ray tracing, and 64× higher AI computing performance.
The company also promises significant improvements in geometry processing and texture fill rates, along with a roughly fourfold increase in memory capacity from 16GB to 64GB.
Beyond gaming, Moore Threads designed Lushan to handle professional workloads such as CAD and CAE software. The GPU also features a new “UniTE” unified rendering architecture with a dedicated AI hardware block.
The second GPU, Huashan, targets AI computing. The chip apparently uses a dual-chiplet design with 9 HBM modules, and Moore Threads directly compared it to NVIDIA’s Hopper and Blackwell GPUs.
The company claims Huashan’s floating-point performance (supports both FP4 and FP64) is close to NVIDIA’s Blackwell B200, with comparable total bandwidth and even stronger memory access capabilities. The GPU is scalable to over 100,000 units via MTLink 4.0 interconnect at 1314 GB/s.
Moore Threads says it plans to launch the first Lushan-based consumer graphics card in 2026, with Huashan products arriving around the same time.

The Honor Magic 8 lineup currently includes the Magic 8 Lite, Magic 8, and Magic 8 Pro. For a while now, rumors have hinted at a more compact addition to the family. But if a new leak is to be believed, Honor is not just working on one new Magic 8 phone, but three.
According to a new report from Weibo tipster Fixed Focus Digital, Honor is currently working on Honor Magic 8S, Magic 8 Air, and Magic 8 RSR.
The Magic 8S is likely the slim (or compact) model we’ve been hearing about. It’s said to run on MediaTek’s upcoming Dimensity 9500 chip and feature a 6.3-inch flat OLED display with 1.5K resolution and LTPO support.
The phone is also rumored to launch in four finishes, Feather White, Shadow Black, Light Orange, and Fairy Purple, and include a metal frame alongside an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint sensor.
Honor Magic 8 Air is a surprise
The Magic 8 Air is a new entrant in the lineup, and the reasoning is clear. Many brands are following the trend of slim phones after Apple released the iPhone Air. However, we currently know nothing specific about the Magic 8 Air.
That said, a previous report revealed that an upcoming Honor phone with a thickness in the 5–6mm range is in the works. It is said to feature a 6.31-inch display, a 200MP main camera paired with a telephoto lens on the rear, and a battery capacity of around 5,500mAh. While we can’t say for sure, this device could be the rumored Honor Magic 8 Air.
Adding to this, Fixed Focus Digital also claimed earlier today that Honor is working on a phone that looks “even more Apple-like” than the Honor 500 series. This suggests that Magic 8 Air could borrow design cues from iPhone Air, much like the Honor 500 already does.
Finally, there’s the Magic 8 RSR, which is the least surprising of the three. It’s expected to succeed last year’s Magic 7 RSR and, much like its predecessor, should closely mirror the Magic 8 Pro in terms of specs.
The leak reveals that Honor Magic 8 Air and Magic 8 RSR will launch in mid-to-late January.
Inphic has launched a new gaming mouse that is more about manufacturing than raw specs. The company’s latest model, called the IN10 (also referred to as IN103D) is a 3D-printed mouse that uses a photosensitive resin shell produced through a 3D printing process rather than traditional injection molding.
The most obvious result is the mouse’s biomimetic honeycomb structure. The shell is porous, with ventilation holes designed to improve airflow while keeping the overall weight down.
Inphic says different areas of the shell are tuned with varying levels of softness and hardness to maintain comfort and grip depending on where your hand rests. At around 72 grams, the mouse is also lightweight to work with.
High-end internals with tri-mode connectivity
Inside, the IN10 is built around a custom Inphic KP950B main control chip paired with PixArt’s PAW3950 optical sensor. The sensor supports a DPI range from 50 up to 30,000, adjustable through software.
Inphic has also opted for TTC Qinglong optical switches, rated for up to 100 million clicks, along with a TTC Qinglong Ice & Fire scroll wheel encoder. High-purity PTFE feet round out the hardware details.
Connectivity is another area where the IN10 tries to cover all bases. It supports tri-mode operation, including USB-C wired mode at up to 1,000Hz polling, 2.4GHz wireless with polling rates reaching 8,000Hz, and Bluetooth 5.0 for more casual or mobile use.
The mouse ships with a 1.8-meter braided paracord cable that includes a ferrite core, as well as an 8K nano wireless receiver. Power comes from a built-in 500mAh rechargeable battery.
On the software side, Inphic offers both web-based and desktop clients for adjusting DPI, polling rate, and other settings. Physically, the mouse measures 125 × 62 × 40 mm, suggesting a fairly standard right-handed shape.
Pricing and Availability
The 3D mouse retails at 423.3 yuan in China, which translates to some $60. You can purchase it via JD.com.
Until recently, I never took gaming chairs seriously. For years, I relied solely on typical office chairs, usually mesh-back models or faux leather types with basic adjustability. They did the job, but comfort was always a compromise, and none of them ever felt quite right for long sessions at the desk.
Then I got the DXRacer Martian (Non-Pro), and after using it for a month, I can confidently say it has changed my perception of what a well-built ergonomic chair can offer. This isn’t just a “gamer aesthetic” product. It’s a thoughtfully engineered piece of equipment that genuinely improved my daily comfort.
Setup Experience
Unboxing the chair was straightforward, although it’s definitely a two-person job because of the sheer weight. DXRacer wasn’t kidding when they built this like a tank. Once out of the box, assembly was relatively easy. The manual and clearly labeled components made the process smooth, and I appreciated how the electronics were plug-and-play. The battery module installs like a power tool battery, and all the wires are numbered, so there’s no confusion.
What stood out during the setup was how precise the construction felt. Everything aligned properly, no wobble, no loose-fitting screws, and the fit-and-finish was clearly a cut above the average.
Design and Materials
I went with the Black-Grey variant in size L. Visually, it strikes a nice balance between gaming and office chair styling. The branding is subtle, the silhouette is sleek, and the overall look is clean and professional enough to not look out of place in a studio or work-from-home setup. The materials feel premium. The EPU leatherette has a soft matte texture that avoids the sticky, plasticky feel you often get with cheaper PU chairs.
The chair is also incredibly heavy, close to 70 lbs, which I initially saw as a downside, but that weight translates into stability. It never creaks, wobbles, or shifts unintentionally. The powder-coated aluminum alloy base and steel frame give the Martian a sturdy, grounded feel. It’s clear this chair was built with longevity in mind.
Comfort and Daily Use
This is where the Martian really earned its keep. I’ve had back strain issues for over two years, and I was admittedly skeptical about how much a chair could help. But after using the Martian consistently for the past month, I noticed a significant reduction in my back discomfort, especially during long editing or writing sessions.
The cold-cure foam is on the firmer side, but not in a punishing way. It holds its shape and provides consistent support throughout the day. I never felt like I was sinking in or losing posture. In fact, it encouraged better posture without forcing it. Over time, the foam seems to soften slightly, but it never loses structure.
The seat base is wide and flat, which I appreciate because I tend to sit cross-legged occasionally. There are no aggressive side bolsters pinching my thighs like you find in some racing-style chairs. This open design contributes a lot to its day-to-day comfort.
Electric Recline and Lumbar Support
The motorized recline is something I initially thought would be a gimmick, but it’s probably one of my favorite features now. You just tap a button on the left side, and the backrest glides back silently to whatever angle you prefer (up to 135°). It’s not fast, but the motion is smooth and precise. This level of control is hard to achieve with mechanical levers.
Then there’s the smart air lumbar system. This is not a loose cushion or a stiff plastic plate. The Martian has two internal airbags that you can adjust in four directions using a small D-pad-style control placed on the right side.
I wasn’t sure how impactful this would be until I used it for a few days. Being able to fine-tune the lumbar depth and position to match the natural S-curve of my back made a noticeable difference. It adapts to my posture even when I shift slightly, which keeps my lower back supported throughout the day.
Headrest and Armrests
The magnetic memory foam headrest is another surprisingly great feature. No straps, no awkward adjustments. You just slide it up or down the backrest, and it clicks into place magnetically. It’s firm enough to provide proper support, and the vertical adjustment range is wide enough to accommodate my height comfortably (I’m around 5’7”).
As for the armrests, they’re 4D adjustable and have magnetic top plates, so you can swap them out in the future. The included pads are fairly standard, firm polyurethane, but they get the job done. I haven’t had any discomfort with them.
There is a slight wobble in the armrest mechanism, but it is minor and does not cause any discomfort. The armrests offer enough adjustability to easily position them where they feel comfortable, whether I am typing, gaming, or leaning back.
Battery and Charging
Initially, I was concerned about the idea of charging a chair. But in practice, it’s not an issue at all. The internal 5,000mAh battery lasts about two to three weeks on a single charge with light daily adjustments.
When it’s low, you can either plug it in using the retractable cable or remove the battery and charge it like a power bank. I’ve settled into a habit of charging it once every two weeks, similar to how I treat my wireless mouse.
One thing to be aware of: if the battery dies completely, you can’t adjust the recline or lumbar until it’s recharged. The chair still works as a static seat, but you lose the electric features until power is restored.
Real-World Fit and Limitations
For context, I use a fairly static desk setup with a non-adjustable monitor and a fixed-height desk. I did notice that even at its tallest setting, the chair sits just a bit lower than I’d like. If the gas lift had a slightly higher max extension, it would have helped me line up perfectly with my monitor height.
That said, this is something I have noticed across most premium gaming chairs, so it is not a deal-breaker. It’s just worth keeping in mind if you have a taller-than-average desk.
The other thing to note is that this chair isn’t made for horizontal lounging. The 135° recline is good for leaning back to watch something or relax, but it doesn’t go fully flat like some models that recline to 160° or more. If you’re the type who naps in your chair, this may feel a bit limited.
Martian Pro vs Non-Pro
One of our editors also had the chance to test and review the Martian Pro variant. The main differences come down to a few additional features in the Pro version: seat heating, cooling ventilation, and a built-in massage function.
The Non-Pro retains the same core strengths, electric recline, smart lumbar, and high-end materials, but skips the extra electronics that drain the battery faster or add potential failure points. If you’re after a cleaner, simpler experience that still feels futuristic, the Non-Pro is honestly the more practical choice. You can read our detailed Martian Pro review separately if you’re curious about how those additional features hold up.
Final Thoughts
Switching to the DXRacer Martian (Non-Pro) has been a surprisingly transformative experience. Coming from regular office chairs, I didn’t expect such a dramatic improvement in posture and comfort. The smart lumbar system alone justifies the price for me, given the relief it has brought to my back strain. The build quality is rock-solid, the materials feel premium, and the electric adjustments feel like a genuine step forward, not a gimmick.
It’s not a cheap chair, and it’s not without its quirks. The weight makes it hard to move, the battery needs occasional attention, and the recline range isn’t for loungers. But for someone who spends hours at a desk and values comfort, posture, and thoughtful ergonomics, the Martian Non-Pro checks nearly all the boxes.
Would I go back to a traditional chair after this? Honestly, no. Not unless it has the same kind of intelligent support and solid construction. The Martian has earned its place in my setup, not as a flashy gaming accessory, but as a tool that actually supports how I work and play.
Pricing and Availability
The DXRacer Martian (Non‑Pro) is priced at $659.00 and is available directly from DXRacer’s official website and select authorized retailers. Availability may vary depending on size and color variant.
