Google is gearing up to launch the Pixel 7 series of smartphones on October 6. The company has put out a teaser video of the Pixel 7 Pro showcasing its design from every angle.
Sleek, smooth, and sophisticated. 📱
The most refined design yet, #Pixel7 Pro is crafted with polished aluminum in three modern, elegant colors—Obsidian, Snow, and Hazel.
Design-wise, the device is quite similar to the Pixel 6 Pro, but it features a better-looking camera arrangement on the camera visor and an overall more polished and premium look.
Relatedly, Amazon has jumped the gun on the Pixel 7 series and has listed (now removed) the Pixel 7 device on its website with a $599 price tag. This was first brought to attention by M. Brandon Lee of This is Tech Today. Apparently, the device appeared on the Amazon US website when Lee searched for ‘B0BCQXXRJJ’.
This listing all but confirms that the earlier leaks about the Pixel 7 being priced at $599 were true. Going by this, we can also expect the Pixel 7 Pro to have a price tag of $899. It is worth noting that these are the same prices at which Google debuted the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro last year.
Other than the pricing, the specs of the devices also appear to be quite similar to the last generation devices, with a few improvements here and there. Google is most likely focusing on a more stable software experience this time around, as the constant bugs in the Pixel 6 series were the only drawback of those devices.

The United States-based audio product manufacturer Skullcandy is known for its products aimed at music lovers. The brand has now launched a new line of gaming headphones that come with functional and convenient features like detachable boom mics, onboard physical controls, and memory foam ear cushions.
The lineup currently consists of three headphones-SLYR, SLYR Pro, and PLYR. So let’s check them out in detail.
Skullcandy SLYR
The Skullcandy SLYR is a multi-platform wired gaming headset and the entry-level model in the lineup. It features Skullcandy’s Supreme Sound technology for “premium in-game audio depth” and comes with a bi-directional removable boom microphone for chatting with your friends or communicating in-game. The onboard controls include a mic mute button and a volume button. The headset is designed with lightweight materials and memory foam to maximize comfort during long gaming sessions.
Skullcandy SLYR Pro
The SLYR Pro model is also a multi-platform wired headset that includes all the comfort features of the SLYR headphones and adds some new features like Skullcandy’s more advanced audio processing technology. This includes Skullcandy’s Clear Voice Smart Mic, which utilizes AI to cancel out distracting background noises like keyboard clicks and Enhanced Sound Perception, which adjusts audio levels based on a hearing test and your preferences. These technologies are powered by an inbuilt battery that can run independently for up to 24 hours on a single charge.
Skullcandy PLYR
The Skullcandy PLYR is the flagship headset of the lineup. With the help of Bluetooth 5.2 technology, this gaming headset can be used in both wireless and wired modes, allowing you to play games or listen to music while you’re on the road and connect to your home computer at the same time. The same audio processing tools found in the SLYR Pro will also be available to you here. The PLYR and SLYR Pro both have built-in Tile Finding technology that enables you to “ring” the headsets with the Tile app if you ever misplace them.
Price & availability
The SLYR headset has a price tag of $59.99 and comes in three different colorways: Black DigiHype, Green DigiHype, and Blue DigiHype. On the other hand, the SLYR Pro comes in the same colorways as the base version with a price of $99.99. Lastly, the flagship PLYR Wireless Gaming Headset costs $129.99 and only comes in the black color option.
The base model is available for pre-order via the Skullcandy online store and Amazon, whereas the other two models will be available in October.
Earlier this week, a leak hinted that Xiaomi could launch the upcoming Xiaomi 12T and 12T Pro on October 4. Now, the brand has announced that it will be hosting a global launch event on October 4th. At this event, we will likely see the Xiaomi 12T series make its debut. So let’s take a look at what’s known so far about the devices.
Renders of the Xiaomi 12T Pro and Xiaomi 12T have already surfaced online, revealing that they feature a similar design. The 12T Pro is anticipated to launch with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 SoC with a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen with 1,220 x 2,712 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. Additionally, a 200-megapixel Samsung HP1 main sensor is rumored to be included, along with an 8-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lens and a 2-megapixel macro lens.
Xiaomi 12T in Lunar Silver
The Xiaomi 12T, on the other hand, comes standard with a Dimensity 8100 chipset, a 108-megapixel main camera, an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera, and a 2-megapixel macro sensor. It’s revealed to have a 6.7-inch OLED display that offers a 120Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ support.
A 5000mAh battery is said to power both devices. They might have different charging capabilities as the Pro model is rumored to offer 120W fast charging, while the standard model might only support 67W fast charging.
Reports suggest the Xiaomi 12T will be sold in two storage models— 8GB RAM + 128GB storage and 8GB RAM + 256GB. On the other hand, the 12T Pro is said to offer 8GB RAM + 256GB storage and 12GB RAM + 256GB storage options.
It was reported in November 2021 that Samsung may launch a tablet named the Galaxy Tab S8 FE towards the end of 2022. As the moniker suggests, it could be an affordable version of the Galaxy Tab S8 tablet. It appears that last year’s rumor may become true as the alleged tablet has surfaced in the database of the Geekbench benchmarking site.
Previous reports have claimed that the model numbers SM-X500 and SM-X506B are both associated with the Galaxy Tab S8 FE. According to GalaxyClub.nl, the SM-X506B model has emerged on Geekbench. The listing reveals that it is powered by a MediaTek chip, which has an MT8791V/ZA model number. It is nothing but the 6nm Kompanio 900T chip, which was announced by the Taiwanese chip maker in September 2021.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S8 FE Geekbench listing
The Kompanio 900T chip is specially designed for tablets and Chromebooks. It features 2 x Cortex-A78 CPU cores, 6 x Cortex-A55 cores, and a Mali-G68 GPU. When we look at the Geekbench listing again, we can see that the SoC comes with 4 GB of RAM.
What’s interesting about the listing is that it reveals that the device is running on Android 13. Hence, it is expected to debut as Samsung’s first tablet with the new Android OS onboard. The tablet scored 773 in the single-core test and 2318 in the multi-core test of the Geekbench 5.
The other specifications of the Galaxy Tab S8 FE. It will be arriving as a successor to the Galaxy Tab S7 FE. Considering that it belongs to the Tab S8 family, it may borrow some of its specs from the vanilla Tab S8. Now that the tablet has appeared on Geekbench, it appears that it may take only a few days, if not weeks, to go official.
iQOO is likely to unveil the iQOO Neo 7 in China in October. It appears that the company will focus on the iQOO 11 lineup after the Neo 7. The rumor mill is gradually spilling information about the iQOO 11 and 11 Pro handsets. The tipster, Panda is Bald from China, has seemingly revealed (via. TechGoing) the display refresh rate of the iQOO 11 Pro.
Previous reports have claimed that the iQOO 11 and the 11 Pro will both feature the new E6 AMOLED display by Samsung. Today, the tipster reportedly claimed that the iQOO 11 Pro’s display will support a 144Hz refresh rate and Quad HD+ resolution.
iQOO 10 Pro
To recall, the iQOO 10 Pro has an E5 AMOLED display measuring 6.78 inches. It supports a Quad HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. Like its predecessor model, the iQOO 11 Pro’s display is expected to feature curved edges and an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint scanner.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 mobile platform is likely to power the iQOO 11 and 11 Pro handsets. There is no word on the front cameras of either phone. However, both models are likely to feature a new 50-megapixel Sony IMX8-series primary camera. The iQOO 11 duo is also expected to come equipped with the Vivo V2 ISP for an enhanced photography experience.
While there is no confirmation yet, the iQOO 11 may support 120W fast charging, whereas the Pro model may offer 200W rapid charging like the iQOO 10 Pro. Both devices are expected to come preloaded with the Android 13 OS.
The iQOO 10 series debuted at the beginning of this year in China. Hence, it is likely that the iQOO 11 lineup may go official at the start of the year 2023 in the home market.

Motorola surprised a lot of people by launching a very powerful flagship killer in the global market earlier this month. We are talking about the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra: it is essentially a rebrand of the Motorola Moto X30 Pro, but it is the first Ultra phone from the Lenovo-owned brand and it packs amazing specifications for everyone. However, in the global market, there are already several amazing flagship killers which reached very interesting street prices. We are obviously talking about the ones released in the first half of this year, such as the OnePlus 10 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro. Do they offer higher value for money? If you need to find out, check this comparison between the main specifications of the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra, the OnePlus 10 Pro, and the Realme GT 2 Pro.

Design
The designs of the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra and OnePlus 10 Pro look more elegant due to the presence of curved displays. They are also built with premium materials, such as glass for the rear side and aluminum for the frame. The Realme GT 2 Pro has a flat display and a rear side made of a bio-polymer, so you should not expect the most amazing build quality, even though the material is unique in its genre and it resembles the touch and feel of the real paper. I personally prefer the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra due to its good look and more compact body.
Display
The OnePlus 10 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro have the same display (if we exclude the curvature) and it is a better panel than the one found on the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra. We are talking about an AMOLED display with a diagonal of 6.7 inches able to show up to one billion colors with a Quad HD+ resolution of 1440 x 3216 pixels, a 120 Hz refresh rate, the HDR10+ certification, and an in-display fingerprint reader. It is a panel similar to the ones you can currently find on the most expensive flagship phones out there. The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra has a higher refresh rate of 144 Hz, but the resolution is lower and it comes with different P-OLED technology, providing an inferior quality.
Specs & Software
The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra offers something more than its rivals in terms of performance because it packs a slightly better processor. We are talking about the Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen 1 built with a 4 nm production process and sporting an octa-core architecture composed of a Cortex X2 CPU running at a max frequency of 3.19 GHz, three Cortex A710 CPUs running at 2.75 GHz, and four Cortex A510 CPUs running at 1.8 GHz, as well as an Adreno 730 GPU. The chipset is paired with up to 512 GB of internal storage and up to 12 GB of RAM. The Realme GT 2 Pro and the OnePlus 10 Pro are fueled by an inferior Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 paired with up to 256 GB of native storage and up to 12 GB of RAM. On the other hand, they have better Android customization based on OPPO’s ColorOS.
Camera
On paper, the most advanced camera setup belongs to the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra. First of all, it is the world’s first device with a 200 MP rear camera, featuring OIS. Further, it has a 12 MP telephoto sensor and a 50 MP ultrawide camera. The Realme GT 2 Pro lacks a telephoto camera, replaced by a 3 MP microlens with 40x magnification. The OnePlus 10 Pro has a telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom, but the main sensor is inferior with its 48 MP resolution. The Motorola also wins the selfie comparison thanks to its amazing 60 MP front camera able to record 4K videos.
The OnePlus 10 Pro and the Realme GT 2 Pro have a bigger battery than the Motorola Edge 30 Ultra, with a capacity of 5000 mAh. So they provide longer battery life; given that they have the same hardware components, they do not differ too much from each other in terms of battery life. But the OnePlus 10 Pro features faster 80W wired charging and, unlike the Realme, it even supports wireless charging.
Price
The Motorola Edge 30 Ultra launched in Europe with an €899/$899 starting price, the OnePlus 10 Pro can currently be found for less than €800/$800 with a bit of luck, and the Realme GT 2 Pro is even available for less than €700/$700. Which one would you pick?
Motorola Edge 30 Ultra vs OnePlus 10 Pro vs Realme GT 2 Pro: PRO and CONS
Xiaomi has announced its eight-electrode body composition scale that provides up to 35 body composition analysis reports. The new Xiaomi body fat scale adopts a dual-frequency bioimpedance measurement technology to provide accurate measurements.
Most of the common body scales in the market use a single-frequency mechanism that cannot measure intra-cellular fluid impedance due to the low-frequency current. This in turn affects the accuracy of these traditional body fat scales. The Xiaomi eight-electrode body composition scale, on the other hand, can accurately measure body fat, water, muscle, and other body indices.
It is equipped with an ADC chip, embedded thumb electrode, full foot contact ITO scale surface, and a handle connection cable with seven cores. The measurement system produces high-precision, floating-point calculations, and the output is benchmarked with the DEXA gold standard.
The Xiaomi eight-electrode body composition scale uses multi-frequency biological alternating current to accurately measure body weight. It has eight electrodes that form multiple current loops in the whole body. This enables the device to produce component measurements of the left arm, right arm, trunk, left leg, and right leg, providing the muscle and fat distribution in each segment. It can intelligently analyze whether the body type and posture of the person being weighed are balanced.
The Xiaomi eight-electrode body fat scale has both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity capabilities. It does not need to be connected to a mobile phone as the measurement will be recorded on the scale and uploaded to the cloud. Using the Xiaomi Sports Health app, users can view a detailed report of measurement data connected to their account. The scale has a net weight of 2.4kg and can weigh persons up to 150kg. It has a minimum wake-up weight of 5kg and a maximum capacity of 200kg.
The Xiaomi Eight-electrode Body Composition Scale is priced at 399 yuan (~$56) and is powered by four AA batteries.

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus was recently spotted with the Galaxy S23 in the database of China’s 3C certification site. Publication SmartPrixhas teamed up with reliable tipster Steve Hemmerstoffer (aka. OnLeaks) to release the CAD renders of the Galaxy S23+. The images show that there will be some design changes on the successor edition of the Galaxy S22+.
Samsung Galaxy S23+ design
The Galaxy S23+ renders show that the device will feature a punch-hole display on the front. Its back panel has a vertical triple camera unit at the upper-left corner. There is no separate camera island as it was seen on the Galaxy S22. Each camera has protruding rings like the Galaxy S22 Ultra.

The volume buttons and the power key are on the right side of the Galaxy S23+. Its bottom edge has a USB-C port and a speaker grille. While the SIM card slot is not visible in the renders, it appears that it will also be available on the bottom edge.
The report further states that the Galaxy S23+ measures 157.7 x 76.1 x 7.6mm and houses a 6.6-inch display. The S22+ also housed a same-sized screen but measured 157.4 x 75.8 x 7.6mm. The report has no other information on the specifications of the device.
Rumors surrounding the Galaxy S23 Plus have claimed that it will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. It appears that the inclusion of the new chipset could be the only major change of the S23+ as compared to its predecessor. The reason behind it is that tipster Ice Universe recently claimed that the S23+ will have the same internals that is available on the S22+. Hence, the S23+ may not be a major upgrade over its predecessor.
Last month, Lenovo launched a new tablet called the Xiaoxin Pad Pro 2022. It debuted with a plastic back panel and frame, which made the tablet look cheap. Thankfully, the company also introduced a plain leather version of the Xiaoxin Pad, which is now up for pre-sale in China.

Startup brand Nothing is gearing up to launch its second audio product, dubbed Nothing Ear (Stick). The new hearables are expected to replace the Ear (1), launched later this year. The company recently offered us an official look at the design of the upcoming earbuds during London Fashion Week. Now, ahead of the launch, the Ear (stick) cleared FCC certification, giving us a closer look at the casing design and a few key spec details.
Nothing Ear (Stick) has received the FCC certification with model number B157 (via). The listing has also revealed some specifications as well as the design of the upcoming TWS earbuds. As per FCC, the earbuds come with a 36mAH battery, and the charging case, which will also double up as a travel case, will carry an additional 350mAh battery. Further, the Nothing TWS will come with a Type-C to Type-C cable of 31cm in length. For connectivity, the earbuds will have Bluetooth v5.2.
The certification site also reveals the casing design of the Nothing Ear (Stick). As can be seen in the images, the audio product will carry a similar transparent design as the Ear (1). However, its charging case will be pretty different. This time, Nothing decided to go with a cylindrical design that looks like a lipstick, hence the name “Ear (Stick)”.
The new earbuds are said to be a more affordable alternative to the Nothing Ear (1), so they may not come with functionalities like ANC. However, Nothing hasn’t confirmed any details about the upcoming TWS yet. Moreover, we are still waiting for an official launch date of the Nothing Ear (Stick).
Realme recently confirmed it will launch the new Realme 10 series in India next year. The series may include a bunch of smartphones. However, months ahead of the official debut, the vanilla Realme 10 smartphone has been spotted on the Geekbench website with a MediaTek Helio 699 SoC and up to 8GB RAM.
A Realme smartphone bearing the model number RMX3630 has surfaced on the Geekbench database (Via). Previous reports suggest this model number is associated with the upcoming Realme 10. The listing confirms the device will be equipped with an entry-level Mediatek Helio G99 SoC paired with a Mali-G57 GPU and 8GB of RAM.
Realme 9
The Realme 10 is listed to boot Android 12 out of the box. Since the device will debut next year, you can expect it to receive an Android 13 update shortly after the launch. However, it would be better if Realme ships the device with Android 13. Further, it has a single core score of 483 points and a multi-core score of 1668 points.
