Oppo has quietly introduced a new budget smartphone in India. The Oppo A6x 5G follows the Malaysian launch of its 4G sibling and brings a decent set of specs for its asking price.

Oppo A6x 5G Specifications

Driving the phone is MediaTek’s Dimensity 6300, a modest 5G-capable chip joined by a Mali-G57 MC2 GPU. It’s not built for high-end gaming, but it should cruise through social apps, light multitasking, and ColorOS 15 without drama. 

At the center of the phone’s pitch is its 6,500mAh battery. Oppo says it can give an all-day run time for users. It pairs with 45W wired charging.

As for the cameras, you get a 13MP main camera on the back and a 5MP selfie camera on the front. The rest of the package stays practical with Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.4, USB-C, a headphone jack (yes, really), a microSD slot, and a side-mounted fingerprint reader. 

Oppo A6x 5G Launch Specs Price

There’s also support for multi-satellite positioning systems, including GPS, Beidou, Glonass, Galileo, and QZSS.

A new Geekbench listing for the OnePlus Pad Go 2 has now shed light on the tablet’s connectivity and performance capabilities.

The Pad Go 2 Geekbench listing is under the model number OPD2504. It scored 1065 points in single-core and 3149 points in multi-core tests. More importantly, the chip powering the tablet is MediaTek Dimensity 7300. 

This not only confirms 5G connectivity but also indicates a significant performance leap over the original Pad Go. The latter uses MediaTek’s Helio G99 processor. 

The benchmark further reveals the device will carry 8GB of RAM and run on the Android 16 operating system.

Here’s what OnePlus revealed

Separately, OnePlus has confirmed the tablet will feature a 12.1-inch, 2.9K display (2800 x 1980) with a 7:5 aspect ratio.. The screen can reach HBM brightness of 900 nits and has support for Dolby Vision.

XREAL 1S is the world’s first AR glasses with automatic 2D-to-3D video conversion

XREAL is wrapping up 2025 with the launch of a new entry-level AR glasses model, the XREAL 1S. It sits below the more expensive XREAL One Pro (announced in July) in the lineup and is the first in the category to offer automatic 2D-to-3D conversion.

The glasses weigh 82 grams and use a pair of Sony-made 0.68-inch OLED microdisplays with a resolution of 1920×1200 per eye and up to a 120Hz refresh rate. 

When you switch to the new 2D-to-3D mode, that rate drops to 30Hz, but the glasses still aim for a stable viewing experience with a 52-degree field of view, 700 nits of brightness, and color accuracy rated at ΔE < 3.

A lot of this is driven by XREAL’s in-house X1 spatial computing chip. The company says it can keep latency as low as 3ms, which is important because the 1S supports 3DoF head tracking. That means the virtual screen stays anchored in space even if you move your head around. 

XREAL’s product manager, Takao Takayama, also mentioned that the 3D conversion feature will come to the existing XREAL One and One Pro via an update around the 1S launch window.

There are a few more quality-of-life touches built in. Audio is tuned by Bose, and the glasses include four array microphones. Light transmittance can shift automatically between 0%, 35%, and 100%, depending on how much isolation you want. The 1S ships in a single color called Silent Blue.

XREAL Neo

Alongside the glasses, XREAL also introduced a new accessory called the XREAL Neo, a mobile battery pack built with AR users in mind. It costs 14,580 yen and launches in late January. 

The Neo carries a 10,000mAh battery, two USB-C ports, and can pass video to AR glasses while charging a phone. Interestingly, it can also double as a dock for the Nintendo Switch, including the newer Switch 2.

If you want everything together, XREAL is offering a bundle containing the 1S and the Neo for 76,560 yen, which is about 6,000 yen cheaper than buying both separately. Early buyers also get the XREAL Hub as a pre-order bonus.

Edifier has launched the Auro Clip, a new pair of ear-clip style TWS earbuds in the Chinese market. The earbuds are priced at 399 yuan ($56) and are now available on JD.com.

Edifier Auro Clip

Edifier Auro Clip Specifications

The Auro Clip uses a unique open-ear clip design based on an ergonomic C-shaped bridge. The structure includes a 0.5 mm nickel-titanium memory wire that maintains its shape after repeated use. Each earpiece weighs about 5.8 grams, helping reduce pressure on the ear during long listening sessions.

Edifier has focused heavily on the Auro Clip’s design. The company applied a high-end electroplating process to create a mirror-like finish that gives the earbuds a jewelry-like appearance. The asymmetrical contour and slim waistline aim to enhance the aesthetic appeal. The Auro Clip is available in four colors: Silver, Gold, Brown, and Purple.

Edifier Auro Clip

For audio, the Auro Clip features a 12 mm PU and LCP composite diaphragm paired with a copper-clad aluminum voice coil. The setup supports BassTurbo low-frequency enhancement and a dual-chamber acoustic structure. Edifier also includes DPW directional sound technology, which directs audio toward the ear to minimize sound leakage.

The Auro Clip supports real-time AI translation in 21 languages. The earbuds come with Bluetooth 6.1, which delivers lower latency and stronger stability for wireless connectivity. These also feature a gaming mode that reduces latency to 0.08 seconds.

Edifier Auro Clip

In terms of battery life, the earbuds deliver up to 35 hours on a full charge. It also supports fast charging, and a 15-minute quick charge adds around 3.5 hours of playback. These also come with dual-device connectivity and use four microphones with AI noise reduction to ensure clearer call quality.

The Auro Clip adds practical features such as IP56 dust and water resistance, automatic channel switching based on which ear you clip it on, and smart wear detection that pauses audio when you take it off. It supports customizable gesture controls and uses a vibration-based system to eject trapped water after exposure to moisture.

In related news, Edifier also recently launched the Airpulse A60 desktop Hi-Fi Bluetooth speakers and the S201MKII 2.1 system, which features a 150W output, a wireless subwoofer, and Bluetooth 6.0.

Vivo X300 Ultra leak points to a 7,000 mAh or larger battery

Oppo’s Find X9 Pro has been enjoying its moment in the spotlight thanks to that enormous 7,500 mAh battery and the multi-day endurance that comes with it. But Vivo might not let Oppo hold the crown for long. A fresh leak suggests the upcoming Vivo X300 Ultra is gearing up to challenge — or at least come close to — that record-breaking number.

vivo X200 Ultra

The info comes from reliable Weibo leaker Smart Pikachu, who claims Vivo is planning a Q1 2026 launch for the phone. Digital Chat Station, another well-known tipster, previously pointed to a March 2026 release window, which lines up almost perfectly with Vivo’s usual flagship schedule. In short, development seems well underway.

The battery is the big hook here. Vivo has already been steadily pushing capacity upward. The X200 Ultra launched globally with a 6,000 mAh silicon-carbon cell. Then came the X300 series, where the standard model sits at 6,040 mAh and the X300 Pro climbs to 6,510 mAh. Now, the X300 Ultra is rumored to jump to roughly 7,000 mAh.

While that’s another major leap — and enough to pose a real threat to the Find X9 Pro (7500 mAh) or the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max (7500 mAh) — it’ll be interesting to see whether the upcoming Find X9 Ultra pushes things further toward an 8,000 mAh milestone. The Find X9 Ultra was, in fact, rumored to feature the largest battery among all upcoming “Ultra” phones.

Other specs of the X300 Ultra remain mostly behind the curtain for now, though the phone is expected to feature Qualcomm’s upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and a new camera setup built around a 35 mm primary lens paired with Sony’s latest Lytia 901 sensor. One more welcome change? Unlike the China-only X200 Ultra, this model is reportedly heading for a global release from day one.

If all of this holds true, the X300 Ultra could become one of the most-watched flagships of early 2026.

Motorola Edge 70 Swarovski Edition leaked with 14 real Swarovski crystals on the back

It looks like Motorola has another fashion-forward device on the way. Just weeks after the Edge 70 landed in stores, a new Swarovski Edition has leaked online — and it’s definitely aiming for the glam crowd.

Shared by leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks), the marketing poster shows the phone in a clean Pantone “Cloud Dancer” finish — a creamy, soft white shade that’s tipped to become Pantone’s official Color of the Year 2026. The back is covered in vegan leather and dotted with 14 real Swarovski crystals. The frame even carries a “PANTONE Cloud Dancer” engraving for that extra bit of luxury branding.

This isn’t just another paint job. It’s Motorola’s second Swarovski-themed release this year, following the Razr 60 special edition and a matching set of crystal-flair earbuds. And while pricing isn’t confirmed yet, it clearly pushes the Edge 70 into collectible territory. For reference, the standard model currently starts around €799 in Europe.

Inside, nothing changes — which is mostly good news. You still get the bright 6.7-inch 120 Hz P-OLED display, IP68 and IP69 protection, Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip, 12 GB RAM, up to 512 GB storage, 50 MP triple cameras, wireless charging, and a 4800 mAh battery. The standard Edge 70 measures 5.99mm in thickness, ships with Android 16, and promises four major OS updates.

There’s no launch date for this special Swarovski edition yet, but the leak looks polished enough that an announcement shouldn’t be far off. If you’ve been eyeing the Edge 70 and want something that stands out — literally — this Swarovski Edition might be the sparkliest smartphone release of the year.

Buyers focused on software longevity and intelligent features may find the premium worthwhile, while hardware-first users will see more value in Huawei’s approach.

Disclaimer:
Prices are approximate and may vary based on country, region, and applicable taxes.

5. Conclusion

Huawei’s standouts include ultra-fast charging, satellite messaging (region-specific), variable aperture photography, and strong durability. These features cater to users who want independence from power outlets, flexibility in photography, and a device built for demanding environments.

Updated ClickFix malware impersonates Windows update to steal your passwords, browser cookies, banking logins

A sneaky new strain of the ClickFix malware is making the rounds, and it’s going after the easiest victim of all: anyone who trusts a Windows update prompt. Security researchers at Huntress say the attackers have managed to put together a full-screen fake update screen that looks just convincing enough to trick people into giving it full access — all through a simple copy-paste trick.

The scam tends to show up on shady websites, mostly adult streaming pages filled with sketchy pop-ups. One misplaced click on an ad or a fake age check, and your entire browser suddenly turns into what looks like a legitimate Windows update stuck at 95%. It then claims you need to press Windows + R and paste a special command to finish the update. Of course, that’s exactly what the malware wants.

That command silently launches mshta, a built-in Windows tool, and pulls down a payload from a remote server. To make detection harder, the code includes tons of junk commands meant to throw off security software. In one of the odder twists, part of the malicious code is actually tucked inside a PNG image — the malware pulls hidden shellcode straight from the pixels and then injects itself into other running processes using .NET.

Once it’s embedded inside the system, the second stage kicks in. Known infostealers like Rhadamanthys or LummaC2 get dropped onto the machine, and from there it’s open season on passwords, browser cookies, banking logins, and crypto wallet data. Everything gets scooped up and shipped off to attackers.

Researchers say the campaign has been active since at least early October and is still very much ongoing, with multiple look-alike domains hosting the fake update screen. Forensic analysts also found random, useless strings in the code — including a weird reference to an old UN speech — apparently just thrown in to waste analysts’ time.

The worst part is that this attack relies entirely on social engineering. No file downloads. No obvious malware pop-ups. Just a website tricking you into running its command for it.

The quick takeaway:

Never copy and paste commands from a random webpage, no matter how official it looks. Real Windows updates don’t ask you to open the Run box — ever.

Honor Magic5 series gains MagicOS 10 update with iPhone notification sync, new Icons, and more

Honor is pushing out a major MagicOS 10 update (version 10.0.0.116) to the Magic5 lineup, bringing a fresh look and a surprising new trick: iPhone notification syncing. The update is just under 1GB and is already rolling out to users.

One of the first things you’ll notice is the new transparent app icons. You can toggle them in Settings > Desktop & Personalization > Icons > Transparent Icons for a cleaner, glass-like home screen. The notification and control centers also get refreshed with real-time blur effects that shift depending on your wallpaper.

The standout addition, though, is cross-platform notification sharing. With the latest Honor Connect app installed on an iPhone, Magic5 users can now see iPhone notifications directly on their phone. Pairing is done by scanning a QR code from Settings > Smart Connect > Connect with iPhone.

Honor MagicOS 10

There are a bunch of smaller improvements too:

  • Better support for landscape floating windows in more apps
  • Double-press Volume Down (with screen off) to ring or silence the phone
  • View saved Wi-Fi passwords and disconnect networks in WLAN settings
  • A new animated badge for Live Photos in Honor Share

Honor says the update also fixes breath-to-wake issues, some random app crashes, and a handful of performance bugs to keep the system running smoother.

Even though the Magic5 series is the last Honor flagship range still tied to Huawei’s ecosystem services like MeeTime and Cloud Space, it’s still getting meaningful new features. More upgrades — including new charging options and improved frame stabilization — are already planned.

Magic5 series owners should see the update prompt soon, giving Honor’s 2023 flagships a nice refresh heading into 2025.
