OnePlus is set to debut a couple of new products in the global market, with the OnePlus 15R being one of the highly anticipated announcements. The brand just revealed a bunch of key details of this budget flagship phone in an official teaser, so here’s everything we know.
OnePlus 15R Teased with Flagship Level Display
The Chinese brand shared a new teaser for the OnePlus Ace 6T in its home market, which confirmed its display specifications. To recall, the OnePlus 15R is basically a rebranded version of the Ace 6T for the global market. In other words, the features of these displays are basically identical. Looking at the image poster, the OnePlus 15R will sport a tall 5.83-inch OLED display.

This panel will have a 1.5K resolution, a 165Hz refresh rate, a max brightness of 1800 nits, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision. You also get a 3,840Hz PWM dimming and hardware level blue light reduction that promises a more comfortable viewing experience. So these specs are even on par with the brand’s flagship OnePlus 15.
Other notable features include Snapdragon 8 Gen 5, a massive 8,300mAh battery pack with 100W fast charging support, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, stereo speakers, and Android 16 OS based OxygenOS 16 custom skin out of the box. In related news, the OnePlus Ace 6T will be announced in China tomorrow (3rd December 2025). On the other hand, the OnePlus 15R will debut in the global market on 17th December 2025, along with the OnePlus Pad Go 2 and the OnePlus Watch Lite.

In a development that could reshape the global semiconductor race, Huawei filed a patent outlining a path to 2 nm-class chip production using only deep-ultraviolet (DUV) lithography tools – the very equipment it still has access to despite sweeping Western export controls that block extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) machines from ASML.
The patent, originally submitted in 2022 but only recently made public and spotted by veteran semiconductor researcher Dr. Frederick Chen, describes a sophisticated multi-patterning technique that could allow Huawei and its manufacturing partner SMIC to reach an ultra-tight 21 nm metal pitch – a critical dimension that puts the resulting nodes on par with the “2 nm-class” processes being readied by TSMC and Samsung, both of which rely heavily on EUV lithography.
At the heart of Huawei’s approach is an optimized Self-Aligned Quadruple Patterning (SAQP) flow that reportedly reduces the number of required DUV exposures to just four, a significant improvement over conventional multi-patterning schemes that often demand far more passes and drive complexity through the roof.
By pushing existing DUV infrastructure to its absolute limit, the company aims to leapfrog straight from its freshly demonstrated Kirin 9030 (fabricated on SMIC’s N+3 node) to a future 2 nm-generation offering without ever touching restricted EUV tools.
Commercial viability is still a question
Industry observers, however, remain cautious. Even if the technical feasibility is proven in the lab, the commercial viability of such an aggressively patterned DUV process is widely questioned. Quadruple patterning at these dimensions could be notoriously yield-killing, defect-prone, and astronomically expensive compared to single-exposure EUV, which is why the rest of the leading-edge industry has already migrated to the newer technology for 3 nm and below.
If Huawei’s SAQP-based 2 nm recipe ever reaches high-volume manufacturing, it would mark a remarkable act of technological defiance against the sanctions regime. For now, the patent stands as both a statement of intent and a reminder of how far China is willing to push decades-old lithography in pursuit of self-sufficiency.
Just a few weeks after the initial HyperOS 3 rollout began, Xiaomi has extended the update to even more devices. The company’s latest custom skin is now arriving on the mid range Redmi Note 14 4G smartphone model and the the Xiaomi Band 10 wearable. So here are all the details.
HyperOS 3 now available for Xiaomi Band 10 & Redmi Note 14
The Chinese tech giant has just released the official stable build of the HyperOS 3 update for the Redmi Note 14 4G model. This update carries the OS3.0.4.0.WOGMIXM firmware version that carries a hefty download size of 5.3GB. The major software upgrade brings the latest Android 16 OS experience, along with visible upgrades like smoother animations, refined touch response, and under the hood performance optimizations.
As part of the update, Redmi Note 14 also gets new UI elements, including the “Hyper Island,” which is a dynamic live activity panel that showcases ongoing tasks like music, reminders, timers, and much more. It functions and appears similar to the Apple’s Dynamic Island function. Beyond interface polish, users should also see improved battery management, enhanced cross-device integration (for Xiaomi’s ecosystem), and security improvements.
On the other hand, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 is the next device that is getting this update. To recall, this is a budget friendly wearable built for fitness enthusiasts. As of right now, the Xiaomi Smart Band 10 is only receiving the update in the Chinese market. In related news, the company just released the HyperOS 3 update for the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Ultra in India.

A new Vivo device carrying the model number V2527A has surfaced on Geekbench, offering an early look at what appears to be the upcoming Vivo S50 Pro Mini. The phone is expected to debut in China this month, with rumors suggesting that it may arrive in global markets as the Vivo X300 FE. The benchmark entry outlines several key details, giving an early indication of what to expect from the device ahead of its official introduction.
Vivo S50 Pro Mini Geekbench listing
Vivo has already confirmed that the S50 Pro Mini will feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, and the Geekbench listing aligns with this claim through identical CPU clock speeds. The device is shown running Android 16 with 16GB of RAM, delivering a single-core score of 2778 and a multi-core score of 9344.
An interesting detail appears in the metadata, which shows the GPU identifier as Adreno 829. Qualcomm advertises the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 with the Adreno 840 GPU, a label also used on the more powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.
The appearance of Adreno 829 suggests that the standard 8 Gen 5 model uses a slightly modified graphics configuration that may not reach the same performance levels as the Elite version’s full Adreno 840 implementation.
Vivo S50 Pro Mini specifications
Vivo S50 Pro Mini – Snapdragon 8 Gen 5Vivo S50 Pro Mini
Vivo has already outlined the S50 Pro Mini’s core hardware. The phone features a 6.31-inch flat AMOLED display paired with LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage. The camera system includes a VCS light-sensitive primary sensor, a Sony IMX882 periscope telephoto lens, and a 50-megapixel anti-distortion selfie camera. The design removes the traditional camera bump for a cleaner look.
Powering the device is a 6,500mAh battery with 90W wired charging and 40W wireless charging. Additional hardware features include an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor 2.0, an IP68 and IP69 rating for water resistance, and an X-axis linear motor for improved haptic response.

OnePlus has confirmed a small but fun upgrade for accessory lovers: the quirky Hole-Pattern Magnetic Case — first introduced with the OnePlus 13s — is coming to the OnePlus Ace 6T.
If you missed the hype the first time, this case became surprisingly popular thanks to its playful design. The back has a grid of small circular cutouts where users can snap in little cube-style decorative plugs, letting you create your own patterns, shapes, or even small pixel art. It’s part protection, part fidget toy — and apparently a hit.
It’s not just for looks either. The built-in magnets let the phone attach to a growing set of magnetic accessories. OnePlus says the Ace 6T case will support its own Mag accessories and Oppo Mag products. It should also work with third-party magnetic gear commonly used with iPhones, including popular car mounts.
Based on the teaser OnePlus shared on Weibo, the case for the Ace 6T comes in the same light gray finish as the earlier versions. Hopefully, more colors are planned, since part of the appeal is expressing your style.
There is one caveat: the Ace 6T doesn’t have wireless charging. So magnetic battery packs and chargers won’t charge the phone even though they will attach.
Since the Ace 6T and OnePlus 15R are essentially the same phone with regional branding differences, it’s very likely this case will show up for 15R buyers too.
Pricing hasn’t been announced, but the version for the OnePlus 15 currently sells for around $25 (currently Rs. 699 in India) — so expect something in that ballpark.
It’s a small addition, sure — but for users who enjoy customizing their phones beyond just a wallpaper change, this case gives the Ace 6T a bit more personality.
OnePlus released its Android 16-based OxygenOS 16 operating system last month, and has been rapidly rolling it out for its devices. The nearly three year old OnePlus 11 is the latest smartphone to receive this major update. At launch, the brand promised 4 major update for the device, which means it is also eligible for the OxygenOS 17 update next year. The update is available as version CPH2447_16.0.1.300(EX01), and the company says more regions will receive it in batches.
OxygenOS 16 introduces major changes to animations, performance, AI features, visuals, and system controls. The new Parallel Processing upgrade brings smoother transitions across system apps. Icons, widgets, folders, and the Smart Sidebar now react with cleaner drag and drop behavior. The text selection magnifier fades in and out more naturally. The status bar shifts smoothly when pulling down the notification shade or Quick Settings, and the gesture can be stopped midway. Audio controls in Quick Settings have new animations, and app opening and closing in button navigation feels more consistent. Charging and fingerprint effects now use light wave patterns, and scrolling has been tuned for better precision.
Performance gets a boost with the updated Trinity Engine, which adjusts workloads in real time. Games should hold steadier frame output through smarter task prioritization. Pop up windows and video calls run more smoothly, while overall power use drops. Photo albums load faster with lower thumbnail power usage, and cached videos in supported apps preview more quickly. Power saving mode now changes performance based on battery percentage.
AI features expand across Photos, Notes, Recorder, Writer, and VoiceScribe. Photos offers clearer categories, easier album navigation, a swipe up info panel, stronger video editing tools, auto straightening, improved collages, and refined filters. Notes adds block editing, side by side image viewing, link sharing for full notes, new highlights, and more formatting. Recorder gets AI noise reduction, automatic meeting or lecture detection, a new layout, and link sharing for audio, transcripts, and summaries. Writer generates more content types and can create mind maps and tables. VoiceScribe improves call summaries with better context handling.
The interface gains new light field visuals, Aurora effects, live weather animations, redesigned Clock, Calculator, and Compass apps, and a new fingerprint animation. Flux Home brings updated icon styles, more folder layouts, text free icons, reorganized settings, category based Drawer mode, a new search bar position, improved suggestions, customizable widget names, adjustable clocks, Lock screen text options, and wallpaper-matched icon styles including Dark mode sets.
Connectivity upgrades include Touch to Share, improved OnePlus Connect with PC multi window support, cross device clipboard, grouped Device Connect settings, better car Bluetooth pairing, a new My Devices center with matching widgets, and enhanced AI LinkBoost. Users can also share phone Wi Fi with a tablet.
Other additions include an AI Doc Scanner, more Quick Settings customization with 2×1 tiles, cleaner notifications, earbuds only ringtone playback, an AI settings page, Bosnian language support, a refreshed Smart Sidebar, redesigned battery stats, faster iOS migration, improved virus scanning, better data transfer speed, and the November 2025 security patch. Apps can also be locked or hidden by holding their Home screen icons.
AnTuTu’s latest performance rankings for November 2025 just rolled in, and Red Magic appears to be dominating. The brand’s latest flagship leads the pack, followed closely behind by Oppo’s and Vivo’s new premium devices. The Red Magic 11 Pro+ is the chart leader in November, so let’s check it out.
AnTuTu November 2025 Rankings: Which phones dominate?
AnTuTu just dropped the updated benchmark list at the start of this month. Similar to last month’s rankings, the Red Magic 11 Pro+ still holds the throne in terms of overall performance. This next gen gaming phone is powered by Qualcomm’s latest and greatest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. What helps the chip managed to achieve such a high scored is its unique cooling system that employs both water and air.
Red Magic 11 Pro+
The system uses a cooling system with vapor chamber, copper foil, graphene, liquid metal, and even an physical fan. Following this device is the Oppo Find X9 Pro in second place and the Vivo X300 Pro, which places third. Interestingly, both of these premium phones are equipped with the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 SoC. This is basically the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5’s direct successor in the premium Android smartphone segment.
The Red Magic 11 Pro+ got a score of 4,104,121 points on AnTuTu, while the Oppo Find X9 Pro and Vivo X300 Pro achieve a score of 4,006,704 and 4,004,589 points, respectively. So, both chips are neck-in-neck and it’s hard to tell which processor is objectively better. Rounding off the top 5 on this list, we have the iQOO 15 and Honor Magic 8 Pro that also feature Qualcomm’s flagship chipset.

Samsung hasn’t even acknowledged the Galaxy S26 series yet, but One UI 8.5 might have already spoiled one of its biggest design details: the colors. New wallpapers discovered inside the software are hinting at a bold palette for the Galaxy S26 Ultra, including a bright orange finish that could easily become the signature look of 2026.
The wallpapers were first spotted by a lesser-known source, but well-known leaker Ice Universe has chimed in to support the find — which makes this leak a lot harder to ignore. Each wallpaper is themed around a distinct color: orange, silver, white, pink, black, and turquoise. If those correspond directly to the launch lineup, buyers should have six finishes to choose from.
Of course, Samsung loves to keep a few shades exclusive. Following recent patterns, Black, White, Silver, and Pink would likely be the standard retail options. Meanwhile, the flashier orange and turquoise versions could end up as Samsung.com exclusives or regional specials — similar to what we saw with the S24 and S25 series.
The possible orange variant is particularly interesting. It lines up with earlier whispers that Samsung was experimenting with a more vibrant, standout color for the S26 Ultra this time. Considering how the Ultra lineup usually sticks to muted tones, this would be a noticeable change in the appearance.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to use Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 exclusively, while the standard and Plus models will reportedly ship with Samsung’s own 2nm-based Exynos 2600 in most markets. The Exynos chip has already shown some eye-popping benchmark figures, but there’s still skepticism about how those results were obtained — so anyone planning to buy an Exynos variant may want to keep expectations in check. Camera upgrades across the S26 lineup also appear to be modest based on current leaks.
However, Samsung may finally introduce proper Qi2 magnetic charging support on all three models, along with slightly larger batteries for the base and Plus.
Even though release day is still a while away, these kinds of early peeks tend to stick. If the wallpapers truly reflect Samsung’s plans, the S26 Ultra could launch with one of the boldest color selections the Ultra series has seen.

This month, the company is expected to introduce the performance-focused Honor GT 2 series. Ahead of the anticipated unveiling, two new Honor phones believed to belong to the GT 2 lineup have received approval from China’s 3C certification authority, hinting at what to expect from the upcoming devices.
Honor GT 2 series 3C certified
Honor GT 2 series 3C certified
The newly listed models carry the model numbers AAK-AN00 and AAP-AN00. According to the certification documents, both variants support 100W wired fast charging, indicating that Honor aims to deliver a significant upgrade in recharge speeds over recent GT-branded devices.
The listings align with earlier reports suggesting that the GT 2 models could feature batteries of around 9,000mAh capacity with 100W charging support. Leaks also indicate that the Honor GT 2 series will target high performance with the Snapdragon 8 Elite platform on the standard model and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 on the GT 2 Pro.
The lineup is expected to feature a flat 6.83-inch 1.5K display, a metal frame, a 50-megapixel main camera with a large sensor, a 3D ultrasonic fingerprint scanner, and an IP68 or IP69 rating.
Apart from the GT 2 series, the brand is also said to be working on a couple of new phones that may debut in the first quarter of 2026. These include the Honor Power 2 equipped with a 10,000mAh battery, the Honor Magic 8 RSR and Magic 8 Mini.

OnePlus is gearing up to launch the Ace 6T in China on December 3, and it’s shaping up to be an important release. It will be the first phone to ship with Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset. This same model is expected to hit global markets later as the OnePlus 15R, though some regions may see small changes.
OnePlus Ace 6T
To build hype, OnePlus has posted fresh camera samples on Weibo. The focus is on the 50-megapixel main camera, which the company says delivers cleaner portraits with softer lighting and more natural skin tones. There’s also a film-style color mode meant to give photos a more classic, textured look straight out of the camera.
OnePlus Ace 6T Portrait shots
OnePlus is also pushing motion capture. The Ace 6T supports the “shadowless capture” feature used on its flagship phones, which is designed to freeze fast-moving subjects with fewer blurry frames. Live Photos get an upgrade too. The phone can record three-second clips, and users can pull out individual frames or turn them into a small collage. These features rely on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5’s fifth-generation ISP and OnePlus’ updated image processing.
Leaked specs paint a clear picture of the rest of the hardware. The Ace 6T is expected to have a 6.83-inch OLED display with a 1.5K resolution and a 165Hz refresh rate. An optical fingerprint sensor sits under the screen. The phone may also pack a massive 8,000mAh battery, which would be one of the biggest in any mainstream smartphone right now. Storage could go up to 1TB with as much as 16GB RAM.
The rear cameras include a 50-megapixel main sensor and an 8-megapixel ultrawide camera. On the front, there’s a 32-megapixel selfie camera. For durability, the phone carries IP66, IP68, IP69 and IP69K ratings, meaning it can handle dust, water and even high-pressure, high-temperature sprays.
Once the Ace 6T is unveiled in China, the global OnePlus 15R should follow not long after.
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
The device is built around a 6.75-inch LCD panel, stretched out to a tall screen ratio with HD+ resolution. The big uplift comes from its 120Hz refresh rate and 240Hz touch sampling rate. Oppo also claims up to 1125 nits of peak brightness and 8-bit of color depth.
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.
There’s also support for multi-satellite positioning systems, including GPS, Beidou, Glonass, Galileo, and QZSS.
Price in India and Availability
Oppo is selling the A6x 5G in three configurations. The base 4/64GB model costs Rs 12,499, the 4/128GB model is priced at Rs 13,499, while the high-end 6/128GB retails for Rs 14,999.
The phone is available for purchase starting today, and buyers can pick between Ice Blue and Olive Green shades.
