Oppo is preparing to expand its mid-range lineup with the F31 series, which is expected to arrive in India next month. The series will include three models — the Oppo F31, F31 Pro, and F31 Pro+ — each bringing a different look and set of hardware.
Leaked renders and specs shared by tipster Abhishek Yadav (@yabhishekhd) on August 24 give an early look at the devices. Despite sharing the same series name, the three models are styled quite differently.
F31 Pro+: Flat display, circular rear camera housing, Snapdragon 7 Gen 3, 12GB RAM, 256GB storage.
F31 Pro: Squircle-shaped camera module, powered by MediaTek Dimensity 7300 (likely the “Energy” variant).
F31: Uses MediaTek Dimensity 6300 and features a vertically stacked pill-shaped camera design.
All three models are said to pack 7,000mAh batteries — larger than the F29’s 6,500mAh and the F29 Pro’s 6,000mAh. Charging also sees an upgrade: the F31 and F31 Pro are expected to support 80W fast charging, while details for the Pro+ haven’t surfaced yet. Given Oppo’s past launches, it could go even higher.
Color options will vary across the lineup:
F31 Pro+ — white, pink, blue
F31 Pro — gold, black
F31 — red, purple, blue
According to reports, Oppo is targeting a release in India sometime in mid-September, just ahead of the festive season. With larger batteries, faster charging, and varied designs, the F31 series is set to compete against the likes of the upcoming Vivo Y500 and Redmi Note 15. Pricing details haven’t leaked yet, but Oppo is clearly positioning this as a strong mid-range refresh.

BOE and Lenovo have joined forces to launch a new line of professional displays under the ThinkVision P Series. The monitors use BOE’s Oxide thin-film transistor (TFT) technology, which the company says delivers better performance and lower power consumption than conventional solutions.
Announced on August 22, the partnership brings BOE’s decade-old Oxide TFT technology into Lenovo’s ThinkVision lineup. Compared with amorphous silicon, Oxide transistors allow higher conductivity and lower leakage current, enabling smoother visuals while reducing energy use.
The ThinkVision P Series supports an adaptive refresh rate ranging from 24Hz to 120Hz, switching within milliseconds depending on the task. That means higher refresh rates for video and gaming, and lower rates for reading or word processing. According to BOE, power consumption can drop by more than 50% at 24Hz, meeting Energy Star 8.0 standards.
Targeted at professionals, the displays come factory-calibrated with 98% DCI-P3 color coverage and a 2000:1 contrast ratio. The end products reportedly include USB-C docking, HDMI 2.1, and a built-in KVM switch to make multitasking easier. Sustainability is also part of the design — the monitors use 20% recycled materials and were unveiled at an event in Nanjing under the theme “Smart Display Carbon-Initiated Clear Environment.”
With adaptive refresh rates, accurate colors, and reduced power draw, the ThinkVision P Series aims to offer creators and professionals a balance of performance and efficiency. The new monitors are now available in select markets.
OnePlus has started rolling out OxygenOS 15.0.0.850 for the OnePlus 13R in India. The update is being released in batches and will expand to more users in the coming days. The build number is CPH2691_15.0.0.850(EX01).
Floating Windows and Split View
The update improves animations when opening, repositioning, and resizing floating windows. Split View is no longer limited to fixed ratios, and users can now drag the divider to adjust app sizes in landscape mode. When recent tasks are stacked, the lock status of an app can be changed by swiping down on it.

Samsung is getting ready to expand its budget 5G lineup, and two new phones are almost here. The Galaxy F17 5G and Galaxy M17 5G have now shown up on Geekbench, pointing to an imminent debut.
The listings, spotted by tipster Mohammed Khatri, confirm that both devices are rebranded versions of the Galaxy A17 5G. They run on Samsung’s Exynos 1330, a 5nm octa-core chip paired with 8GB RAM in the test units.
Galaxy F17 GeekbenchGalaxy M17 Geekbench
What’s interesting is the difference in scores. The F17 5G managed 975 points single-core and 2,242 multi-core, while the M17 5G came in lower at 762 and 1,596. That gap likely comes down to testing variations — the retail models should perform about the same. The chipset is the same one used in the Galaxy A16 5G, although that model also shipped with MediaTek’s Dimensity 6300 in some regions.
Hardware-wise, don’t expect surprises. The F17 and M17 are expected to carry over the A17 5G’s setup: a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, 50MP main camera, and 5,000mAh battery with 25W charging. Samsung usually tweaks the back panel design between its budget models, so that’s where you’ll likely see the differences. Both will ship with Android 15 and One UI 7 out of the box, with up to six years of updates promised.
The Galaxy M16 and F16 went on sale in India back in March after the Galaxy A16 debuted in late October 2024. The Galaxy A17 followed in August this year, so the M17 and F17 could also arrive a few weeks earlier than their predecessors.
Xiaomi has launched the Smart Camera 4 Dual-Camera Edition in China, priced at 299 yuan ($42). The product is now available on JD.com. This model follows the recent release of the Smart Camera 4 Zoom Edition.

Samsung appears to be preparing a noticeable design shift for its next flagship, the Galaxy S26 Ultra. According to a new leak, the upcoming model could move further away from the sharp, boxy look that has defined the Ultra line since 2022, taking the rounder approach a step beyond what we saw on the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
Tipster Phoneart (@UniverseIce) claimed on August 24 that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will feature far more rounded corners compared to its predecessors. The Ultra series first adopted the squared-off style with the Galaxy S22 Ultra, which also brought an integrated S Pen slot. That design carried through the S23 and S24 Ultra, while the current S25 Ultra only slightly softened the edges.
If the leak holds true, the S26 Ultra could go further in this direction, making the phone easier to hold and less likely to dig into palms or wear out pockets. The move would also bring Samsung closer to rivals like Google’s Pixel 10 Pro and Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro.
iPhone 17 Pro hands-on imageGoogle Pixel 10 Pro & Pixel 10 Pro XL
The Galaxy S26 series is expected to debut in January 2026, with the Ultra launching alongside the rebranded Galaxy S26 Pro and Galaxy S26 Edge. Early reports point to the Ultra retaining its 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display and S Pen support, while opting for a slightly slimmer and lighter build.
Under the hood, the S26 Ultra is almost confirmed to feature Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip and a 200MP main camera with a fast f/1.4 aperture.
Last month we got a first look at the S26 Ultra through a leaked CAD render, which showed a Z Fold7–like camera island design. However, the corners didn’t appear much different at the time. That said, this latest report is just a glass of water from the fountain of leaks we’ll be seeing about the phone. Expect more detailed renders and information as development progresses and we inch closer to launch.

Ahead of the upcoming Realme 828 Fan Festival, Realme shared teasers for smartphones with innovative new tech. We’ve already seen the upcoming Realme phone with a massive 15,000mAh battery, but this model is arriving alongside a new Realme Chill Fan Phone with a built in AC active cooling system.
Realme Teases New Chill Fan Phone with Built-In AC Cooling
The Chinese brand’s 15,000mAh phone was seen with a huge battery that promises an impressive 50 hours of video playback on a single full charge. Another model that got teased was the Realme Chill Fan Phone. This isn’t the first time we’ve seen an active cooling system with a physical fan on a smartphone. There are plenty of gaming smartphones that feature this technology. However, what makes the Chill Fan Phone stand out is the “AC” cooling.

Another notable aspect of this new cooling tech is that it can even toggle the AC on and off. The video trailer showcases the smartphone with a familiar design but with a small vent on the side frame.
You can even see this vent blowing out enough air to blow out a candle and pushing a rubber ducky forward in a container of water. To recall, the Realme 828 Fan Festival is set to kick off on 27th August 2025 at 11 AM China Standard Time. It remains to be seen whether the Realme Chill Fan Phone offers real innovation or if it’s just a gimmick.

Tesla has introduced a new AI-powered voice assistant in its electric vehicles in China, developed in partnership with DeepSeek and ByteDance. The feature is called “Hey Tesla” and is designed to give drivers natural voice control for navigation, media, and cabin functions.
Tesla confirmed that ByteDance’s Doubao large language model will manage voice commands such as adjusting the air conditioning, setting routes, and controlling entertainment. DeepSeek’s chatbot will handle conversational tasks, including news, weather updates, and casual interaction. Both models operate on ByteDance’s Volcano Engine cloud platform, which processes requests in real time through an encrypted API.
The company launched the system with the new six-seat Model Y L SUV, which went on sale in August. Unlike older Tesla models in China that require pressing a steering wheel button, the Model Y L supports a wake phrase. Drivers can say “Hey Tesla” or set a custom word to activate the assistant hands-free.
Tesla’s choice of partners reflects its push to localize features for the Chinese market. Domestic rivals such as BYD, Nio, and Xpeng already use advanced AI voice assistants, giving them an advantage in customer experience. By adopting DeepSeek and Doubao, Tesla aims to close that gap and compete more directly with homegrown brands.
In the United States, Tesla continues to use Grok, the AI model built by Elon Musk’s startup xAI. The split shows Tesla’s regional strategy, with local AI providers powering its cars in China to meet regulatory and consumer expectations. BMW has taken a similar path, working with Alibaba’s QWen LLM for its Chinese lineup.
Tesla has not confirmed when the new voice assistant will expand to other models in China. The company’s updated terms of service mention the integration, but some owners said they had not received the feature in recent over-the-air updates. Despite the delay, Tesla is signaling that in-car intelligence is now central to competing in the world’s largest EV market.
In related news, we recently covered a comprehensive guide on AI chatbot subscriptions in 2025, including all the key plans, pricing, and features you need to know.

vivo is expected to launch its X300 series sometime in September this year, featuring the latest Dimensity flagship chip and improved cameras. But according to a new rumor, the base model could take an interesting turn—it might fit more comfortably in your hand and pocket.
Tipster Yogesh Brar claims the vivo X300 will be a compact flagship despite packing upgraded imaging hardware. While he didn’t share a screen size, his statement, “There is no need for an X300 Pro Mini now…” suggests the phone could be small enough to rank among the best compact flagships of 2025 and 2026.
For reference, the vivo X200 featured a 6.67-inch display and weighed 197 grams, while the X200 Pro Mini slimmed that down to 6.31-inch and 187 grams. It remains unclear how vivo plans to position the X300 and X300 Pro Mini if the standard model indeed adopts a compact form factor.
On the camera front, the vivo X300 is expected to include a 200MP (1/1.4″) main sensor, which would be an upgrade over the 50MP Sony IMX921 (1/1.56″) used in the X200. This could be joined by a 50MP ultra-wide lens and a 50MP Sony IMX882 (1/1.95″) telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. The telephoto is also rumored to double as a macro camera.
The phone has already appeared on Geekbench 6.3.0, powered by the Dimensity 9500 and scoring 2352 in single-core and 7129 in multi-core tests.
Meanwhile, the X300 Pro Mini was rumored last month to continue using the IMX882 sensor for its 3x telephoto camera.
It will be interesting to see how vivo positions the standard X300 in the lineup—whether as a true compact flagship or as a middle ground between the X300 Pro Mini and X300 Pro. More leaks are likely to surface as we get closer to launch, so stay tuned.
Honor has just unveiled a new budget smartphone that has a durable design and promises long battery life. The Honor X7d is the latest model from the brand’s X series. So here’s everything you need to know.
Honor X7d Announced: Big Battery, Tough Build
The Chinese smartphone maker just released the X7d as the new entry level model with the SGS 5-star drop-survival certification.

Vivo is preparing to add a new device to its Y series lineup in China. The company has confirmed that the Vivo Y500 will launch on September 1, and its biggest headline feature is a massive 8200mAh battery. That’s a big step up from last year’s Y300, which carried a 6500mAh cell. Vivo is calling it their longest-lasting battery to date.
The Y500 isn’t just about battery size. Vivo has also pushed durability further this time. The phone comes with IP69+, IP69, and IP68 ratings for water and dust resistance, making it one of the company’s most rugged devices yet.
It also has SGS Gold Label five-star certification for drop and impact resistance and has passed military-standard environmental testing. In other words, Vivo is positioning the Y500 as a phone that can take more punishment than its predecessors.
The company has released a teaser that gives a first look at the design. It shows a punch-hole display on the front, a dual rear camera setup with a ring-shaped LED flash, and three color options: Black, Blue, and Violet.
As for specs, reliable tipster Digital Chat Station has shared what to expect under the hood. The Y500 will reportedly run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 7300 processor, replacing the Dimensity 6300 used in the Y300. It will also keep an FHD+ OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate. The rear cameras are said to include a 50MP main sensor with a secondary lens, while the front will feature an 8MP selfie camera.
With a launch just days away, Vivo is clearly setting the Y500 apart with a focus on long battery life and durability. More details, including pricing and availability outside China, should be announced once the phone goes official.

The Google Pixel 10 series is finally here with the all-new Tensor G5 chipset, promising significant upgrades over last year’s G4 chip. This is the biggest upgrade to Tensor chips and promises a significant performance increase, but despite all that, it couldn’t stand strong against the Snapdragon 8 Elite (see the comparison here). The latter is much more powerful than the Tensor G5.
So now, we’re more interested in finding out how the latest Tensor chip fares against the 2023’s Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. Can it beat the Snapdragon’s two-year-old flagship chipset? Let’s see what the benchmarks have to say.
Tensor G5 vs Snapdragon 8 Gen 3: Benchmark score
Note: The Tensor G5 benchmark scores are obtained from leaked sources (1,2). We’ll update them once we test the device. The reference devices used for benchmark testing are Pixel 10 Pro XL (Tensor G5) and Galaxy S24 Ultra (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3).
Tensor G5 vs Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 AnTuTu score
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 pulls well ahead of the Tensor G5 in AnTuTu, scoring 1,768,372 compared to the Tensor’s 1,140,286 — a gap of nearly 55% in overall performance.
The Qualcomm chip leads across the board. Its CPU score of 441,650 is about 41% higher than Tensor’s 313,500. The GPU score widens the gap even further, with the Snapdragon chip posting nearly a 66% boost, which should translate into smoother gaming and stronger graphics performance.
The memory (371,609 vs 246,571) and UX (302,008 vs 185,520) also lean in favor of the Snapdragon. So, while the Tensor G5 promises a significant performance boost, it still can’t beat the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in raw performance.

In terms of raw performance, the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 outperforms Google’s latest Tensor G5 mobile chipset significantly in benchmarks. Let’s now look at the spec sheet and major differences for better clarity about these two chipsets.
For the first time, Google chose TSMC to manufacture the Tensor G5, while the previous Tensor chips were manufactured by Samsung. The former is well-reputed for making high-performance and highly efficient smartphone chips.
The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is also manufactured using TSMC’s manufacturing facility. The difference here is that the Tensor G5 utilizes a more advanced 3nm processing node, compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3’s 4nm, resulting in improved power efficiency.
The two chips also feature different CPU architectures for mid-cores, with the Tensor G5 equipped with five Cortex-A725 cores, while the Snapdragon chip utilizes five Cortex-A720 cores. The remaining cores, however, are the same.
For visual rendering, the Tensor G5 features a PowerVR DXT-48-1536 GPU, whereas the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 has an Adreno 750 GPU with higher floating-point operations per second (FLOPS).
Tensor G5 vs Snapdragon 8 Gen 3: Conclusion
The Tensor G5 brings many solid upgrades, and for this reason, Google calls it “a game-changer for Pixel”. However, when compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, it’s clear that Google still has some catching up to do. The Snapdragon chip dominates in almost every category on AnTuTu and Geekbench.
Please note that the comparison uses leaked benchmark data for Tensor G5. So, there can still be some differences when we’ve the data from our testing. We’ll update the article accordingly.
