Samsung seems to be gearing up to expand its entry-level tablet lineup with the Galaxy Tab A11 LTE. The device has just surfaced in certification databases, suggesting an official launch could be right around the corner. While the specs haven’t been fully revealed yet, the “A” series has traditionally offered accessible Android tablets designed for students, casual users, and multimedia consumption on a budget.
New Galaxy Tab A11 Budget Tablet in the Works
The South Korean tech giant’s upcoming Galaxy Tab A11 was just spotted on FCC and IMEI, carrying the SM-X135G model number for the LTE version. On the FCC database, the Galaxy Tab A11 surfaced with support for dual band WiFi and was being tested with HQ-3565S and HQ-6739SDS Li-ion batteries and EP-T1510 adapter.
Samsung Galaxy Tab A9
This confirms the Galaxy Tab A11’s 4,980mAh battery capacity, which will likely have a typical rating of around 5,100mAh. Meanwhile, the adapter brings support for 15W wired fast charging. To recall, Samsung announced its predecessor, the Galaxy Tab A9, with identical specs. So we might not be getting any substantial upgrade with the Tab A11.
Unfortunately, the IMEI certification does not reveal any details regarding the specs and features of this budget tablet. But taking a look at the Galaxy Tab A9, we can make a few speculations. Samsung released the Galaxy Tab A9 with an 8.7-inch LCD panel with a 60Hz refresh rate and HD+ resolution. It is equipped with the Helio G99 SoC, runs on Android 15, Bluetooth 5.3, and more. Meaning, there could be minor improvements in the next gen model.

Huawei launched the FreeBuds 6 in March. We apologize for the delay in this review. We have recently reviewed many earbuds, and the reason we recommend the Freebuds 6 is not only due to the wearing experience of these semi-open earbuds. After using them, we found that it is indeed different from traditional semi-open earbuds.
Traditional semi-open earbuds often have some shortcomings in sound quality and noise cancellation. However, the Huawei FreeBuds 6 attempts to break these limitations. This time, the all-around upgraded audio and noise-cancellation capability may bring you a different experience…
Packaging and Design
The charging case is in a round and smooth pebble shape, which is vertically slender; it is small and easy to carry. The case has a matte texture on the outside, providing a comfortable feel and effectively reducing fingerprints and dirt. The device features an LED indicator light on the front to display the charging status and a USB-C interface at the bottom.
The unique appearance design makes FreeBuds 6 stand out among many earbuds and shows a fashionable and elegant temperament. Design makes FreeBuds 6 stand out among many earbuds, showcasing.
The earbuds continue the waterdrop shape from the previous generation. However, the size of the ear rod has been reduced by 12%, and the weight of each earbud has been reduced by 9%, to only 4.95 grams.
It fits more closely to the ear canal curve. The earbuds are available in black, white, and purple. If you do not like the white one in my hand, you can also choose purple; it presents a unique gradient effect in the light, which is very fashionable. The earbud handle is short and wide at the bottom, and the outside is the touch control area, which is convenient to operate.
Sound Quality and Effects
What is particularly special this time is that Huawei FreeBuds 6 combines an 11mm dual-magnetic low-frequency unit with an ultra-high-frequency micro-plane high-frequency unit. This dual-unit design is relatively rare in semi-open earbuds. What kind of changes will this bring? Let’s first take a look at its frequency response curve.
The high-frequency is clear and gorgeous, the low-frequency has an atmospheric feeling but is not flat enough, and the mid-frequency has a timbre. However, the frequency response curve is provided for reference only. More importantly, it is the actual listening experience. Of course, we also want to know what the actual performance will be like if we compare it with AirPods 4.
In terms of mid-high frequency, thanks to the ultra-high-frequency micro-plane unit, the resolution is outstanding. When playing classical music, the high-frequency parts of instruments such as violins and pianos are clear and bright, and can clearly show the timbre characteristics and performance details of the instruments. Especially in vocal performance, FreeBuds 6 have an excellent performance. The singer’s vocal timbre has a high degree of reproduction, and the emotional expression is rich.
However, the shortcomings of the low-frequency part are also obvious. Although the 11mm dual-magnetic low-frequency unit can provide a certain degree of sub-bass depth, compared with some earbuds that focus on heavy bass, the quantity is slightly insufficient. However, through Huawei’s self-developed acoustic algorithm, the low-frequency has been optimized. Listening to pop music can also provide a good sense of rhythm. – What do you think?
In addition, FreeBuds 6 uses “sound field reconstruction technology” to make the sound field more open. In the app, we can choose three different spatial effects. When you are listening to music, you can feel a richer sense of space. At the same time, the earbuds support 2.3 Mbps lossless transmission. Combined with Huawei’s unique tuning technology, it can bring you a high-quality music experience.
Noise Cancellation
Huawei FreeBuds 6 adopts hybrid active noise cancellation technology, with a maximum noise cancellation depth of up to 45 dB. The earbuds come with multiple microphones, which, in combination with Huawei’s self-developed frequency division noise cancellation algorithm, can not only effectively isolate low-frequency noise, but also have a good filtering effect on high-frequency noise such as keyboard tapping and human voices. In an office environment, it can effectively isolate keyboard sounds and conversation sounds, providing users with a relatively quiet working environment.
When noise cancellation is turned on, the ear pressure control of FreeBuds 6 is relatively good. However, when the maximum noise cancellation level is turned on, I still feel a certain ear pressure.
Functions
The Huawei FreeBuds 6 rely on the HarmonyOS system and feature a range of powerful smart functions. The earbuds support the Near Link quick find feature. Even if the earbuds are lost in a multi-floor building, such as a large shopping mall, they can be found more accurately.
In addition, the earbuds also support 95dB call noise cancellation, which can ensure clear voice quality in noisy environments. If you are a Huawei phone user, congratulations! When used with a Huawei phone, you can enjoy exclusive sound effect optimization for free, further improving the sound quality experience.
Experience and Battery Life
To me, the battery life of the earbuds indeed needs improvement. When I listen to music with noise cancellation on, the earbuds last about 4 and a half hours and only 24 hours with the charging case. Since I have often used noise cancellation for a long time, such battery life is not enough for me. I need to recharge it again, which I find inconvenient. However, there is “fast charging.”
It supports 88W super-fast charging, and a 5-minute charge can provide 1.5 hours of use for the earbuds. Emergency recharging is quite convenient.
Conclusion
If you are a Huawei phone user or an Android user, and you value the smart features of the earbuds, such as Near Link find and AI real-time translation, as well as having high requirements for mid-high frequency and vocal performance in sound quality, then Huawei FreeBuds 6 would be a really good choice, especially at its current price（Aprox. $159.00).
Honor made headlines earlier this year by launching the Honor Power, the first mainstream smartphone with an 8,000mAh battery. Building on that momentum, the brand unveiled the Honor X70 with an even larger 8,300mAh battery earlier this month. Now, a new leak suggests Honor could be working on a phone with a massive 10,000mAh battery.
Could it be a Honor Power series phone?
Honor’s 10000mAh battery phone could be in works
According to reliable tipster Digital Chat Station, Honor is likely to begin testing a mid-range smartphone with a 10,000mAh battery in the first half of 2026. He also mentioned that the handset could have a body thickness of under 8.5mm, despite the large battery. However, no other specifications have been revealed yet.
It’s worth noting that testing does not confirm a launch next year. If the development progresses smoothly, the phone might debut as part of the Honor Power series, whose first-generation model featured an 8,000mAh battery. Hopefully, future reports will shed more light on the device’s specifications and design.
Other brands join the big-battery race
Honor isn’t the only brand focusing on large battery capacities. Oppo just launched the K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro, both equipped with a 7,000mAh battery and 80W fast charging. Similarly, Realme is expected to launch the Realme 15 Pro later this week in India, featuring the same battery and charging specs.
Meanwhile, the upcoming Redmi Note 15 Pro+ and iQOO Z10 are rumoured to feature 7,000mAh and 8,000mAh batteries, respectively. Even the upcoming Xiaomi 16 series, expected to debut in China in September, may include a 7,000mAh battery. It’s clear that 7,000mAh+ batteries are becoming increasingly common in both mid-range and flagship phones, marking a shift in priorities toward battery life.

iQOO, known for its performance-driven smartphones, may soon unveil a high end tablet with a compact form factor. While details remain limited, early reports suggest the brand is aiming to challenge existing players like Xiaomi and Apple that have their own “mini” flagship tablets. So here’s everything you need to know.
iQOO May Launch a Compact Premium Tablet Soon
To recall, there are a few brands with mini tablet offerings. A popular model is Apple’s latest iPad Mini, while there are also new Chinese options like the Redmi K Pad (upcoming Xiaomi Pad Mini in the global market), Lenovo Legion Y700 (Review), and Red Magic Astra. Now, an upcoming mini iQOO Pad model could take on the competition, as per Digital Chat Station.
iQOO Pad 5
The known tipster claims that iQOO’s new compact tablet will arrive with flagship grade specs and may sport an 8.3-inch display. This model was initially expected to debut later this year, but its release may have been delayed to 2026. Apart from its high end specs and display size, DCS did not reveal any other finer details about this compact tablet.
We can expect this new tablet to feature top-end processors like the Snapdragon 8 Elite. But considering the delay, there’s a chance it could replace this with the newer Snapdragon 8 Elite 2. Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report, so take this news with a pinch of salt for now and stick around for more.
In related news, the brand just teased the iQOO Z10R with the Dimensity 7400, 12GB RAM, 5700mAh battery, and more for under Rs 20,000 pricing.

Redmi is preparing to introduce its Note 15 lineup in China, while iQOO is also expected to unveil its Z10 smartphone soon. Ahead of their official announcements, a trusted source, Digital Chat Station, has leaked some core specifications of both upcoming devices.
Alleged Redmi Note 15 Pro+ and iQOO Z10 leak by DCS
According to the details shared by DCS, one of the phones is likely the Redmi Note 15 Pro+, and the other seems to be the iQOO Z10. The leak suggests that the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ will feature a quad-curved OLED screen with slim and uniform bezels and a 1.5K resolution.
Its camera setup will include a high-quality 50-megapixel main sensor with a large sensor size, paired with a 50-megapixel telephoto lens. Powering the device will be a new Snapdragon 7s chip, and it will house a massive 7,000mAh battery. Additionally, it will feature symmetrical dual speakers for enhanced audio.
iQOO Z10 specifications (rumored)
As for the iQOO Z10, it is expected to sport a flat OLED display with the same 1.5K resolution. Its rear camera will include a 50-megapixel main lens, positioned as a mid-range imaging sensor. The phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 processor and is tipped to pack an even larger 8,000mAh battery.
Although the exact launch date has not been confirmed, both models are likely to debut in China sometime in August. The Z10 will be a new addition to China’s IQOO Z10 series lineup, which already includes three models, such as the iQOO Z10x, Z10 Turbo, and Z10 Turbo Pro.
In markets outside of China, iQOO has already launched the iQOO Z10. However, the Chinese version of the Z10 will be completely different from the global Z10, which features the Dimensity 7300 chip.

Redmi’s K90 series has been in the rumor mill for a while now. The phones are expected to launch sometime in October, and based on a new leak, it looks like Xiaomi is preparing for a major overhaul, especially for the base model.
According to tipster Digital Chat Station, all models in the Redmi K90 series will include a 50-megapixel telephoto camera. On the K80 series, only the Pro model features a telephoto lens. The regular and Ultra variants were limited to wide and ultrawide setups.
The display is also getting reworked. The tipster mentions a “customized new screen” with a “large R angle,” which likely means more rounded corners and a refined front design.
Xiaomi is also said to be using a new base material for the panel, although it’s unclear what impact that will have on display quality or durability. You can also expect a continued focus on OLED, high refresh rates, and high brightness, in line with K80 standards.
More interestingly, the leak claims that all K90 models will come with symmetrical dual speakers, a metal middle frame, and an upgraded 3D ultrasonic fingerprint sensor.. The K80 series already featured under-display ultrasonic sensors, but the new setup could offer faster or more reliable unlocking.
Redmi K80 Ultra
The K90 phones are also expected to carry large 7000mAh-class batteries and support 100W wired charging. That would be a boost over the 6550mAh/90W setup on the K80 and align with the 7410mAh/100W spec seen on the K80 Ultra. IP68 water resistance is also sticking around for the full lineup.
What’s clear from the leak is that the biggest shift could come to the base K90 model. Unlike the K80, which had to compromise on the telephoto lens and a few other high-end specs, the K90 might offer a flagship-grade experience even at the entry level, at least on paper.

Alleged OnePlus Pad 3 Mini leak by DCS
According to the tipster, the Ouga group, which includes Oppo, OnePlus, and Realme brands, will launch a compact tablet alongside a 6.3-inch phone. While he did not go into the specifics of revealing the name of the brand and the devices, it appears that the tipster is hinting that OnePlus’ first compact tablet will break cover alongside the OnePlus 15T.
According to his post, current prototypes of the alleged OnePlus Pad 3 Mini are being tested with the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 (SM8850) platform. DCS concludes by claiming that these products will be officially revealed in the first half of next year.
Early rumours surrounding the OnePlus 15T suggest that the device will continue to feature a 6.3-inch OLED panel equipped with an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor instead of an optical type. Its rear camera setup may include a primary snapper, an ultra-wide lens, and a periscope telephoto camera.
The OnePlus 15T, despite being a compact phone, may pack a behemoth 7000mAh battery. The device is also expected to support wireless charging, a feature that’s absent on the OnePlus 13T.
Apart from the OnePlus 15T, a couple of more compact flagship phones are said to be in the works. While the Xiaomi 16 series offering and Vivo X300 are expected to go official later this year, the first half of 2026 may also see the arrival of the Oppo Find X9s and Honor Magic 8 Mini compact phones.

HMD appears to be gearing up for a wave of new budget smartphones. While the Pulse 2 series is reportedly in the works, a fresh leak from trusted HMD tipster HMD MEME’S points to two more devices on the horizon. Codenamed “MAHUZE” and “ACCORD,” the phones are expected to launch as the HMD Bold and HMD Crest 2, respectively.
Both are powered by a Unisoc chipset
Let’s start with the more powerful of the two. The HMD Crest 2 (or ACCORD internally) will be powered by the Unisoc T8300 5G chipset. That’s an octa-core processor built on TSMC’s 6nm process, featuring a 2+6 core setup.
The prime is two Cortex-A78 performance cores clocked at 2.2GHz, while the SoC has six Cortex-A55 efficiency cores running at 2.0GHz for efficiency.
In performance tests, the HMD Crest 2 scored 743 on Geekbench’s single-core benchmark and 2285 in multi-core, decent numbers for a budget 5G phone. It’s expected to come with 4GB, 6GB, or even 8GB of RAM, depending on the configuration.
HMD Crest 2 (Accord) Geekbench
On the other side is the HMD Bold. It is rumored to be powered by Unisoc T7250, an entry-level chipset that still brings respectable specs. It features two Cortex-A75 cores at 1.8GHz and six Cortex-A55 cores at 1.6GHz, manufactured on TSMC’s 12nm FinFET process. The Bold is expected to come in 4GB and 6GB RAM variants.
There is no official word yet on the release date or pricing, but if the leak from HMD MEME’S is anything to go by, these phones could land soon. We will keep you in the loop if we get any new details about them.

HMD seems to be expanding its lineup with three new phones under the Pulse 2 name: the Pulse 2, Pulse 2 Plus, and Pulse 2 Pro. According to a new leak, the trio will ship with Android 15 out of the box and target the budget segment, featuring modest hardware, Unisoc chipsets, and up to 50MP cameras.
Let’s start with the base model. The HMD Pulse 2 reportedly features a 6.67-inch HD+ IPS LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate.
Powering the phone could be a Unisoc T7200 chip paired with 4GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of storage. The camera setup is said to include a 13MP main sensor paired with a depth sensor on the back, and an 8MP selfie camera.
HMD Pulse
The Pulse 2 Plus will retain the same display and Unisoc T7200 chip, but upgrade the main rear camera to 50MP, which should enhance detail in photos (assuming the sensor and software perform well). Memory options expand to 6GB, and storage remains the same: 64GB or 128GB.
Pulse 2 Pro might come with better cameras, but still an LCD panel
At the top of the line is the HMD Pulse 2 Pro, which gets a few more meaningful upgrades. It swaps in a 6.7-inch HD+ IPS LCD with a smoother 120Hz refresh rate and is powered by the newer Unisoc T7250 SoC.
The rear camera setup adds a macro sensor alongside the 50MP main shooter and a depth sensor, while the front gets an unexpected 50MP camera. You also get more RAM (6GB or 8GB), up to 256GB of storage, and 20W fast charging support.
As mentioned earlier, all three phones will ship with Android 15. No word yet on pricing or release dates, but if the specs hold up, HMD might have a few compelling low-cost Android options on the way.

Samsung brought a new contender in the premium flip phone segment with the new Galaxy Z Flip 7. It competes with Motorola’s flagship Razr Ultra 2025 (Geekwills), which also packs high-end specs. But which one of these foldables is worth your money? Read on for a quick comparison.
1. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 vs Moto Razr Ultra 2025: Design & Display
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7
The South Korean tech giant is a veteran in the foldable phone market and has refined the Galaxy Z Flip 7 with upgrades in its cover display and hinge mechanism. While the Galaxy Z Flip 6 was still behind some of its competition, the latest Z Flip 7’s new 4.1-inch FlexWindow is a notable upgrade. Now, Samsung’s flip finally matches the latest Razr phones in the cover display area. Furthermore, the main screen has gotten taller this year, making the experience nearly equal on both models.
However, Motorola still has a slight edge thanks to its faster 165Hz refresh rate on both panels and LTPO 1-165Hz variable refresh on the external display. In comparison, Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7 only offers a 60Hz or 120Hz refresh rate on the secondary screen. Even in the design department, both device are quite similar. Although, the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is slimmer and thinner.
It measures 6.9mm when unfolded and 14.9mm when folded, with a weight of 188 grams. The Motorola Razr Ultra 2025, on the other hand, has a chunkier 7.29mm chassis when unfolded, which goes up to 15.69mm when folded. The body also weighs slightly heavier at 189 grams. So you can expect the Z Flip 7 to be easier to hold on to. However, considering the fact that the Razr Ultra 2025 features a vegan leather finish (glass on the Flip 7), the overall hand feel might be better on Motorola’s flip phone. So the design you like is based on your personal preference.

2. Performance
One of the ways Samsung avoided hiking the Galaxy Z Flip 7’s price was the shift to its in-house Exynos 2500 SoC. This is a 3nm chip that brings various improvements in performance and power efficiency. But the Snapdragon 8 Elite that powers the Razr Ultra 2025 is still one of the fastest chips on the market.
Samsung did make improvements with the Exynos 2500, but the 8 Elite is better for gaming and is also slightly more power efficient. Thanks to better thermals on the new Exynos chip, you won’t miss out on anything by going with the Galaxy Z Flip 7. Nevertheless, the Snapdragon 8 Elite has proven to be a great chip for everyday use and intensive tasks.
3. Battery & Charging
Galaxy Z Flip 7
With the Galaxy Z Flip 7, the battery capacity got a bump from 4,000mAh from its predecessor to 4,300mAh. Unfortunately, the fast charging rate is still stuck at 25W wired and 15W wireless. So Motorola easily gets the win here thanks to its larger 4,700mAh battery. Even the wired and wireless charging is faster with 68W and 30W, respectively.
4. Camera
Razr Ultra 2025
While both models have a dual camera setup on the rear, Motorola packs a 50MP (main, f/1.8, OIS) + 50MP (Ultrawide, f/2.0) on the back and a 50MP selfie shooter (f/2.2). In comparison, the Z Flip 7’s rear cameras include a 50MP (main, f/1.8, OIS) + 12MP (Ultrawide, f/2.2), with the front housing a 10MP camera for selfies. The main cameras are basically on par, but the ultra wide and selfie shooters’ better apertures and higher resolutions should translate to better picture quality (at least on paper).
5. Pricing & Verdict
Samsung just announced the Galaxy Z Flip 7 for a starting price tag of 1,099 US Dollars for the 256GB variant and 1,219 US Dollars for the 512GB option. This makes it more affordable than the Moto Razr Ultra 2025, which starts from 1,299 US Dollars for the 512GB option. As of right now, a limited time deal brings the 1TB variant of the Razr for 1,299 US Dollars as well (1,499 US Dollars original price) and there is even some freebies like a free smartwatch with the phone. So the Razr also brings great value.
In conclusion, the Razr Ultra 2025 is still slightly more expensive, offers a better camera setup, a larger battery, faster charging, and better performance. However, the Z Flip 7 is still capable in most of these regards, along with a better software experience with One UI. It also has strong cross platform connectivity, and Samsung has even included DeX as well (first time on any Z series phone). Unless you need the best performance, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a great option for your next flip phone purchase.
