Oppo K13 Turbo series to launch on July 21 with two chipsets

Oppo is getting ready to unveil its K13 Turbo lineup in China on July 21. The series will include two smartphones: the K13 Turbo and the K13 Turbo Pro. Now, promotional material circulating on Chinese social media has revealed the chipset details of both phones. 

Snapdragon for Pro, MediaTek for vanilla

According to a newly leaked poster on Weibo, the OPPO K13 Turbo Pro will come with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 chip. It’s expected to offer high-end performance and will be available in four memory options: 12GB + 256GB, 16GB + 256GB, 12GB + 512GB, and 16GB + 512GB. 

The Pro model will also come in three colours, Black Warrior, First Purple, and Knight Silver, giving users a few distinct styles to pick from.

On the other hand, the standard K13 Turbo will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8450 chipset. Despite the different processor, it will feature the same memory combinations as the Pro model. Its colour options 0include Black Warrior, First Purple, and a slightly different shade called Knight White.

Design-wise, both phones are expected to share many features. The Pro model was recently spotted on Geekbench with 16GB of RAM, and leaks suggest that both versions will likely feature a 6.8-inch flat OLED display with a 2800 x 1280 resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. 

Both phones might share the same optics, including a 50MP main rear sensor, a 2MP secondary lens, and a 16MP front-facing camera. And they both are likely to have a built-in cooling fan, along with RGB lighting for visual appeal. 

Interestingly, despite the addition of moving parts, the K13 Turbo is expected to be IPX8 certified.

Galaxy S26 Edge may finally replace the ‘Plus’ model, hints GSMA listing

Just days after Samsung introduced its latest foldables, new model number leaks suggest that the upcoming Galaxy S26 series could be in for a major change. A fresh entry in the GSMA IMEI database hints at the possible end of the “Plus” model as we know it.

The listings reveal three new model numbers: SM-S942, SM-S947, and SM-S948. According to reports, these correspond to the Galaxy S26, Galaxy S26 Edge, and Galaxy S26 Ultra, respectively. But notably missing is the usual “Plus” variant.

That omission suggests Samsung may be restructuring its flagship trio—possibly replacing the mid-tier Galaxy S Plus with a sleeker Edge variant instead.

Looking back, the Galaxy S25 lineup used SM-S931 for the base model, SM-S936 for the Plus, and SM-S938 for the Ultra. The S26 base model’s leap to SM-S942 from the expected S941 hints at meaningful upgrades, potentially absorbing some of the features that once defined the Plus model.

Meanwhile, the S26 Edge (SM-S947) could take the Plus’s place as a more stylish, performance-focused middle option. It builds on the design language introduced with the Galaxy S25 Edge, which launched later than the base and Ultra. This time, though, all three variants seem lined up for a January 2026 reveal—a sign that Samsung may be unifying its flagship launch.

To be clear, nothing is official yet, and Samsung’s plans could shift in the months leading up to launch. But this early model number leak does suggest Samsung is seriously considering a more streamlined S26 lineup.

Bottom line: With the SM-S946 missing and a new Edge variant stepping in, Samsung may be ready to retire the “Plus” for good. Whether that’s a good move depends on how well the Edge model strikes the balance between size, performance, and price. We’ll know more as the January 2026 launch gets closer.

OnePlus Buds 4 vs Buds 3: What’s Different and What’s Better?

OnePlus just unveiled its latest Nord series of mid range smartphones, with the OnePlus Buds 4 tagging along. These are the brand’s latest pair of TWS earbuds, succeeding the OnePlus Buds 3. So here’s a quick comparison showcasing everything new and all of the upgrades.

1. OnePlus Buds 4 vs OnePlus Buds 3: Specs and Features

OnePlus Buds 4
OnePlus Buds 4

While both earbuds feature a dual driver setup, the latest OnePlus Buds 4 has a larger 11mm woofer that uses a 30-layer ceramic-metal diaphragm and a 6mm flat-diaphragm tweeter. Meanwhile, the older Buds 3 pack a 10.4mm woofer with a 6mm tweeter. So on paper, the newer model should offer deeper bass.

Another incremental upgrade is the newer Bluetooth 5.4 standard on the Buds 4 compared to the Buds 3’s Bluetooth 5.3. For mobile gaming enthusiasts, the OnePlus Buds 4 is a better pick thanks to its lower 47ms low latency, compared to the 97ms low latency on the Buds 3. While design is based on personal preference, the Buds 3 is more distinct thanks to its glossy finish. OnePlus has made the Buds 4 appear similar to the Nord Buds series with a matte finish here.

2. Active Noise Cancellation

OnePlus Buds 3
OnePlus Buds 3

ANC is a popular feature on TWS earbuds, with both earbuds offering ANC and transparency mode. However, the OnePlus Buds 4 offers up to 55dB of noise cancellation, which is another slight upgrade from 49dB on the Buds 3. There are also three stages of ANC levels available on both models.

3. Battery & Charging

OnePlus-Buds-4

On a single full charge, the OnePlus Buds 3 can last for up to 10 hours with ANC off (58mAh), which can be bumped up to 44 hours with the charging case (520mAh). Turning on the ANC reduces the battery life to 6.5 hours on the buds alone and 28 hours with the case. On the other hand, the OnePlus Buds 4 promise 9 hours of audio playback with ANC off (62mAh) and up to 45 hours with the charging case (520mAh). The battery life falls to around 6 hours on the buds with ANC enabled, but you still get a total of 37 hours when paired with the case.

4. Pricing and Verdict

OnePlus Buds 3

OnePlus just announced the Buds 4 for 5,999 INR in the Indian market, which is a 500 INR price hike over the Buds 3’s original 5,499 INR launch price. However, the OnePlus Buds 3 is selling for around 4,299 INR, and there are even some offers that reduce the price further.

So if you’re in the market for a solid TWS that doesn’t breach the 5,000 INR price range, the Buds 3 is a great pick. Considering how there are only minor upgrades overall, the Buds 3 is the better deal. But for gaming enthusiast and those who want the latest and greatest, the Buds 4 shouldn’t disappoint either.

Is the Galaxy Z Fold 7 Worth the Upgrade? Here’s What’s New

Samsung’s latest foldable flagship, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, has officially arrived, bringing notable upgrades. These improvements range from a sleeker, more durable design to improved cameras that could tempt existing Fold owners and newcomers alike. So here are the key reasons why the Galaxy Z Fold 7 could be worth the upgrade.

1. A Sleeker, Lighter, and Stronger Design

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7

One of the standout improvements on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is its redesigned chassis. Samsung has managed to shave off a few grams while making the device thinner as well. The flagship foldable now measures just 8.9mm when folded and 4.2mm when unfolded, which is noticeably thinner than the Galaxy Z Fold 6 that measures 12.1mm when folded (5.6mm unfolded).

But it’s not just a slimmer design, Samsung has also worked on improving the durability and hinge mechanism. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 features what the company calls the Armor Flexhinge, along with an IP48 rating for water and dust resistance. In other words, the brand is finally catching up with its Chinese competitors in the foldable phone in the design department.

2. Camera Enhancements

Galaxy Z Fold 7

Previous iterations of the Galaxy Z Fold series had capable cameras, but these were still lacklustre compared to other ultra premium foldable and other flagships. However, the South Korean tech giant brings the S25 Ultra’s main 200MP camera to the Galaxy Z Fold 7.

While the ultra wide angle lens and telephoto shooter have yet to receive the same love, the updated primary camera makes the device a lot better for photography as a whole. With the Z Fold 7, Samsung finally ditches the under-display camera on the main foldable screen with the same 10MP punch hole selfie camera on both the external and main display.

3. Improved Performance & Efficiency

Unfortunately, only the Galaxy Z Flip 7 got a bump in battery capacity this year. So the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is still stuck with a 4,400mAh cell. But thanks to Qualcomm’s powerful and efficient Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, Samsung is promising all-day use (official claims state 24 hours of video playback). This chip is also one of the most powerful processor that power Android flagships in the market, so you can expect top tier performance for regular use and intense tasks like mobile gaming.

4. Verdict

Samsung has built a robust ecosystem of its products and offers one of the best Android experiences with its One UI. The handy software features, Galaxy AI, customizability and a lot more have made the brand popular across the globe. So for those looking to remain in Samsung’s ecosystem, this is a great pick. There are plenty of Chinese competitors, but these aren’t as widely available either. With the Z Fold 7’s various improvements, it at least competes on a similar playing field now. I’d only suggest skipping the Z Fold 7 if you already have the Z Fold 6 or another recent foldable since the upgrades won’t feel substantial over a single generation.

Related: Realme shares initial details about Android 16 rollout

Realme’s update policy needs an upgrade

Realme is fairly quick with software updates, but the update promise falls short of what most Android brands offer. The brand has long offered just three Android upgrades to its high-end phones, the GT series. Only recently, it started offering four of them with the GT 7 series release.

While it’s a nice move, Realme is still a step behind Oppo and Nothing, which offer up to five OS updates, and much behind Samsung and Google, promising up to seven Android updates.

The mid-range and cheaper models from Realme max out at just two OS upgrades, while its rivals offer up to four. Samsung is in a different league, offering up to six OS updates to its newer mid-range models. So, longer software updates are no longer exclusive to flagship devices, and Realme needs to learn that. The brand should offer extended major upgrades on non-flagship phones, too.

Caviar’s $11,000 Galaxy Z Fold7 and $9,270 Flip7 turn foldables into cosmic luxury

Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 may be cutting-edge tech — but Russian luxury brand Caviar wants to elevate them to collectible status. Their new “Cosmic Cabubu” collection, limited to just eight units of each phone, reimagines these foldables as art objects fitted with gold, diamonds… and meteorite.

Taking its inspiration from “Labubu” — a plush monster toy from China — Caviar’s whimsical “Cabubu on Mars” and “Cabubu on Venus” editions showcase playful yet lavish designs:

Galaxy Z Fold7 “Cabubu on Mars” — A black titanium frame with 24-karat gold accents, red enamel jewelwork evoking Martian terrain, and genuine Muonionalusta meteorite fragments. Starts at $10,340 for the 256GB version. The 512GB and 1TB versions cost $10,700 and $11,060, respectively.

Galaxy Z Flip7 “Cabubu on Venus” — A Venus-themed design with blue jewels, thirteen natural diamonds, and meteorite inlays. Priced at $8,910 for 256 GB. Its 512GB version costs $9,270.

Each device is unique due to the natural composition of the meteorites, no two phones are exactly alike.

Under the extravagance lies the original hardware:

  • Z Fold7: 8″ AMOLED display, Snapdragon 8 Elite, 200 MP main camera, and Galaxy AI
  • Z Flip7: 6.9″ AMOLED screen, Exynos 2500 chip, 50 MP main camera and Galaxy AI

Both phones include a specially designed futuristic case with gold accents, tied together by Caviar’s famed craftsmanship.

If you’re in the ultra-luxury market and want a foldable that doubles as a conversation piece (and an investment), Caviar’s “Cosmic Cabubu” collection delivers — but at prices that rival fine art. Only eight units per model mean exclusivity comes at a premium.

Xiaomi’s “YU7 Ultra” SUV caught in camouflage

Xiaomi is teasing a high-performance version of its YU7 electric SUV, recently spotted undercover on the streets of China. Coming on the heels of the SU7 Ultra sedan’s success, the alleged “YU7 Ultra” looks set to bring supercar-level performance to the SUV market.

Spotted under wraps

On July 10, ChinaEVHome shared photos of a camouflaged YU7 Ultra prototype. While it retains the sleek silhouette of the standard YU7, it adds sportier touches: bigger air intakes, flared wheel arches, and a more aggressive stance.

Reports indicate the YU7 Ultra will use the same dual-motor setup as the SU7 Ultra, packing a staggering 1,548 horsepower and 1,770 Nm of torque. Early estimates suggest a 0–100 km/h time of around 2.5 seconds, even with a slightly smaller 93.7 kWh NMC battery (versus the standard YU7’s 96.3 kWh pack).

If true, the YU7 Ultra would position itself as one of the fastest electric SUVs on the market. Considering Xiaomi’s standard YU7 is already in high demand—with 300,000 orders and wait-lists stretching over a year—interest in its ultra version is likely to be intense.

When and where?

The YU7 Ultra could debut in early 2026 in China, priced above the top-tier YU7 Max, though international availability remains unclear. There’s even talk of a larger sibling, the “YU9,” joining the lineup.

Bottom line: The camouflaged YU7 Ultra hints at a bold move by Xiaomi—bringing near-supercar acceleration to the SUV segment. Stick around; this could be one of the most exciting EV launches of 2026.

Realme Note 70T leaks with AMOLED display, Unisoc chip, and 6000mAh battery

Realme’s next budget phone is going to be the Note 70T, as the device has been spotted on an Italian retailer’s website. The premature listing reveals everything from the design to the specs of the phone, except the pricing. 

The Note 70T sports a 6.74-inch AMOLED display with Full HD+ resolution and a waterdrop notch at the top, although the screen’s refresh rate is unspecified. In terms of design and dimensions, the phone measures 161.7 x 74.7 x 7.6mm and weighs 185 grams. The color option includes Gold and Black.

Powered by a fairly basic chipset

The device is built around the Unisoc T7250 chipset, a budget-tier processor not typically known for performance. It’s backed by 4GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage, with no mention of microSD expansion. The listing confirms an IP64 rating for basic protection against dust and water splashes.

The phone is fitted with a 6,000mAh battery to power everything up. As for charging, the FCC documentation reveals the phone supports 15W charging. On the software side, the Note 70T is expected to run Realme UI based on Android 15 out of the box.

Since the Note 70T is a budget phone, the phone will have a fairly basic camera setup. It could have a 50MP main sensor on the back with an LED flash, and a 16MP front-facing camera. 

Other specs of the device include dual SIM card support, Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax), Bluetooth 5.4, USB-C, and a 3.5mm headphone jack. However, it does not support 5G networks. Security is handled by a side-mounted fingerprint sensor.

Realme hasn’t officially announced a launch date for the Note 70T yet. However, now that the device has surfaced on a retailer’s website with full specifications and renders, its debut likely isn’t far off.

Infinix Hot 60 Pro+ July launch confirmed,  display, chipset, battery, camera details officially confirmed

Infinix’s global wing has shared a teaser video via its official Facebook page, offering a sneak peek into its upcoming smartphone—the Hot 60 Pro+. While the teaser avoids revealing everything upfront, it hints at an exceptionally slim design, upgraded hardware, and intelligent features. Here’s a deeper look into what’s coming.

Infinix Hot 60 Pro+ key specifications confirmed

The Hot 60 Pro+ is being promoted as the world’s slimmest phone with a 3D curved screen, measuring just 5.95mm thick. It features a 6.78-inch nearly bezel-less display with 3D curved glass and narrow edges, creating a premium visual experience. While the refresh rate hasn’t been confirmed, Infinix’s past models in this range have supported up to 120Hz.

Despite its sleek profile, it manages to fit a sizeable 5,160mAh battery—an uncommon feat for ultra-thin smartphones. For comparison, Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge reportedly features a smaller 3,900mAh battery. Infinix claims its battery can hold up to 5 years of daily use and supports 45W fast charging, offering a balance of slimness and practicality.

The device is powered by the MediaTek Helio G200 chipset, making it suitable for regular multitasking and AI-driven tasks. It comes equipped with an 11-layer thermal design, including a 0.3mm vapor chamber—thinner than standard implementations. This system is designed to cut SoC temperatures by as much as 5°C, helping maintain consistent performance during extended use.

For photography, the rear houses a 50-megapixel Sony IMX882 sensor, commonly found in higher mid-range phones and known for its consistent low-light results. Infinix is also introducing a new “One Tap AI” interface, with smart tools for object removal, on-screen content recognition, and other intelligent features aimed at enhancing usability.

The Hot 60 Pro+ is expected to go official globally by the end of July 2025.

As for the internals, the phone will ship with 4GB of RAM and either 128GB or 256GB of storage. Powering it all is a 6000mAh battery, with support for 33W fast charging. The predecessor has a 5160mAh cell and 18W charging. 

Xiaomi claims the battery can last up to 77 hours on a single charge and retain 80 percent of its capacity after 1,000 charging cycles, according to EPREL certification.

Oppo Find X8 alternatives

Oppo Find X8 is an impressive flagship smartphone, featuring great hardware, premium design, and feature-rich software — all at a starting price of INR 69,999. It’s a compelling choice for sure, but not the only showstopper in this price range. We’ve found five great alternatives to the Oppo Find X8 that outshines the device in one or more ways.

1. OnePlus 13

The OnePlus 13 (long-term review) has a slightly bigger screen at 6.82 inches (versus 6.59 inches). It also boasts a higher resolution and features LTPO 4.1 technology that enables dynamic refresh rate for better battery efficiency. Additionally, it features Ceramic Guard glass for display protection.

OnePlus 13 features a triple camera setup, all with 50MP sensors: a primary sensor with OIS, a periscope telephoto lens with OIS and 3x optical zoom, and an ultrawide lens with a 120˚ field of view. The front gets a 32MP snapper. While both phones support 4K recording from the front, the OnePlus 13 can record up to 8K from the rear. It also excels in battery capacity and charging speed.

OnePlus 13 specs:

  • Display: 6.82″ LTPO 4.1 AMOLED, 1440 x 3168 pixels resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 4500nits brightness (peak)

The Pixel 9 also secures a place on this list, not because of its hardware but for a great Android experience and software optimizations. When compared to the Oppo Find X8, the Pixel 9’s screen is a little shorter and features lower peak brightness, but has a stronger Gorilla Glass Victus 2 protection on both sides.

The Tensor G4 chipset may not match the raw performance of the Dimensity 9400 or Snapdragon 8 Elite, but it’s more than capable for daily use. You also get seven years of Android updates. Plus, the fact that Pixels are usually the first phones to get the latest OS makes it sweeter.

Unlike others, it lacks a telephoto camera but still manages to deliver excellent image quality. The device has an ultrasonic fingerprint reader and a decent battery with decent fast charging support.

Google Pixel 9 specs:

  • Display: 6.3″ OLED, 1080 x 2424 pixels resolution, 120Hz refresh rate, 2700nits brightness (peak), Gorilla Glass Victus 2

Humbl is powered by the Qualcomm AR1 processor and is built around a screenless, voice-first interface. The glasses feature a contextual camera, gesture support, and open-ear audio. Designed to serve as an always-on assistant, Humbl can respond to voice commands such as “Hey Humbl” to carry out tasks like recording point-of-view videos, providing directions, playing music, summarizing conversations, setting reminders, and offering real-time translations.

The AI can interpret both audio and visual input, allowing it to identify objects and landmarks to enhance user navigation. QWR says the glasses are tuned to understand multiple Indian languages and dialects, which makes them particularly relevant to the local market. It also highlights that Humbl is designed to be discreet and practical for everyday wear. The appearance is similar to that of Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses, though specific hardware details like battery life haven’t been disclosed yet.

Launch timeline

The official launch is scheduled for later this month, but buyers will have to wait until the final quarter of 2025 for shipping. QWR, led by founder Suraj Aiar, also hinted at larger ambitions, including building advanced XR manufacturing infrastructure for global exports. While their website currently doesn’t mention Humbl, the company’s social media is teasing its arrival.

QWR already offers smart glasses under the Aurl brand, which are audio-only, and two different VR headsets.
