Lucid Air Grand Touring Sets New World Record with 1,205 km on Single Charge

Lucid Motors has set a new Guinness World Record for the longest distance driven by an electric car on a single charge. The Lucid Air Grand Touring traveled 1,205 kilometers from St. Moritz, Switzerland to Munich, Germany without stopping to charge. The drive included alpine roads, highways, and secondary roads. This beats the previous record of 1,045 kilometers set in June 2025 by 160 kilometers.

The Lucid Air Grand Touring is powered by the company’s proprietary electric powertrain. It delivers 831 PS and has a WLTP range of 960 kilometers. It uses as little as 13.5 kWh per 100 kilometers and can reach a top speed of 270 kilometers per hour. The car supports ultra-fast charging, allowing it to add up to 400 kilometers of range in 16 minutes. It seats five and features a spacious interior made from premium materials.

This is the second Guinness World Record involving Lucid and London-based entrepreneur Umit Sabanci. In 2024, Sabanci drove a Lucid Air Grand Touring across nine countries on a single charge, setting the record for most countries visited in a production electric vehicle without recharging.

Sabanci said this new journey builds on that achievement. “When I completed the nine-country trip in 2024, it was just the beginning,” he said. “This new record shows how far electric cars can really go. It’s not just the future. It’s already happening.”

Lucid’s Senior Vice President of Product and Chief Engineer Eric Bach said the record proves Lucid’s lead in EV technology. “Lucid vehicles use less energy and go further than any other EV on the market,” he said.

The Lucid Air Grand Touring is rated at 611 kW, with WLTP-tested ranges between 817 and 960 kilometers. The actual range could vary depending on driving behavior, traffic, road conditions, and weather.

DXRacer launches Martian-Pro gaming chair, signs CS:GO icon kennyS as global ambassador

DXRacer has announced a global strategic partnership with professional CS:GO player Kenny “kennyS” Schrub, naming him its first-ever Global Brand Ambassador. The company says kennyS will represent its full range of gaming chairs and desks worldwide, starting with the debut of the new Martian-Pro series electric gaming chair.

Galaxy Z Flip7, Flip7 FE marketing materials surface — with a surprising detail about the FE

Samsung‘s 7th-generation foldables are only hours away from their big reveal, and some leaked marketing materials have already confirmed key details. While most of the information in the alleged promo content aligns with earlier leaks and rumors, there’s a surprising twist — and it’s about the Flip7 FE. But for the uninitiated, let’s go through the basics first.

According to the alleged marketing material, the Galaxy Z Flip7 packs “the thinnest bezel on a Galaxy Z Flip to date,” reaffirming a recently leaked real-life image of the phone. It features a 4.1-inch cover display, per another leaked “official Samsung promo” shared by tipster Ronald Quandt. The promo refers to it as an “Infinity FlexWindow.”

Now, about that twist — the same promo material says the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE, which is expected to be a rebranded Z Flip6 powered by the Exynos 2400, also includes a 4.1-inch cover display. The Flip6 had a 3.4-inch cover screen. If this holds true, the Flip7 FE could become a very appealing option for Galaxy fans, offering nearly identical hardware at a lower cost — save for the chipset swap from the Flip7’s Exynos 2500 to the FE’s Exynos 2400. Still, take it with a pinch of salt, as it sounds almost too good to be true. Most previous leaks and renders hinted at a Flip6-like design for the FE.

The Z Flip7 is said to feature a 4,300mAh battery, while the Flip7 FE sticks to a 4,000mAh unit — a reasonable trade-off. The standard Flip7 will reportedly come in three premium colors: Blue Shadow, Jet Black, and Silver Shadow. Meanwhile, the FE version will keep it simple with White and Black options.

Both phones are also set to feature the latest AI innovations from Samsung and Google. One of the alleged promo slides reads: “Don’t search, ask! Google Gemini gives you real-time answers to whatever you’re looking for.”

That said, we’ll have to wait until the official event for more concrete details. In the meantime, check out the details about the Z Fold7 here.

iPhone 17 Pro Max to get thicker, while Galaxy S26 Ultra goes slim and lightweight

Apple and Samsung are gearing up for a design showdown in 2026. Leaks suggest that while the iPhone 17 Pro Max could get noticeably thicker, the Galaxy S26 Ultra might go the other way—getting slimmer and lighter. It’s a clear sign that the two smartphone giants may be taking very different paths with their next-gen flagships.

Right now, the iPhone 16 Pro Max and Galaxy S25 Ultra are nearly identical in size and weight, both measuring around 163 x 77.6 x 8.3mm and tipping the scales at 227g and 218g, respectively. But according to new leaks shared by tipster @UniverseIce, big changes are coming.

The iPhone 17 Pro Max is reportedly getting thicker, with a depth of 8.76mm. That’s a noticeable bump, possibly to accommodate a larger battery and upgraded camera sensors. Meanwhile, the Galaxy S26 Ultra is said to slim down to somewhere in the 7.xmm range—likely around 7.9mm—according to @TheGalox_. This would follow Samsung’s recent trend toward sleeker designs, as seen in the 8.9mm-thick Galaxy Z Fold7.

Part of that slimming might come from the rumored removal of the S Pen digitizer in the S26 Ultra, and the brand’s new lens technology. Despite the slimmer profile, the phone is still expected to keep its 5,000mAh battery and 200MP (1/1.3″) main sensor. Unfortunately, the rest of the cameras may remain mostly, if not entirely, unchanged.

On the other side, Apple’s move to a thicker body could be aimed at improving thermal performance for the upcoming A19 Pro chip and supporting more advanced “Apple Intelligence” features. The added thickness might also mean better battery life and camera performance—though it could push the iPhone’s weight beyond 227g. By comparison, the Galaxy S26 Ultra could end up lighter than its predecessor, possibly dropping below 218g.

This divergence sets up an interesting contrast: Apple may focus on raw power and endurance, while Samsung leans into portability and ergonomics. Depending on what users value more—performance or comfort—this design shift could tip the balance.

If the leak proves accurate, the iPhone 17 Pro Max and Galaxy S26 Ultra are on track for a major design split when they arrive in early 2026. Which approach will win out? We’ll find out soon enough.

OnePlus Nord CE 5 vs Nord CE 4: What’s New and Improved?

The OnePlus Nord CE 5 has officially arrived, and it brings a host of meaningful upgrades over last year’s Nord CE 4 (Review). From a significantly larger battery to a faster chipset, OnePlus has focused on refining both performance and practicality. So here’s a quick breakdown of everything that’s new and improved compared to its predecessor.

1. OnePlus Nord CE 5 vs Nord CE 4: Design and Display

OnePlus Nord CE 5
OnePlus Nord CE 5

With the latest Nord series, OnePlus refreshed the design that makes the new Nord CE 5 look more refined over the Nord CE 4. While the chassis is quite similar in terms of measurements in both models, the Nord CE 5 weighs a heavier 199 grams. But this additional heft isn’t for no reason, which we will discuss before.

On the front, the Nord CE 5 sports a taller 6.77-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate and FHD+ resolution. The Nord CE 4 has a similar 6.7-inch AMOLED screen with an identical refresh rate and resolution, but the brightness on the Nord CE 5 has a higher 1430 nits peak.

2. Performance

The OnePlus Nord CE 5 makes a notable departure from Qualcomm and features the new MediaTek Dimensity 8350 Apex SoC. This chipset brings big improvements in both CPU and GPU performance compared to the Nord CE 4’s Snapdragon 7 Gen 3. So it is easily the better choice for day-to-day use and even mobile gaming.

3. Battery

OnePlus Nord CE 4 was a great budget phone with a sizeable 5,500mAh battery pack and an impressive 100W wired fast charging support. The latest model gets a slight downgrade this year with an 80W wired fast charging speed, but the battery pack takes things to the next level. The Nord CE 5 is powered by an absolutely mammoth 7,100mAh cell. Pairing this with the new chip, the CE 5 will easily deliver better battery life.

4. Software Support & More

Since the Nord CE 5 is newer, it runs on Android 15 OS out of the box, instead of the CE 4’s original Android 14 OS. In other words, users get longer software support as well. OnePlus is only offering 2 years of major Android updates and 4 years of security patches on the CE 4, compared to the 4 years of Android updates and 6 years of security patches on the CE 5. Among the other smaller upgrades, there is a new IR blaster on the Nord CE 5, updated Bluetooth 5.4, and NFC support

Xiaomi launches Mijia S1 1200G water purifier that fills a full glass in 2.8 seconds

Xiaomi has introduced a new addition to its home appliance lineup with the launch of the Mijia Water Purifier S1 1200G. The purifier is now available for reservation and will officially go on sale in China starting July 15. It is priced at 1,999 yuan (approximately $275).

Mijia Water Purifier S1 1200G

Mijia Water Purifier S1 1200G Specifications

The S1 focuses on speed and safety. It features a 1200G turbidity flow system that delivers water at a flow rate of 3.21 liters per minute. Xiaomi claims it can fill a 150mL glass in just 2.8 seconds, making it suitable for households that need quick and frequent access to clean drinking water.

The purifier holds dual certifications for mother-and-baby-grade purification and high-standard water quality. Xiaomi says the S1 passes nearly 100 water quality checks. It uses a multi-stage PPC and RO filtration system that can remove 99.9% of lead, 99.8% of cadmium, and 100% of E. coli. The RO membrane is rated to last up to five years, and the daily cost of operation is estimated at 0.15 yuan.

To prevent stale water buildup, the S1 includes a Zero-Stale-Water 3.0 system that flushes internal piping by redirecting purified water through the PPC filter. This system is designed to maintain freshness even with irregular use.

The compact body includes a 3.0-liter internal water tank and a wide-mouth 3.0-inch outlet that reduces splashing during pours. The purifier uses an IPX7-rated smart faucet with a digital display to show water quality and output volume in real time. It offers four preset flow levels and uses a precision rectifier to maintain steady, controlled pouring.

The purifier connects with Xiaomi’s HyperOS ecosystem, allowing full control via the Mi Home app. You can track TDS levels, monitor filter life, reorder cartridges with a single tap, and even customize cup volumes directly from your phone.

In related news, Xiaomi recently launched a new water purifier that boils water to 100°C before flash-cooling it for safer, ready-to-drink output. The company has also introduced a floor-standing air conditioner with fast cooling and heating, a 115° wide-angle swing, and HyperOS integration.

Nothing Phone (3) Series is Complete: No Nothing Phone (3) Pro in the Works

The Nothing Phone (3) series is now officially complete. In a recent tweet, the founder and CEO of Nothing, Carl Pei, revealed that the lineup is all here, with the latest flagship, the Nothing Phone (3,) being the last model in this series. But this brings slightly bad news for people hoping for more.

There is no Nothing Phone (3) Pro

As of right now, the Phone (3) series consists of three smartphone models. This includes the Nothing Phone (3a), Phone (3a) Pro, and the Phone (3). The first two devices are mid range models, while the latter is the company’s first true flagship. But Carl Pei’s tweet confirming that the “familia is complete”, confirms that there is no Nothiong Phone (3) Pro in the pipeline.

Nothing Phone (3)

To recall, early rumors had hinted at the brand possibly working on a Nothing Phone (3) Pro alongside the vanilla variant. The base Nothing Phone (3) was expected to be a compact flagship, while the Pro variant had a larger screen and slightly better specs. This official confirmation removes any doubts now regarding the future potential of the lineup in 2025.

Nothing already saw a long delay for the Phone (3) launch, which had a strategic reasoning behind it. So far, the premium phone has had a rather negative reception in the market, with people either hating the looks of the device, or being let down by the specs and pricing decision. But this is all we get for now.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE Leak Hints at Slimmer, More Premium Design, & 6.7-inch 120Hz Display

Rumors regarding Samsung‘s next budget flagship phone have been making the rounds online. Now, the latest report offers us more insight regarding the design refinements that are arriving on the Galaxy S25 FE. So here’s everything you need to know.

Is the Galaxy S25 FE following S25 Edge’s footsteps?

The news arrives from a ZDNet report, which revealed the changes arriving in the body of the new FE smartphone. The South Korean tech giant is apparently planning on making the Galaxy S25 FE thinner than its predecessor. To recall, Samsung’s Galaxy S24 FE measured a respectable 8.0mm, but the Galaxy S25 FE may have a slimmer 7.4mm chassis. This is reportedly being achieved thanks to Samsung using a flexible OLED panel on the newer model.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE Leaked Renders

That’s not all, the front is also getting some improvements as the bezels surrounding the screen are getting thinner as well. The report adds that the Galaxy S25 FE could sport a 6.7-inch screen with a 120Hz refresh rate with slimmer bezels on all four sides. Similar to its predecessor, this is an OLED panel which likely brings an HFD+ resolution. Unfortunately, this was all the information that was shared in this report.

But earlier this week, the Galaxy S25 FE was spotted on the GeekBench platform with the Exynos 2400 SoC, 8GB of RAM, and Android 16 OS out of the box. A 4,700mAh battery pack is expected to power this device, which could support 45W wired fast charging. For photography, the rear is said to pack a 50MP (Main) + 12MP (Ultra Wide) + 8MP (Telephoto) camera setup, while the front houses a 12MP shooter.
