Xiaomi’s next T-series phone has made an early appearance. The Xiaomi 17T has now been spotted on Brazil’s Anatel certification database, and the listing gives a fairly clear look at the design along with a few confirmed details.
The phone, carrying the model number 2602DPT53G, shows up with a live image of the back panel. At first glance, it looks very similar to last year’s Xiaomi 15T, though there are a couple of small changes around the camera module.
There is still a triple camera setup, and one of the four cutouts appears to be purely decorative. Leica branding sits in the middle of the camera island, and the LED flash has been moved outside the main module this time. The overall layout is still quite familiar, so this feels more like a refinement than a redesign.
One practical detail confirmed by the listing is the charger. In Brazil, the Xiaomi 17T will ship with a 67W charger in the box. That is expected due to local regulations, while other regions, especially Europe, will likely not include one.
As for the specs, most of it is still based on leaks, but the picture is starting to come together. The phone is expected to run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 8500 chip, paired with up to 12GB of RAM. A Geekbench listing also points to Android 16, likely with HyperOS 3 on top.
Battery capacity could be another area where Xiaomi is making changes. Early reports suggest something around 6,500mAh, though some leaks hint it could go even higher. Charging is expected to stay at 67W.
Camera hardware may not change much from the previous generation. A 50MP main sensor, 50MP telephoto, and a 12MP ultrawide setup are expected again, possibly with some tuning improvements.
What is a bit unusual is the timing. The 17T series could arrive as early as May 2026, which is earlier than the typical September launch window.
The Xiaomi 17T will sit in the upper mid-range space with a familiar design, a few hardware upgrades, and a bigger focus on battery life.

Poco has quietly added a new model to its ultra-budget C-series. The phone has launched in select global markets shortly after the Poco C81 and C81x made their way to India. All three share the same core hardware, so the Pro model is more about small upgrades than a completely different device.
Up front, the C81 Pro gets a 6.9-inch LCD panel with HD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The resolution is on the lower side, but the higher refresh rate should offer a smooth experience in basic tasks.
The phone is built around the Unisoc T7250 chipset, which is fine for basic tasks like messaging, streaming, and light gaming. Performance should feel familiar if you have used older budget chips like the Snapdragon 680 or Helio G85. Memory is limited to 4GB of RAM, but storage options go up to 256GB. There is also support for microSD expansion.
The camera setup is simple. You get a 13MP main sensor on the back along with an auxiliary lens, and an 8MP camera on the front. It should be good enough for casual shots in decent lighting, but expectations should stay realistic.
Battery life looks like one of the stronger points. The 6000mAh unit, paired with modest hardware, should easily last a full day, and likely more with lighter use. Charging is capped at 15W, so it will take some time to top up.
The phone ships with Android 15-based HyperOS 3. Poco has not shared much about long-term updates yet, which is fairly typical in this segment.
Pricing and availability:
Pricing starts at around $109 for the 128GB variant, with a lower-cost 64GB option also available in some markets. A 256GB version sits higher in the lineup.
4GB+64GB: $99
4GB+128GB: $109
4GB+256GB: $129
Compared to the Indian Poco C81 and C81x, the differences are fairly minor. The Poco C81 Pro feels like a straightforward budget phone that focuses on the basics. The big screen and large battery are clearly the main highlights, and for the price, that might be enough for a lot of users.
Xiaomi could soon raise prices for its mid to high-end monitors. According to reports from ChannelGate and Vision Hall, the company is dealing with higher component costs, particularly for main control board chips and memory.
The cost of these components has risen by 14-21 yuan ($2-$3) per monitor in Q2 2026. Analysts expect an additional increase of 21 yuan ($3) in Q3. These increases, though small on paper, can significantly impact Xiaomi’s margins in the competitive value hardware market.
The company is expected to introduce a phased pricing strategy, which could result in gradual price increases across its product line. Currently, Xiaomi’s most expensive monitor, the Redmi G Pro 32U 2026, sells for 3,199 yuan ($468).
Rising memory costs have also impacted other Xiaomi devices. The company recently raised smartphone prices by 200 yuan (~$29). Global memory prices for DRAM and NAND flash have nearly quadrupled over the last year. Increased demand from AI and data centers, coupled with limited production capacity, has worsened the situation and strained global supply chains.
Xiaomi’s gross margins fell from 12% to 8.3% in 2025 as rising material costs drove profits lower. Competitors like Oppo, Vivo, and Honor have also struggled with similar pricing pressures, forcing them to adjust their strategies.
Experts predict that increasing costs for chips and memory will remain a challenge in 2026. Xiaomi may continue applying gradual price increases across additional product categories, signaling a potential shift from its commitment to providing affordable high-end technology.

An AI coding agent has reportedly deleted an entire production database along with its backups, turning what should have been a routine maintenance session into a serious incident for a startup.
The issue came to light after PocketOS founder Jer Crane shared what happened on April 24. While working in a test environment, he ran into a mismatch with account credentials. Instead of waiting for input or asking for clarification, the AI agent decided to act on its own.
The agent, running through Cursor and powered by Anthropic’s Claude Opus 4.6 model, searched through the codebase, found an API token in a separate file, and used it to execute a GraphQL command. That command ended up deleting a storage volume tied to the company’s production database. The entire sequence reportedly took just a few seconds.
What made things worse is how the backups were set up. They were stored on the same volume, so when the main data was deleted, the backups went with it. The most recent usable backup was around three months old, which meant a lot of recent data was at risk of being lost.
It later turned out that the API token used by the agent had far more access than intended. It was originally created for something limited, like managing domains, but effectively had root-level permissions due to missing role-based restrictions. That gave the agent the ability to carry out a destructive command without hitting any safeguards.
When asked to explain what happened, the AI reportedly acknowledged that it made assumptions about the environment, did not verify what the command would do, and went ahead without proper authorization.
The incident quickly picked up attention online, with posts about it spreading widely. Railway’s CEO, Jake Cooper, stepped in to help with recovery, and the system was brought back online within about an hour. Since then, a delayed deletion mechanism has been introduced to avoid instant data wipes.
Even so, the situation highlights something that has been building for a while. As AI tools become more capable, giving them direct access to production systems without strict limits can backfire quickly. In this case, it only took 9 seconds.

Running your iPhone down to 0% and plugging it back in is usually a non-event. But for a growing number of iPhone 17 models and iPhone Air owners, that simple habit is turning into a surprisingly stubborn problem.
Across Reddit and other forums, users are reporting that once their device fully dies, it sometimes won’t power back on when connected to a standard wired charger. The issue doesn’t seem limited to one specific model either. Reports span the iPhone 17, 17 Pro, 17 Pro Max, and the new iPhone Air.
One of the earliest posts, dating back several months, described an iPhone 17 Pro Max that shut off at 1% and then showed no signs of life when plugged in. Since then, similar complaints have kept popping up, suggesting this isn’t just a handful of defective units.
The behavior isn’t consistent. Some users say their phone eventually comes back after sitting on a cable for 10–15 minutes. Others report waiting hours. And in the worst cases, the phone doesn’t respond at all to a wired connection.
Oddly, the most reliable workaround so far has been switching to a MagSafe charger. Multiple users, and even some Apple Store employees, have had better luck getting the phone to respond wirelessly. Even then, it can take a while before anything happens.
As for the cause, it’s still unclear. It could be a software bug, a charging handshake issue, or something deeper with battery calibration. Apple hasn’t publicly addressed it yet.
For now, if your iPhone refuses to turn back on after dying, skipping the cable and dropping it on a MagSafe charger might be your best bet. Just don’t expect instant results.

According to a new leak, the upcoming Honor Watch 6 Plus could bring a noticeable jump in endurance, along with a round dial design. The smartwatch is expected to launch sometime in May.
The details come from Digital Chat Station, who claims the watch has already been tested on Honor’s robot “Lightning.” The robot reportedly completed a half-marathon while wearing the device, which is an unusual but interesting way to show off both design and durability. More importantly, the leak suggests the battery life could be one of the standout features here.
Honor is said to be using its high-silicon Qinghai Lake battery technology, which it has been pushing across multiple products. In this case, the claim is that the Watch 6 Plus could feature the largest battery ever used in a smartwatch. If that holds up in real-world use, it could address one of the most common complaints with smartwatches.
On the health side, the watch is expected to build on what Honor has already been doing. Features like continuous blood pressure monitoring and early warning systems for cardiac issues are likely to carry over, along with more refined fitness tracking.
There is also talk of improved sports modes and smarter data tracking, powered by Honor’s own algorithms. The idea seems to be offering more useful guidance, not just raw numbers, so the watch can suggest when to push harder and when to take it easy.
It is still early, and a lot of this is based on leaks, so things could change. But if the battery claims turn out to be accurate, the Honor Watch 6 Plus could end up being a pretty interesting option in a segment where battery life is still a weak point.
Xiaomi recently introduced the Xiaomi Watch 5 to global markets, expanding on its legacy of delivering high-end features at an aggressive price point. But how does it compare to its competitors like the Galaxy Watch 8, Apple Watch Series 11, OnePlus Watch 4, and others? Here’s a detailed breakdown of how the newest Xiaomi entry fares in a fiercely competitive space.
The Xiaomi Watch 5 runs on Wear OS 6, giving users seamless access to Google applications such as Calendar, Maps, and Wallet. Xiaomi includes Google Gemini, which powers voice commands for navigation and task management directly on the device.
Xiaomi designed the watch with dual-chip architecture, using a Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor alongside the BES2800 low-power chip. This configuration allows efficient power use and six days of use in standard mode, or up to 18 days in power-saving mode. The watch also introduces gesture controls with pinch, snap, and wrist rotation options, enhancing productivity for hands-free actions.
The stainless-steel frame and sapphire crystal provide durability and a premium look. With 150 sports modes, advanced GNSS tracking, and one-tap health checks, Xiaomi delivers a comprehensive smartwatch for fitness fans. At a starting price of €299.99 ($354), it provides high-end features at an accessible price point.
2. Apple Watch Series 11
While it may not be a direct competitor to Apple Watches, the Xiaomi Watch 5 is compatible with iOS, making a comparison worthwhile. Apple introduced features like hypertension notifications and sleep tracking with Sleep Score in the Watch Series 11. These rely on advanced health sensors designed to monitor blood pressure and assess sleep quality over time.
The smartwatch uses WatchOS 26, which includes new watch faces, apps like Notes, and better ecosystem integration with iPhones. Apple also updated the display glass with 2x scratch resistance and improved cellular connectivity by adding a 5G modem.
Battery life remains the device’s primary shortfall, with just 24 hours of normal use compared to competitors offering much longer runtimes. However, its pricing starts at $399, making it a desirable choice for Apple users.
3. Samsung Galaxy Watch 8
Although Samsung has yet to refresh its smartwatch lineup this year, the company made significant refinements last year with the Galaxy Watch 8. The updated design featured a slimmer profile for improved comfort and wearability. Additionally, the watch introduced advanced health features, including sleep apnea detection, vascular load monitoring, and a personalized running coach.
Samsung’s One UI 8 Watch software provides a cleaner interface, and the watch runs on a 3nm processor for enhanced performance. Dual-frequency GPS enables accurate outdoor tracking. Despite impressive features, its two-day battery life underperforms when compared with other flagship smartwatches. The Galaxy Watch 8 starts at $349.99, offering strong integration with Android smartphones.
4. Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro
The Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro targets fitness enthusiasts. It includes features like trail navigation, cycling recognition, and detailed golf course maps. Advanced health tools like vascular elasticity detection and blood glucose risk alerts set it apart from other fitness wearables.
The larger 1.92-inch AMOLED display with 3,000 nits of brightness ensures visibility outdoors, while the 10-day battery life beats many competitors in its class. However, it lacks support for Wear OS and focuses primarily on Huawei’s ecosystem. The Pro model starts at 2,199 yuan ($322), positioning it as a premium fitness tool.
5. Oppo Watch X3
The Oppo Watch X3 brings a titanium build, reducing its weight by 13.4% compared to its predecessor. It runs Wear OS 6 with access to Google’s suite of apps, offering compatibility with a wide range of Android devices.
Oppo uses a dual-chip system with the Snapdragon W5 and BES2800 processors, balancing performance and power. The device manages a five-day battery life in standard mode and up to 16 days in power-saving mode. At €379 ($445), it offers a durable design, bright AMOLED display, and comprehensive health tracking.
6. OnePlus Watch 4
The OnePlus Watch 4 shares much of its design and hardware with the Oppo Watch X3. It features the same Snapdragon W5 chip, a titanium case, and Wear OS 6 software. The watch delivers similar battery life and durability ratings, including IP68 and military-grade certifications.
OnePlus adds its OxygenOS Watch 8 experience to improve user interaction. Sensors track health metrics like heart rate, blood oxygen, and sleep patterns. The price and availability remain unclear, though it is expected to compete closely with premium offerings in the market.
7. Should You Buy the Xiaomi Watch 5 Over Its Competitors?
The Xiaomi Watch 5 is arguably the most balanced smartwatch of 2026 for Android users, but it isn’t a one-size-fits-all device. You should opt for the Xiaomi Watch 5 if battery life and value are your top priorities. With its massive 930mAh battery delivering up to six days of smart use and an incredible 18 days in power-saver mode, it easily outlasts the daily charging cycles required by Apple and Samsung devices.
It is also an excellent choice for tech trendsetters and budget-conscious buyers. At €299.99, it undercuts many premium competitors while still delivering flagship hardware like a sapphire glass display, dual-band GPS, cutting-edge hands-free gesture controls, and direct Google Gemini integration.
However, there are specific users who should avoid the Xiaomi Watch 5 in favor of its competitors. If you are an iPhone user, the Apple Watch Series 11 remains your undisputed choice, offering seamless iOS integration and exclusive health features like Hypertension Notifications that simply aren’t available on Wear OS.
On the Android side, users seeking the absolute latest in AI-driven health analysis might find the Xiaomi lacking compared to the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8. Samsung’s offering justifies its higher price tag with a highly efficient 3nm processor and advanced metrics like Vascular Load Monitoring and an AI-Powered Energy Score.
Furthermore, extreme outdoor athletes and premium material purists should likely look elsewhere. If your training relies on specialized sports tracking, such as offline vector maps for golf or segmented trail running navigation, the Huawei Watch Fit 5 Pro is a much better fit for your active lifestyle.
Finally, if you prefer the ultra-lightweight and rugged feel of aerospace-grade titanium over standard stainless steel, you will be much better served by the OnePlus Watch 4 or the Oppo Watch X3.

We’ve tested our fair share of pen displays, from 12-inch portable pads to 16-inch professional slabs. But to be honest, compared to the standard monitors I use for daily work, even those felt a bit cramped. It got me thinking: is there a larger canvas available that truly allows for expansive, natural digital creation? That brings us to the subject of today’s in-depth review—the XPPen Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2).
This monumental display is not only the largest pen display we’ve ever tested but also, by a significant margin, the heaviest. It begs the question: why are professional-grade creative displays finally pushing into this larger territory, and is bigger always better? Let’s find out.

Hardware Specifications
The Artist Pro series has always been known for its robust specs, and the 27 (Gen 2) is no exception. This 27-inch panel is a powerhouse, packing a crisp 3840 x 2160 4K resolution and a buttery-smooth 120Hz refresh rate. The implication here is clear: the visual fluidity is so good, you could theoretically game on it without issue (though its primary mission is creation).
Color performance is where it truly matters for creative work, and this screen delivers. It boasts 99% coverage of both Adobe RGB and sRGB color gamuts, along with 97% coverage of DCI-P3. This makes it well-suited for professional photography, video editing, and design tasks where color accuracy is non-negotiable.
XPPen includes a factory calibration report for the Adobe RGB color space with each unit. Our review sample posted an average Delta E of just 0.97, with a maximum variance of only 3.0. These are excellent numbers, confirming that the screen is color-accurate and reliable straight out of the box. With a typical brightness of 350 nits, it’s perfectly adequate for well-lit indoor studio environments, though it might struggle a bit in very bright, sun-drenched rooms.
Connectivity & Interface
To drive this high-resolution behemoth, the Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2) includes three video input options: a full-sized DisplayPort, an HDMI port, and a USB-C port that supports display signals. On the output side, things are spartan—just a single 3.5mm audio jack. Honestly, given the generous real estate on this massive display, we were hoping for at least one USB-A port. A built-in hub would be perfect for plugging in a 2.4GHz wireless receiver for a mouse or a flash drive, but as it stands, you’ll need to reach for your computer or a separate hub.
Our testing also revealed some quirks with the USB-C connectivity. When pushing the display at its full 4K 120Hz capability, the chroma subsampling defaults to YCbCr 422 instead of the preferred full RGB. This is likely a bandwidth limitation of the specific USB-C implementation. Fortunately, the slight reduction in color precision is very difficult to perceive with the naked eye during normal use. Interestingly, we didn’t encounter this limitation when connected to a Mac. It’s also worth noting that the USB-C port does not provide power delivery. If you’re connecting a laptop, you’ll need to keep it plugged into its own power source, adding another cable to the mix.
The Stylus & Accessories: Familiar Precision, New Ergonomics
The Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2) ships with XPPen’s latest stylus technology: the X3 Pro Smart Chip Stylus, featuring a staggering 16,384 levels of pressure sensitivity. Quantifying the leap from 4K or 8K sensitivity to 16K is difficult, but if you’re coming from a device like a Samsung S-Pen (which typically uses 4,096 levels), the difference is monumental. Mathematically, the X3 Pro offers 400% more pressure sensitivity. In practice, this translates to an incredibly nuanced range of expression, from the lightest wisp of a sketch to a bold, heavy stroke.
Included in the box is a second, alternative stylus: the X3 Pro Slim Stylus. As the name suggests, it’s noticeably thinner and lighter, tipping the scales at a mere 10 grams compared to the standard pen’s 16 grams. This reduced weight can significantly reduce hand fatigue during marathon creative sessions, allowing for longer periods of comfortable work.
The Slim Stylus also features a unique, clever design: its side button is removable. By gently prying it off, you can transform the pen into a completely seamless, button-free cylinder. This is a fantastic option for artists who prefer to rely solely on keyboard shortcuts or who find themselves accidentally pressing the barrel button.
A quick note on customization: the XPPen Tablet driver software allows you to assign different pressure curves, shortcut functions, and pen-side button commands to each stylus independently, letting you tailor the experience to your specific workflow.
Display Experience: Immersion and Fluidity
The panel quality on the Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2) is undeniably flagship-grade. The 27-inch 4K IPS display boasts a pixel density of 163 PPI. At a typical创作 distance, pixelation is virtually invisible. Lines are razor-sharp, and fine details in high-resolution photographs or intricate illustrations are rendered with exceptional clarity. In our viewing tests, color gradations were smooth and free of visible banding. The combination of the high resolution and wide color gamut delivers a deeply immersive visual experience.
The 120Hz refresh rate is a game-changer for a pen display. The smoothness is immediately apparent—scrolling through a massive canvas or executing fast, gestural brushstrokes feels incredibly fluid and responsive. There’s a complete absence of the distracting “stutter” or ghosting you might see on lower-refresh-rate displays. This high-refresh experience genuinely elevates the feeling of direct, real-time interaction with your digital artwork.
To ensure this great image isn’t ruined by glare, XPPen has applied an anti-glare (AG) nano-etched glass surface and an anti-fingerprint (AF) coating. Working under typical lighting, reflections from overhead lights or windows are drastically reduced. The AF coating also does a commendable job of resisting smudges and oily fingerprints, keeping the screen cleaner during long work sessions.
Perhaps most importantly for a drawing tablet, the surface texture provides a pleasing “toothy” feel. It offers just the right amount of drag, closely mimicking the sensation of drawing on fine-grained paper. It’s neither too slick and slippery like bare glass, nor is it overly rough. This tactile feedback is crucial for a natural and controlled drawing experience.
Stand & Ergonomics: Rock-Solid but Space-Hungry
Given its 27-inch stature, a stable and robust stand is non-negotiable. The stand included with the Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2) is exceptionally sturdy. It offers 11 levels of tilt adjustment, allowing you to find the perfect angle for drawing, whether you prefer a more traditional, slightly inclined drafting position or a flatter surface for working in a more relaxed posture.
The heavy, well-weighted base provides incredible stability. You can bear down on the screen with significant force while drawing, and the entire unit remains completely rock-solid. There’s no wobble or feeling of top-heaviness whatsoever. The trade-off, however, is a substantial desk footprint. You’ll need to ensure you have ample space to accommodate this large base.
A Note on Portrait Mode: While the monitor can physically be rotated 90 degrees into a vertical orientation, it’s not a seamless process. To use it in portrait mode, you must first detach the screen from its stand, rotate it, and then reattach it. More importantly, the included rubber feet on the bottom of the stand are designed for landscape use only. If you were to place the stand on its side for portrait orientation, the feet would be incorrectly positioned, making it look odd and compromising its slip-resistant function. Therefore, the intended primary use case is clearly landscape. For users who absolutely need a native portrait mode or prefer a different ergonomic setup, the back of the display features a standard VESA 100x100mm mounting pattern, making it compatible with a wide range of aftermarket monitor arms and stands.
Drawing Experience: The Pen Meets the Canvas
The X3 Pro styluses finally feel like they have room to breathe on the 27-inch canvas. The sheer size of the display is its greatest asset—it allows for much more natural, expansive arm movements. Your wrist is no longer the primary pivot point, making for a much more ergonomic and fluid drawing experience. Whether you’re blocking in large areas of color in an illustration or meticulously retouching a high-res photo, the space is liberating.
The 16K levels of pressure sensitivity, in practice, offer an incredibly fine level of control. The most immediate sensation is the ability to register the lightest possible touch, producing a faint, delicate line with zero effort. Conversely, bearing down yields a rich, substantial stroke. While it takes some time to truly harness this level of nuance, for users accustomed to lower-resolution pressure sensitivity, the upgrade in expressive potential is vast. Lag is virtually non-existent; XPPen’s driver algorithms have matured nicely, resulting in a cursor that feels tightly coupled to the pen tip with minimal to no parallax.
Using the Slim Stylus for extended periods does noticeably reduce hand fatigue. Its 10-gram weight makes it feel almost like a high-quality ballpoint pen, and the removable button is a genuinely thoughtful touch for those who prefer a minimalist grip.
Software & Drivers: Comprehensive Control
The XPPen Tablet driver software remains a robust and feature-rich control center. It allows for deep customization, including setting independent pressure curves, hover distance, and button functions for each of the two pens. The ability to create application-specific profiles is a powerful productivity booster. You can have a firm pressure curve dialed in for precise line work in Photoshop and a softer curve for painterly effects in Corel Painter, with the driver switching automatically when you switch applications. Essential screen calibration tools are also included to ensure perfect alignment between the pen tip and the cursor across the entire display.
The Verdict: A Specialized Tool for the Discerning Pro
The XPPen Artist Pro 27 (Gen 2) is a monumental pen display designed for professionals who demand the ultimate in canvas size and fluid performance. It effectively solves the “cramped wrist” problem inherent in smaller tablets. The combination of a stunning 4K resolution, a silky-smooth 120Hz refresh rate, and a rock-solid 99% Adobe RGB gamut sets a new benchmark for visual and operational excellence in this category.
However, this level of performance comes with caveats:
Size and Weight: Its massive dimensions and weight (approximately 7kg / 15.4 lbs) demand a sturdy, spacious desk and careful handling.
USB-C Limitations: The USB-C port has bandwidth constraints (leading to chroma subsampling at 4K 120Hz) and lacks power delivery. For the best video signal, using DisplayPort or HDMI is recommended.
Lack of USB Hub: The absence of a built-in USB-A port for peripherals like dongles or flash drives is a notable inconvenience, requiring an external hub.
Stand Limitations: While very stable, the stand offers only tilt adjustment. The official design doesn’t elegantly support portrait mode, pushing users with that need towards third-party VESA mounts.

Gaming PCs are usually about power and size, but every now and then, someone tries the opposite. A recent experiment shows just how far things have come, with a setup that is small enough to fit in your pocket and still capable of running actual games.
YouTuber Lecctron set out to build the world’s smallest gaming PC, with one simple goal. It should be able to run Minecraft. That already rules out some of the tiniest boards out there, since many of them cannot easily connect to a display. In the end, he went with the Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W, which can be found for as little as $15.
The board itself is tiny, measuring just 65 x 30 mm. It runs on a quad-core ARM Cortex-A53 chip at 1GHz, paired with VideoCore IV graphics and 512MB of RAM. It is not much on paper, but it is enough to run a full operating system and connect basic peripherals.
The results are better than you might expect. Minecraft Pi Edition runs at around 60FPS in Creative Mode with reduced settings, which is impressive for something this small. PlayStation 1 emulation works even better, with games like Doom, Wipeout XL, Silent Hill, Tomb Raider Chronicles, and Final Fantasy IX running smoothly.
Things start to get a bit inconsistent with Nintendo 64 games. Titles like Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask are playable, but there are occasional frame drops. PSP emulation depends heavily on the game. Simpler titles like LocoRoco run well, while more demanding ones such as Wipeout Pulse struggle to maintain smooth performance.
Of course, this is not here to replace a proper gaming PC. Modern games need far more power than what a board like this can offer. Still, that is not really the point here.
For retro gaming, emulation, or just experimenting, the Pi Zero 2 W turns out to be surprisingly capable. It is cheap, easy to work with, and small enough to fit almost anywhere, which makes it a fun little platform to play around with.
Samsung describes the Odyssey G8 as the world’s first 6K gaming monitor. The 32-inch monitor features a 6K (6144 x 3456) IPS panel with a 165Hz refresh rate. It also offers a 3K (3072 x 1728) resolution mode with an ultra-fast 330Hz refresh rate.
The Odyssey G8 G80HS provides a dense 224 PPI for sharper image quality and supports high dynamic range (HDR) with HDR10+ Gaming. Samsung says this enhances brightness and contrast in real-time, showing dark shadows and bright highlights with greater clarity. The screen achieves 99% sRGB coverage, delivering vivid colors across a wide viewing angle of 178 degrees.
The monitor features a 1ms GtG response time for smooth motion and supports both Nvidia G-Sync and AMD FreeSync Premium to minimize screen tearing. It also includes a 1,000:1 static contrast ratio and a peak brightness of 350 nits.
Samsung has included several connectivity options for the Odyssey G8. The monitor features two HDMI 2.1 ports, one DisplayPort 2.1, and a USB hub with multiple ports. The ergonomic stand supports height, tilt, swivel, and pivot adjustments to enhance comfort during long gaming sessions. The device lacks built-in speakers, but it includes a headphone jack for external audio solutions.
The monitor features a sleek black finish with VESA mounting compatibility. It weighs 7.4 kg with the stand and ships with a factory calibration report for accurate out-of-the-box performance.
Vivo has added another phone to its Y-series lineup in China with the launch of the Vivo Y500s. The new model arrives shortly after the Vivo Y6t. The device is budget-oriented, but features a large battery with decent fast charging and a respectable processor.
Vivo Y500s
Vivo Y500s features
The Vivo Y500s uses the Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset, a 4nm processor also seen on the recently launched Vivo Y6t. It is paired with up to 12GB of RAM and up to 512GB of internal storage. Vivo is selling the phone in three configurations: 8GB + 256GB, 12GB + 256GB, and 8GB + 512GB.
On the front, the phone features a 6.75-inch LCD display with a 1570 x 720 pixel resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate. The resolution keeps it in budget territory, but the high refresh rate should make scrolling and general use smoother than standard 60Hz panels.
The biggest upgrade over the Y6t appears to be the rear camera. Vivo has equipped the Y500s with a 50MP primary camera, though the company has not detailed the sensor. For selfies and video calls, the Y500s gets an 8MP front camera with an f/2.1 aperture. Battery capacity is another major part of the package. The Vivo Y500s packs a 7,200mAh battery with support for 44W wired charging.
Pricing & availability
The Vivo Y500s starts at CNY 1,800, around $265, for the 8GB + 256GB version. The 12GB + 256GB and 8GB + 512GB variants are both priced at CNY 2,200, around $320. The phone is available in black, gold, and silver, and is now listed for purchase in China through Vivo’s online store.
