Oppo K13 Turbo launch timeframe
Oppo K13 Turbo launch timeframe for China
To recall, Oppo recently unveiled the Oppo K12s as the last K12-series phone in China. There have been rumours that the brand is prepping a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4-powered, performance-focused smartphone dubbed the Oppo K13 Turbo for the home market. The said device is expected to rival the likes of the iQOO Z10 Turbo and Redmi Turbo 4 Pro.

Honor teased the arrival of the Honor X9b phone in February in India, but it hasn’t gone official yet. The last teaser of the phone came out on March 12 and the official ExploreHonor X account hasn’t posted anything new after April 22. These things and along a message that seemingly came from Explore Honor Team Admin suggested that the Explorer has ceased its operations in India. However, a new development coming from Honor India reveals that the brand is active and plans to launch new phones in the coming months.
Honor to launch four new phones in India soon
To recall, Honor unveiled the Honor 9A and 9S in July 2020 and after that it did not launch any new phone in India. However, it did not completely vanish from the Indian market as it continued to launch other products like wearables and tablets. Honor officially returned to India as Honor Tech India (Explore Honor) in August 2023, marked by the announcement of its relaunch under a licensing deal with PSAV Global, led by CEO Madhav Sheth. After its return, it launched the Honor 90 in September 2023.
However, recent developments suggested that brand once again stopped its operations in India. While Sheth is now associated with brand Alcatel as well as he is a founder and CEO of NxtQuantum Shift Technologies and plans to launch new phones under “NxtQuantum” branding, he is also associated with Honor. On April 8, he posted that “he met the Honor Team to align on new strategies and the road ahead” and later added that “Honor has received approvals for launching five products in India.”
It was exciting to meet with the Honor Team to align on new strategies and the road ahead.
As mentioned above, a supposed message from Explore Honor Team Admin that surfaced last week suggested that Honor has exited India once again. However, a recent X post states that, “Honor’s isn’t going anywhere or merging with any other brand.”
Readers should note that the above message is from Honor India, not Explore Honor. The brand has clarified that it remains fully committed to the Indian market, countering recent rumors of a potential exit. The speculation, which surfaced across media and social platforms, has been dismissed by CP Khandelwal, Brand Custodian for Honor India, who confirmed via X (formerly Twitter) that “Honor India is here – and thriving.”
He also revealed that the brand is preparing to launch four new smartphones soon. Honor emphasized that India continues to be a strategic market for its global expansion, with ongoing investments in innovation and product development. The company is actively operating in India and plans to strengthen its presence further. This statement reaffirms Honor’s intent to grow alongside Indian consumers and continue offering cutting-edge technology.

The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) and Moto G 5G (2025) are excellent budget smartphones. They come with large screens, hefty 5,000mAh batteries, and capable chipsets that deliver smooth performance — all without breaking the bank. But which offers the best value for your money? Let’s dive into the comparison to find out.
Let’s begin with a spec sheet before we dig deeper:
Moto G Stylus 5G (2024)
Moto G 5G (2025)
Release
May 2024
Jan 2025
Dimensions Weight
162.6 x 74.8 x 8.3 mm 201 g
167.1 x 76.3 x 8.2 mm 193 g
Display
6.7″ P-OLED 1080 x 2400 pixels resolution 120Hz refresh rate
The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) has a price tag of $299, down from its launch price of $399. The Moto G 5G (2025) saves you another $100, as it’s currently available for $199. The real question is if the 2024’s Moto G Stylus 5G justifies an additional $100 bucks, or is the latest Moto G 5G good to go? You’ll find it very soon as you go through the article.
Both smartphones are widely available across the US and Canada. The Moto G Stylus comes in two color options: Scarlet Wave and Caramel Latte, and the Moto G 5G (2025) comes in Forest Gray and Sapphire Blue options.
Both Motorola phones have flat screens with hole-punch-style selfie cameras, but the Moto G Stylus has more uniform bezels compared to the Moto G 5G (2025), which has noticeably thicker bezels at the bottom. Both phones, however, offer the same leather finish on the back, adding a premium touch and better grip than a traditional glass back.
Both Motorola phones feature large 6.7-inch screens with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate, yet they have notable differences. The Moto G Stylus’ OLED screen produces more vibrant colors with greater color accuracy and clarity compared to the LCD panel on the Moto G 5G (2025). The higher 1080p resolution on the Moto G Stylus (versus 720p) further improves the viewing experience.
Camera
The 50MP primary camera on both Motorola phones captures nice, detailed shots when there’s enough light around. The Moto G Stylus 5G also does a good job with low-light shots using the 50MP primary sensor for its price. It produces detailed images with good exposure and colors with effective noise reduction.
On the other hand, the Moto G (2025) struggles with low-light images. The results are inconsistent with little details. You’d see blur and noise more often. It also has a 2MP macro camera with an underwhelming performance. The close-up shots are generally poor, lacking fine details. The Moto G (2025) also features a depth sensor, which is as good as nothing.
The 13MP ultrawide snapper on the Moto G Stylus 5G (2025) produces solid results in good lighting. The images have accurate colors, good dynamic range, and low noise. It also enables macro photography, which results in detailed images with good colors and sharpness.
The other side brings a 32MP selfie camera, which captures excellent shots for its price. The results have plenty of detail, accurate color representation, and natural skin tones. The camera also maintains a wide dynamic range. On the other hand, the Moto G 5G (2025) has a decent selfie camera performance with okay-ish color accuracy. The camera struggles to keep more than one subject in focus and often produces noisy and blurry shots in low-light environments.
Performance and software
The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) has a Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 (4nm) at its heart, which offers higher performance and efficiency compared to the Dimensity 6300 (6nm) on the Moto G 5G (2025).

The Moto G Stylus 5G (2025) clearly outperforms the Moto G 5G (2025) across all benchmarks. In Geekbench 6, the Stylus model posts significantly higher scores in both single-core and multi-core performance, indicating snappier everyday performance and better multitasking.
The gap widens further in AnTuTu v10, where the Moto G Stylus 5G scores over 553,000, compared to just 382,000 on the Moto G 5G. It leads in all major categories—CPU, GPU, memory, and UX—making it the better choice for gaming, app loading, and overall responsiveness.
The 3DMark Extreme Stress Test results also favor the Stylus variant, with the best loop score of 612 versus 383 on the Moto G 5G, highlighting much stronger and more stable GPU performance under sustained load.
Battery, charging, and others
Both Motorola smartphones bring 5,000mAh batteries that easily give you enough power for a full day. On light usage, you can stretch into the next day.
The phones also bring the same 30W charging speed via a USB-C port. It usually takes around an hour and 15 minutes to reach 100%.
One feature that separates the two here is the 15W wireless charging support on the Stylus model. The other device lacks wireless charging.
Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) vs Moto G 5G (2025): Conclusion
At the end of the day, both the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) and the Moto G 5G (2025) are solid picks for budget-conscious buyers — but they’re built for slightly different users. If you’re looking for the best possible performance, a vibrant OLED display, better cameras, and perks like wireless charging, the Stylus model easily justifies its $100 premium. It’s simply more refined in nearly every area.
On the other hand, if you’re tight on budget and just need a reliable phone for everyday tasks, calls, and casual browsing, the Moto G 5G (2025) gets the job done for $199. Just don’t expect the same performance or camera quality.

Both displays are sharp and colorful, offering fluid touch response and excellent visibility. With an IP68 rating, the device is water and dust-resistant, and Gorilla Glass Victus protection adds extra durability.

Camera and Photography
Photography lovers will enjoy the dual 50MP rear cameras, a primary sensor with OIS and a 2x telephoto lens with PDAF and OIS for sharper zoom shots. The 32MP front camera captures sharp selfies and supports advanced facial recognition. The camera system is capable of producing bright, detailed images in both day and night conditions.

According to a new leak shared by the account HMD Meme on X, HMD Global is preparing to release the second-generation Vibe phone. The Vibe 2 appears to bean entry-level device but comes with a handful of upgrades over the original model.
HMD Vibe 2 Specifications
It will reportedly be powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 processor, replacing the Snapdragon 680 on the original Vibe. This will be paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, with an option to expand it up to 512GB via microSD card.
Visually, the Vibe 2 appears to carry forward the design language HMD has been applying across its portfolio. On the front, the phone is said to sport a 6.67-inch OLED panel with FHD+ resolution, 90Hz refresh rate, and HDR10 support.
The front camera is expected to be a 50MP sensor, which would be a major upgrade over the 5MP shooter found on the original Vibe.
Around back, HMD is expected to include a dual camera setup with a 50MP primary sensor and a secondary 2MP sensor, likely for depth or macro photography. Powering all of this will be a 5000mAh battery, with support for 33W wired charging. The phone is also said to run Android 15 out of the box.
Compared to the first-generation Vibe, which shipped with a 6.55-inch 720p LCD, 3GB or 6GB of RAM, and only 10W charging for its 4000mAh battery, the Vibe 2 appears to offer improvements across the board. But it’s still clearly aimed at the lower end of the market, especially in the US, where affordable Android phones are often limited in availability and update support.
There’s no word yet on pricing or exact availability, but with leaks now surfacing, an official announcement may not be far off.
The latest leak about the Motorola Moto G56 reveals three of its four Pantone color options alongside its design. Priced at €250 for the 8GB/256GB variant, it’s set to launch soon with Android 15 and a 5,200mAh battery, per recent reports.
Motorola’s Moto G56, codenamed “Bogota,” has surfaced with fresh renders, showcasing the complete design and three vibrant Pantone colors: Black Oyster, Dazzling Blue, and Dill. Dazzling Blue steals the show with multi-angle views. While it still features a dual-camera setup, the camera housing mimics the more premium Edge series. It also retains the headphone jack from the G55—a key feature for budget-conscious buyers. Unfortunately, the bottom bezel is still quite thick and may take some time for users shifting from a more expensive device to get used to it.
The G56 reportedly boasts IP68/IP69 dust and water resistance and MIL-STD-810H durability, an upgrade over the predecessor’s water repellent design. It sports a 6.72-inch FHD+ LCD with a 120Hz refresh rate, 1,000-nit brightness, and Gorilla Glass 7i protection, up from the G55’s 6.49-inch panel. Powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 7060 SoC (vs Dimensity 7025 on the predecessor), it offers 4GB/8GB RAM and 128GB/256GB storage.
The Moto G56’s camera setup reportedly includes a 50MP Sony LYT-600 main sensor (f/1.8), an 8MP ultrawide, and a 32MP selfie shooter, a notable upgrade from the G55’s 16MP front camera. The stereo speakers are paired with Dolby Atmos, and the 5,200mAh battery supports 33W charging.
Running Android 15, the 4GB model will reportedly get one OS update and three years of security patches, while the 8GB variant secures two OS upgrades and four years of security fixes. Expected to launch soon alongside the Moto G86 5G, possibly skipping India like the G55, the G56’s refreshed design and vibrant colors make it a compelling mid-ranger.
Anker is known for its accessories and it has just announced a brand new version of the Prime power bank. The Anker Prime 20,000mAh Power Bank (200W) is getting a refresh that allows for faster charging. So here’s specs, pricing, and more.
Anker 20,000mAh Prime Power Bank: What’s new?
To recall, Anker’s Prime range of power banks are popular for their large capacities and fast charging support that can even power bigger gadgets like laptops. The newest model is basically an upgraded model that brings a notable improvement to the charging speeds. While the last model had a similar design and capacity, it only offered up to 30W of charging. So it didn’t even meet the Super Fast Charging 2.0 offered on Samsung Galaxy devices.
Anker Prime 20,000mAh Power Bank (200W)
But the latest edition upgrades this to 45W from its USB Type-C port. In other words, any model with 45W wired fast charging support will get access to their full charging potential with this accessory. Keep in mind that this speed is from the USB-C port. Technically, it does support 100W maximum output but it is only available with PD fast charging protocol.
As of right now, the Anker Prime 20,000mAh Power Bank (200W) is listed for purchase on the brand’s official website or Amazon for 129.99 US Dollars. The company has not officially announced these upgrades, but these were spotted on Reddit (Via NotebookCheck). In related news, Anker recently announced the Nebula X1 4K laser projector, which supports Dolby Vision. Back in April 2025, the brand’s Soundcore Liberty TWS 5 earbuds were officially announced with LDAC support and improved ANC.

Honor is stirring the pot in the smartphone world again—this time by throwing shade at Samsung’s latest flagship. It has released a bold teaser comparing its Magic V3 foldable to the recently unveiled Galaxy S25 Edge, and it’s clearly not impressed by Samsung’s slimness claims.
Samsung touted the Galaxy S25 Edge as its thinnest phone yet, measuring just 5.8mm thick. The tagline “beyond slim” was front and center during its unveiling, backed by flagship specs like a 200MP camera, Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, and a rather small 3900mAh battery—all packed into that ultra-thin profile.
But Honor had other ideas. In a teaser for the Magic V3, the company compared thickness—specifically the unfolded thickness of its foldable device, which comes in at just 4.35mm. That makes it noticeably slimmer than the S25 Edge.
Honor didn’t just stop at numbers. It followed up with a pointed question: “Why thin if you’re making compromises to get there?” The slogan “THIN without the catch” appeared alongside, implying that Samsung may have made trade-offs in battery capacity or other hardware areas to achieve its design goals. To emphasize the point, Honor highlighted the Magic V3’s 5150mAh battery—a significant bump over the 3900mAh unit in the S25 Edge.
Of course, the comparison isn’t entirely apples to apples. The Magic V3 is a foldable, and its unfolded thickness doesn’t reflect its closed profile. The S25 Edge, on the other hand, is a conventional slab-style phone. Still, this kind of marketing clash is becoming common in the premium segment.
Whether consumers care more about battery size, form factor, or design philosophy, this back-and-forth is a sign that competition is heating up in 2025’s flagship smartphone race.

At COMPUTEX 2025, MSI introduced two new 27-inch QD-OLED gaming monitors: the MPG 271QR QD-OLED X50 and the MAG 272QP QD-OLED X50. Both models feature Samsung’s latest 3rd-gen QD-OLED panels, a 500Hz refresh rate, 0.03ms response time, and WQHD (2560 x 1440) resolution.
MSI MPG 271QR QD-OLED X50
The MPG 271QR QD-OLED X50 includes an AI Care Sensor that uses a CMOS sensor and an NPU-based chip to detect if someone is in front of the screen. It captures images every 0.2 seconds. If no user is detected, the monitor powers down or activates OLED protection features to reduce the risk of screen burn-in and save power. It also includes MSI’s AI Navigator, which gives access to all AI settings through a single menu. This setup helps maintain the screen and cuts down on energy use without needing manual adjustments.
This monitor is certified with VESA ClearMR 21000 and DisplayHDR True Black 500. The WQHD resolution offers nearly twice the pixel density of Full HD, providing sharper visuals. With true blacks, strong contrast, and smooth motion handling, it’s made for fast-paced games like first-person shooters and racing titles.
MSI MAG 272QP QD-OLED X50
The MAG 272QP QD-OLED X50 is MSI’s first esports-focused QD-OLED monitor. It shares the same core specs: WQHD resolution, 500Hz refresh rate, and 0.03ms response time. It supports 99 percent of the DCI-P3 color space and has the same VESA certifications. While it does not include the AI Care Sensor, it still offers top-tier motion clarity and fast performance, making it suitable for professional gaming setups.
Pricing & availability
The MAG 272QP QD-OLED X50 is priced at CNY 5,999 (around $829) and is available in China starting May 16. MSI has not announced the price or global availability for the MPG 271QR QD-OLED X50 yet.
A new model in the Xiaomi Pad 7 series might debut soon. The Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro first surfaced a couple of months ago, now a fresh leak has revealed its flagship positioning. This hints at some high end specs and features, so here’s everything we know so far.
Premium Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro launching soon?
The Chinese tech giant’s upcoming Pad 7S Pro was first spotted on the 3C certification back in March 2025. While the listing did not reveal a lot of details, it did confirm support for 120W wired fast charging and its 25053RP5CC model numbers. These specs already hinted at a high end tablet, but known tipster Digital Chat Station, confirmed a few more details ahead of any official announcement.
Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro
The latest info was shared on a Weibo (a Chinese microblogging website) post, where DCS claimed that the Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro is positioned as a flagship model. He further adds that the tablet supports 120W fast charging and sport a tall 12.5-inch display. The type of screen technology is still unknown, but it could be an OLED panel or at least a 2K+ resolution LCD screen. As the name suggests, the tablet is the direct successor of the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro.
To recall, the Xiaomi Pad 6S Pro (Review) was announced back in 2024 with a 12.4-inch display with a 3.2K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and 900 nits of peak brightness. Under the hood, this model featured the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. While it wasn’t the latest processor at the time, it still offered high end performance. In other words, the Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro may arrive with either the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 or Snapdragon 8s Gen 4. Keep in mind that this is still just speculation, so take this with a pinch of salt.
