Motorola Edge 60 Pro Roundup: Design, Processor, Camera, Battery & More

Motorola’s annual Edge refresh is already underway with the recent debut of the Edge 60 Fusion. But that’s not the only phone in the pipeline—two more models are expected to join the lineup soon: the Edge 60 and the higher-end Edge 60 Pro.

As the name suggests, the Edge 60 Pro sits at the top of the stack. And thanks to a TENAA certification listing out of China, we now have a fairly complete look at what to expect. Here’s a quick breakdown of what the Edge 60 Pro is likely bringing to the table.

Motorola Edge 50 Pro

1. A Familiar Face

Motorola Edge 60 Pro TENAA images

Based on images from the TENAA listing, the Motorola Edge 60 Pro doesn’t reinvent the design wheel. It still has a faux leather finish on the back with a soft-edged square camera module. 

The front is built around a 6.67-inch OLED display with curved sides, which is a now-signature look for Motorola’s Edge series. The panel features a crisp 1.5K resolution and has a fingerprint scanner underneath. 

From the front, the phone looks premium and modern, with minimal bezels and a centered punch-hole selfie camera. The screen curves smoothly into the chassis, making the phone feel sleeker than the numbers might suggest. 

At just 7.25mm thick, the Edge 60 Pro is actually slimmer than the standard Edge 60, which will come in at 7.95mm. And despite its larger battery (more on that in a second), it still weighs a manageable 188 grams, just a few grams heavier than the base model. 

Interestingly, the Pro model features an unknown physical button that hasn’t been seen on previous Motorola phones. It’s not yet clear whether it’s a dedicated camera shutter, a shortcut to AI features, or something else entirely. But it certainly seems like Motorola might be experimenting with something new this time around. 

2. Performance

Now, let’s talk about performance. The Edge 60 Pro will be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 8350 SoC with a top clock speed of 3.35GHz. And the memory options will include 8/12/16GB of RAM with 128/256/512GB and 1TB storage. 

We don’t have benchmark numbers for the Edge 60 Pro just yet, but several phones with the same chip are already out in the wild. For instance, the Oppo Reno 13 5G with the Dimensity 8350 hits around 1,134,729 points on AnTuTu and posts 1324 single-core and 4073 multi-core scores on Geekbench 6.

All in all, you can expect smooth day-to-day performance and some light gaming without much trouble. For a detailed look at how this chip performs, check out our full Reno 13 review.

3. Battery and Cameras

Motorola seems to be making a big jump when it comes to Edge 60 Pro’s battery. It packs a massive 6,000mAh cell which is 1500mAh more than what you get on its predecessor. 

But while the battery is getting a boost, Motorola is dialing things back slightly on charging speeds. Instead of the 125W fast charging found on the Edge 50 Pro, the Edge 60 Pro only supports 90W wired charging. Still, that should be more than enough to deliver a full charge in under an hour.  

We can also keep the wireless charging option in cards given that last year’s model supported it as well. Leading the pack is a 50MP main sensor, joined by a 13MP ultrawide and a third, yet-to-be-confirmed lens. It is likely a telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom. Up front, the phone has a 32MP selfie camera. 

4. Rest of the specs

At this point, pricing and software are the only pieces missing. Motorola hasn’t confirmed the launch date yet, but the TENAA certification is usually a sign that the launch is imminent. At least in China. A global or Indian launch could follow shortly after.

As for software, Motorola has been relatively consistent with offering near-stock Android with a few meaningful customizations. Features like Moto Gestures, Peek Display, and selective personalization have made its Android experience feel light and user-friendly, and we expect the Edge 60 Pro to continue in that direction.

Infinix is launching a scented phone in India on April 18 under Rs 20,000

Following closely behind the Note 50x launch, Infinix is preparing to unveil another smartphone in its Note 50 series in India. The Note 50s 5G+ has already been teased to arrive in three color options: Titanium Grey, Ruby Red, and Marine Drift Blue.

Of these, the latter is particularly interesting as Infinix claims it comes equipped with microencapsulation technology, which will imbue the phone with a long-lasting fragrance.

The company has now confirmed the launch date for the aromatic device in India. The Infinix Note 50s 5G+ is set to debut on April 18.

How does this scent tech work?

Infinix is marketing the technology as Energizing Scent-Tech. This process traps fragrance molecules within microscopic capsules, which are embedded in the phone’s vegan leather back panel. As a result, the phone gradually releases a light, refreshing scent over time.

According to Infinix, the scent is designed to be subtle and long-lasting, though its intensity and duration may vary depending on how the phone is used and environmental factors like temperature and humidity. The company claims the fragrance will last for up to six months.

Xiaomi’s investigation, based on vehicle data submitted to police, outlines the sequence of events:

  • 10:27:17 PM: NOA activated; vehicle speed at 116 km/h (72 mph).
  • 10:44:24 PM: System detected obstacles, issued warnings, and began decelerating.
  • 10:44:25 PM: Driver took manual control, steering 22.0625 degrees left, braking at 31%.
  • 10:44:26 PM: Steering adjusted 1.0625 degrees right, braking increased to 38%.
  • 10:44:26–10:44:28 PM: Vehicle hit a concrete guardrail at 97 km/h (60 mph), followed by a fire.

Post-Collision Details

Social media reports, including a Douyin post by a victim’s mother, claimed the doors locked automatically post-crash, trapping the occupants as the car burned. Xiaomi could not verify door functionality, noting an emergency unlock button exists, but its effectiveness remains unclear. The NOA system’s inability to detect smaller obstacles like cones may have been a factor.

Company Response and Impact

Xiaomi formed an investigation team on March 30, submitting data by March 31. CEO Lei Jun expressed regret and promised transparency and support for the victims’ families.

The company said it formed a special task force immediately, visited the scene on March 30, and submitted vehicle data to police on March 31. Xiaomi clarified it has not yet been granted access to the accident vehicle, dismissing rumours that it had been transported to Beijing. According to internal data, the Xiaomi SU7 was in NOA assisted driving mode at around 116 km/h before issuing a warning and slowing down to 97 km/h before crashing.

The cause of the post-crash fire is still under investigation, but Xiaomi believes it likely began in the cabin, not the battery. The company also stated that AEB (automatic emergency braking) did not activate because the obstacle—a water barrier—is not currently supported by the system’s detection capabilities.

Ongoing Investigation

One UI 8 based on Android 16 to debut first on Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7

Samsung’s Galaxy S series typically sets the pace for new One UI releases, with each year’s flagship arriving alongside the latest version of the software. For instance, One UI 7 debuted with the Galaxy S25 series, One UI 6 launched with the S23, and One UI 5 came with the S22.

But that pattern may shift this year. A new report claims the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 could be the first to ship with One UI 8, which will be based on Android 16.

The shift likely ties into Google’s timeline. Google will release the stable version of Android 16 earlier this year, in June or July. This timing overlaps with Samsung’s annual foldable refresh, so it’s plausible the company will kick off One UI 8 with its foldable lineup instead of the Galaxy S series. 

The report also aligns with earlier leaks pointing to internal testing of One UI 8 already being underway.

Samsung’s rollout of One UI 7 has also been unusually sluggish this year. Even the eligible Galaxy S-series phones have not received the update yet. At this point, it looks like the company might skip its typical .1 or .1.1 incremental releases and jump straight from One UI 7.0 to One UI 8.0.

What to expect from upcoming foldables?

Both the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 have surfaced in leaked renders that reveal the design changes.

 For the Z Fold 7, Samsung is making it noticeably slimmer—just 4.5mm thick when unfolded—which brings it in line with the thinnest foldable out there.

The Z Flip 7, on the other hand, appears to be ditching the folder-style cover display that’s defined the Flip series so far. Instead, it’s switching to a full cover screen, interrupted only by the dual camera cutouts.

Both foldable are expected to run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. As for the rest of the specs, the Z Flip 7 is tipped to get a slightly larger 4,300mAh battery (up from 4,000mAh), while the Z Fold 7 may stick with its current 4,400mAh cell.

Xiaomi’s In-House Chipset Specs Leaked — Here’s What’s Inside

After stepping back from chip development in the past, Xiaomi is reportedly preparing for a renewed push into the in-house System on Chip (SoC) space. A recent leak has offered a closer look at what could be the company’s next attempt at building its own smartphone processor.

Xiaomi SoC

Despite earlier rumors hinting at a cutting-edge 3nm design, tipster Fixed Focus Digital (via Jukanlosreve on X) claims that Xiaomi’s first Arm v9-based chip will instead use TSMC’s N4P node. This more mature and cost-effective process suggests that Xiaomi is aiming for a balanced approach, focusing on both performance and production efficiency as it makes a serious return to chipmaking.

The leaked specs point to an octa-core CPU configuration in a 1+3+4 setup. It includes one high-performance Cortex X925 core clocked at 3.2GHz, three Cortex A725 cores at 2.6GHz, and four power-efficient Cortex A520 cores running at 2.0GHz. While this doesn’t signal flagship-level power, it appears well-positioned for upper mid-range devices, possibly debuting in the rumored Xiaomi 15S, expected in 2025.

Xiaomi in-house Soc specs leak

On the graphics side, the SoC is said to feature an Imagination Technologies IMG DXT72 GPU running at 1.3GHz. Surprisingly, early estimates suggest it could even outperform the Adreno 740 found in the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, indicating solid graphics potential.

Xiaomi is also expected to integrate its own Image Signal Processor (ISP), while other components like the 5G modem and DSP may be sourced from MediaTek, Synopsys, or even Huawei, depending on availability and geopolitical factors.

Developing an in-house SoC aligns with Xiaomi’s broader objective to reduce reliance on third-party chipmakers like Qualcomm and MediaTek. This move not only offers greater control over hardware-software integration but also positions Xiaomi to better manage supply chain dynamics and production costs. However, the geopolitical landscape, particularly U.S. export controls, could influence Xiaomi’s access to advanced manufacturing processes, potentially impacting production timelines and capabilities.

As the anticipated launch approaches, more detailed information is expected to emerge, providing further insights into Xiaomi’s strategic direction and the potential impact of its custom SoC on the smartphone market.

Future Galaxy S Ultra phones could ditch the S Pen slot: internal space or separate price tag?

Samsung could be gearing up to drop the built-in S Pen slot from its future Galaxy S Ultra models, a move that’s sparking concern among fans. While the Galaxy S26 Ultra is expected to retain the S Pen slot, a recent leak suggests the company is eyeing a redesign down the line to reclaim internal space—though the S Pen itself won’t vanish altogether.

Since the Galaxy Note’s retirement, the S Pen has been an Ultra hallmark, tucked neatly into the phone’s frame. But that slot eats up real estate that could boost battery size. X user @PandaFlashPro reports that Samsung is mulling this shift, potentially starting post-S26 Ultra.

The S Pen won’t be included in the box, right?

Samsung is already struggling to manage the cost of including a charging cable in the box. They just switched from the 5A cable to a thinner 3A one, which also reportedly caused some compatibility issues with existing 45W official chargers. If the rumor about the S Pen slot is true, it’s likely that the premium drawing tool will get a separate price tag. Judging from the industry trends, it also appears to be a more viable reason behind the redesign than the shortage of internal volume.

Samsung trimmed the Bluetooth feature from the S Pen of the S25 Ultra, reportedly because a very small percentage of users actually use it. If the slot goes, an external S Pen—still supported—could revive Bluetooth connectivity, most likely at the cost of a hefty price tag.

The S26 Ultra, due next year, should include the S Pen slot, and the stylus itself may lack Bluetooth. Starting with the S27 Ultra, users might need to carry the stylus separately, much like Galaxy Z Fold owners. Or, Samsung will list a case alongside the stylist for sale that includes an S Pen slot. Nonetheless, this is a leak rather than official information, so take it with a pinch of salt.

Entire Pixel 10 series’ camera specs revealed, and its a mixed bag of upgrades and downgrades

As we are inching closer to the official unveiling of Google’s Pixel 10 series, leaks are also revealing certain aspects of the devices under development. According to a recent report, the base Pixel 10 would finally snag a telephoto lens, aligning it with the Pro models. Now, thanks to insider documents viewed by Android Authority, we’ve got the full camera specifications of all models—and it’s a mixed bag of upgrades and compromises.

The addition of a telephoto in the Pixel 10 is accompanied by downgraded main and ultrawide

Since the Pixel 6, the base models have included only wide and ultrawide lenses on the back, while Pro models pack an additional telephoto lens. The Pixel 10 series rewrites that script. The base Pixel 10 gains an 11MP Samsung 3J1 telephoto—borrowed from the Pixel 9 Pro Fold.

Includes an additional lens

But here’s a catch: its primary sensor swaps the hefty GNV (1/1.31″) for the smaller Samsung GN8 (1/1.95″), and the ultrawide drops from an IMX858 (1/2.55″) to a Sony IMX712 (1/3.1″). Notably, these are the exact same sensors the Pixel 9a uses, which is a bit disappointing.

Smaller sensors have weaker low-light performance, a trade-off Google’s AI and algorithms can only soften, not erase. The selfie cam holds steady from last year, but the rest feels like a Pixel 9a remix with an added telephoto.

Meanwhile, the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL keep their camera hardware unchanged, leaning on the Tensor G5’s custom ISP and fresh algorithms to squeeze out improvements. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold gets a minor tweak, ditching the Sony IMX787 (Pixel 8a) for the GN8 (Pixel 9a), but it hardly deserves a headline.

Google is widening the gap between its base and Pro tiers, a trend that kicked off last year. The Pixel 10’s camera downgrade—swapping bigger sensors for smaller ones—likely offsets the cost and space of that new telephoto lens. Later this year, we’ll see if Google’s gamble pays off. Despite the smaller main and ultrawide sensors on the base model, the final output may not differ much compared to the Pixel 9—since image processing plays a major role and can improve independently of the sensors.

Galaxy Tab S10 FE’s 7-year update promise: What Samsung didn’t clarify

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S10 FE and FE+ launched on April 3, 2025, with Android 15 and One UI 7. Unfortunately, neither the press release nor the product pages mention the software update policy for the tablets.

Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 and S10 FE Plus Specs Price leak

Typically, Samsung trumpets its update commitments—six years for mid-range devices, seven for flagships—right on product pages. For these mid-range tablets, though, the details are murky, and a vague customer service response has only muddied the waters further.

Seven years of updates may or may not include Android version upgrades

Curious about the FE and FE+’s update situation, a user queried Samsung directly. The reply? The tablets will get seven years of updates—but it’s unclear if that spans both OS upgrades and security patches. Samsung’s customer support has a shaky track record on update specifics, often serving up vague answers that frustrate more than they clarify.

Recent mid-range phones from Samsung are eligible for six years of full support (Android + security patch), while seven years has been a flagship perk. The Tab S10 FE’s seven-year update claim bucks that trend, raising both eyebrows and hope—yet without Samsung’s official word, it’s a leap of faith.

Galaxy Tab S10 FE+

If true, these tablets could enjoy Android and One UI updates through 2032, alongside security fixes, matching the premium Tab S10 lineup. But it’s just speculation. Samsung’s precedent suggests seven years would cover everything, but the lack of confirmation leaves room for doubt—especially with customer care’s shaky credibility. For now, users eying the latest mid-range tablets await a definitive statement to settle whether the Tab S10 FE and FE+ are mid-range anomalies or just victims of sloppy communication. We’ll share more information as soon as the company clarifies the matter with an official response.

Oppo Reno 14 Pro render surfaces along with key specs

Oppo is gearing up for another design-forward refresh of its mid-premium Reno lineup, and if newly leaked renders are anything to go by, the upcoming Reno 14 Pro is all about refining what worked—while throwing in a few smart upgrades. The renders, published exclusively by Smartprix, give us a detailed first look at the phone’s refreshed aesthetic and what’s shaping up to be a more purposeful device overall.

Oppo Reno 14 Pro Render

Oppo Reno 14 Pro Design Details

The standout change? A redesigned camera island. Unlike the Reno 13 Pro’s triple-camera layout with distinct metal rings around each lens, the Reno 14 Pro adopts a more unified, vertical arrangement. The primary and ultrawide cameras now sit together in one module, while the periscope telephoto lens is set off to the side, just above a minimalist dot-style LED flash. It’s cleaner, sleeker, and subtly more premium.

Around the front, Oppo is finally ditching curves. The Reno 14 Pro will feature a flat OLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate—a shift that aligns with trends seen in Oppo’s own Find X8 series and the wider Android space. Flat screens may not look as flashy on marketing materials, but they’re undeniably more functional for everyday use, especially when it comes to typing, gaming, and avoiding ghost touches.

Specs-wise, the source points to a capable triple-camera setup: a 50MP primary sensor with OIS, an 8MP ultrawide, and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom. The device is also expected to feature the “Magic Cube” button—a remappable physical key that replaces the Alert Slider and is rumored to work similarly to Apple’s Action Button. It’s also expected to show up in other Oppo devices like the Find X8 Ultra and X8s series, signaling a new era of customizable hardware for the brand.

The Reno 14 Pro will ship with Android 15 out of the box, layered with Oppo’s ColorOS 15. The phone is also expected to carry the same glass back, a metal frame, and IP68/IP69 certification for enhanced water and dust resistance.

The Reno 14 series is tipped to launch in China in May. The pricing is expected to be similar to the Reno 13 lineup, which launched at 2,699 Yuan (approximately $370) for the base model and 3,299 Yuan (around $455) for the Pro version.

KTC Launched a MacBook-Friendly Monitor with iMac-Level Detail

KTC has launched a new 27-inch monitor in the Chinese market, the H27P3, and it’s clearly aimed at creatives, professionals, and hybrid users who don’t want to compromise between sharp visuals and smooth motion. The display just went live on JD.com, retailing for 2499 yuan ($344).

KTC H27P3 Monitor

KTC H27P3 Monitor Specifications

The H27P3 offers two distinct performance modes: a crisp 5K resolution (5120 x 2880) at 60Hz or a 2K mode at a faster 120Hz refresh rate. That flexibility means users can toggle between ultra-detailed static work—like photo editing, CAD, and color grading—and more responsive use cases like gaming or video playback. It’s the kind of dual-mode approach that appeals to hybrid workflows, especially for people switching between creative suites and productivity tools throughout the day.

Visually, the monitor is tuned for accuracy. The IPS panel supports DisplayHDR 400, boasts a 2000:1 contrast ratio, 500 nits of typical brightness, and supports 1.07 billion colors (8-bit + FRC). KTC claims color accuracy of △E ≤ 1, with factory calibration for 100% sRGB, 99% DCI-P3, and 99% Adobe RGB color spaces. That puts it in serious territory for tasks like print design and color-sensitive video editing.

And it’s not just about pixels and color. The H27P3 is macOS-friendly, optimized for high-DPI scaling, and comes with hardware-level low blue light filtering and DC dimming to reduce eye strain during extended use. The 7ms response time is serviceable for most uses, and variable refresh rate support via FreeSync and G-Sync compatible modes makes it even more versatile.

Connectivity is future-ready: HDMI 2.0, DisplayPort 1.4, USB-A, a 65W USB-C port for both display and laptop charging, and a 3.5mm audio jack. The USB-C port is especially valuable for MacBook users or anyone trying to keep desk clutter to a minimum. There’s also KVM support via the USB-A ports for seamless switching between connected devices.

The monitor ships with a fully adjustable ergonomic stand (supporting height, tilt, and rotation), and KTC bundles it with a DisplayPort cable, USB-C cable, power adapter, and even a screwdriver. At 3.75kg, it’s not the lightest around, but it’s compact enough to fit into most desk setups.

In related news, AOC has recently introduced a new 26.5-inch 4K QD-OLED gaming monitor featuring a 240Hz refresh rate and professional-grade color accuracy. Meanwhile, Acer has unveiled a gaming monitor that pushes boundaries with an astonishing 600Hz refresh rate.

Camera-wise, the XCover 7 Pro is said to feature a 50MP main shooter and an 8MP ultrawide on the back, while the front will house a 13MP selfie camera. 

The phone will ship with One UI 7 based on Android 15. Other features include a side-mounted fingerprint sensor integrated into the power button, dual-SIM support, and a single black color option. 

The sole configuration of the phone (6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage) is said to retail for €599 in Europe.

Noise Air Buds Pro 6 Launched with 49dB ANC, LHDC, 43h playtime & 12.4mm drivers

Indian audio brand Noise has unveiled its latest TWS offering — the Noise Air Buds Pro 6, a feature-packed addition to its growing lineup of affordable wireless earbuds. As the direct successor to the Air Buds 6 launched earlier this year, the new Pro 6 version significantly raises the bar in terms of audio quality, smart features, and noise control, all while staying within the budget segment.

Noise Air Buds Pro 6

Noise Air Buds Pro 6 Specifications

At the heart of the Air Buds Pro 6 are 12.4mm Titanium + PEEK drivers, delivering punchy bass, rich mids, and improved durability. The inclusion of Hybrid Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) that suppresses up to 49dB of ambient sound marks a significant improvement over the 32dB ANC in the previous model, making these ideal for noisy environments like public transport or bustling streets.

In terms of sound fidelity, the Air Buds Pro 6 goes a step further with support for LHDC codec, enabling 24-bit/96kHz high-resolution audio at up to 990 kbps—nearly three times higher than traditional SBC codecs. This translates into richer, more detailed sound with better depth and spatial awareness. The addition of spatial audio enhances the immersive quality, especially while gaming or watching movies.

Call quality has also been improved thanks to a Quad Mic Environmental Noise Cancellation (ENC) setup, which filters out background noise to ensure voice clarity during calls. Like the Air Buds 6, the new model is also expected to support customizable settings via the Noise BudsLink app, enabling users to adjust EQ levels, remap touch controls, switch between ANC modes, and use voice prompts such as “Hey headphones, ANC on” for hands-free operation.

Design-wise, the earbuds feature a sleek metalised paint finish and an in-ear style that’s complemented by IPX5 water resistance, making them suitable for both workouts and rainy day commutes. They also support Low Latency Mode (50ms) for gamers, Dual Device Pairing, Hyper Sync, Google Fast Pair, and In-Ear Detection for auto-play/pause functionality.

Battery performance sees a boost as well. The earbuds offer up to 7 hours of playback on a single charge and up to 43 hours with the case—bringing the total to an impressive 50 hours. Thanks to InstaCharge, just 10 minutes of charging delivers up to 150 minutes of playtime, making them a great option for quick power-ups before heading out.

Pricing and Availability

The Noise Air Buds Pro 6 comes in stylish colors like Slate Black, Nimbus Grey, Petal Pink, and the newly introduced Slate Grey. Priced at Rs. 3,499 ($41), it is now available for pre-order on the Noise website ahead of its official sale on April 9 via Noise and Amazon.in.
