Realme P3 Pro's Nebula Glow edition — Realme P3 Pro’s Nebula Glow edition glows in the dark.

The Realme P3 Pro will come in three exclusive colours for the Indian market: Nebula Glow, Saturn Brown, and Galaxy Purple. Notably, the Nebula Glow variant features a colour-changing fibre back panel that makes its nebula-like patterns glow in the dark, giving it a striking cosmic appearance.

The P3 Pro has a slim chassis of 7.99mm and still houses a massive 6,000mAh battery. It is durable as it offers IP66/68/69-level dust and water resistance. While the company has revealed the Glow (green) and purple shades, it is yet to showcase the brown variant.

The Realme P3 Pro is confirmed to feature a quad-curved OLED panel that offers a 1.5K resolution and an in-screen fingerprint scanner. On the back, it has an OIS-enabled 50-megapixel dual-camera system.

Under the hood, the P3 Pro has the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, and it is confirmed to support 80W fast charging. One of the major attractions of this performance-driven mid-ranger is that it comes with GT Boost for a lag-free experience while playing BGMI. For heat dissipation, the P3 Pro is equipped with a 6,050mm² vapour chamber cooling unit.

Leaked information that emerged in January revealed that the P3 Pro will be announced in multiple configurations, such as 8GB+128GB, 12GB+256GB, and 12GB+512GB. This information could be true since the same reports also tipped the color variants, which have turned out to be true today. The P3 series includes multiple models, such as the Realme P3x, Realme P3, and Realme P3 Ultra. These devices are expected to debut within Q1 this year.

Developer Tools
Firefox 135 warns against improper use of content visibility, adds a $$$ console command for shadow root searches, and fixes WebExtension debugging for workers and content scripts. Linux binaries now use XZ compression for faster unpacking.

Both 1″ main and 1/1.31″ periscope telephoto of Huawei Pura 80 Ultra to use RYYB configuration, claims DCS

By

Feb 11, 2025

Huawei is paying significant attention to the imaging capabilities of the upcoming Pura 80 Ultra. The Chinese smartphone maker has previously experimented with RYYB configuration for the image sensors, and the Pura 80 Ultra will reportedly be a part of that.

HUAWEI-Pura-70-Ultra-Retractable-Camera — Huawei Pura 70 Ultra

The news comes from reliable Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station, who previously revealed some information about the prototype of the Pura 80 Ultra. Huawei was reportedly testing it with a 50MP, 1-inch main sensor with variable aperture, and a 1/1.31″ periscope telephoto that has an RYYB configuration. Now the tipster reiterates on that leak saying the main sensor also be a part of the experiment.

Why does it matter?

For those unfamiliar, RGGB (commonly used in smartphone sensors) and RYYB refer to different color filter array configurations used to capture color information. While RGGB is considered to be ideal for general photography, the RYYB configuration excels in low-light conditions, capturing brighter images but sometimes at the cost of color accuracy.

So, it may benefit the Pura 80 Ultra in low-light photography. As for the color accuracy, the smartphone giant has previously experimented with it and likely has some experience on how to navigate through the challenges that come with RYYB. Nonetheless, we’ll need to test the color accuracy ourselves once the device hits the market.

The tipster also stated that the entire series comes with variable aperture, and the amount of light that enters the main sensor is sufficient.

To recall, Huawei used the RYYB color filter array with the Pura 70 Ultra as well, and the phone competes well with other flagships regardless of the lighting condition.

Feb 11, 2025

Recent reports suggest that Oppo is preparing to launch two new Find-series smartphones in March in China. These include the much-anticipated Find X8 Ultra and a more compact version, the Find X8 Mini. Reputable tipster Digital Chat Station recently shared the key specifications of the Mini variant. Today, he released a Weibo post to reveal the camera specifications of the said device.

Oppo Find X8 Mini camera specifications (rumored)

According to the new leak, the Find X8 Mini is set to sport a triple-camera array featuring a 50-megapixel primary camera with a sizable 1/1.56-inch format and optical image stabilization, accompanied by an f/1.8 aperture for improved low-light performance. A previous leak from the same source claimed that it would feature a Sony IMX9-series primary camera. It can be said based on the new leak that it could be equipped with a Sony IMX866 main sensor.

Additionally, the device features a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens with an f/2.0 aperture, ideal for capturing expansive scenes The camera setup also includes a 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lens, offering 3.5X magnification with an f/2.8 aperture and a focal range from 0.6X to 7X.

Reports surrounding the Find X8 Mini reveal that it will be a compact phone featuring a 6.3-inch LTPO OLED panel with a flat design and ultra-thin bezels. It will offer a 1.5K resolution of 2640 x 1216 pixels and a 120Hz refresh rate. The device will be equipped with a metal frame with a glass back, achieving a premium look and feel.

Under the hood, the phone is powered by the Dimensity 9400 chipset, ensuring performance on par with the higher-end models of the X8 series. Further highlights include complete NFC support, an infrared remote control, dual speakers, an x-axis linear haptic motor, and ColorOS 15-based Android 15. The device is also expected to feature a new push-type Alert Slider button.

Xiaomi 15’s higher RAM and storage variants may remain exclusive to China

Feb 11, 2025

Xiaomi launched its new flagships towards the end of last year in its home country. However, the models are yet to make their way to the global market. Now, thanks to a new leak, we finally have some information about the base model: the storage, RAM, color options, and the launch timeframe.

Xiaomi 15 global variant’s RAM, storage, and color options revealed

As per leaker Sudhanshu (via XpertPick), Xiaomi 15 will be launched globally during the upcoming MWC 2025 event, scheduled for 3 Mar, 2025 – Thu, 6 Mar, 2025. The phone is expected to come in two configurations: 12GB + 256GB and 12GB + 512 GB. In comparison, the phone is available in two more configurations in the home country: 16GB RAM + 512GB and 16GB RAM + 1TB.

There will be three color options to choose from: Green, Black, and White. Surprisingly, these are the same color options Xiaomi sold the predecessor with. In China, the phone is available in different color options such as Lilac Purple and Light Grass Green. While some difference between the Chinese and global models is expected, it’s unlikely for the company to choose the same color options as last year’s models. So take this part of the leak with a pinch of salt.

Moving on, the rest of the internal specifications such as the chipset, battery, and camera sensors are likely to remain the same as the Chinese variant. To recall, the one released in China packs the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, three 50MP cameras – 1/1.31″ main (with OIS) + 3X telephoto (with OIS) + 14mm ultrawide – a 5400mAh battery which supports 90W wired and 50W wireless fast charging.

While the camera system is very similar to that of its predecessor, Xiaomi has achieved significant improvement in imaging and video performance through improvements in image processing. So anyone using the Xiaomi 14 series or an older model will notice an improvement here.

As for the UI experience, the phone comes with HyperOS 2.0 out-of-the-box, which is based on Android 15. According to a recent report from Dealabs, European pricing is expected to remain the same as its last year.

Official Pixel 9a case images align with design leaks, new front render emerges

By

-

Feb 11, 2025

The Google Pixel 9a launch is just around the corner, and the leaks continue to pour in. We’ve already seen a deluge of information, from wallpapers to detailed specifications. Now, thanks to Android Authority, we’re getting a look at the official case designs.

Pixel 9a will have a color-matching case

The cases themselves are pretty much what you’d expect. They seem to follow the familiar Pixel design language, but without the raised camera bar that’s a hallmark of the higher-end Pixel models. Since the 9a is ditching the protruding camera bar, the case design reflects that.

The cases seem to feature a soft-touch silicone exterior with a microfiber lining inside. You’ll find “Pixel” branding on the interior and Google’s signature “G” logo on the back.

According to the report, the cases will come in at least four colors to match the phone’s options: Peony (pink), Obsidian (black), Iris (purple), and Porcelain (white).

Google Pixel 9a from front

Adding to the flood of leaks, renowned tipster Evan Blass briefly shared an image of the Pixel 9a’s front before it was taken down—possibly due to legal concerns.

The image shows the upcoming phone has a slightly thinner bottom bezel compared to the Pixel 8a, though the overall bezels remain noticeably thick by today’s standards. Still, that’s not surprising for a mid-range device.

Moreover, spec rumors suggest the Pixel 9a will pack a Tensor G4 chip and a hefty 5,100 mAh battery—the largest ever for a Pixel phone. Other expected features include a 6.28-inch OLED display with a peak brightness of 2,700 nits, 8GB of RAM, a 48MP main camera, and a 13MP ultrawide lens.

As always, we’ll keep tracking the leaks and bring updates as they roll in.

Feb 11, 2025

Last week, the upcoming Motorola Razr Plus 2025 flip phone was spotted with a flagship Snapdragon chip on the Geekbench benchmarking platform. Now, AndroidHeadlines has shared leaked renders to provide a brief preview of the device intended for the US market, while it is expected to be marketed as the Razr 60 Ultra elsewhere.

Motorola Razr Plus 2025 renders by AndroidHeadlines

The Motorola Razr Plus 2025’s leaked renders indicate that the device, codenamed Orion, showcases a refined dark green finish with a stitched faux leather rear that adds a premium feel. One of the major highlights of the Razr Plus 2025 is its large cover display, which supports the full range of Android applications, setting it apart from many competing flip phones.

The right edge of the Razr Plus 2025 features volume buttons and a side-facing fingerprint scanner. While the publication has released multiple images of the phone, none of them offer a clear view of the internal foldable screen. Nevertheless, the image below shows that the internal display has a punch-hole design and slim bezels. Its bottom edge features a SIM slot, a microphone, a USB-C port, and a speaker.

The images also confirm that the Razr Plus 2025 is equipped with dual camera modules on the back. Although specifics remain limited, early expectations suggest that one unit will capture wide-angle shots, while the other may serve a telephoto role, potentially reviving a feature absent in the previous iteration.

Motorola Razr Plus 2025 specifications (rumored)

Beneath its stylish exterior, the Razr Plus 2025 is poised to feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. It is rumored to come with up to 12GB of RAM and a base storage capacity of 256 GB. It could be equipped with a 6.9-inch internal display and a 4,000mAh battery.

Like the previous generation, the Razr Plus 2025’s cover screen will be able to run a full suite of Android apps, a feature that continues to distinguish the Razr lineup from rival offerings, including recent foldable entries from Oppo.

iQOO Z10 Turbo / Pro launch timeline leaks

By

Feb 11, 2025

iQOO has been busy expanding its Z9 series right up until the end of 2024, but whispers of its successors began circulating even before that. The upcoming iQOO Z10 series is expected to feature four models: the Z10x, Z10, Z10 Turbo, and Z10 Turbo Pro.

And now a new leak from Weibo, courtesy of reliable tipster Digital Chat Station, might have just revealed key details about the latter two models in the lineup.

iQOO Z10 Turbo / Turbo Pro expected launch

According to the leak, two of the phones—one powered by the Dimensity 8400 and the other by a yet-to-be-announced Snapdragon 8M8735 (possibly dubbed the Snapdragon 8s Elite)—are set to launch in April.

Both phones will feature 1.5K LTPS flat screens and a new independent graphics chip. While the tipster didn’t explicitly name the devices, the specifications suggest they could be the iQOO Z10 Turbo and Z10 Turbo Pro.

iQOO Z10 Turbo, Z10 Turbo Pro launch timeline leaks

Further details point to massive batteries, reportedly ranging between 7000mAh and 7500mAh. For context, the entire Z9 series offers battery capacities between 6,000mAh and 6,400mAh. So if true, the Z10 series is a notable upgrade in terms of battery life. And despite these large cells, iQOO is said to have managed to keep the phones’ weight in check.

The leak also suggests that the Z10 series could see additional mid-range models later in 2025. We assume that means the Z10 Turbo variants might debut in April, followed by the more basic models.

While the leak reveals no more about the phones, previous reports have revealed that the Z10 Turbo will have a flat OLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate. It will have a 50-megapixel dual-camera system on the back. The device will pack a large silicon-carbon battery of around 7,000mAh capacity. It is expected to support 80W or 90W fast charging.

Feb 11, 2025

Oppo recently confirmed that it will hold a launch event on Feb. 20 to unveil the Oppo Find N5 and the Oppo Watch X2. Today, the brand released a couple of posters to confirm the chipset, battery size, and DeepSeek AI integration. Here is a look at the details confirmed by the brand.

Oppo Find N5 chipset, battery, and AI integration

Oppo Find N5 - Snapdragon 8 Elite — Oppo Find N5 – Snapdragon 8 Elite

Oppo Find N5 battery — Oppo Find N5 – Snapdragon 8 Elite

The Oppo Find N5 will debut as the world’s first Snapdragon 8 Elite-powered foldable phone. The Geekbench listing that emerged a couple of days back revealed that it will not feature the regular version of the chip, but it will arrive with a 7-core edition.

The Snapdragon 8 Elite 7-core edition features a 2+5-core configuration with two high-performance cores clocked at 4.32GHz and five efficiency cores at 3.53GHz. This version, identified internally as SM8750-3-AB, is a 7-core variant optimized for performance and efficiency.

The foldable phone packs a 5,600mAh battery, setting a new benchmark for foldable phone endurance. It’s a major upgrade compared to the previous generation Find N3, which was backed by a 4,805mAh battery. The N5’s huge battery is packed inside an ultra-thin chassis that measures around 9.2mm in the folded state.

As far as battery life is concerned, lab tests indicate that the Find N5 can record 1080p video in extreme cold (-15°C) for 4.2 hours, surpassing existing foldables that last 3.2 hours in similar conditions. Additionally, it supports 24 hours of video streaming and 18.47 hours of online meetings.

Oppo has integrated China’s very own DeepSeek-R1, an advanced AI model launched in January 2025, into the Find N5. This enables intuitive voice commands via the Xiaobu assistant, allowing users to perform tasks with a single phrase, and store results locally. DeepSeek-R1 is designed for natural interactions, complete functionality, and extensive real-world applications.

The Find N5’s global version, which is also set to debut on the same date, will be equipped with Google Gemini. Reports have revealed that the foldable phone will be rebranded as OnePlus Open 2 in markets such as the US, Europe, and India. Therefore, it will also feature the same chipset and battery.

Galaxy AI Subscription Club: here’s how it’s changing how people buy phones

By

-

Feb 11, 2025

Samsung announced its “New Galaxy AI Subscription Club” just after the launch of the Galaxy S25 series, aiming to revolutionize how people purchase phones. It essentially lets you upgrade to the latest flagship without having to pay the full amount at once and sell it back to Samsung next year when the successor arrives. All of it is paired with additional perks.

“New Galaxy AI Subscription Club” proves to be a success

Now, here’s the result: 30% of the unlocked device buyers is the official Samsung website subscribed to the program, as reported by Sammy Fans. 60% of the subscribers are in their 20s and 30s. Not to mention the demographic is more open to a subscription model and tends to upgrade their devices more often.

As per the additional benefits, the subscription plan offers a 50% residual value guarantee given the user returns their Galaxy S25 after 12 months of purchase. This credit can be used to purchase the next Galaxy S-series device, essentially offering the new phone at half price. For those who return the device after 24 months, Samsung will offer up to 40% of the listed price of the device as a credit.

The reduction in upfront cost paired with these additional perks is making the deal more appealing than the conventional one-time payment option.

As for the hardware though, there’s not much new this year aside from slight tweaks in the external design. While most of the internal components and their placement remain the same as last year’s models, the company did spend the time to make some internal restructuring—for example, the old S Pen with Bluetooth support almost fits inside this year’s model, but it doesn’t lock into place.

When it comes to software, the Galaxy S25 series boasts some of the most advanced AI features available on smartphones—such as the object eraser. However, Samsung has hinted that these features may become part of a subscription plan starting next year.

5 Reasons Why the Oppo Find N5 Could Be the Best Foldable to Date

By

Rajesh Regmi

-

Feb 11, 2025

Oppo is gearing up to launch its next foldable, the Find N5, on February 20. The device is the successor to the Find N3, which debuted in 2023. Notably, the company skipped a foldable release in 2024.

Instead, Oppo took the extra time to refine its approach—and it looks like that decision is paying off. If early buzz is any indication, the Find N5 could be Oppo’s most polished foldable yet, and maybe even one of the best foldables ever.

Prev Next

1. Unmatched Thinness and Premium Build

Oppo Find N5

One of the most striking aspects of the Find N5 is its unprecedented thinness. Oppo has managed to engineer a foldable phone that, when unfolded, is barely thicker than a USB-C port.

When unfolded, the device measures approximately 4.2 millimeters which makes it the world’s thinnest book-style foldable phone to date. And despite its slender form factor, the Find N5 doesn’t compromise on durability.

The device features a 3D-printed titanium alloy hinge to maintain its structural integrity. It also boasts an array of water-resistance certifications, including IPX6, IPX8, and IPX9, which is a first for any foldable.

2. A Creaseless Display

The Find N5 features an 8.12-inch LTPO OLED foldable display with support for 1 billion colors, Dolby Vision, and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. But Oppo’s biggest flex for Find N5 is a nearly invisible crease.

Foldable displays have long struggled with visible creases, but based on renders and live images so far, Oppo seems to have cracked the code. The crease is so subtle that you’d have to catch it under just the right lighting to notice it—and even then, you’d be nitpicking.

3. Snapdragon 8 Elite and Big Battery

Under the hood, the Find N5 is expected to debut with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite, making it the first foldable to feature the new chip. It’s paired with 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of UFS 4.0 storage, so performance should be buttery smooth.

However, Oppo is reportedly using a 7-core variant of the Snapdragon 8 Elite instead of the standard 8-core version. According to Mishaal Rahman, this tweak could help reduce heat without sacrificing much in terms of performance.

Despite its slim design, the Find N5 is rumored to pack a massive 5,600mAh battery. Mind you, that’s bigger than what you’ll find in flagships like the Galaxy S25 Ultra or iPhone 16 Pro Max. And that’s seriously impressive for a foldable that this slim. It will have support for 80W wired and 50W wireless charging for battery top-ups.

Notably, Oppo might be adding wireless charging compatibility with in-car systems from EV brands like BYD and NIO in China, making the Find N5 even more versatile.

4. Software and Cameras

As for the cameras, the foldable rear module will comprise a 50MP main sensor with optical image stabilization (OIS) and phase detection autofocus (PDAF), a 50MP periscope telephoto lens offering 3x optical zoom, and an 8MP ultrawide sensor.

For selfies, the device features two 8MP front-facing cameras—one on the cover display and another on the inner display—for high-quality shots in both folded and unfolded states.

Oppo has done a stellar job bringing clever multitasking tricks to its foldables, making full use of that big inner display like no other. Now, I’m curious to see if can Oppo push things even further. We’re hoping to see Oppo build on its strengths and introduce new features that truly take advantage of the large canvas.

We’ll find out this when the reviews start rolling in, but one sure thing is that the Find N5 will ship with Android 15, running Oppo’s ColorOS 15 skin on top.

5. Final Thoughts

With its ultra-thin design, nearly invisible crease, flagship-tier performance, premium camera setup, and advanced software features, the Oppo Find N5 is looking to be the most refined foldable smartphone yet.

It is launching in China and select international markets on February 20, 2025, but there’s no word yet on a U.S. release. That said, history suggests there’s a good chance it could make its way stateside.

Oppo’s previous foldable, the Find N3, eventually landed in the U.S. as the OnePlus Open. If Oppo sticks to that playbook, we might see a rebranded Find N5 hit the American market later this year—likely as the OnePlus Open 2.
