As we enter the month of September, benchmarking platform AnTuTu has shared a list of top-performing smartphones over the previous month. To no one’s surprise, the list is topped by the recently launched Red Magic 9S Pro+, which features an overclocked Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, also called the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 “Leading Version”.

The second place goes to the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro (review), which is an interesting addition since it is more of a flagship killer powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip, rather than a full-fledged flagship smartphone. Even the third-place iQOO Neo 9S Pro+ only costs around $412 (CNY 2,999), while scoring over 2.1 million points on average on AnTuTu, which makes it an attractive device for buyers looking for the most performance without breaking the bank. You can find the complete list of top-performing devices below.

AnTuTu Benchmark Top Performing Smartphones August 2024

RedMagic 9S Pro+ Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 OC 24GB + 1TB – 2127528
OnePlus Ace 3 Pro Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 24GB + 1TB – 2107208
iQOO Neo 9S Pro+ Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 16GB + 1TB – 2106419
ROG 8 Pro Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 16GB + 512GB – 2093592
iQOO Neo 9S Pro Dimensity 9300+ 16GB + 1TB – 2091933
Redmi K70 Ultra Edition Dimensity 9300+ 16GB + 512GB – 2085769
Vivo X100 Ultra Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 16GB + 1TB – 2050569
Vivo X100 Pro Dimensity 9300 16GB + 1TB – 2019403
Vivo X100 Dimensity 9300 16GB + 512GB – 2015347
OnePlus 12 Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 16GB + 512GB – 2010851

MediaTek’s Dimensity 9300+ powered devices that were usually seen in the top three if not the first place have been significantly outperformed by their Qualcomm counterparts. The iQOO Neo 9S Pro and the Redmi K70 Ultra Edition powered by the Dimensity 9300+ are both relatively affordable smartphones for the performance they offer.

That said, MediaTek is planning to launch its next-generation Dimensity 9400 in mid-October, with flagship smartphones like the Vivo X200 series or Oppo Find X8 series expected to be the early adopters. As for the performance gains, the Dimensity 9400 is rumored to improve by 30% in single-core performance compared to the Dimensity 9300 and offer “PC-level” ray tracing capabilities.

Google Pixel Watch 3 to receive just 3 years of Android updates

Sep 3, 2024

Google has received widespread praise for its industry-leading software support for Pixel phones. The newly announced Pixel 9 series promises an impressive seven years of guaranteed OS and security updates—a commitment unmatched by any other major manufacturer, except Samsung.

However, this generous policy doesn’t apply equally across Google’s hardware lineup. For Pixel Watch owners, the software support situation is far less favorable.

Both the original Pixel Watch and its successor, the Pixel Watch 2, received only three years of software updates. Unfortunately, this trend continues with the recently launched Pixel Watch 3.

Google has committed to providing software updates for the Pixel Watch 3 until October 2027. While the company hasn’t ruled out the possibility of updates beyond that date, there’s no guarantee they will continue.

Note that, unlike smartphones, where Google explicitly mentions Android and security patch updates, the company bundles WearOS updates under “Guaranteed software updates.” It includes “Google Pixel Watch security updates and may include feature drops and other software updates.”

The reason for the shorter update timeline for smartwatches might be that Google expects users to upgrade their watches more often than smartphones.

Alternatively, a more skeptical view is that this decision could be cost-driven. Since smartwatches are generally less expensive than phones, the level of support might be influenced by financial considerations.

Whatever the reason is, users interested in the Pixel Watch lineup as a whole should be aware of this significant difference in software support compared to Pixel phones. Sure, the Pixel Watch 3 offers the latest Wear OS and a strong feature set, but its longevity in receiving software updates falls far short of its smartphone counterparts.

HMD Crest 5G Review: Can This Repairable Budget Phone Rise Above the Competition?

By

-

Sep 3, 2024

After parting ways with Nokia’s branding, HMD made its smartphone debut in India with the Crest series and I finally got the chance to review the base model of the new lineup, the HMD Crest 5G. The sub-15K INR category is a segment for budget phones and the Crest is one of the latest contenders.

At this price point, value is king, and the HMD Crest 5G aims to deliver it all. Despite the tough competition, HMD has managed to include some standout features and a pretty nifty gimmick. So is it actually worth your money? Let’s find out.

1. HMD Crest 5G Review: Solid start with Robust Body & OLED Display

HMD wanted to make a strong first impression in this price range, which is reflected in the Crest’s design and display. While the design is subjective, this affordable phone does not feel cheap. HMD Crest might not stand out visually, nevertheless it makes up for it with build quality. This is thanks to the flat glass panel on the back which isn’t common in this range.

I received the sober Midnight Blue color option but the glittery effect adds some much-needed visual texture. It weighs 205 grams and measures just 8.4mm in thickness. Water splashes pose no threat to the HMD Crest since it has an IP52 rating.

On the front, the Crest sports a 6.67-inch OLED display that is protected by Dragon Trail glass. Bezels appear uniform at first glance till you see its chin. It offers FHD+ resolution, a 90Hz refresh rate, and a 20:9 aspect ratio.

The screen is one of the phone’s strong points with sharp visuals and good colors, which is expected on an OLED. For those who frequently watch shows on streaming platforms, the HMD Crest supports Widevine L1 and HDR, ensuring a great viewing experience.

The OLED display certainly gives this phone an edge over the competition. However, it has one notable drawback. It lacks the option to switch between natural and vivid tones. This is a basic feature that many users would expect. The only tinkering allowed is with the white balance, which is somewhat disappointing.

2. The Big DIY Repair Gimmick

The feature that sets the Crest series apart from the crowd is DIY self-repairs. Even during the announcement, the ease of repair was a highlight. The company offers repair kits, genuine spare parts, and free guides, all available on their official website.

The repair tool kit is sold separately for 999 INR, although HMD included one in the review box. The guides provided on the website were useful, and the initial steps were straightforward. However, the process may still seem daunting to beginners, who might prefer having a professional handle the repairs.

Even I struggled a bit while putting it back together since the fingerprint reader’s cable refused to sit in its right place. Making smartphones easier to repair and providing access to parts for self-repair is already a couple of steps ahead of what most brands offer. While repairability is a valuable feature, it typically isn’t a major consideration for most buyers when choosing a phone.

3. Performance: Was Unisoc the right decision?

(L to R) GeekBench, CPU Throttle, & AnTuTu

Addressing the elephant in the room, the UNISOC processor. The chip from UNISOC is often seen in entry level phones, but surprisingly, it wasn’t a dealbreaker here. UNISOC introduced affordable yet capable 5G processors in 2023, and our report found these chips to be quite underrated.

Based on synthetic benchmarks, the UNISOC T760 in the HMD Crest performs comparably to the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 and the Dimensity 7025. However, both Snapdragon and Dimensity processors remain strong alternatives in this category. So considering a switch to Qualcomm or MediaTek chips could be a strategic move in the future.

Performance throttling wasn’t an issue and the phone handled every day use and multitasking without any stutters. The 90Hz display made things feel pretty snappy as well. While the HMD Crest did get a bit warm during gaming, it didn’t get unconfortable or impact the overall experience. Playing BGMI,the phone maintained a stable 40FPS on the Ultra framerate setting. Since the HMD Crest isn’t designed as a gaming phone, it’s best suited for casual gaming.

4. Battery & Software

The Crest houses a large 5,000mAh battery pack that is fairly standard for this segment along with support for 33W wired fast charging. Combined with the stock Android 14 OS, the phone easily lasted through most of my day on a single charge. Charging took around an hour so there was no prolonged downtime either. I averaged just under 6 hours of screen-on time with moderate use. Decent all things considered, but not class-leading.

Aside for HMD’s “My Device” and Google’s preloaded apps, the phone is free from bloatware. However, the clean UI of stock Android can be a double-edged sword. While the experience is streamlined and straightforward, it lacks the customizability and additional features often found in the custom versions of Android offered by established companies like Samsung. So while the experience is clean, the software lacks unique flair that other manufacturers might provide.

A smartphone isn’t all about hardware and also blends software to establish brand identity. For a budget phone, this approach seems like a calculated choice by the company. Hopefully, HMD has more planned for us in this area. Additionally, the phone is promised only one major OS update and two years of security patches.

5. Camera

You should never base your smartphone purchase solely on camera resolution, and the HMD Crest demonstrates why. While the 50MP primary camera on the rear may sound impressive, similar to those found on flagship phones, the image quality is not on the same level.

In bright or well-lit conditions, the camera captures sharp images with plenty of detail. The HDR settings effectively enhance contrast in daylight scenes, providing a generally good experience. However, there were occasional issues with overexposure from the rear camera, even after adjusting the focus and exposure levels. Future software updates could address these issues to further improve photo quality.

In comparison to other budget phones like the Moto G64, the Crest falls short in one area. While the G64 features an ultra-wide-angle lens as a secondary camera, the Crest includes only a 2MP depth sensor. This depth sensor primarily aids in portrait shots and lacks a distinct function beyond complementing the main camera.

On the front, the phone features a 50MP sensor designed to ‘level up’ your selfie game. The front camera delivers decent performance with good detail and color in favorable lighting conditions. However, the shots often come out warmer than intended and occasionally suffer from blown-out highlights. With future software updates, HMD could address these issues to enhance the overall selfie experience.

Another area where this phone falters is in low light scenes from the front and back cameras. Night mode (including Night Selfie mode) raises exposure to brighten up shots, however, you trade it with flat colors, visible noise, and loss of details. There are times it works as intended, though, it’s a hit or miss for me. Videos are a hurdle as well. HMD Crest can shoot at 1080p@30fps from the selfie and rear camera. The videos captured are passable but stabilization is sorely lacking, leading to shaky recordings.

6. Verdict: Worth Buying on a Sale

HMD Crest has an official price tag of 14,999 INR but the discounts offered by the company bring it down to just under 13,000. Right now, it is listed on Amazon India for as low as 11,999 INR. So if you’re on a tight budget, the HMD Crest 5G offers a compelling value proposition in the budget smartphone segment.

Its vibrant OLED display, durable build, and focus on repairability set it apart from competitors like the Redmi 13 5G. Overall, the phone is a competitive choice for those seeking a reliable and affordable smartphone. The only phone I’d choose over this is the CMF Phone 1, but it is slightly more expensive with a 15,999 INR price tag.

Two new Xiaomi phones, identified as 24129PN74C and 2410DPN6CC, recently passed domestic radio approval in China. It is speculated that these belong to the Xiaomi 15 series, which is expected to debut in October in China.

Alleged Xiaomi 15 series radio certified

Xiaomi 15 radio certified — Xiaomi 15 (24129PN74C) radio certified

Xiaomi 15 Pro radio certified — Xiaomi 15 (24129PN74C) radio certified

According to reports, the Xiaomi 15 series includes three models: Xiaomi 15, 15 Pro, and 15 Ultra. The IMEI database listing shows that the Ultra variant has the following model numbers: 25010PN30C for China, 25010PN30G for the global version, and 25010PN30I for the Indian version. However, the Ultra model is expected to debut in the first quarter of 2025.

According to the IMEI listings, the standard Xiaomi 15 is identified by three model numbers: 24129PN74G for the global variant, 24129PN74I for India, and 24129PN74C for China. The Xiaomi 15 Pro is listed with the model number 24101PNB7C, and there is also a satellite version under the model number 2410DPN6CC.

Qualcomm is expected to unveil the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 chip at the Snapdragon Summit 2024 between Oct. 21 and Oct. 23. Following the Qualcomm announcement, Xiaomi is expected to hold a launch event in China to announce the Xiaomi 15 and 15 Pro as the world’s first Snapdragon 8 Gen 4-powered smartphones. Speculations are rife that Pro model will remain exclusive to China, while the standard and Ultra models will be released in markets outside of China.

Reports suggest that the Xiaomi 15 series is likely to offer both straight and curved screen designs, with potential key features including a 1.5K small straight screen for the standard model and a 2K equal-depth quad-curved screen for the Pro model. The series may also feature a square camera island in the upper left corner and a right-angle metal middle frame with chamfered edges.

In addition to the Xiaomi 15 series, several other flagship phones are expected to be launched in the coming months, including the Vivo X200 series, Oppo Find X8 series, OnePlus 13, iQOO 13, Realme GT 7 Pro, and Redmi K80 series, with releases anticipated between October and November.

Sep 3, 2024

OnePlus has announced the launch date for its upcoming budget-friendly earbuds, the OnePlus Nord Buds 3. These earbuds will be released in India on September 17th at 12 PM. The company has set up a microsite on its official website with more details.

While specific features of the Nord Buds 3 haven’t been revealed yet, they are expected to share similarities with the previous model, the Nord Buds 3 Pro. The earbuds will likely come with an oval-shaped charging case and be available in two color options. A teaser image suggests that the design will be similar to the Nord Buds 3 Pro, featuring a clean and modern look.

In terms of performance, the Nord Buds 3 are expected to offer good sound quality with dynamic drivers. They may also include Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) to reduce background noise. The earbuds are likely to support Google Fast Pairing for quick connections and Bluetooth 5.4 for stable wireless connectivity.

As for the battery life, we can expect the Nord Buds 3 almost the same performance as the Nord Buds 3 Pro, which can last up to 12 hours on a single charge (with ANC turned off) and up to 44 hours with the charging case. As for the pricing, the Nord Buds 3 Pro costs Rs 3,299 / EUR 79 / $79, so we can expect the basic model to cost well below the Rs 3,000 mark.

Xiaomi Pad 7 Series: Flagship Features and OLED Debut, Everything We Know So Far

Sep 3, 2024

Xiaomi is anticipated to launch its new premium tablet lineup, likely named the Xiaomi Pad 7 series, in early Q4 2024. Rumors suggest there will be at least three different models, with two featuring flagship-level hardware. Additionally, the brand is expected to introduce its first OLED tablet this year. Here’s a summary of what we know so far about the Xiaomi Pad 7 series.

1. Xiaomi Pad 7 could be similar to the 6S Pro

Earlier this year, Xiaomi launched the Pad 6s Pro (review), which featured a large 12.4-inch premium LCD display, alongside a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC. It is rumored that the Xiaomi Pad 7 base model will be reusing some of its hardware, including the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, and the 144Hz 3048 x 2032 pixels display. It is currently unknown if the tablet will retain its 12.4-inch display since leaks have suggested that the entire upcoming lineup could measure between 11 and 12 inches.

2. Two flagship models

As per a recent leak, the Pad 7 series could feature two flagship models powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Leading Version chip. While the naming scheme has not been disclosed yet, one of these models will likely be the Pad 7 Pro. Compared to the Pad 6 Pro which features a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip, the upcoming tablet will offer a substantial boost in performance in graphics-intensive tasks like gaming. It is more than likely that Xiaomi launch the second Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 tablet later down the line as the Xiaomi Pad 7S Pro.

3. Xiaomi OLED tablet incoming

The latest bits of leaked information claim that Xiaomi will finally be entering the OLED tablet market, to compete against the likes of Honor, Huawei, and Samsung. That being said, Xiaomi likely plans to test the waters first, which could be the reason that it has decided to launch its first OLED tablet with a sub-flagship level chip. This could mean that the upcoming tablet could be powered by either the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip or the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. The OLED tablet is also expected to offer an 11-inch display with a 144Hz refresh rate.

4. Other features

So far, it looks like the entire lineup will come with support for 120W fast charging, and likely a large 10,000mAh battery. These tablets will have up to 24GB of LPDDR5X RAM, paired with USD 4.0 storage and Xiaomi’s Android 15-based HyperOS 2. We can expect the software support to span at least 3 years based on past trends.

Design-wide, the Pad 7 series is expected to look quite similar to the Pad 6 series, featuring a premium metallic body with a frosted glass back finish. For audio, the tablets will have a stereo speaker setup, with a minimum of six speakers. We can also expect the tablets to come with a 50 MP primary camera sensor, paired with an auxiliary camera. On the front, they could feature a high-resolution camera sensor for video calls and selfies like its predecessor.

It is likely that the brand sticks to a side-mounted fingerprint sensor for security. It is unclear if Xiaomi will offer 5G/cellular connectivity on these tablets. That said, WiFi 7 will likely be supported, and a USB Type C 3.2 port is also expected to be present for fast data transfers.

Huawei Mate XT tri-foldable phone moniker officially confirmed, September launch expected

Sep 3, 2024

Several reports have claimed that Huawei will unveil the world’s first tri-foldable phone this month in China. In recent weeks, some leaked photos of the device have also appeared on Chinese social media platforms. However, none of the reports could confirm the name of the device. The Huawei Mate XT will be the official name of its first tri-foldable phone. This announcement, made by Yu Richard, Huawei CEO for Consumer Business Group and Chairman of the Intelligent Automotive Solutions BU, is generating considerable excitement in the tech community.

Huawei Mate XT: What’s known so far

According to Yu Richard, the Mate XT is Huawei’s most innovative and disruptive product yet—a realization of science fiction made possible through five years of persistence and investment. He has highlighted that this device represents the pinnacle of Huawei’s technological achievements, featuring a design and functionality that competitors have yet to match.

While the specific design and configuration details of the Mate XT are still under wraps, leaks suggest that the phone will feature a tri-fold screen with an inward folding, outward folding, and dual-hinge design. This innovative setup is expected to offer a screen size of approximately 10 inches when fully unfolded, with a centrally placed hole-punch camera on the far left. When used with a stylus, it can provide a tablet-like experience and greatly improve office efficiency.

The Mate XT, despite its complex design, is expected to offer excellent thickness control, measuring around 5mm when unfolded and approximately 15mm when folded, making it surprisingly sleek and manageable. The rear camera setup is expected to feature a circular, cantered module, like the design of the Mate 50 series, with a Paris studs encircling the camera.

The Huawei Mate XT is expected to be powered by the Kirin 9 series platform, offering top-tier performance and advanced features. According to reports, it will debut in September in China, but its availability is unknown.

Huawei will hold the Huawei Meet the Extraordinary Brand Ceremony and Hongmeng Intelligent Driving New Product Launch Conference on Sept. 10 at 14:30, where the brand is expected to showcase the Mate XT and other new products, including the Huawei Nova 13 series, new smartwatches, Zhijie R7, and Wenjie M9 five-seater version.

Sep 2, 2024

September’s here, folks, and you know what that means – a battle royale of new phone releases. The flagship season is already in full swing in fact, with Apple announcing the launch of the iPhone 16 series and Huawei confirming a new tri-folding phone.

But for those of us who value affordability without sacrificing all the bells and whistles, the mid-range market is where it’s at. And one of the most anticipated mid-range smartphone releases this year is the upcoming Redmi Note 14 series.

We haven’t heard an official peep yet, but considering Xiaomi’s usual cadence—the Note 13 series launched last September—an announcement for the Note 14 series seems imminent this month.

Thanks to reliable leaks and certifications, we have a decent idea of what these phones might offer. Let’s break down everything we’ve gathered so far about the Redmi Note 14 series.

1. Certifications

Redmi Note 13 Pro | Note 13 Pro+

First things first, Xiaomi is expected to launch at least three smartphones in the Redmi Note 14 series initially. The lineup will include the base Redmi Note 14 5G, the Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G, and the high-end Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G.

The most convincing evidence of their existence comes from certification bodies. And fortunately, all three phones have appeared in the IMEI and China’s Radio Certification. While these listings don’t spill the beans on specs, they confirm that these phones are indeed in the works.

The standard Redmi Note 14 and its Pro variant have also appeared on the 3C certification platform, revealing details about their charging.

The standard Note 14 is expected to support 45W wired charging, a noticeable upgrade from the 33W of its predecessor. Meanwhile, the Pro model will move from a 67W charger to a more impressive 90W option—ideal for those who need quick top-ups and can’t tolerate low battery life.

With that covered, let’s dive into the rumored details for each of these smartphones individually.

2. Redmi Note 14

As you might know, the Redmi Note 14 will be the most affordable handset in the line. It is said to feature a 1.5K AMOLED display, a step up from the upgrade from the FHD panel on its predecessor.

For photography, the Note 14 5G might come with a 50MP main rear camera. While it’s lower in resolution than the 108MP shooter on the Note 13 5G, the 50MP camera could use a better sensor for capturing high-quality photos, especially in good lighting conditions.

Under the hood, the Note 14 5G is rumored to be powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 6100+ chipset. It’s a mid-range processor manufactured on TSMC’s 6nm process node and should deliver performance just enough for everyday tasks.

3. Redmi Note 14 Pro

Moving on to the Redmi Note 14 Pro, its CAD render has been revealed in a leak recently. The render reveals that the phone will bring a new design from its predecessor.

The Note 13 Pro has its cameras positioned on the side without a dedicated module. However, the Note 14 Pro will have its cameras moved to the center and within a distinctive squircle module. The display will stay the same, though, with a 1.5K resolution and AMOLED panel.

For performance, the smartphone is expected to be powered by the new Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 processor. Its camera specs, however, might vary on the global and Chinese models, if a previous report is to be believed.

The global Note 14 Pro is said to come with a triple-camera setup with a telephoto module. But the Chinese counterpart may swap it for a less useful macro lens.

4. Redmi Note 14 Pro Plus

The Redmi Note 14 Pro, unsurprisingly, will be the most expensive device in the line. It will feature the same 1.5K AMOLED display as its more affordable siblings but is expected to have a curved panel for improved grip and aesthetics.

The back design of the phone will likely remain the same as the Note 14 Pro, though. A report further reveals that the Note 14 Pro+ will feature a plastic frame and an optical in-screen fingerprint sensor for security.

Under the hood, the 14 Pro Plus is expected to be powered by a Dimensity 7350 chipset. It’s a new chip from MediaTek, made on a 4nm manufacturing processor, and includes processing cores with a top speed of 3 GHz.

For the camera, a report from July suggests the following setup: a 50MP main camera, an 8MP ultrawide camera, and a 2MP macro camera on the back. The report also mentions that the decision to include a telephoto camera on the Note 14 Pro+ has reportedly been canceled by Xiaomi for some reason.

However, it’s a newer report that suggests the Note 14 Pro will have a telephoto camera in the global market. If that’s the case, it would be highly unlikely that Xiaomi will omit a telephoto camera for the even more expensive Pro Plus model.

All these details are based on leaks, so it’s best to take them with caution until official announcements are made.

UAE’s TDRA (Telecommunications Regulatory Authority) and the UL Demko certification platform have recently confirmed that the Galaxy Tab S10+ will come in both Wi-Fi and 5G versions. In related news, the Galaxy S24 FE has also been spotted on TDRA and TUV Rheinland certification platform.

TUV certification reveals that the Galaxy S24 FE will support 25W charging, the same as its predecessor. It’s also reported that the phone will support 9W wireless charging. Interestingly, the Galaxy S23 FE supports a relatively faster 15W wireless charging.

TUV certification also reveals that the phone will come in a total of seven models – SM-S721B/DS, SM-S721B, SM-S721N, SM-S721Q, SM-S721U, SM-S721W, SM-S7210. These model numbers are expected to represent the device in different markets, of which SM-S721B is the global version, and SM-S721U is for the US market.

According to the TDRA certification listing, the Galaxy S24 FE is “SM-S721B/DS”, where “DS” indicates that the device supports dual-SIM dual standby. The global variant (SM-S721B/DS) has also been approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which confirms that the phone will support Wi-Fi 6E (2.4GHz and 5GHz bands), NFC, Bluetooth 5.3, 5G connectivity, LTE, and GSM. The phone is said to measure 162mm and 77.3mm in height and width respectively.

We already know that the Galaxy S24 FE will be powered by a slightly downclocked version of the Exynos 2400 chip, which powers the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+. The phone is expected to be released between September to early October. In terms of appearance, the phone could be very similar to its predecessor, at least when it comes to the back design. Live images of the phone have already been revealed, which show a very similar camera module design, similar flat sides, and an identical placement of the flash module as compared to the predecessor.

Upcoming Smartphones in September 2024

1. Motorola Razr 50

Motorola has confirmed the launch of the Razr 50 smartphone in India on September 9th, following the earlier release of the Razr 50 Ultra in China and globally.

Expected to come in four memory variants (6/128GB, 8/128GB, 8/256GB, and 12/256GB), the phone is rumored to have a 50MP main camera with EIS and an 8MP front camera, available in purple, yellow, and green color options.

3. Apple iPhone 16 Series

Apple is gearing up to launch its iPhone 16 series on September 9th.

The iPhone 16 is rumored to feature a 6.1-inch XDR OLED display, while the iPhone 16 Plus may sport a 6.7-inch screen, both with a 60Hz refresh rate and Dynamic Island. They are expected to be powered by the A18 chipset, with storage options ranging from 128GB to 512GB.

4. Huawei Tri-Fold Foldable

Huawei has announced a product launch event for September 10th sparking anticipation about what might be unveiled. While the official event poster offers few details, speculation is rife that Huawei will introduce its first tri-fold phone. Richard Yu, CEO of Huawei’s Consumer Business Division hinted at a groundbreaking product, describing it as “the company’s most leading, innovative, and disruptive.”

Yu has been spotted with a tri-fold phone in public, and the event poster subtly features a silhouette of a tri-folding device, adding to the excitement. Leaked images suggest the phone will have a circular camera module, a slim profile when folded, and a 10-inch screen when fully unfolded. The design is expected to include inward and outward folding capabilities with a dual-hinge mechanism. The device is likely powered by the Kirin 9 series platform.

The live stream for the event is scheduled for September 10th at 14:30 (CST), and it will be available on Huawei’s official Weibo handle. All eyes are on Huawei as the company is set to reveal a product that could potentially redefine the foldable smartphone market.

5. Tecno Phantom V Fold 2, Phantom V Flip 2

Tecno is expected to launch upcoming foldable devices, the Phantom V Fold 2 5G and V Flip 2 5G globally in September. The devices were available for pre-order in Ghana from August 19 to 24, though the official launch date remains unannounced.

A recent leak revealed that the Phantom V Flip 2, a clamshell foldable, will be priced at GHS 9,800 ($626) for the 8GB RAM + 256GB variant, while the Phantom V Fold 2, a book-style foldable, will cost GHS 16,550 ($1058) for the 12GB RAM + 512GB version.

Though official specs are still under wraps, the Phantom V Fold 2 is expected to feature a 5,610mAh dual-cell battery with 70W fast charging, powered by the Dimensity 9000 Plus chipset.

The V Flip 2 is rumored to run on the Dimensity 8050. Tecno is positioning these foldables as more affordable alternatives to premium options like Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6, which starts at $1800, and Motorola’s cheapest 2024 clamshell foldable, priced at $700.

6. Vivo T3 Ultra

Vivo is reportedly set to expand its T3 lineup with the introduction of the Vivo T3 Ultra in India. According to reports, the T3 Ultra will be powered by the Dimensity 9200 Plus chipset, making it more powerful than the Vivo T3 Pro, which uses the Snapdragon 7 Gen 3. The Ultra variant is expected to be priced around Rs 30,000 ($358), slightly higher than the Pro model’s starting price of Rs 24,999 ($298).

The T3 Ultra is rumored to feature an IP68-rated body, a curved-edge AMOLED display with 1.5K resolution, and 4500 nits of peak brightness. It will also sport an OIS-enabled Sony IMX921 primary camera. The device, with model number V2426, has appeared on Geekbench, confirming the D9200+ chip, 12 GB of RAM, and Android 14.

Interestingly, these specs are similar to those of the Vivo V40 Pro, though the T3 Ultra may lack the Zeiss optics found in the V40 Pro. While the report suggests an early September launch, it seems more likely that Vivo will tease the device for a week before its official debut.

7. Realme P2 Pro

Realme is gearing up to launch the P2 Pro in India, following the recent release of the P1 and P1 Pro.

The phone is expected to come in Chameleon Green and Eagle Grey color options.

Pricing details are not yet confirmed, but it is expected to be priced in the sub-Rs 20,000 range, positioning it as a competitor to devices like the POCO X6 and iQOO Z9. The P2 Pro might share similarities with the recently released Realme 13 Pro, which features a 6.7-inch AMOLED FHD+ 120Hz screen, Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 chipset, and a 5,200mAh battery with 45W fast charging.

The series might include other models like the Redmi Note 14 Pro, which could feature a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chipset and 90W charging, and the Redmi Note 14 Pro Plus, rumored to have a Dimensity 7350 chipset and a 1.5K curved OLED display.

Is It Worth Upgrading from Your POCO F3? Here’s What You Need to Know

By

-

Sep 2, 2024

Smartphones are getting smarter and faster every year. There are improvements in camera technology and a lot more. But these upgrades don’t necessarily make your older phones obsolete. A good example of this is the POCO F3. It was a popular budget flagship phone from 2021, but is it finally time to upgrade from it? Read ahead to find out.

1. What does the POCO F3 offer?

Before we get to the answer to this question, let’s see what the POCO F3 offers the users. The Chinese brand unveiled the POCO F3 with some top notch specs and features. It sports a tall 6.67-inch AMOLED display that features an FHD+ resolution, a 120Hz refresh rate, HDR10+, and 1300 nits of peak brightness. Under the hood, the POCO F3 is equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 SoC that is coupled with up to 8GB of RAM and 256GB of internal storage.

A 4,520mAh battery pack powers this device, which supports 33W wired fast charging. For optics, you get a 48-megapixel triple camera setup, while the front houses a 20-megapixel shooter for selfies and video calls. Other notable features include a side mounted fingerprint scanner, Bluetooth 5.1, stereo speakers, and an IP53 rating for water and dust resistance.

2. So here’s why you should stick with the POCO F3

Looking at all of these specs and features, the POCO F3 is still a capable smartphone. It is still decent for gaming and heavy use with the Snapdragon 870 being a popular chipset from a couple of years ago. The display makes it great for content consumption as well.

You do miss out on a telephoto shooter, but the primary sensor and ultra wide angle lens are still capable. So all in all, it basically meets most requirements of modern users. The hardware on the POCO F3 is still better than most mid range devices so you’re really not missing out on much.

3. What you should keep in mind

It is worth noting that this doesn’t mean you’re all set for the next few years. There are some things to keep in mind. One might need to finally upgrade if the phone gets damaged and the hardware repairs get too costly. After a couple of years, the battery also slowly starts to degrade and may require a replacement.

However, it really isn’t worth it if the price is too high. Another aspect to consider is the software support. Back in June 2024, the POCO F3 did receive the Android 13 OS based HyperOS update. So the company is still supporting the device. So you can easily use it for the next couple of years.

OnePlus 10 & OnePlus 9 Users Beware! August Update Could Brick Your Phone

Sep 2, 2024

The situation around OnePlus has just gotten worse. Last week, we covered the entire OnePlus motherboard dying crisis and the brand’s official response. Now, it seems like even more OnePlus phones are getting bricked, but this time, an update might be the reason for this problem.

1. Are the OnePlus 10 & OnePlus 9 Series at Risk?

OnePlus 9RT

Parth Monish Kohli shared a tweet that warned owners of the OnePlus 10 and OnePlus 9 series from updating their phones. Apparently, the brand’s older flagship smartphones are facing issues after installing the August update. This issue is reportedly affecting the OnePlus 9, 9 Pro, 9R, 9RT, 10, 10 Pro, and 10R. While the exact problem is still unclear, the latest software update is bricking these older OnePlus smartphones.

Owners of these models have come forward saying that this particular update has damaged their OnePlus devices. Some claim that it is the motherboards that are getting damaged after the update. If this is true, then the company might be facing a faulty update. Keep in mind that the root cause of this issue is still unclear so take this report with a pinch of salt. But considering all the issues OnePlus users are facing, it won’t be a surprise.

2. Is this linked to the motherboard dying issue?

Recently, some OnePlus 10 Pro 5G users were complaining about their phones heating up and facing lags. Motherboards on some OnePlus devices died completely for a few people. But we don’t know if these two issues are directly connected, or whether the update somehow sped up the processor or made it more common. OnePlus has launched an investigation into this issue but these haven’t yielded any results so far. So till then, OnePlus 10 and OnePlus 9 series owners should likely steer clear from this update and stay tuned for more updates regarding this matter.
