The X Fold2 post-teardown. (Source: WekiHome via YouTube)

Vivo X Fold2 proves surprisingly easy to disassemble and re-assemble in new video

At a starting price of well over US$1,000, the Vivo X Fold2 is probably the world's most expensive new foldable smartphone. It is also the first of its kind that packs 120W wired charging and 50W wireless charging into its thin and light form-factor. Then again, according to a new online tear-down, it should be relatively easy to fix, at least.

Samsung is now said to launch next-gen flagship Android smartphones that go to whole new lengths for increased screen-on time.

The OEM is said to partner with 2 Chinese companies in the industry for this purpose.

Apple is tipped to try and make the world accept its Reality (headset) during WWDC 2023. The first-gen VR/AR platform is now backed to come with its own version of Safari, FaceTime, Fitness, Siri and more on its allegedly impending launch. However, it seems the Cupertino giant has gone and developed something for it that might end up being a major sticking point to its adoption.

MSI Stealth 17 Studio review: A laptop with a quiet RTX 4080 for almost every occasion

89% MSI Stealth 17 Studio review: A laptop with a quiet RTX 4080 for almost every occasion

Quiet gaming. The Stealth 17 is reluctant to ascend to the fps throne. It prefers to offer fast video editing, relaxing gaming sessions and brilliant images and tries to find the middle ground between a laptop for creators and gamers. The RTX 4080, an Intel Core i9-13900H as well as a 4K mini-LED display provide an excellent basis for this - if only it weren't for some minor flaws.

Gone with the wind. Gaming in 21:9 ultrawide aspect ratio can be very impressive. When working, placing several windows side by side can be handy. So far, there have been mostly suboptimal VA panels and some more expensive IPS representatives. Philips, on the other hand, sends a curved OLED with fast response times, 175 Hz and potentially great colors into the race. We test whether it is worth it for gamers and productive users.
