Leaks / Rumors

More evidence that Garmin is preparing to upgrade its Fenix series of smartwatches has emerged online. While the Fenix 8 will likely launch alongside the MIP display-backed Fenix E, the Fenix 8 appears set to move away from MIP displays in favour of AMOLED alternatives.

The OnePlus Nord 4 might be a premium mid-range Android phone but its software support duration may be better than that of not just its predecessors and rivals, but also the flagship OnePlus 12. Combined with impressive specs and a great price should make it an easy recommendation.

Google is roughly a month away from hosting its next hardware launch event, where it is expected to announce not just the Pixel 9 series but also the Pixel Watch 3 and a larger Pixel Watch 3 XL model. In the meantime, a typically reliable leaker has shared new specs about both of Google's next smartwatches, including battery and display details.

A tentative early leak suggests that Fujifilm will soon launch another video-centric camera similar to the X-S20. A rumoured spec sheet claims a 26.1 MP sensor and 7-axis IBIS, however video specifications are a step above the Fujifilm X-S20. With no word on naming, hints in the spec sheet and release date point to a premium replacement for the affordable Fujifilm X-A7 camera.

Google's August 13 launch event will not only bring new phones and smartwatches, but also a new pair of pro earbuds. The earbuds will be available in four colors at launch, one of which matches the Pixel 9.

The Redmi K70 Ultra is set to be officially unveiled in the coming weeks. As a foretaste, Xiaomi has just released the first images of the "flagship killer" in advance and confirmed details of the features, including the flagship SoC and 144 Hz QHD+ display.

The Apple iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max will not only receive a battery with higher energy density and capacity as well as a metal casing for safer repairs, but also a long overdue fast charging upgrade, at least according to the latest rumors.

Golden Pig Upgrade, a well-known Weibo tipster, reports that AMD is getting ready to launch a new Hawk Point APU. It will reportedly be called the Ryzen 7 8745HS, and the processor is said to be identical to the Ryzen 7 8845HS but without the XDNA NPU, potentially making it offer a better value than the identical chip.

Samsung failed to live up to all the leaks pointing to an inaugural Ultra variant for the Galaxy Z Fold series today (July 10, 2024), thereby giving weight to a new rumor that the OEM has in fact decided that the time for an even more premium foldable smartphone has not yet arrived. Apparently, the arrival of actual competition in that space have put those plans on hold.

Rumored to cost similar to the Ryzen 7 7700X, the 8-core Ryzen 7 9700X based on the Zen 5 architecture has appeared on Geekbench and the results are impressive, at least when it comes to the single-core performance. According to the leaked benchmark results, the Ryzen 7 9700X enjoys a double-digit single-threaded and a moderate multi-threaded gain over its predecessor.

A leak reveals the alleged spec sheet of the Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro. According to the leak, the next-generation flagships will receive upgrades to the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, a brighter AMOLED display and larger batteries.

A new leak pictures an upcoming camera from GoPro, and the form factor suggests a new GoPro Max 2 360-degree camera may be the action camera brand's next launch. It is also, however, possible that the new GoPro camera will be an FPV drone unit.

A heretofore-unknown Honor model number that has materialized on Geekbench is thought to be evidence of the more affordable version of the brand's upcoming Magic V3 Android foldable flagship smartphone. Should that be the case, the "Vs3" will use an older chipset than its top-end counterpart.

The Xiaomi 15 and Xiaomi 15 Pro are coming soon in just over three months, but the Xiaomi 15 Ultra is also in the pipeline, as the first concrete clues of a total of three international models reveal, including a global one for Europe.

A certification provides the first images of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip6 alternative Xiaomi Mix Flip, which will at least be launched in China in July. The NCC not only provides real images of the exciting flip phone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 and presumably a telephoto camera - there is also concrete evidence of the battery and fast-charging specs. One well-known leaker has already named the Mix Flip as the "best flagship flip phone on the market".

As the launch of the next-generation Nintendo Switch draws near, a leaker has commented on the power dissipation of the new Nvidia Tegra T239 ARM chip, which apparently depends heavily on whether the console is used in handheld mode or in the dock.

The AMD Ryzen 5 9600‌‌‌X with its 6x Zen 5 cores and a boost clock of 5.4 GHz is the least powerful member of the Zen 5 family. However, even with its 6 cores, the CPU could overtake the Intel Core i9-14900KS in single-core workloads per a valid Geekbench 6 benchmark result.

Huawei’s next flagship Kirin SoC could finally bring flagship performance to the table as the latest rumor claims a substantial uplift over the Kirin 9010. If true, this will mark a significant milestone for Huawei which has been unable to compete with Qualcomm/Apple due to the harsh US trade ban.

The upcoming Tesla Model Y Juniper refresh has finally made an appearance. The new electric crossover sports similar visual upgrades to the Model 3 Highlands refresh under its bumper camo. It looks like Tesla is finally testing the new Model Y on public roads after it was seemingly postponed.

The Apple Watch SE is the cheapest model in Apple's line of smartwatches, but a change in the casing's material may bring the price even lower. On the other hand, the switch to a cheaper material may reduce durability.

Realme has announced that the upcoming flagship Android smartphone will have its brand's most cutting-edge OLED display on its launch, thereby giving it an unprecedented peak brightness level to go with its top-end Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor.

Apple is slated to celebrate the tenth anniversary of its flagship wearable in 2024. Nevertheless, the wearables are unlikely to evolve into truly smart Watches on that date, according to a new leak.

Samsung is slated to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold6 as its latest foldable flagship Android smartphone in just a few days from today (July 7, 2024). However, a new leak purports to spoil the differences in form-factor between it and its Fold5 predecessor - or lack thereof, that is. The extent of the rumored S24 Ultra influence on the new model's design may also have been proven thanks to this new tip.

The Realme 13 Pro Plus is a smartphone slated to come with a new kind of telephoto lens that will be exclusive to it on its impending launch, yet will also feature in even higher-end new handsets thereafter. Now, the Android device is rumored to come with a transparent rear panel that puts the potentially trend-setting lens on show.

A leak also has its good side, as manufacturers are confronted with errors that have potentially crept into marketing materials. This appears to have been the case with the Galaxy Z Flip6 data sheet, which landed on the internet a few days too early and apparently contained incorrect information.

Realme has confirmed that its impending mid-range Android smartphone series flagship will have not one but two 50MP rear cameras. Furthermore, one of them will be a new periscope zoom module based on one of Sony's latest sensors, while the other will be based on its entirely new courterpart with optical image stabilization (OIS).

However, not all of the updated devices will be available in all regions presented to on the day.

Realme has announced that its highest-end smartphone of 2024 thus far will debut with the OEM's cutting-edge Sky Communication System for enhanced wireless connectivity even in typical dead zones for signal.

A new Sony ZV-E10 II leak claims that the upcoming APS-C camera will have no mechanical shutter, solidifying its intended video-centric audience. The ZV-E10 II will allegedly be able to capture 4K 10-bit 4:2:2 video. These upgrades will also come with a painful price increase.

Xiaomi has not released any foldables globally yet, such as last year's MIX Fold 2 or MIX Fold 3.
