A new Motorola Edge smartphone is on the horizon, possibly the Motorola Edge 50. While Motorola is keeping quiet on multiple device elements for now, the company has revealed that the smartphone will utilise the same Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset as the upcoming OnePlus Nord CE 4.

There are new indications of the upcoming Vivo Pad 3 Pro flagship tablet, which is likely to come with one of the fastest chipsets currently available and could be unveiled in just a few days.

Sony's Xperia smartphones occupy a specific niche as one of the very few 21:9 aspect ratio devices in the Android world. However, their days as unusually tall, narrow handsets are numbered, according to a new leak. The upcoming 1 VI flagship is rumored to keep the typical Xperia camera hump, yet may launch as something more like a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra in terms of footprint nonetheless.

Information on the chipsets that will power the upcoming Poco F6 and Poco F6 Pro have now been revealed, indicating a rather peculiar situation in which the cheaper Poco F6 could actually deliver better CPU performance than the more premium Poco F6 Pro.

OnePlus has officially announced that its upcoming Ace 3V will be a world first, in that it will introduce a new Snapdragon 7-series SoC to the Android smartphone market. The chipset is touted to pack the "core advantages" of its top-end 8-series counterparts. They include "flagship AI capabilities" alongside potentially segment-leading power-efficiency and gaming proficiency.

Driven by the Android 13-based DokeOS 4.0 mobile operating system and powered by Unisoc's T616 SoC, the new Oscal Modern 8 smartphone will launch with two memory/storage configurations. The 8/128 GB variant will hit the market for just $95.99, while its 8/256 GB sibling will go for $108.21, but only until March 27th.

It seems that Xiaomi is continuing to develop the POCO C61 as a Redmi A3 alternative, even after bringing the latter to more markets. While Xiaomi has not officially confirmed the POCO C61 yet, more evidence of the device's existence has now surfaced online.

According to new rumours, Vivo is set to release the X Fold3 series globally. In the meantime, the Vivo X Fold3 has surfaced in several Geekbench listings running Android 14 with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset and 16 GB of RAM.

We reviewed the Samsung Galaxy Tab Active5 a few days back and had the opportunity to see for ourselves whether the robust 8-inch tablet with a removable battery is suitable for consumers as well.

The T30 Max is Doogee's latest large Android tablet. Equipped with a 12.4-inch display, the tablet outputs natively in 4K and is underpinned by a 10,800 mAh battery. LTE connectivity comes as standard too, among other features.

Motorola is said to be reviving its Fusion branding, which it last lent to the Edge 30 Fusion. Allegedly launching later this year as the Edge 50 Fusion, the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1-backed smartphone could prove a competitor to popular mid-range options like the Samsung Galaxy A54 or the new Galaxy A35.

Xiaomi has expanded the availability of one of its latest budget smartphones. Now sold in Europe for under €120, the handset runs Android 14 with the promise of updates until Android 16 and combines a 90 Hz display with a larger battery capacity, among other features.

A year after I/O 2023, Google will hold the I/O 2024 developer conference as a one-day event. For the past two years, the conference has been the setting for the release of the Pixel A series phones. So, there is a chance that Google will reveal the Pixel 8a at the event.

ASUS has now presented its latest flagship smartphone. Arriving as the Zenfone 11 Ultra without an accompanying smaller Zenfone 11, the device is a re-bodied ROG Phone 8 in many senses but with a slower display. Like the ROG Phone 8, the Zenfone 11 Ultra will only receive two Android OS upgrades despite retailing for €999.

Motorola has now revealed the launch date of a device that will 'witness the fusion of art and intelligence'. Seemingly, the device is the Edge 50 Pro, the company's first flagship since last year's Moto X40, which it will eventually release as the Moto X50 Ultra and Edge Plus 2024 too.

Xiaomi is probably working on a new tablet for its Redmi brand, which is likely to be positioned above the Redmi Pad and the Redmi Pad SE. Hints have emerged about the Redmi Pad Pro, which will probably come with a keyboard cover and smart pen.

According to a new report straight from a Korean source, Samsung's third foldable for this year will be a more affordable device than the Galaxy Z Fold6, not a more premium "Galaxy Z Fold6 Ultra" as earlier reports claimed.

A number of Galaxy Z Flip6 specifications have leaked on X giving us a deeper look into the upcoming smartphone. Per the leak, the device will feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC and bring up to 50% more RAM than its predecessor. Additionally, the phone will see the latest protection from Gorilla and bring a new main sensor.

Xiaomi's next flagship foldable, the Mix Fold 4, is expected to debut towards the end of the year. The Fold 4 will be the company's first foldable to launch globally, and seems to be equipped with upgrades to allow it take the fight to upcoming peers like the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Pixel Fold 2.

This year, Samsung's flagship is once again a benchmark for the entire industry in many respects. But other manufacturers are also preparing to launch strong products that are expected to give the Galaxy S24 Ultra a run for its money. We provide you with an overview.

Samsung is selling several of its Galaxy Android tablets at all-time low prices on Amazon. These include the Galaxy Tab A9+, Galaxy Tab S9, and Galaxy Tab S9 FE.

As it turns out, US buyers won't have to worry about whether the Galaxy A55 will ship with the Exynos 1480 SoC or its Qualcomm Snapdragon counterpart — because the mid-ranger won't make it to the US in the first place. It may be that it's just a little too close to the Galaxy S23 FE for Samsung's liking.

Vivo's next-generation foldable is almost here, likely packing Qualcomm's latest flagship chipset. Based on early camera samples, the Vivo X Fold3 Pro has 23 mm primary and 70 mm telephoto cameras, which would both be upgrades over last year's X Fold2.

OnePlus is currently gearing up to launch the Nord CE4 as its next Android smartphone for markets such as Europe. The OEM has shown the device off from the back, but not the front, thus far; however, a famous leaker now purports to have spoiled further teasers using the Chinese version of the same device, the Ace 3V. The new tip might also confirm the presence of a brand signature feature normally reserved for higher-end devices.

The Pova 6 is shaping up to launch as an Android 14 smartphone with the same high-capacity battery with upgraded charging, and, perhaps, the same Ultra-Slim Bezel screen as its recently-launched Pro sibling. Then again, some compromises have been made to render it the vanilla variant of its series.

It seems the Realme 12 series of mid-range Android smartphones has one more thing to add before the end of 2024, and that would be its final, possibly most affordable, variant. The 12x is all but confirmed to land in a new tip that hints at specs such as the same SoC as its higher-end sibling.

It seems that Google is working towards delivering a new display feature this year. According to new evidence, the feature will debut on Pixel flagships released this year, which could include the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel Fold 2.

Lenovo has now officially announced a new flagship Android tablet globally. Launching later this month across Europe, Africa, Asia and the Middle East as a re-branded Legion Y700 (2023), the Lenovo Legion Tab combines an 8.8-inch QHD+ display with a Snapdragon 8 series chipset and a 6,550 mAh battery for under €600.

Xiaomi has now officially revealed the POCO X6 Neo, a cheaper alternative to the POCO X6 and POCO X6 Pro. Available in three colourways and two memory options, the Xiaomi POCO X6 Neo shares all its features with last year's Redmi Note 13R Pro, including its reliance on Android 13 and MIUI 14.

A South Korean media outlet reports that Qualcomm's flagship APs could feature LPDDR6 memory. LPDDR6 standards are close to being finalized and will be presented later this year.

Vivo's upcoming flagship foldable, the Vivo X Fold3 Pro, has been spotted on AnTuTu. It packs a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB storage and a 120 Hz screen. Rumours suggest it will be launched sometime in the coming weeks.

Ross Young, a well-renowned display analyist, has confirmed the Pixel Fold 2 is due to launch later this year. Both its primary and cover displays will be remarkably larger than the original.

A recent study exposes a gap in the way many US teens think about their smartphones. Around three quarters feel that they are more peaceful without them, while almost half still complain of separation anxiety.

Nothing has just released its latest, and most affordable-grade yet, Android smartphone via its own web-store. The "powerfully unique" new Phone (2a) is offered with same-day shipping, not to mention twelve months' worth of access to a paid AI "answers engine" for a limited time.

Android 14 QPR3 Beta 2 has arrived for Google Pixel devices, bringing numerous bug fixes to the Pixel 5a onwards. Additionally, Google has included several new features, the biggest of which is external monitor support for the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro. As a result, both devices can now imitate Samsung DeX through their built-in desktop modes.

A new leak has now corroborated previous reports about the identity of the Poco F6. Like its elder sibling, the Poco F6 Pro, the vanilla Poco looks set to a rebadge of another Xiaomi device, albeit one currently unreleased.

Although it was unleashed a week ago, the March Pixel Feature Drop has barely started its US rollout. According to multiple user reports, the update is now reaching compatible Pixel devices on AT&T, Google Fi, and T-Mobile. Verizon users were the last, with Pixel 8 and Pixel 7 devices being updated first.

It may not just be one Snapdragon X Elite for everyone, as Qualcomm recently tried to have us believe. Since the latest driver leak, we now know that there are at least eight different variants, four of which are not named Snapdragon X Elite but Snapdragon X Plus. This certainly indicates different price levels and configurations.

For the first time in what feels like forever, Samsung is planning to change the main camera in the Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+, according to a leaker's sources. What is also exciting about the change is that Samsung apparently intends to use a Sony sensor instead of its own ISOCELL sensors.

The Moto G Power 5G 2024 is one of two new smartphones that Motorola has unveiled today. Sporting a 120 Hz display and a large battery, the new Moto G Power 5G also contains a recent MediaTek Dimensity chipset and a 50 MP primary camera, among other features.

The Moto G 5G (2024) has debuted shortly before its North American release. Arriving later this month in the US for $199.99, the Motorola Moto G 5G (2024) combines a modern Snapdragon chipset with a 120 Hz display underpinned by a 5,000 mAh battery.

Xiaomi has integrated a good number of convenient features into its MIUI and HyperOS. One of the noteworthy ones offers the ability to play YouTube videos in the background without purchasing the paid plan. But this free premium hack is getting removed to meet compliance requirements.

New benchmarks have now surfaced, showcasing the performance prowess of Qualcomm's upcoming chipset, the Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3. By all indications, the chipset can be expected to perform similarly to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy on last year's Galaxy S23 series.

The Vivo X100s has reportedly been finalized according to the reliable Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station. While details of the smartphone remain sparse, the leaker has shared some nuggets of information regarding the general design of the phone including the display and possible colors.

The Geekbench 6 multi-core performance of the Apple A18 Pro has leaked with a score that is not a whole lot different than the Apple A17 Pro. However, what should be a cause for concern is that the leaked A18 Pro performance could potentially put the chip far behind both the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 and the Dimensity 9400.

The powerful 8.8-inch Lenovo Legion Y700 (2023) Android tablet is expected to be released on non-Chinese shores as the Lenovo Legion Tab. While no official release date or price tags have been offered yet, there is some evidence to suggest that the Legion Y700 (2023)/Legion Tab will be coming soon but at a high price point.

OnePlus has unveiled the Nord CE 4, which will launch next month as one of the first devices with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 chipset. OnePlus has also revealed other device details, including the presence of two rear-facing cameras.
