Google launched its latest flagship, the Pixel 5, at the end of September 2020. However, unboxings, first impressions or reviews of this new phone are yet to emerge on YouTube. Then again, one UK-based vlogger claims to have the device in hand, having been sent it by a carrier in this country.

Even though the CPU ID reads 16C 32T, the thread count only shows 24 threads. Apparently only the 8 Golden Cove big cores support hyperthreading, while the 8 Gracemont small cores do not. The test sample seems to support only DDR4 memory, but this is probably due to the absence of DDR5 specs in the testing software.

Samsung is touting its new Galaxy Z Fold2 as an especially durable flexible-display device thanks to its updated hinge design and the ultra-thin glass (or UTG) that covers its main 7.6-inch screen. The YouTube channel JerryRigEverything (JRE) encountered this part of the premium device to a destructive extent during its obligatory teardown.

Tipster @UniverseIce claims that only Qualcomm's Snapdragon 875 will be utilizing ARM's high-performance X1 cores this generation. This is bad news for Samsung fans, as it means that the Exynos 2100 might fall behind considerably in single-threaded performance.

Dell is currently launching its latest UltraSharp monitors for home-office and prosumer use. The OEM also now unveils the SB521A, touted as the "world's lightest and slimmest soundbar". This accessory can snap onto a monitor from its own brand with its top-mounted magnets, thus immediately adding 3.6W RMS audio power to the display in question.

Remote-working products reign supreme at present; however, Dell has prepared its new Meeting Space Solutions against the come-back of the real-life boardroom. They are bundles tailored to in-person conference settings of different sizes and conformations, and also adapt to the software preferred by the business client in question: Microsoft Teams or Zoom.

Dell announced three new monitors joining its P-series of displays today. Included in the announcement are a 27-inch 4K monitor, a 32-inch QHD display, and a 34-inch Ultrawide (21:9) WQHD monitor. Each of these displays features a USB-C port that can be used for USB pass-through or a display input and can deliver up to 65 W of power to a connected device.

Although the Fossil Gen 5 smartwatch has been around for a year, the updated version will not hit the market as the Gen 6. Priced at US$249.99, the Gen 5E is slightly smaller and has less storage space than the Gen 5, but uses the same Snapdragon Wear 3100 processor. If everything goes smoothly, shipments should begin next month.

The Xiaomi Mi 10T Lite has made an appearance on the well-known AnTuTu benchmark where it managed to score 329,032 points according to an image shared on Chinese social media. This would place the new Mi 10T Lite just ahead of the OnePlus Nord mid-range champion in this particular speed test.

As the launch date of the upcoming AirPods Studio and HomePod Mini is drawing near, Apple is taking the final steps needed to maximize the success of its next-gen products. In a quiet move, the Cupertino-based giant removed all non-Apple audio gear — including brands like BOSE and Sonos — from its retail and online stores.

A fan-made image of some of the major titles lined up for the PlayStation 5 has appeared online and excited many waiting for their PS5 pre-order to be fulfilled.

The RTX A6000 and A40 have been introduced as state-of-the-art GPUs for content creation, data-centers or engineering. They are based on the latest Ampere architecture, and have been equipped with next-gen tensor, RT and CUDA cores. These cards are therefore rated to outstrip their Quadro predecessors in terms of throughput and performance.

A few Japanese media outlets were given an opportunity to take the Sony PlayStation 5 for a short spin and their experience with the console seems to have been largely positive. These publications report that the PS5 ran with minimal noise and had an extremely efficient cooling while playing games such as Astro's Playroom and Godfall. They also describe that the DualSense controller's haptic feedback and adaptive trigger helped elevate in-game immersiveness.

As with the Lenovo ThinkPad X13, the performance increase gained through Comet Lake on the ThinkPad X13 Yoga is marginal compared to its predecessor. Therefore, Lenovo could have definitely saved itself the leap to the current Intel CPUs.

The latest member of LG's mid-tier smartphone series comes with the OEM's 2020 flagship design language and a 5G processor. Now, a new leak suggests that there is more along the same lines in the works. Going by their apparent model numbers, they may fall into the US$200-400 price range.

Meanwhile, the OEM has released a new teaser video with a hint as how it will look with its new flat screen.

Qualcomm's Snapdragon 875 finally has a tentative release date of December 1, according to Roland Quandt. The chip is expected to feature the same 1+3+4 configuration employed by its predecessors, but with a Cortex-X1 Super core, three Cortex-A78, and four Cortex-A55 cores.

Google’s Pixel 5 differs from the Pixel 4 series in a number of ways, one of which is that it is missing the large top bezel of its predecessor. The new top bezel is much thinner, but this is not just because the Soli radar chip and facial recognition have been removed -- it is also because Google has hidden the front speaker of the Pixel 5 behind its display.

At a first glance, the new Xiaomi Mi 10T and Mi 10T Pro smartphones seem to be practically identical. However, there are a number of differences that help justify the currently €50 difference between the 8 GB + 128 GB variant of the Mi 10T and the Mi 10T Pro with the same RAM/storage configuration.

However, there are some naysayers who believe the PS5 performance improvement is all down to crafty editing.

As the first smartphone ever, the Redmi 10X 5G uses the new Mediatek Dimensity 820. In our test, this selection turns out to be a quite good choice. In the benchmarks, the Redmi 10X in parts outclasses the smartphone competitors, and the Taiwanese manufacturer also improved the efficiency.

The Realme X7 Pro is a potentially interesting flagship-level phone as it comes with the 5G-capable MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ SoC, a 120Hz AMOLED display and 65 watt (W) charging. Then again, it has only been available in China thus far. A new registration with a Thai regulator may change that situation soon, however.
