Leaks / Rumors

Vivo has set the date on which it will launch the V29e. The smartphone will become the latest Android smartphone to boast "the magic of color changing" on the Indian market later in August 2023. It will also have an unusually high-res selfie camera and the "slimmest 3D curved screen" in its price range.

Apple's flagship tablet may get a major upgrade next year. Per industry tipster Mark Gurman, Apple will equip the next version of the iPad Pro with the company's upcoming M3 chip, the same silicon rumored to debut in MacBooks later this year.

Huawei's supposedly upcoming Mate 60 series is thought to stick with the classics in terms of design in 2023. Then again, it is also thought to come with a new type of screen that adopts the Apple Dynamic Island trend in earnest for the first time. The latest pre-launch renders associated with the devices hints that it is exclusive to the highest-end variant, however.

Official images of the Venu 3 and Venu 3S have surfaced online before their official release. Not only has Garmin refined their design from the Venu 2 series, but it has also equipped the pair with a new sensor array that can monitor skin temperature levels.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra could offer double the maximum storage compared to its predecessor. However, there is no word about a corresponding increase in memory with the higher-specced variants.

The Realme 11 is coming to finally join its Pro siblings on the Indian market soon. However, the former China-only Android smartphone might be overshadowed by a more novel X variant that will also launch during the brand's 5th Anniversary event. It is touted to deliver a "Double Leap" in terms of design with a high-res rear camera with "Double Speed" SuperVOOC charging, as well as a "world-first" setting for its 5G connectivity.

The RX 7800 XT and the RX 7700 XT supply at launch could be plentiful if the newest report from Moore’s Law Is Dead is accurate. The leaker alleges that AMD has been stockpiling Navi 32 dies and is only waiting for the “RDNA 2 supply to sell through before being released”. Additionally, it appears that NVIDIA will decrease the channel pricing of the RTX 4060 Ti to make the GPU more competitive vs the new Radeon boards.

New Tesla Cybertruck footage shows a comically-large wiper in a mild off-road stint. In a separate video, the Cybertruck is seen wearing a green Toyota Tundra wrap on a highway cruise. Upon closer inspection, the Tundra-wrapped Cybertruck may have some serious panel gap issues.

The GT5 is touted as Realme's return to the upper echelons of the performance smartphone arena in 2023. Now, it seems it might indeed have a good chance of competing with its top-end specs, which include the new definition of maxed-out RAM. It might still run Android 13 out of the box, though.

The next crop of iPad Pro-series devices is already slated to emerge with series-first OLED displays in 2024. Now, the slates are also projected to arrive alongside new Magic Keyboards that allegedly finally address the main drawbacks of their aging predecessors. However, such news might not all be good for owners of existing Apple flagship tablets.

In the rumor mill for a while, the upcoming Redmi K70 Pro will use the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor and, according to the latest leaks, this handset will hit the global market as a POCO device, namely F6 Pro. Data from Mi Code also reveals that this handset will use an OLED panel made by TCL.

The tipster behind a recent claim that the Nintendo Switch 2 would actually materialize as the Nintendo Focus has offered up some new details about the Switch successor console, some games, and even a Pro controller. Interestingly, there was a time when the Nintendo NX, which later became the Switch, was rumored to be heading for release as the Nintendo Focus.

A new rumour from Weibo says Huawei plans to launch new Kirin SoCs for smartphones. It will be manufactured on SMIC's 7 nm node or could stack two 14 nm chips on top of each other.

Darin Tyrone Harris, the man who recently leaked over 40 minutes of gameplay of the much-hyped open-world RPG Starfield, has been arrested for property theft. He had uploaded videos showing him mailing allegedly stolen copies of the game that he had posted for sale online. Starfield will be launching at the start of September on Xbox and Steam.

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra is now projected to be a markedly wide Android flagship smartphone - wider than its S23 Ultra predecessor, in fact, in a way that might render even the next top-end iPhone a more compact device. The design switch is still the stuff of rumor, yet has already attracted criticism from a famous, typically reliable leaker, which mirrors that directed at the Galaxy Notes of old.

The N3 Flip is now officially set to launch as OPPO's first foldable smartphone of 2023. Its clamshell form-factor has been redesigned to accommodate a more pronounced camera hump in this generation; now, the OEM has posted a preview of what it is capable of ahead of its formal August 2023 debut. The shots offer some insight into the new Flip's "Hasselblad portrait" shooters and what they are capable of in advance.

Samsung is said to have updated its second-gen smart tracker to premium ultra-wide band (UWB) connectivity and a larger, possibly more user-friendly, form-factor. Its latest leak purports to confirm this design change as well as an approximate date for the accessory's launch. The "Galaxy SmartTag 2" is now also slated to come in limited color SKUs and multi-pack options on its debut.

RedMagic touts its 8S Pro as the most "evolved" Android gaming smartphone on the global market due to its "True Full AMOLED Screen" experience driven by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2's Leading Version. However, its immediate successor the 9 Pro could be even better adapted thanks to an upgrade to the upcoming 8 Gen 3, according to a new leak.

The cyber criminal from Great Britain supposedly connected to the internet via a regular Amazon Fire TV Stick and a television set in his hotel room, which he used to gain unauthorized access to the source code of the highly anticipated sixth main entry in the Grand Theft Auto series, also known as GTA 6.

Honor has already debuted one foldable Android smartphone in 2023 - now, it is projected to release another before the end of the year. Then again, this new model may not be an iterative upgrade for the OEM's flagship, but rather one with downgraded specs and maybe even a different form-factor this time around. If so, it might turn out much more like a certain Huawei device than the current "thinnest ever" Magic V2 flagship.

Xiaomi has certified the 2312DRA50C and 23090RA98C in China, which are both rumoured to be members of the Redmi Note 13 family. Based on new MIIT certifications, the pair will both feature 6.67-inch OLED displays that resolve at 2,712 x 1,220 pixels. A few differences exist between the pair though, giving rise to the belief that one is a more premium alternative to the other.

Realme has now confirmed the Pixel 7 Pro-esque nature of its upcoming flagship Android smartphone's design. However, unlike other smartphones with a similar rear camera hump, the GT5 boasts a new version based on something called Miracle Glass developed in partnership with BYD. The device's look is also augmented with a second-gen Nothing Phone-esque Halo LED.

A couple of leaks concerning the expected PlayStation 5 Pro console have turned up, resulting in some contrasting news in regard to the device’s so-called Viola APU.

The RTX 4060 Ti might be getting a price drop according to a new leak from Moore's Law Is Dead. Per one of the leaker's "best NVIDIA sources", the company will drop prices of the RTX 4060 Ti in the coming weeks to compete with the RX 7800 XT and RX 7700 XT GPUs that AMD is expectedly revealing at Gamescom.

AnTuTu Benchmark is abuzz with talk of a new device with the highest scores for the MediaTek Dimensity 8200 processor to date.

The Legion Go is Lenovo's first gaming handheld, with the company cancelling the Legion Play last year. Based on several benchmark listings, it appears that Lenovo has decided to go the way of One-netbook and equip the Legion Go with a 1600p display, which also has a 16:10 aspect ratio.

It seems that there could be signs that Google may be moving away from offering SIM card slots in its Pixel smartphones for some markets. While only a theory for now, an Android expert does not consider the idea an impossibility at this stage.

According to reports, AYANEO is preparing to launch a second Android gaming handheld, with the Pocket Air already in the pipeline. Supposedly being developed under the codename Project S, the AYANEO Pocket S may feature a Qualcomm chipset that outperforms the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Renders of the alleged AYANEO Pocket S have also surfaced online.

An industry analyst has said the iPhone 15 Pro Max (or iPhone 15 Ultra) could launch 3-4 weeks after the iPhone 15 Pro and non-Pro models. The delay is due to Sony being unable to deliver the smartphone's periscope telephoto lens on time.
