Launch

OnePlus’s first smartwatch wasn’t quite the flagship wearable many of us hoped it to be. Part of it has to do with the fact that the watch ran on a proprietary OS. Well, after about three years, the brand has launched its successor, the OnePlus Watch 2, and this time, it’s positioning itself as a true flagship with Wear OS.

Artificial intelligence is now setting the tone everywhere, including modems and wireless systems. In the next generation of Qualcomm's smartphone mobile platforms, the Snapdragon X80 modem RF system presented today at Mobile World Congress 2024 and the FastConnect 7900 radio system on a chip will be responsible for improved connectivity, with AI wielding the baton.

Lenovo launched the Gen 1 ThinkPad X12 Detachable laptop tablet back in 2021. It stood as an excellent pick for mobile productivity, but the specs are now relatively outdated. Well, after about three years, Lenovo has finally launched the Gen 2 with the latest Intel Core Ultra CPUs.

Lenovo is doing a reversal when it comes to the repairability of its ThinkPad T series: The new Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 5 features two SO-DIMMs and a user-replaceable internal battery. To prove its progress in modularity, the Chinese manufacturer had it reviewed by iFixit - the new ThinkPad laptop scored a near perfect 9.3/10.

The new thin and lightweight ThinkPad T14s G5 is a major redesign of this thin and lightweight laptop. Importantly, Lenovo axes the AMD version of this model, going Intel-only. The new design focuses on making the device smaller and minimizing screen bezels.

The Xiaomi Smart Band 8 Pro launched in the Chinese market back in August of last year. After about six months, the smart health and fitness tracker is finally stepping out of China. The good thing is that its global pricing is not too far from the Chinese launch price tag, making it a good health and fitness smartwatch for the money.

The Honor Magic6 Pro made its official debut in China in the middle of January, and the global debut was later teased for MWC 2024. As the teaser stated, the Android smartphone has just been unveiled for the international market. It has the same Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, 108 MP periscope camera, and on-device AI as the Chinese variant.
