Sony Xperia 1 VI launch event rumored to take place on May 17

Sony announced the Xperia 1 V on May 11 last year, and it seems like the Japanese company is planning to stick to almost exactly the same timeline in 2024. According to a leaked poster from Weibo, Sony will be holding an Xperia launch event on May 17.

The poster itself doesn't say which phone(s) will become official on that date, but it's pretty easy to assume that one (or the only one) will be the Xperia 1 VI, which has been leaking quite a bit lately.

The next Xperia flagship is expected to give up on the 4K screen and the 21:9 tall screen aspect ratio, going with a more industry...

OnePlus Pad 2's processor tipped

Last week, tipster Max Jambor claimed the OnePlus Pad 2 will be launched in the second half of 2024, which, he now says, will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 SoC.

If that's true, the OnePlus Pad 2 will become the first tablet to have the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip at the helm, unless any other brand manages to beat OnePlus by launching a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3-powered tablet first.

iOS 17.5 lets people in the EU download apps from websites

Today Apple has released iOS 17.5 beta 2 to developers, and we don't normally report on such releases, but this one's important, as it marks the debut of yet another feature Apple was forced to add thanks to the EU's Digital Markets Act (DMA).

Starting in iOS 17.5, EU iPhone owners will be able to download apps from websites - aka sideloading. No need to go through Apple's App Store, or any other app store for that matter - Apple also started supporting alternative app stores thanks to the DMA in iOS 17.4.

Now this takes the flexibility of finding apps one step further. However,...

Oppo A60 surfaces in the Google Play Console, has its specs revealed

Oppo's long-running A series of mid-range smartphones is soon due to receive a new member - the Oppo A60.

The A60 has been spotted in the Google Play Console, and as usual that listing reveals some if its specs, including the most important one - it will be powered by Qualcomm's Snapdragon 680 SoC, which is not 5G capable. The A58 4G went...
