Qualcomm quietly unveils the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 chipset

Qualcomm’s current naming scheme can sometimes be confusing, but the “s” generally denotes a “step-down” model in the lineup, and that’s exactly what the new Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 is. Qualcomm quietly put up information about the new mobile platform on its site without much fanfare. We kind of understand why since the Snapdragon 6s Gen 3 isn’t a particularly intriguing chip.

It is available in a 4G (SM-6370) and a 5G (SM6375-AC) variant, and that model number offers a big hint about the chipset’s origins. The SM6375 is the Snapdragon 695 – a chip from 2021 that was later rehashed in 2021 as...

Samsung Galaxy Watch FE shows up in Amazon listing

The Galaxy Watch FE is definitely on its way. That much is already certain. We have plenty of leaks to prove it, including one from the official Samsung website. There is also the fact that the company is already giving one away to buyers of the S24 series over in Belgium. In fact, we currently believe that the Watch FE might actually be unveiled in late June, prior to the big Samsung Unpacked event in July.

Amazon listing

In yet another hint that the Galaxy Watch FE is inching closer and closer to release, the device has now been spotted in a listing on Amazon Italy. The page...

Deals: Xiaomi 14 Ultra price drops by £200, vanilla Xiaomi 14 gets £100 cheaper

In our review of the Xiaomi 14 Ultra, we called its camera system “nearly flawless”. However, the Cons section points out that this is a pricey phone – and it still is, though a bit less than usual right now.

Amazon UK has knocked some £200 off the regular price of the 16/512GB model, which is the only one available in the UK. This offer only applies to the White colorways and there aren’t all that many units left in stock.

The smaller Xiaomi 14 also got a glowing review and it corrects one of the few complaints we had about the Ultra – battery life....

Oppo Find X7 Ultra update brings 25MP photo mode

Oppo has been doing a great job lately, bringing new features and polish via updates, especially on flagship products like the Find X7 Ultra. The latest update for the particular phone – PHY110_14.0.1.628(CN01) brings about the “typical” changes one would expect, like improved system responsiveness and fluidity and a May 2024 security patches.

Oppo Find X7 Ultra update

However, it also enables a new 25MP photo capture mode in the default camera app. By default, the Find X7 Ultra captures stills in right around 12.5MP from its main 50MP Quad-Bayer camera. 25MP is a nice and...

Deals: Pixel 8a paired with $100 gift card, but Galaxy A35, S23 FE and OnePlus 12R prices fall

So, the Google Pixel 8a costs $500, huh? Looking at the poll from last week, most people think that this is too expensive for a mid-ranger. And indeed it is, considering that the flagship Pixel 8 has been quite close to this price many times in the past.

But not now, though. The Pixel 9 series is still a few months out, but the Pixel 8 is rather pricey right now and some colorways are almost out of stock. And the 8a is getting some deals.

For example, Amazon is offering a $100 gift card with the purchase of a Google Pixel 8a. This can be spend on a case, a charger, headphones or...

Let’s kick things off with the vanilla Motorola Razr 50, which will also likely be known as the Moto Razr 2024 in some markets. The upgrade in design compared to the predecessor is pretty substantial. Notice the leather finish on the back for an extra premium look and feel. The larger external display instantly stands out, now sitting at 3.63 inches...

Samsung Galaxy Book4 Edge pricing leaks

Ever since Qualcomm announced its Snapdragon X Elite ARM-based chips for Windows on ARM laptops there has been sort of a race to the finish line from manufacturers to put out actual products with the chip. Samsung might be the first across said line with its Galaxy Book4 Edge line. We already had some specs and rough pricing for the 14-inch model, but now thanks to a Swedish retailer, we have a better overall picture.

Our Nubia Flip battery life test is ready

We've just completed the Nubia Flip battery test and we are ready to share the results with you. This affordable foldable boasts a 4,310mAh battery which is amongst the largest cells fitted in the clamshell foldable space. It’s also rocking a midrange Snapdragon 7 Gen 1, which shouldn't be too power hungry, but is nearly two years old at this point.

Nubia Flip

With that in mind, Nubia Flip managed an Active use score of 8:39 hours which is less than stellar considering its rivals outshine it in direct comparisons. The 19:02 hour call time and 9:13 hour video playback scores are...

Kuo: iPhone 16 Pro Max to bring higher-density battery

We recently saw some comparison images between the iPhone 15 Pro Max and the upcoming 16 Pro Max showcasing their size differences. Now, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo is reporting on the battery of the next-generation Pro Max iPhone, claiming it will feature a higher energy density.

iPhone 16 Pro Max vs. 15 Pro Max

According to Kuo, the iPhone 16 Pro Max’s higher-density battery will offer longer battery endurance in the same form factor as the current battery cell used in the 15 Pro Max. The higher-density battery will emit more heat which is why Apple is rumored to use a stainless...

Apple iPad Pro 11 (2024) in for review

We've been hearing about the iPad's move to OLED since 2021, but we finally have an OLED iPad in our hands in mid-2024.

The unit we have for review is the 11-inch iPad Pro (2024) and it's a solid upgrade over its predecessor.

Part of that is down to the elapsed time - the last iPad Pro 11 came out two years ago. Sure, the M2 processor inside that tablet is no slouch, even in 2024, but the M4 inside the new Pro is built on a more efficient second-generation 3nm process, compared to the 5nm of the M2.

Some would argue whether an iPad needs an M4 chip over an A17 Pro, but this iPad...
