Oppo's Find X8 is expected to land in October, and today some leaked hands-on images purportedly show a live working prototype.
As you can see, the Find X8 in question is using a huge case that's meant to cover up the fact that it's an unreleased smartphone roaming the streets of China.
In the rightmost image we see Oppo's interpretation of Apple's Dynamic Island at work.
The Find X8 has also been rumored to 'borrow' the Camera Control from the iPhone 16 family. The Find X8 will have a 6.5" to 6.7" flat screen with 1256x2760 resolution, according to previous rumors. It will be...

All iPhone 16 models have 8GB of RAM
Apple has never publicly revealed how much RAM its iPhones have, so we're left waiting for teardowns usually in order to confirm the specific amounts. This time around, we might not have to. A new report from MacRumors, in partnership with iSWUpdates, tells us that all four iPhone 16 models, which were announced yesterday, boast 8GB of RAM.
That means the iPhone 16 Pro and iPhone 16 Pro Max have kept the same amount their predecessors had, but the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus have 2GB more than the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus.
This probably explains why the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15...

Sony announces the PlayStation 5 Pro with upgraded GPU and AI image upscaling
Sony has announced its most powerful game console yet, the PlayStation 5 Pro, which is an updated model of the PlayStation 5 that was announced back in 2020.
Like the PS4 Pro before it, the PS5 Pro is aimed entirely at improving the graphical fidelity of its games, with three key new improvements towards that goal.
The first of this is an upgraded GPU. While it's still based on the same architecture, the PS5 Pro GPU now features 67% more compute units and 28% faster memory. Sony claims that these changes provide 45% faster rendering of games compared to the PS5.

Sony may not be launching a new Xperia 5 model this year, according to Japanese media
Sony unveiled the Xperia 1 VI and Xperia 10 VI on May 15 and left fans of small flagships waiting for the Xperia 5 VI. However, that model may have been axed.
Sony will not release a new model in the Xperia 5 series, according to a recent press conference, which had two general managers from Sony in attendance, reports K-Tai Watch. Instead, Sony plans to continue selling the Xperia 5 V from last year. This decision apparently applies both to the domestic and the global markets.
What happened? This move is allegedly due to change in consumers’ buying habits. Sony saw an increased...

iPhone 16's new supercharged Camera Control button is some proper innovation
Outside of developing its own silicon for its iPhones, Apple has not been really innovative with its iPhone releases in recent years. However, the new Camera Control feature that's available on all iPhone 16 models this year could be one of the best features it has introduced in recent years. And in typical Apple style, it's simple, useful, and it combines recent technological advancements.
Unlike the Action Button they introduced last year, the Camera Control isn't exactly a button. It's a small touch-capacitive area with pressure-sensitive sensors and haptic motors beneath that...

Here are the Apple iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Pro prices around the world
Apple just introduced the iPhone 16 phones with A18 chipsets. Plenty of new AI-powered software features will be enabled next month for free, and here's how much the phones themselves will cost.
We've compiled prices for the United States, United Kingdom, Germany (which is more or less the same across the whole EU), India, China, and Japan. The prices remain unchanged from last year with one exception being India, where the Pro variants actually got cheaper.

The Apple Watch Series 10 is thinner and lighter, has the largest display yet, a titanium version too
Apple kicked off its big event with watches – a Series 10 that is almost a complete redesign and a new look for the Ultra 2. We’ll start with the brand new model.
Apple Watch Series 10
This new generation has the biggest display of any Apple Watch – yes, this includes the Apple Watch Ultra 2 – and is also the thinnest watch from the company. Additionally, charging has been sped up significantly. Long story short, this is like a more slender Ultra and it even has a new titanium version.

Upcoming Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 series will be more expensive than expected
Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Tab S10 flagship tablets soon, as the devices were spotted in leaked promo images. Today, a new report comes from Switzerland, where the prices for the S10+ and S10 Ultra options were posted.
The new tablets could be about CHF 150 (about €100) more expensive than the previous series, which would be an interesting sight because they are rumored to have a Dimensity 9300+ chip.

Google Pixel 9 Pro XL vs. Pixel 8 Pro
This year Google added a new model to its flagship lineup - Google Pixel 9 Pro XL, dethroning last year's Google Pixel 8 Pro as a top-tier Pixel in the family. Despite what the name suggests, the 9 Pro XL is more of an iterative update than a revolutionary reboot.
Furthermore, the Pixel 9 Pro XL's launch price is considerably higher than the going price for the 8 Pro. So, on paper, the 8 Pro seems like the more sensible choice. The devil is often in the details, though, so let's see if the 9 Pro XL deserves its price premium.

Honor MagicBook Art 14 review
Back in July, Honor unveiled the MagicBook Art 14 for the Chinese market and it looked truly impressive on paper.
It has a nearly 15-inch screen (14.6-inch) with the very convenient 3:2 aspect ratio, and it's a 120 Hz touchscreen OLED panel to boot. The laptop has a 60Wh battery, a full set of ports, Intel's Core 7 Ultra 155H processor with up to 32 GB of RAM, and up to 1 TB of storage.
All that fits in a 1.03kg package - you read that correctly - a feather above 1kg. To put that into perspective, the 15.3-inch MacBook Air has only around 7% more display area (677cm2 vs 634cm2) but...

Android 15 out to devs, Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 is here, Week 36 in review
Another week down, so let's recap. Google released Android 15 to developers and Pixels are expected to get the update within "weeks". Other makers should announce their update roadmaps shortly.
Qualcomm unveiled the Snapdragon 6 Gen 3. The new mid-range platform comes to take over from the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 as the company seemingly forgot there's no second-gen version of the 4nm chip. The Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 brings improved AI performance for tasks like activity tracking and noise cancellation during calls. The chip is really similar to the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 with some downgrades in the...

Deals: the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is here, the small Pixel 9 Pro is a week out
We welcomed the vanilla Google Pixel 9 and the Pixel 9 Pro XL flagship at the end of August, now attention shifts towards the small Pro and Google’s next-generation foldable.
The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold shifts to a more traditional 20:9 aspect ratio for the cover display, compared to 17.4:9 for the original Pixel Fold. Also, the inner display grows significantly with the new 8” diagonal. There’s also the more efficient Tensor G4 chipset, but that pretty much covers the major upgrades this year.
