I’ve been as much of a thin phone skeptic as anyone. Why would I give up on camera specs and battery life just to shave a couple of millimeters off a phone’s waistline? I asked pretty much exactly that when I first saw Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge earlier this year. But the Motorola Edge 70 […]
The Redmagic 11 Pro is the first phone (outside of a OnePlus concept design, at least) to feature true liquid cooling, and it’s launching worldwide later this month — including the US, though you won’t be able to buy it direct from any carriers. We’ve seen plenty of phones launch with vapor chambers and call it […]
There is no more chaotic activity than willfully entering a grocery store without a list. I know. Some people thrive on vibes-based grocery shopping. They can come up with meals on the fly, buy what’s on sale and work around that, or follow some bizarre “3-3-2-2-1” rule or whatever I’m always seeing on Instagram. I […]
Ayaneo is best known for its retro gaming handhelds, but the company has now confirmed its first phone will be coming soon. Ayaneo briefly teased that it was working on a phone back in August during the event where it unveiled the dual-screen Pocket DS. Of course, many of the company’s gaming handhelds run a […]
Whenever I review a phone, one of the first things I do after setting it up is charge it to full and then just… let it run, using it as my only phone for as long as I can, resisting every urge to charge it along the way. The Oppo Find X9 Pro lasted for […]
Almost exactly a month ago, I wrote an article for theverge.com pointing out that the T1 Phone 8002 (gold version) — a.k.a. the Trump phone — had missed its promised release date. Now here I am again, because the phone still hasn’t come out. In case you’ve forgotten, the T1 is a very gold mid-range Android […]
Vivo’s flagship X300 and X300 Pro only launched in China two weeks ago, but they’re getting an international release faster than we’re used to from Vivo. Today, the company announced that both phones are going on sale outside China, including a handful of European countries, and bringing with them OriginOS — Vivo’s previously China-only Android-based operating […]
Samsung is bringing its mobile web browser to bigger screens. It’s launching a beta version of its Samsung Internet on PC with support for cross-device syncing, which should make it easier to access all your browsing data if you’ve never switched to a different default browser on your Samsung device. The desktop browser is only […]
After Nothing’s recent flagship Phone 3 ditched its trademark Glyph Lights in favor of a dot matrix display, the new Phone 3A Lite brings them back — but only one of them. The affordable phone launches today in the UK and Europe, but won’t get a release in the US. The 3A Lite features just […]
Oppo has announced the international launch of its Find X9 and Find X9 Pro flagships, and both phones are going on sale in the UK and Europe. Best of all, unlike some other Chinese phones, there’s been no reduction in battery capacity for the global release, making these two of the longest lasting phones in […]
