Ahead of the MWC, Tecno announced the world's thinnest smartphone, the Spark Slim. At only 5.75 mm thick, it features two 50 MP cameras and a powerful 5,200 mAh battery.
A significant caveat in this announcement is that the phone is merely a concept — there's no information available regarding a launch date. While the company will have demo units at the MWC we are unlikely to see it in the market in its current form.
The Spark Slim features a 6.78" AMOLED display with curved edges, offering 1224p.

Apple has offered a reason why the iPhone 16e doesn't include MagSafe, one of the more notable omissions from its latest entry-level smartphone. According to Apple representatives who spoke to Daring Fireball's John Gruber, MagSafe is not included in the iPhone 16e because "most people in the iPhone 16e's target audience exclusively charge their phones by plugging them into a charging cable." These users apparently tend not to use wireless... Read more ›

The iPhone SE (2025) iPhone 16e is the first Apple device to launch in 2025 and its arrival left us with several question marks. What’s up with the price hike?
