OnePlus (and its parent Oppo) were embroiled in a very protracted patent dispute with Nokia in the past, which at one point saw OnePlus and Oppo devices banned from sale in Germany (and this only ended a few months ago), and now unfortunately history repeats itself.

AI is the buzzword of the year for sure, and it's also something a lot of smartphone makers (hi, Apple) are trying to gatekeep, only making it available on their latest devices. Samsung is kind of playing the same game too, it seems, but far less egregiously. Still, it's worth noting that the update to One UI 6.1.1 which brought new AI features to newer foldables is now rolling out... Read more ›

The Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is an interesting case – Samsung chose an in-house chip, but not the same that is found in Galaxy S24 and S24+ phones in some parts of the world.
