Last week we got the first clue that the vivo V30 Pro is close to launch, a certification by the Bluetooth SIG. Now the phone has surfaced in the Geekbench database, flexing its Dimensity 8200 muscles. At least this appears to be the chipset in question. The V30 Pro was said to be based on the vivo S18 Pro, though that one came with the more powerful Dimensity 9200+ (and... Read more ›

The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra extends its golden run, ending up as the most popular device in our database for the sixth week in a row.

Welcome to your week 6 recap. OnePlus defended its policy of giving its users 5 years of software updates (4 years of major OS updates, and 5 years of security support) over the 7 years of Samsung and Google.

It was clear as far back as 2017 that metal is the preferred material for a phone body. But which metal? Aluminum is the default, Apple used stainless steel for a few years before switching to titanium and Samsung followed that move too. Each has its advantages. Aluminum is cheap and light.

If you compare the Realme 12 Pro and 12 Pro+, you will see only a few differences – however, the results from last week’s poll shows that these two phones couldn’t be more different. Neither of them is shaping up to be a hot seller, but the plus model is certainly the winner here. Let’s start with the Realme 12 Pro as this will be short. Only 1 in 10... Read more ›

Samsung never fell in the “modular phone” trap that companies like Motorola, Google and LG went into. However, the company did experiment with ways to add functionality through cases – things like the Lens Cover that we looked at a few weeks ago. Now we want to look at a different cover from the same period – the Keyboard Cover for the Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+ and Galaxy Note5 from... Read more ›

Android Police dug out an interesting string of code suggesting a new feature is coming to Google Pixel phones, called Adaptive Touch Sensitivity. Judging by the code itself, it may enable future and current Pixel phones to adjust the display's touch sensitivity depending on environmental factors, activity or whether or not a screen protector is applied. In fact, the Pixel 8 series can already detect a screen protector and once... Read more ›

Foldables are now attainable, if not quite cheap. The Motorola Razr 40 Ultra is down to €800, its lowest price yet. It combines a Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 with a 6.9” FHD+ 165Hz LTPO OLED internal display and a usable 3.6” cover display (144Hz, both 10-bit). The 12+13MP camera leaves something to be desired, but the 3,800mAh battery offers both 30W wired charging and some wireless (only 5W but still).... Read more ›
