Weeks after its debut in China, the world’s first phone with 240W charging is ready to get on the global stage. The Realme GT3 will be available in multiple markets and will spread the joy of getting a full charge in under 10 minutes wherever it goes. As suspected, this is the global version of the Realme GT Neo 5 240W. This moves the hardware into a more premium category (the Neos are typically mid-rangers), but the pricing remains well below flagship levels – the Realme GT3 will have a starting price of $650 for an 8/128GB model. This will make it one of the cheapest Snapdragon 8+...

This is Tecno's first foldable - the Phantom V Fold. Right off the bat, this is a big folding phone. At 299g, it's nearly the biggest. It can justify that heft with at least three good reasons - display, even bigger display, and battery. Tecno Phantom V Fold When closed, you'll use the Tecno Phantom V Fold's cover display, which is a regularly wide 6.42-inch LTPO AMOLED of 1080x2550px resolution. It caps off at 120Hz. Open the Phantom V Fold up, and you're greeted by a bigger 7.85-inch 2000x2296px folding screen, this one also a 120Hz LTPO panel. It's quite a bit...

Now, Qualcomm and Thales announced the first commercially deployable iSIM on a modified version of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset at MWC 2023.

So, you saw Honor Magic4’s awesome cameras but wished the company made a smaller flagship this year? Wish granted! Although you really should have been more specific with your wish – the Honor Magic5 is smaller but only just. Last year’s Magic4 was almost exactly the same size as its Pro sibling. This year the Magic5 has a screen that’s 0.08” smaller and the phone itself is shorter, narrower and thinner by about a millimeter. So, while it’s technically smaller, it’s hard to quantify the difference even when you have both the vanilla and the Pro phones in your hand. One thing you will...

Samsung introduced the Galaxy A14 5G earlier last month, which comes with Exynos 1330 or Dimensity 700 SoC depending on the market. Now the company has unveiled its 4G version, which looks similar to the Galaxy A14 5G but packs different hardware. For starters, the Samsung Galaxy A14 4G is expectedly powered by a different chip. Samsung hasn't mentioned the name on its official website, but it could be the Helio G80 SoC. The screen refresh rate has also come down from 90Hz to 60Hz. While the Samsung Galaxy A14 4G sports a 13MP selfie camera like its 5G counterpart, its triple camera...

Most smartphone technologies advance at a rapid pace – chipsets, displays, cameras and so on. All except battery capacity, which increases at a snail’s pace. Honor thinks it has found a solution – the industry’s first silicon-carbon battery. It promises 12.8% higher energy density compared to current lithium batteries that use graphite for one of the electrodes (the anode). To put that in more concrete terms, the Honor Magic5 Pro has a standard 5,100mAh battery. If it used a silicon-carbon battery instead, it would have had 5,450mAh capacity. CEO George Zhao was brief on stage, but...

OnePlus is expected to announce a new Ace smartphone, and rumors suggested it would be called OnePlus Ace 2 Dimensity 9000. Leaked images revealed the phone will not be visually similar to the Ace 2, and now we have confirmation on the name, which is a lot easier to remember - OnePlus Ace 2V. The President of OnePlus China, Louis Li, posted an image on their Weibo account, revealing the new phone will have an alert slider on the top right side, way above the power key that sits in the middle, while the volume rocker is on the left-hand side. The post does not explicitly confirm the...

Xiaomi has a pretty big presence at this year’s MWC conference and on top of the global launch for the Xiaomi 13 series phones we also got a showcase for a pair of augmented reality (AR) glasses.

Xiaomi’s AR glasses don’t have any built-in storage so they need to be connected to a host device to work. Xiaomi Wireless AR Glass The glasses feature two Micro OLED screens...

The TCL 40 X series was introduced at MWC 2023 with an accent on cost-saving while providing important features like a big battery and 5G (limited to some devices). We are in Barcelona and got a hold of three of the new phones - TCL 40 X, TCL 40 XE, and TCL 40 XL, which are all meant for the US market. The first two have 5G connectivity, but in order to keep the price low, TCL kept the RAM and storage down to 4/64 GB. The third lacks 5G but compensates with a bigger screen and more storage. Here’s what impressed us in each device. TCL 40 X This is the most intriguing of the three,...

In addition to the TCL 40 X, XE and XL, the company also unveiled an affordable model, cheaper than the TCL 408 from CES, though above the 403 and 405. The company also showed off noise canceling TWS buds and portable 5G Wi-Fi hotspots. TCL 406 The TCL 406 costs $120, $10 less than the 408. Where does the saving come from? The camera – the new model has a 13MP sensor, down from 50MP. It still runs full Android and it even comes with the newer 13 version out of the box. Other than that, the two phones are quite similar. They have 6.6” HD+ displays, stereo speakers and 5,000mAh...

This is matched with an optional stylus supports stylus that can detect 4,096 different levels of pressure. The NXTPAPER 2.0 tech is much...

TCL unveiled a trio of affordable phones for the European and Asian markets at CES earlier this year, the TCL 40 SE, the 408 and the 403. All three are 4G-only models that focus on keeping costs low. Now at the MWC the company is unveiling more phones in the 40 series, some of which have 5G and all of which are affordable with prices of $200 and below. The new additions include TCL’s cheapest 5G phone to date ($170). TCL 40 X 5G This one isn’t it – at $200, the TCL 40 X 5G costs slightly more, but it also delivers better camera hardware.

We just got our hands on the Motorola Moto G53, so let's do an unboxing. The Moto G53 comes in a simple box with a 10W charger and a USB cable - great for the environment. You would have to buy a case if you're the clumsy type, though. The Motorola Moto G53 is a capable phone. It packs an 8nm Snapdragon 480+ chipset, which enables 5G - a key upgrade over the Moto G52. But in terms of performance the SoC is a notch below the 6nm Snapdragon 680 of the G52. The comparison continues to be unfavorable for the successor elsewhere too. The display is a step down from the G52 - now a...

A battery replacement of the Nokia G22 takes around 5 minutes and all the tools you...

And a few days ago, we saw the vanilla iPhone 15 with Dynamic Island. Now, we are looking at the CAD renders of the Plus model, which too features Dynamic Island.

Like the vanilla and Pro models, the Apple iPhone 15 Plus has a new body design with slightly rounded edges and a USB-C port replacing...

The biggest change will be a switch from LCD to OLED, and according to Korean sources, Cupertino will place the orders for the panels with Samsung and LG.

You will be able to send a text to any cellphone user....
