[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Motorola's next high-end Razr foldable smartphone has been caught in the Geekbench database today, since a prototype ran the benchmark. The device identified itself as the Motorola Razr Ultra 2025, which is an interesting name since the company hasn't used that particular nomenclature before. Globally, we were expecting to see the Razr 60 Ultra, as the successor to the Razr 50 Ultra from last year, and in North America this should be the Razr+ 2025. But maybe Motorola is ready to slightly revamp its naming scheme and go with Razr Ultra 2025 across the world - we can hope, at least. Anyway,...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Samsung teased the Galaxy S25 Edge at its first Unpacked event for the year, highlighting its slim design. Now leakster Ice Universe confirms that the Edge will weigh less than the Galaxy S25, which is 162 grams. Max Jambor, another reliable source for leaks, adds that the phone is set to launch in Q2. This aligns with previously reported April timeframe. The last time Samsung introduced such a lightweight flagship was more than six years ago with the Galaxy S10, which weighed only 157 grams. Smartphones have become way heavier since, and it's now uncommon for even mid-range models...

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] Samsung is considering enhancing the battery capacity of the Galaxy S26 by altering the battery technology. FNNews suggested that the Korean company may adopt a Silicon-Carbon solution, potentially enabling the phones to achieve a capacity of up to 7,000 mAh. The new battery technology replaces graphite with silicon in the cathode material, enhancing capacity. Initially, these batteries had higher production costs and insufficient yields, however, with brands like Xiaomi, vivo, and OnePlus launching flagships featuring this tech, Samsung is finally ready to hop on board.

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...] A few days ago a Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 was spotted in the Geekbench database, and we had high hopes that maybe the company would unify its naming schemes across the globe, but those hopes have been shattered by a new leak today, which calls the device Razr+ 2025 (for the North American Market) / Razr 60 Ultra (for all other markets). Naming shenanigans aside, what we have here are the first leaked renders of the upcoming foldable smartphone, which, according to Geekbench, will finally use a proper flagship Qualcomm chipset (not the "s" version like last year). Motorola Razr+...

The company has just announced this seemingly out of nowhere - last we heard anything about the OnePlus Watch 3, it was allegedly launching internationally alongside the OnePlus 13 and OnePlus 13R in January.
