So the brand has decided to mildly troll its competitor with the post on X which is embedded below.Samsung's teasers for the Galaxy S26 family have made a big deal of how its new devices aren't smartphones, but AI phones.

The Honor Magic V6 is now official, so let's do an unboxing. Ours is the Red model, and it ships with a USB cable and a color-matching red-and-gold case.The Magic V6 supports faster 80W wired and 66W wireless charging to the Magic V5's 66W/50W, but you'd need to buy the needed charger.The rear of the case tries to emulate the suede-like finish of the phone's rear panel, but it's nowhere as nice to the touch. It does, however, have the same color-changing qualities as the phone itself - the red changes its contrast under different angles.The case also has a clever kickstand...

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 series may be named after the year 2026, but the three models feel like they are from different times. The Ultra once again gets the best new features, the vanilla model gets few but important upgrades, while the Plus model, well, there isn’t much to say about that one.The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra boasts a new Privacy Display feature. Compared to the S25 Ultra, it also has wider apertures on its 200MP main (f/1.4 instead of f/1.7) and 5x 50MP telephoto module (f/2.9 instead of f/3.4).

Last week, we asked our readers whether they had any interest in buying a Pixel 10a – the answer is a resounding “no”. The majority of voters think there are better mid-rangers on the market. The best thing that we can say based on these results is that around a third of voters think that the 10a isn’t a bad phone, it’s just overpriced. Which is bad.Jokes aside, there was a similar attitude in the 9a poll a year earlier, but people warmed up to the 9a over time – or rather as the price cuts came in. So, maybe there is hope for the new model.One good reason to jump on the Google Pixel...

Xiaomi's latest Wear OS smartwatch is here, and it means serious business. Meet the Xiaomi Watch 5, a no-compromises smartwatch with a massive battery. Before we go through the numbers, let's do an unboxing.The Watch 5 ships with Xiaomi's typical two-pin magnetic charger. We're not fans of it. First, it ends on a USB-A connection, not a USB-C, which isn't ideal in early 2026. Second, the two-pin design means you need to fiddle when placing the watch down to charge. It'd be much easier if Xiaomi went with a universal magnetic design, like Samsung and OnePlus.Charger aside, the...
