Asus ROG Phone 7 and 7 Pro photos reveal design

The ROG Phone 7 series by Asus is on its way, and the official launch is scheduled for April 13. Two weeks before the unveiling the phones appeared on the National Communications Commission of Taiwan's website. Two phones appeared, both of them with an appearance similar to the Phone 6 lineup - one with a small display on the back, likely the Pro, and another without it. Asus ROG Phone 7/7 Pro on NCC One of the battery cells was also certified with 3,000 mAh capacity, meaning the total should be 6,000 mAh with dual cells that allow for faster charging.

The vivo Y78+ will support 44W fast charging

A couple of weeks ago TENAA posted info showing that the vivo Y78+ (V2271A) will have a 5,000mAh battery, matching the capacity of the Y77. That model from a year ago supported only relatively slow charging, 18W, but thanks to the 3C we know that this year’s model is bringing an upgrade. The Y78+ will support 44W fast charging. That’s a pretty common power rating for vivos. The Y55, for example, could get its 5,000mAh battery to half full in 27 minutes, so we expect similar performance from the new Y-series model. So far what we know of the phone points to a triple camera on the...

IDC: Foldable shipments to reach 48.1 million units by 2027

The latest IDC report forecasts a healthy increase in the number of foldable shipments in the year to come with an estimated 48.1 million flip and fold devices making their ways to consumers in 2027.

vivo X Fold2 revealed in Red with three Zeiss cameras

It will also be thinner, according to early reports, but we cannot confirm this visually by looking at these angled images. The trio of cameras includes a...

Asus ROG Phone 7 flexes its Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 on AnTuTu

Lenovo discontinues Legion gaming phone lineup

We haven’t seen a new Lenovo Legion phone in a while – the Legion Y70 was announced back in August last year and it seems the reasoning behind the long hiatus is that Lenovo has discontinued its Legion gaming phone business.

vivo X Flip undergoes Google Play certification confirming its name

vivo's upcoming first entry into the flip-style foldable space has been in the news a lot lately, and today, thanks to it receiving its Google Play certification, the name has been confirmed. Surprising absolutely no one, the phone will be called vivo X Flip. It makes perfect sense in vivo's naming logic, since X Fold is its other line of foldables, and the X Flip will compete with Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip4 and Oppo's Find N2 Flip. Looks like if you want to escape the word "flip" in the name of such devices, you'll have to go with Motorola, as everyone else is being rather...

Weekly poll results: Galaxy A54 sparks interest, but reviews will decide its fate

Is the Galaxy A54 a worthy successor to the A52s? The phone was a bright spot in the series, while the A53 just wasn’t quite as good. Based on last week’s poll, the A54 has potential, but it is going to have to prove itself in reviews. The reason that the A52s was so well liked is its chipset, the Snapdragon 778G is powerful and efficient and was sitting greatly at its €450 price tag. The A53 had the Exynos 1280 and it managed to match its predecessor at 113h endurance, but it needed 500mAh extra in the battery to do so. And in terms of performance it wasn’t even close. Now the Samsung...
