MediaTek announced it will launch the next-generation flagship chipset today, on 22 September 2025. So, what should you know about it?

Blogger @Kang revealed on Weibo today that the iPhone 17 Pro series actually originally had a black version. So, what should you know about it?

Previously, we shared how the vivo X200 series will reportedly be the first smartphone to feature the next-gen MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chipset. Now, more info about the SoC itself has been tipped, courtesy of reliable tipster Digital Chat Station on Weibo.

It seems that the alleged leaks of a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1-powered vivo NEX 5 is not a NEX Series smartphone after all as the company has officially said that the NEX Series will be discontinued and replaced with its X Series. The statement was made by Jia Jingdong, vivo’s brand vice president and general manager of brand and product strategy on Weibo earlier today.

Last month, the Lenovo Legion Phone dual was launched, and a few days ago, the company teased that 3 smartphones are going to launch soon. Today, there are 3 new teaser images shared on their Weibo page which revealed some parts of the design of these upcoming smartphones.

Based on a statement by DigitalChatStation on weibo, it seems that the upcoming Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset is expected to come equipped with a large core that’s capable of achieving up to 3.2GHz. While it may not perform as fast as the Qualcomm Snapdragon 875 chipset, our source did note that the SD875 will focus more on lowering power consumption.

Based on a statement by Digital Chat Station on weibo, it seems that OPPO could be the first to come equipped with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 chipset. While not much is known in regards to the release date, our source did mention that the aforementioned chipset will likely come with similar performance minus a few features as the flagship chipset.

We can't deny that foldable smartphones are attracting a lot of attention nowadays. Back then, if you told someone about the idea of it, they would probably laugh at you. Now, you can just simply get one from the market and they even come with different designs. Not just folding smartphones, it looks like the world's first laptop with a foldable display is going to arrive soon as well, and it is developed by Lenovo.

Yesterday night, realme posted a teaser photo on Weibo with a caption saying “the punch-hole will replace the pill-shaped front camera”. Furthermore, they also mentioned that the new upcoming smartphone series will support 5G connectivity.
