News & Reviews:   tipster

Previously, we reported that Apple may finally introduce an always-on display feature in its iPhones, starting with the Apple iPhone 14 Pro series. Well, today, another source is backing up the claim, this time by reliable Apple insider and tipster, Mark Gurman.

After launching the OPPO Find N near the end of last year, the Chinese company is now planning to launch another foldable device. The upcoming one is said to be a clamshell foldable smartphone and won't hurt your wallet that much compared to other foldable devices.

Someone has shared the product launch roadmap of OnePlus, giving us an overall look at the devices that the company will present this year. According to it, there will be a total of six OnePlus smartphones coming in 2022, and we're quite close to the launch of a few of them too. 

The OnePlus 10 series might not be the only flagship devices that the company launches this year. According to new information, OnePlus could introduce an "ultra flagship" in the second half of 2022.

It's almost the end of the year, and it seems like there's nothing much exciting left for the smartphone industry, except the new Qualcomm 4nm chip and the first smartphone to use it, Xiaomi 12. However, this latest information might bring a plot twist to the story. According to it, HUAWEI and OPPO are each dropping a foldable device by the end of 2021. 

It looks like HONOR is ready to enter the foldable market after so many rumours. According to tipster Changan Digital King from Weibo, the Chinese brand will be launching two foldable smartphones in the first quarter of 2022.

We have lost count of how many times we saw the news mentioning when the new Apple AirPods Pro would launch but didn't. This time, it might be more accurate as a tipster named FronTron has gotten the information directly from a credible source. According to them, the AirPods Pro 2 will indeed launch in Q3 2022.

It looks like there will be another smartphone sub-brand becoming independent soon. According to the latest report, iQOO will no longer be attached to vivo and become a standalone brand in the first half of 2022.

After launching the trio Xperia 1 III, Xperia 5 III, and Xperia 10 III, it is rumoured that Sony will be presenting another surprise device this year. It is suggested to be a successor of the Xperia Z Ultra, which is a very old device launched in 2013.

The first Apple event of 2021 is said to be held on 23 March and it looks like it's not going to happen now. According to the latest report, the event has been postponed to April. It is also worth mentioning that the news came from the same tipster who got the date wrong twice, so should we still trust him?
