The Honor Pad X8 was announced in 2022, and now the Honor Pad X8b has quietly been launched in Saudi Arabia. We won't even try to make sense of the naming scheme and why, three and a half years after the X8, the X8b has arrived.
The new tablet has an 11-inch 1920x1200 IPS LCD screen with a 90Hz refresh rate, a 5MP rear camera, a 5MP front camera, and a 10,100 mAh battery. The Honor Pad X8b is powered by the Snapdragon 680 SoC, paired with 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. It runs Android 16 with MagicOS 10 on top, it's 7.25mm thin, and weighs 496g.

Huawei is gearing up to hold a major launch event later this month and we’ve now gotten our first look at one of the new wearables that’s set to make its debut.
The Huawei Band 11 Pro appeared inside the Huawei Smart Life app, giving us our first look at the device. We can see it will offer a refined look compared to the Band 10 with a curved screen and a metal casing with rounded corners.

Sony was an early entrant into the open wear stereo (OWS) earbuds market with its original LinkBuds back in 2022 and its latest addition takes a different stylistic approach. The LinkBuds Clip arrive on the scene with the trendy clip-on design alongside claims of refined audio quality and up to 37 hours of continuous usage between the bud and its case.
Let’s take a closer look at what comes with the LinkBuds Clip.
They are packaged in the typical recycled cardboard box that you get with all recent Sony headphones and earbuds. You’re greeted by the charging/carrying case, which...
Apple is obviously facing significant hurdles with the development of its own AI-powered Apple Intelligence and the upgraded virtual assistant Siri. The company first announced Apple Intelligence during WWDC 2024, but failed to deliver. On top of that, Mark Gurman reported that the upgraded Siri won't make it into the iOS 26.4 update later this year, due to issues that came out during internal testing.
However, that story was based on an internal report by one of Apple's employees. A company executive was asked about this by CNBC and the answer was simple yet reassuring: "Still on...
Sony has introduced a new color for its flagship wireless WH-1000XM6 headphones. Not to be confused with the recently launched WF-1000XM6, which are the in-ear model.
The WH-1000XM6 will now be available in Sand Pink. This is a very light, pastel shade of pink that really challenges the notion of what pink really is. You get the same soft-touch matte texture all over with a fine speckled finish when viewed up close. Completing the look are rose gold highlights around the hinges.
The Sand Pink is the fourth color option for these headphones, which were previously...
Samsung's Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 are now listed in the Google Play Console, a sure sign that their official launch is very near.

The phone will run Android 16 out of the box, unsurprisingly. Here it is in the official image revealed by the listing.
The Galaxy A57 is powered by the Exynos 1680 SoC, paired with 8GB of RAM in one version. This one runs Android 16 too. A past Geekbench run revealed that it would have a 12GB...
Apple’s new affordable iPhone is rumored to launch later this month, with one leak pointing to a February 19 announcement. While nothing has been confirmed, YouTuber Jon Prosser has shared what appears to be the first look at the upcoming iPhone 17e.
The video shared by the YouTuber showcases the iPhone 17e with a Dynamic Island and MagSafe charging support.
However, most recent leaks and reports have suggested that Apple won’t be including the Dynamic Island on the upcoming iPhone. Instead, it’s likely to stick to the notch present on the iPhone 16e.
In terms of design, the...
Chinese smartphone makers' obsession with Apple and 'emulating' the Cupertino company's designs shows no sign of stopping. Today a new render leaked in China, purportedly showing us the Xiaomi 18, which is only due to be unveiled in September.
There's still a very long time to go until then, which is why you should take this with a grain of salt, but anyway, here it is: the iPhone 16 Pro in all its glory. Sorry, we meant the Xiaomi 18. Take a look:
The comparison with Apple's device from 2024 is pretty much inevitable. The design of the camera island is very close, even though...
