Realme already announced that it's unveiling the Neo8 this month, showcased its rear design, and revealed that the phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 SoC.
Now the Neo8 may have been spotted in the Geekbench online database with the model number RMX8899. As you can see below, it managed a single-core score of 2,876 and a multi-core score of 9,245 in Geekbench 6.5, though as usual we'd caution you against taking benchmark results from unreleased devices too seriously.
The benchmark listing has confirmed the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 chipset, and revealed that one version will come...
Built-in active cooling fans are all the rage in China currently, with a lot of manufacturers coming out with devices featuring one. And now it seems like Xiaomi is working on its very own device with a fan, according to Digital Chat Station on Weibo.
This device will be powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 9500 SoC, and will have a screen with a "1.5K" resolution and "ultra-high" (though not further detailed) refresh rate. The fan will be part of the camera island, and the entire phone will be IP68 rated for dust and water resistance despite the presence of the fan.

It certainly took a while, but the latest version of AnTuTu is now finally available on iOS. You can grab it from the App Store. As you may already know, AnTuTu is probably the most popular benchmarking app in China, so much so that Chinese smartphone makers routinely use AnTuTu scores as teasers ahead of new product launches, and some have even compared scores against the competition during launch events. So, suffice to say, it's pretty big over there.
AnTuTu 11 on iOS
It's a benchmark that covers everything, unlike others that can focus only on the CPU or GPU or AI...
Huawei introduced the FreeClip 2 last month, and they come in as the follow-up to the original FreeClip from 2023.

The case is 17% narrower and 14% lighter at...
When the AI revolution began, many were expecting Samsung to upgrade its assistant Bixby with an AI brain, but that didn't come with the last couple of One UI upgrades. Now, a Reddit user shared some screenshots from their rooted device, running One UI 8.5 and showing off a brand new, smarter Bixby.
Bixby with AI
The screenshots show that Bixby leverages Perplexity AI for most of its tasks, suggesting the earlier rumors about Samsung partnering with Perplexity were accurate. But Bixby integration doesn't stop there. It will also work with The Weather Channel, HERE Maps,...

vivo is working on the V70 FE, which has just been certified in Indonesia by SDPPI. This has the model number V2550. Alongside it, the iQOO Z11x 5G (with the model number I2507) and iQOO 15R (with the model number I2508) have also been certified by SDPPI. These certifications don't reveal any specs, but they do confirm the devices' names.
The iQOO 15R is quite intriguing, since we're obviously thinking whether it's iQOO's direct response to the OnePlus 15R. Only time will tell, of course. The vivo V70 FE has already been rumored to be coming soon, while the iQOO Z11x will be the...
The Reno15 series marks Oppo’s first major release on the global stage in 2026, and we managed to get hold of the smallest member in the lineup - the Reno15 Pro Mini, which is also known as the Reno15 Pro in some markets.

Oppo went with the tried and tested glass back and flat aluminum frame design, but it continued its glass etching experiments by incorporating a glittering ribbon design on the back. Oppo extended the glittery...
