Thank you very much for taking part in our user & contributor survey. We received 228 submissions. Let's dive straight into the data.
This survey got over 200 responses and considering only a fraction of people who actually see the survey will respond, there are probably quite a lot of happy Cordova users and new and long-running app projects out there. We got some good feedback of the most requested improvements and biggest pain points.
Usage
Obviously almost all respondents work with Cordova and the most used platforms are Android (97.4%), iOS (89%), Browser (21.1%) and Electron (7%). Windows and macOS Catalyst got only a handful of responses in total.

Xiaomi juggles many product lines, but the T-series is special – it still carries some of that “flagship killer” spirit. This year the Xiaomi 14T series builds on the successful formula of the 13T phones from last year mostly with small but worthwhile upgrades.
The new models upgrade to the next chipsets down the line. For the Xiaomi 14T Pro, this means that a Dimensity 9300+ replaces the 9200+, which results in a notable performance increase in most benchmarks and a modest bump in some. Xiaomi could have done more with the cooling, though. On the plus side, the jump to faster...
Tecno officially launched the Spark 30 lineup with two phones, vanilla and Pro, joining the Spark 30C from early September. The Spark 30 has a black and yellow Bumblebee variant, while we now present you the Spark 30 Pro in Optimus Prime colors – Red, Blue, and Silver.
The phone comes with an adapter, charging cable, and wired earphones, which is a decent retail package, but here go our impressions of its performance once taken out of the box.
The Spark 30 series is for budget-conscious users who still want some excitement, nay, spark, from their phones. The Pro version packs a...
While flagships tend to get the most attention in our weekly deals, there are plenty of options in the budget market too. These are our top picks from Amazon UK.
Honor’s X6b is currently down to just under £90. For that price, you’re getting a 6.56-inch 90Hz LCD, 50MP main cam and a 5,200 mAh battery with 35W charging. The phone also boots Honor’s MagicUI 8.0 based on Android 14.

The results are in from last week’s poll and they are not encouraging – most voters believe that the Samsung Galaxy S24 FE is overpriced. How come?
Well, part of the problem is that the phone comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB storage as standard. While you can’t have more RAM, you could get 256GB storage. But since 128GB is pretty tight these days, people are looking at the 256GB price tag, not the 128GB one. That makes the FE feel expensive, especially when compared to mid-rangers from other brands, which start at 8/256GB or even 12/256GB.
It’s not just other brands too, with a bit...
The Honor Magic V3 foldable has been out and about for some time now, in China at least, but during this year's IFA in Berlin, the company promised to bring the device to the global market as well. And India is getting the V3 very soon.
In an interview with Times Network, the HTech CEO Madhav Sheth revealed that the Honor Magic V3 would debut by the end of this year in India, and its predecessor, the Magic V2, will tag along.
He also said that the Magic V2 will go for less than INR 100,000, while the V3 will cost more than that. Currently, the Tecno Phantom V Fold is the cheapest...
Google is reportedly pushing a feature update to some Android phones, adding anti-theft functionalities such as Theft Detection Lock, Offline Device Lock and Remote Lock. The latter isn't exactly new, and many Android users already have it. However, the Theft Detection Lock and Offline Device Lock are brand new functionalities announced back in May and increase data security.
Anti-theft features
The Theft Detection Lock is the fanciest of them all. It leverages AI and the device's sensors to detect common motions associated with theft. For instance, if someone pulls the phone out...
Samsung released just two flagship tablets this year - the nearly 15-inch Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra and this 12.4-inch Galaxy Tab S10+. You no longer get an 11-inch option, which few people purchased anyway.
The Galaxy Tab S10+ is much smaller and more portable than the Tab S10 Ultra. It's also cheaper, naturally, but doesn't compromise on display quality or processing power. You get the same 120Hz Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel with an anti-reflective coating upfront.
Inside is the 4nm MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ with four Cortex-X4 prime cores (one at 3.4GHz and three at 2.85GHz). Expect an 18%...
A new massive leak surfaced online, showcasing the Oppo Find X8 in real-life photos along with pretty much all the specs. The live images of the device don't reveal anything new - circular camera island on the back, extremely thin bezels on the front and flat frame design all-around.
Oppo Find X8 live images
The leaked spec sheet, however, gives us some missing pieces of the puzzle. The vanilla Oppo Find X8 will feature a 6.5-inch BOE-made OLED panel and will run on a still-unannounced Dimensity 9400 SoC.
The camera configuration on the back will consist of three 50MP cameras...
With the diminishing iPhone Plus sales over the years, Apple is looking to substitute the Plus lineup with something more exciting. Or that's at least according to the rumors this year. Enter the iPhone 17 Slim, a new iPhone lineup, rumored to be even more expensive than the Pro Max series.
New information coming from DigiTimes suggests the upcoming iPhone 17 Slim will feature a new kind of OLED display that could allow an extremely thin build. A lesser-known Taiwanese brand, Novatek, recently introduced a new TDDI OLED panel that combines the touch sensor layer and the display driver...
During this year's Samsung Developer Conference, the company announced its upcoming One UI 7 based on Android 15. Arguably, this is the most interesting bit of the whole keynote. Still, there are other developments with Samsung products, like Tizen OS, for example.
As a quick reminder, One UI 7 will arrive in early 2025, while a beta version of the software will be seeded to users by the end of this year. The new OS will feature a UI redesign, more customization options and deeper AI integration that will be more contextual—depending on location, surroundings, etc.
Speaking of AI,...
