Rumors about Apple testing a 200MP rear camera for the iPhone have been circulating for a while, with the first leak emerging in May last year. Now, a tipster suggests that the first iPhone to feature a 200MP sensor may not arrive until 2028. According to tipster Digital Chat Station, Apple is currently testing a 200MP periscope telephoto camera for the iPhone. However, Apple may still take a few years to bring the technology to market. This aligns with a recent Morgan Stanley investor note, which claims that an iPhone with a 200MP camera is unlikely to arrive before 2028. The...

Motorola is launching the Edge 70 Pro tomorrow, and it may be joined by the Edge 70 Pro+ and even the Edge 70 Pro Lite. We have no new information about the latter, but some renders showing the Edge 70 Pro and Edge 70 Pro+ have been outed today. Before you take a look, note that we don't know specifically which device we're looking at here. The X post that is the source of these implies that they show both models, and that may well be true - in that case, the differences between the Pro and Pro+ shouldn't be that many, if they look identical and are offered in the exact same...

Last month, we heard that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 will have a 4,300 mAh battery, the same as last year's Galaxy Z Flip7. A new rumor out of South Korea confirms it, while also shedding light on the Flip8's battery charging speed. The source claims that the Galaxy Z Flip8 won't get any charging speed upgrades either, meaning the smartphone will support 25W wired charging. That's not just the same as last year's Flip7, but also the Flip4 launched in 2022, as Samsung hasn't upgraded the charging speed on the Flip models since then. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8's leaked CAD-based render...

The 'vanilla' iPhone 18 has long been rumored to miss its traditional September launch window this year. It's instead said to land next spring at the same time as the iPhone 18e, leaving only the iPhone 18 Pro, iPhone 18 Pro Max, and the iPhone Fold (or is that iPhone Ultra?) to be unveiled at Apple's annual event in September. Now, a leaker from China claims that not only will the iPhone 18 launch alongside the iPhone 18e, but it will be more similar to the affordable model than you may expect. That's because Apple is allegedly going to cut some costs in the iPhone 18, we assume due to...

Google has now introduced new touch-up tools in the Google Photos image editor. These let you "apply subtle enhancements" that refine skin texture, remove blemishes, brighten eyes, or whiten teeth. To use the new tools, select a face in a photo and choose one of the options: heal, smooth, under eyes, irises, teeth, eyebrows, or lips. Once you've selected an effect, you can then adjust its intensity. These tools are currently rolling out globally in the Google Photos app for Android, for devices with at least 4GB of RAM that are running Android 9.0 and later. Source
