If you haven't seen it, it's a fun dexterity-based Curling game, with magic! We had two great ideas for new games this year, and we want to make them both. They'll be printing at the same time at the factory. If you're also a Mystic Curling Club backer, we'll ship both together to you with a discount (shipping one larger box is cheaper than shipping two small boxes!).

Teaser confirms that the Realme 16 Pro will have a periscope, a Snapdragon chip and a big battery

10 December 2025 @ 7:12 pm

The official launch date for the Realme 16 Pro series is still “coming soon”, but the company is ramping up the teasers. The Realme India store already has a landing page for the upcoming phone, which reveals quite a few details. For starters, it confirms the periscope rumors – this teaser shows 1x, 3.5x and 10x magnification. If we had to guess, that’s 3.5x optical zoom and 10x digital.

iQOO 12 finally gets stable OriginOS 6 update based on Android 16

10 December 2025 @ 6:01 pm

When vivo and iQOO announced that OriginOS 6 based on Android 16 will be launched globally, ending the OriginOS / FuntouchOS divide, the brands also revealed a rollout timeline for existing devices. That, however, was misleading. For example, the iQOO 12 from 2023 was slated to get the OriginOS 6 update in mid-November. And it did in fact arrive then, but it wasn't the stable build - instead, it was a public beta which you could opt into from the phone's Settings. iQOO 12 running OriginOS 6 based on Android 16 Today the rollout of the stable version for international iQOO 12...

Report: Samsung Galaxy S26 to reuse Galaxy S25’s cameras

10 December 2025 @ 9:29 am

Samsung has kept a consistent approach to cameras on its baseline Galaxy S-series model for a few years. The Galaxy S25 arrived in January with the same triple camera setup as the Galaxy S24, which itself was rocking identical camera hardware to the Galaxy S23. A new report from South Korea’s The Elec suggests that the upcoming Galaxy S26 is expected to reuse the same camera modules as the ones used in its Galaxy S25. This means a 50MP main (1/1.56”), a 10MP telephoto (1/3.94") with 3x optical zoom, and a 12MP ultrawide (1/2.55"). But that was not the initial plan. The same report claims...
