  • Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro+ vs. Redmi Note 13 Pro

    The dilemma between the Xiaomi Redmi Note 13 Pro+ and the non-plus Pro from the same family is likely a common one. Not only do these devices offer similar hardware, but the price gap isn't huge either. When it comes to software and overall user experience, it's hard to tell the difference. But the 13 Pro+ sits above the Pro with a more flagship-like design (curved front and back panels), better build and snappier hardware. On the other hand, the 13 Pro and 13 Pro+ are more alike than not -...

  • Amazfit Helio Ring pricing and US release date officially announced

    Back in January at CES, Amazfit unveiled the Helio Ring, a wearable that's apparently aimed at athletes and is said to work best with an Amazfit smartwatch - that's an interesting proposition, seeing as how most people would probably look at a smart ring as a replacement for a smartwatch. The Helio Ring is now almost ready to finally become available in the US. It will go on sale on May 15 for $299.99, and will also be offered as part of a bundle with either the Amazfit Cheetah Pro or the...

  • HTC U24 Pro surfaces in the Google Play Console, coming soon

    Few people think about HTC anymore, but it was one of the original Android smartphone makers, and it's still around - if barely. Last year in May, it launched the U23 Pro, and it looks like it's now readying a successor for that device, which will most likely end up being called U24 Pro (as the number in these names seems to indicate the year of release a la Samsung's S series recently). The HTC U24 Pro has been listed in the Google Play Console, a move which usually signifies an official...

  • Xiaomi 14 SE is allegedly coming to India in June
