MIUI 12 officially announced in late April alongside the Mi 10 Youth smartphone. It was initially introduced to the Chinese audience, but now Xiaomi has scheduled a global launch which will take place on May 19. The date was revealed by the Twitter account of MIUI with a cheeky teaser - there was a math problem that is apparently still trending around the marketing office of Xiaomi. The answer is obviously 19, even if Xiaomi has decided to use two different pictures for the very same number, which is a common mistake third-grade students make in math class. The date might be...

After a lengthy teaser campaign, Meizu finally unveiled its latest flagships with the Meizu 17 and 17 Pro.

CEO Madhav Sheth officially confirmed that the Realme X3 SuperZoom is coming - and that it will have a 60x zoom camera. He shared a photo of the Milky Way taken with the phone's Starry Mode and challenges you to try and get a better shot with your current phone. So, this is clearly a periscope camera that we're talking about, likely with 6x optical zoom. Of course, the 60x magnification is achieved with digital processing, but astro-photography relies on a lot of computational skills anyway (astronomers have been doing image stacking for years before phones started doing it).

A few days ago China sent a survey team to study Mt. Everest, today they reached the Advanced Base Camp at 6,500m (21,300ft). What's interesting about this expedition (besides the scientific work that it will do) is that two photographers, Li Pu and Cai Qing, used two Honor phones to capture some beautiful shots. One of these was the Honor X10 5G, which hasn't been officially announced yet (so these are the first official camera samples from the phone). The five shots have 10MP resolution, since pixel binning was used - the X10 will feature a custom Sony IMX600ysensor with 40MP raw...

It may have looked like a typo, but one leakster on Weibo revealed this is an actual platform by Qualcomm that will be unveiled with the new Redmi phone. While there were no specs in the initial leak, later a tweet revealed the internals of the SoC.

The Redmi 9 just popped up on Xiaomi's global RF certification page, confirming that the phone exists and its model number - M2004J19G. This number was also spotted in a batch of devices that were recently certified by the 3C. These certifications don't reveal much. A related model, the M2004J19C, is listed at the 3C with a 10W charger, though that would be a weird downgrade - both the Redmi 8 and the cheaper 8A support 18W charging. Anyway, these will be 4G phones, which probably comes as no surprise. Previous leaks showed a photo of the quad camera on the back of the phone, which...

Back in March, vivo introduced its S6 5G, a midrange 5G phone with a 6.44-inch AMOLED display, quad cameras and the Exynos 980 chipset at the helm.

Merely hours later, a mysterious vivo phone, bearing the model number V1986A, has popped-up on the 3C certification authority website. Putting two and two together, this is likely the iQOO Z1, which appears to be heading towards and imminent release. The document confirms 5G support on the phone, as well...

All of them seem to have the exact same dimensions of 163.8 x 75.8 x 8.9mm, which, coincidentally, or rather not, match-up perfectly with the existing Realme X50m 5G. Same goes for the reported weight of the RMX2142 and the...
