Read on for all the details!

OnePlus has officially unveiled the OnePlus Pad in China. This budget-friendly tablet starts at an introductory price of 1999 yuan (approximately $274).

Unlike last year’s global version powered by the MediaTek Dimensity 9000 chipset, this model offers a new configuration. Early buyers will also receive a complimentary stylus.

Here’s a closer look at its features, specifications, and pricing.

While brands like Xiaomi, Oppo, and Vivo often dominate headlines, the Chinese smartphone market is a hotbed of innovation, with several manufacturers producing compelling flagship devices that often fly under the radar.

These “underrated” flagships offer impressive specifications, unique features, and competitive pricing.

Samsung plans to release a new smart wearable gadget soon. Back in July 2024, the highly anticipated Galaxy Ring was finally launched in the global market.

Now, its successor was spotted online as well. The brand might be gearing up for an imminent launch for the Galaxy Ring 2.

Recent reports highlight an unexpected limitation for the Galaxy S25 series. While the phones will support the latest Qi2 magnetic wireless charging standard, users may need to purchase an official magnetic case to unlock its full capabilities.

The Qi2 standard, confirmed by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC), allows devices to achieve better alignment and efficiency during wireless charging.

Tablets have become essential tools for work, play, and creativity. In the tablet market, Apple is one of the market leaders, offering great performance and features packed in a premium body.

Despite stiff competition from the ever-improving Android tablets, Apple’s iPad consistently dominates the tablet market. So here are a few reasons why iPad tablets are simply superior.
