 Remember when smartphones came with chargers, cables, and even earphones in the box? These good days are long gone, and the retail box for your new smartphone has gotten a lot emptier. But things might be getting even worse soon. A new rumor suggests that USB cables might be the next casualty. So here’s what you need to know. |  HMD launched the Pulse Pro back in April last year and is now working on its successor, the Pulse 2 Pro. A new leak has revealed key specifications of the phone, including its battery and chipset, along with a render that shows an interesting redesign — the camera module appears inspired by Apple’s iPhone 17 lineup. |
 Edifier has introduced the Huazai New Cyber Bluetooth speaker in China. The Huazai New Cyber is positioned as a desktop speaker system that combines audio performance with interactive display features. The unit features a two-section structure. The lower section handles audio output, while the upper section includes a transparent, three-sided casing that exposes components such as the power management unit, signal processor, and decorative ambient lighting. |  Samsung has announced the ISOCELL HP5, a new 200MP (16,384 x 12,288) image sensor featuring the world’s smallest pixel size at just 0.5µm. The sensor is now in mass production and is expected to appear in upcoming flagship smartphones, including the Oppo Find X9 Pro. The ISOCELL HP5 is designed to improve image quality despite the reduced pixel size. |
