For another week, the Nothing (1) phone is dominating our news section, but this time everyone was eager to see what our reviewers had to say since the phone went official last week.
We finally got the first official press renders of the next Samsung leaflets: the Galaxy Z Flip4 and Z Fold4. In other not-so-great Samsung news, the company would have decided to drop the Galaxy S22 FE release in favor of manufacturing more Galaxy S22 Ultra units.
Xiaomi revealed the Redmi K50i 5G in China with Dimensity 8100 SoC and 144Hz LCD panel. Nubia made headlines with its Z40S Pro smartphone featuring the latest Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 chip.
Two other phones have seen the light of day this week and this is the iQOO 10 and 10 Pro, both with SD 8+ Gen 1 with the latter boasting 200W fast charging.
And finally WhatsApp has brought support for cross-platform chat history transfer between iOS and Android. A long-awaited feature for years is finally available.
Check out this week’s full list of popular news below.
