I've been using the Xiaomi 17 Ultra for the past three weeks, and I love Ultra phones that actually do justice to the "Ultra" name. It is incredibly refreshing to handle a phone that feels like a true R&D milestone rather than a lazy corporate refresh (you know what phone I am talking about).

The iPhone 17e is a phone with flagship brains in a mid-range body. In a landscape of global volatility and AI anxiety, it could have been the MacBook Neo’s perfect pocket companion. But Apple is still holding back one critical upgrade that keeps the competition alive. #iPhone17e

Ooohhh this is a pretty interesting charger from Stuffcool www.fonearena.com/blog/471087/... I've been using the Stuffcool 65W Napoleon charger for idk how long, and it's my handy trusted charger for charging everything. Might get the Nomad Pro for travel so I can skip multiplugs.

Still learning my way around a proper camera, but it's a definite upgrade from the product shots I used to take from phones Shot on Sony A6700 + Sigma 18-50mm f/2.8

Thank you for the Diwali wishes, Tecno India! Happy Diwali!

Thank you @asusrog.bsky.social for the Diwali wishes! Happy Diwali!

Bought these in the sale season from Amazon: 1. OnePlus Nord 5: Upgrading my dad from the Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G. Chose this as I don't have confidence on green line issues on the rest. Will also be upgrading mom on the next sale. 2. TP-Link BE3600 Wi-Fi 7 router: Also overdue a router upgrade.

Some more product shots for the iPhone Air and iPhone 17 Pro, with Apple BKC in the background. Love how they turned out!

Mumbai's cloudy weather became the perfect backdrop for the iPhone 17 series. Love the family photo, it came out so clean! iPhone Air first impressions in the comments

Should you buy the Pixel 10 series in India? Short answer: No Long answer: Noooooooo

OnePlus 13s, launching on June 5

What's happening with the Pixel A-series? This is the third report of the Pixel 6a catching fire. This comes after Pixel 4a's battery update/overheating risk, Pixel 7a's swollen battery, Pixel 9a's mandatory battery health update www.androidauthority.com/google-pixel...

Battery failures return to haunt Google's Pixel A lineup — now the Pixel 6a is catching fire

Some Pixel 6a users are reporting battery explosions, adding to a string of battery issues plaguing Google's A-series phones. Read on!

The iPhone 16e is definitely not the iPhone for everyone, but to say that it’s not a good phone for anyone would be wrong, too. The iPhone 16e works for a specific niche of people who want an iPhone that does the basics right without burning a big hole in their pocket.

Eid Mubarak to everyone celebrating!

Learning how to click photos, one news article at a time, haha. I really like how this one turned out!

The Galaxy S24 Ultra's sharp corners are really bad. I had similar issues, though I sold the phone/swapped out before the damage to my jeans became this noticeable. The bigger pain point was the phone digging into my wrists

One year later, the Galaxy S24 Ultra is still ripping a hole in people's pockets — literally

Galaxy S24 Ultra's sharp corners are ripping people's jeans. Thankfully, Samsung has fixed this with the S25 Ultra's rounded corners.

I have no intentions of purchasing the Galaxy S25 Ultra (I've owned all S Ultra since S21U, and it was getting stale), but the new Home Up update is a breath of fresh air, and so unlike Samsung. Fine-tuned animations? Insanely nerdy and overkill, but damn. Good job, Samsung!

I've published thousands of articles so far, but I still get very nervous whenever I have to schedule something for an embargo. Thanks timezones, always making me triple-check dates and times and trace emails and what-not

While everyone is focused on the latest shiny new phone, here's what is happening to one of yesteryear's legendary budget phones, the Pixel 4a.

Pixel 4a's surprise battery update is turning into its "update of death"

Google's Pixel 4a battery update has caused widespread issues, including reduced battery life and charging problems. Read on to know more!

...why do we want uncomfortable-to-hold, 'Slim' smartphones with sub-par battery and other compromises? The S24/S25 remain are pretty decent thickness. The weight can go down, and their shapes could improve before Samsung has to go around mindlessly, shaving off millimeters.

Buying a Windows laptop from Amazon (or elsewhere) remains a harrowing exercise in 2025. There are so many variations and so much technical jargon to sift through that it induces the paradox of choice and decision paralysis. Apple's simpler lineup feels like a breath of fresh air

Reading the leaked specifications of the Galaxy S25 series, I can't help but feel this way

Spotted users complaining about their iPhone alarm going off at the wrong time, and it turns out the bug has been around for at least 5 years at this point! https://buff.ly/426zifG

OnePlus 13 and 13R launched globally! India pricing: OnePlus 13R: * 12GB/256GB: ₹42,999 * 16GB/512GB: ₹49,999 OnePlus 13: * 12GB/256GB: ₹69,999 * 16GB/512GB: ₹76,999 * 24GB/1TB: ₹89,999 Thoughts?

Got my hands on the OnePlus 13 and OnePlus 13R last month. More thoughts soon 😁 #OnePlus13 #OnePlus13R

OnePlus took me and a bunch of other creators to Sri Lanka to experience the upcoming #OnePlus13 series. For now, I can share these camera samples, all of them Shot on OnePlus 13 in full auto:

It's kinda surprising how long it took Samsung to finally implement seamless updates. First, the Galaxy A55, and now finally expanding to flagships with the Galaxy S25. I'm glad it's finally happening, though. No more getting stuck at "Optimizing apps"

Galaxy S25 series confirmed to make software updates less of a hassle

Leaked files confirm that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will support seamless updates, and comes with the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. Read on for more!
