The certification reveals that the two models have different battery capacities, rated at 5,430 mAh and 5,600 mAh, respectively.

The Honor 600 and Honor 600 Pro are both unashamedly inspired by the design of the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max, featuring a 6.57-inch OLED screen with a 120Hz refresh rate and '1.5K' resolution.

Pricing was indeed a major issue for both phones, but don't let that nearly 20% pie slice in the chart fool you - the pricier Pro model was received more favorably, so it's about value for money, not just the price.

With the newest iPhones and Android devices at hand, the crew will be able to be a bit more spontaneous with image and video gathering, meaning that for those of us back home, these upcoming trips to space could end up being some of NASA's most well-documented journeys yet. Imagine how cool (or cringe-worthy) it will be if astronauts turn themselves into TikTok stars in zero gravity, or if they take ultra-wide-angle selfies in the spacecraft.

Smartphones are now the most crucial source of digital evidence in solving nearly every criminal investigation, a report has found. Detectives rely on the wealth of information held on the devices in 97 per cent of cases - double the number in which data from laptops was needed. With the devices containing swathes of detailed messages, photos and location data, police chiefs told the Mail the devices had become 'a crime scene in your pocket'.

Manufacturers like to adorn the long lists of features in their smartphone advertising with terms such as Super AMOLED, 120Hz, 5G, AI camera or ultra-wide angle but often this is more marketing than real added value for normal users. Sure, a lot of this stuff can be exciting for tech fans. But for everyday use, some of these extras are just unnecessary.

Technophile Anne Goldberg has become accustomed to formatting PowerPoint presentations in her career as a recruiter. As a result, when she found herself between jobs in the fall of 2013, she was happy when a friend paid her a fee to create a slideshow for a relative's 80th birthday party. The guests loved the display and congratulated Golberg, then 61, on her digital prowess, which dates back to being an early adopter of computers in the 1980s. She thought nothing more of it.

Almost 20 years ago, Apple CEO Steve Jobs announced the iPhone as "an iPod, a phone, an internet communicator." The world swooned at the time because that one device was all those things, and more. Today it is our wallet, our identity, our social media, our likes, dislikes, fitness levels, bank accounts, as well as our personal, sexual, and political identity.

Honor enjoyed a great 2025! It's been hard to find any losers in the maker's lineup, thanks to thoughtful upgrades and great deals throughout the year. Let's look at how it did. Winner: Honor Pad X9a and MagicPad 3 Honor made a few solid tablets in 2025, but the affordable Pad X9a and flagship MagicPad 3 were able to stamp their authority on markets such as Malaysia, where Honor was the number one tablet maker!

If any single company deserves recognition for bringing style back, it's Motorola. The Razr Ultra foldable in MountainTrail is easily the best-looking phone I used this year, but maybe I'm just partial to the Moto X vibes the wooden back evokes. The bronze-colored side rails, the satisfying sound as the flip phone snaps shut - it's all so nice. But it's not just foldables - Motorola has been way ahead

Here's a thought many of us have these days: if only we weren't on our damn phones all the time, we would surely unlock a better self-one that went on hikes and talked more with our children and felt less rank jealousy about other people's successes. It's a nice idea; once a day, at least, I wonder what my life would be like if I smashed my phone into bits and never contacted AppleCare.

This isn't about raising capital, it's about giving our community/fans a chance to invest while we're private and join us on the journey,

Whether you've read our reviews and agreed or disagreed, here's your chance to help decide what was the best tech of the year in our Readers' Choice Awards. Which phone was your favorite? Was it an Android device or one of the five iPhones (six if you count the biggest iPhone 17 Pro Max as separate) that Apple released throughout the calendar year? Or did foldables like the super thin and light Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 finally win your hard-earned money?

The smartphone changed all this for one simple reason. Everything and everyone became connected. The fundamental importance of this shift cannot be overstated. When everyone is connected - and, by 2020, there will be 4bn people online with 4bn smartphones - new startups are able to utilise this to offer a superior customer service. Suddenly, the consumer can have what they like, when they like it, where they like it.

Xiaomi has published its Q3 2025 financial report and the numbers are glowing - this is the fourth consecutive quarter with more than CNY 100 billion in revenue. Xiaomi's smartphone business is well established at this point and it continues to perform - the company shipped 43.3 million units globally, which marks the 9th consecutive quarter of growth. Globally, Xiaomi is in the Top 3 and it is #2 in China.

Despite the average Briton spending more than three hours a day on their phones, people simply never dream about their devices. In fact, scientists say there are five things that you will never see in a dream. Besides smartphones, dream researchers say that our sleeping minds either can't or won't recreate common details of the waking world. That means words, numbers, smells and tastes, and even our own reflections, almost never show up in dreams.
