Oppo made the best foldable phone, again

There are always a few reasons people give for not buying a foldable phone. Some – price, battery life, camera quality – are mostly a matter of manufacturers balancing spec sheets to offset the added cost of the folding hardware. Others – durability, size – were practical design problems that have mostly been solved. But […]

Nothing Phone 4A Pro review: That flagship feeling

CEO Carl Pei says Nothing won’t release a flagship phone this year. So instead we have the 4A Pro, a $499 phone that looks and feels higher-end than last year’s flagship Phone 3, helped in large part by a new metal design. Compare the Phone 4A Pro to its immediate rivals, the Pixel 10A and […]

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra review: show off

“Someone might be watching everything I’m doing on my screen,” I tell myself in public. Even when I’m doing nothing of consequence – just making my little Wordle guesses – there’s a sense of unease that stays with me. It’s never bothered me too much, and I generally save the sensitive stuff like banking for […]

Google Pixel 10A review: Just buy the 9A

I’m not entirely sure why the Pixel 10A exists. Google hasn’t upgraded the chipset, cameras, or battery in the new phone, and the tweaks it’s made elsewhere are minimal at best. The flatter camera island is good, I guess! In one sense this isn’t a big problem: The Pixel 9A is an excellent device, and […]

Samsung Galaxy S26 and S26 Plus review: This again

While Samsung has treated its Flips and Folds to a few major hardware upgrades over recent years, the Galaxy S flagships have often felt like a long, unbroken line of minor spec refreshes. The S26 and S26 Plus do nothing to change that trend. The Galaxy S26 Ultra at least benefits from the company’s new […]

The iPhone 17E is good, but you probably shouldn’t buy it

The iPhone 17E is a better value than the 16E was when it arrived, but that should matter to basically nobody. The main thing to know about the 17E is that the iPhone 17 exists, it costs $200 more – or maybe more significantly, an extra $9 per month on a two-year payment plan not […]

Xiaomi’s Leica Leitzphone mostly earns the name

Xiaomi and Leica’s long-running phone partnership just got a little closer. Alongside the new international release of its 17 Ultra flagship, Xiaomi has been entrusted with manufacturing a separate version that is the first Leica Leitzphone to release outside of Japan, following three Sharp-made models exclusive to the country. In truth, the Leitzphone is a […]

Honor steps up to the big leagues with the Magic 8 Pro

I have a simple gut check I use when reviewing phones, especially ones that rely on their cameras as a selling point: how often do I wish I had another phone with me instead? These days, it’s mostly the Vivo X300 Pro I miss when I’m testing something else, a phone whose camera remains unmatched. […]

OnePlus 15R review: unbeatable battery life, beatable value

The OnePlus 15R’s battery life is exceptional. It’s a smidge better than the very impressive OnePlus 15’s, and the 15R costs two hundred dollars less. So why am I having a hard time recommending it? Typically, OnePlus’ R-series phone is a simplified, less-expensive follow-up to the main flagship – in this case, the OnePlus 15. […]
