Samsung starts buying Chinese display panels for its mid-range smartphones‎

According to a new report from Korea, Samsung is diversifying its display supply chain. This creates a funny situation where Samsung (Electronics) will stop buying screens from Samsung (Display) for some mid-range devices, instead opting to purchase from CSOT, owned by TCL. CSOT's panels are at least 20% cheaper than Samsung's, and the move is speculated to be aimed at offsetting rising memory costs by lowering other device costs in the mid-range. Samsung has allegedly ordered 15 million display panels from CSOT, which will be used in the upcoming Galaxy A57 as well as some unnamed...

Now that the Oppo Find N6 is official, let's take a closer look at it. We already did an unboxing, but to recap, it ships with a two-piece case, an 80W charger, and a USB cable.

Oppo achieved this by laser-measuring the differences in hinge depth...

Poco X8 Pro Iron Man Edition in for review‎

While its Pro Max sibling aspires to become a “flagship killer”, the Poco X8 Pro is much closer to the feeling of the X7 Pro from last year. That’s both good and bad – on the one hand, the X7 and X7 Pro were quite popular last year, on the other hand, not much has changed in the 14 months since the X7 series arrived. First, we need to open the box and explain something – you must have noticed that the box looks bigger and more colorful than a typical phone box today. This is because the unit that we received for testing is the Poco X8 Pro Iron Man Edition. The Poco X8 Pro Iron...
