Redmi K80 Ultra stops by Geekbench, confirms its chipset, memory, and Android version
A few hours ago, Redmi ramped up its teaser campaign for the upcoming K80 Ultra, which is the brand's flagship smartphone. Now, the device has been spotted in the Geekbench database, where a prototype managed a single-core score of 2,679 and a multi-core score of 8,358. As always with benchmark results of pre-release devices, don't read too much into these numbers.
The listing has confirmed the fact that the Redmi K80 Ultra is powered by MediaTek's Dimensity 9400+ SoC, and in the specific unit that ran the benchmark it was paired with 16GB of RAM, which we assume will be the top level, with 12GB possibly offered as well.
The phone will launch running Android 15 with Xiaomi's HyperOS on top, and those are all the details that the benchmark run has uncovered. According to a certification from May, the handset will have a battery with a rated capacity of 7,270 mAh, which will translate into 7,400 mAh or 7,500 mAh typical advertised capacity.
It is also expected to sport a 6.83-inch "1.5K" flat OLED screen, an ultrasonic in-display fingerprint scanner, a triple rear camera setup with a 50 MP main, support for 100W wired charging, as well as IP68 and IP69 dust and water resistance ratings.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro vs. Redmi Note 14 Pro+ (global models)
You're shopping for a mid-range phone in the €200–€300 range, and the Redmi Note 14 series clearly offers solid value. The problem? The lineup is packed with confusingly similar models -some even limited to 4G. We can also understand how comparing the Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro 5G (Global) and the Xiaomi Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 5G (Global) may be a tough choice. The price gap is minimal, and their spec sheets are nearly identical. We're here to help you figure out whether spending an extra €50-€60 for the Plus version is actually worth it - or if the standard Pro meets your needs just fine. Table of Contents: Design Display Battery Life Charging Speaker Test Performance Cameras Verdict For starters, you can compare the complete specs sheets or directly continue with our editor's assessment in the following text. Size comparison The Redmi Note 14 Pro and the Pro+ have very similar dimensions, with the latter having a slightly thicker and heavier chassis, probably due to the difference in materials. If not vegan leather, the Plus model gives you a glass back instead of plastic. But for the most part, you won't feel a difference and it's no surprise. They both feature the same 6.67-inch display. In any case, you will get a more premium build with the Plus. Display comparison The two Redmis feature the exact same display panels. We didn't find any difference in our measurements as well. Both devices boost to around 1,200 nits of max brightness. Battery life The two handsets offer similar battery life, which is expected given the shared hardware - identical displays and identical 5,110 mAh cells. The only difference is the chipset, and the Dimensity 7300 Ultra inside the Redmi Note 14 Pro seems to be the slightly more efficient one. The Non-Plus Pro model edges out the Pro+ in the call, web and video tests, gaining an extra hour of Active Use Score. Charging speed The charging rate is perhaps the most notable distinction between the two Redmis. The Pro+ offers blazing fast 120W charging, completing a full charging cycle within 21 minutes. The non-Plus replenishes only around half of its battery's charge in that time, and it takes more than an hour to complete a full charge. Speaker test There's no detectable difference in the loudspeaker's tuning and volume with our contenders. You get decent speakers with "Good" volume with either phone. Performance Naturally, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ runs on the more powerful chipset, the Snapdragon 7s Gen 3, while the non-Plus settles for a Dimensity 7300 Ultra SoC. Both chipsets fall into the mid-range segment. But while the Snapdragon is the more powerful of the two, the Dimensity silicon is apparently more effective, judging by the Redmi Note 14 Pro's battery endurance. Memory configurations are absolutely identical. Both phones start at 8GB/256GB and go up to 12GB/512GB. In either case, the storage chips are UFS 2.2, and there's no microSD card slot. Benchmark performance In terms of raw performance, the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ outperforms the Redmi Note 14 Pro by 11% in CPU-bound benchmark tests and by merely 9% in combined workloads like AnTuTu 10. However, according to the 3DMark Wild Life Extreme benchmark test, which is primarily GPU-intensive, the Plus variant outperforms the standard Pro by about 24%, which is a significant gap. So for the gamers out there, the Pro+ might be the better option. Camera comparison The two Redmis share identical camera hardware featuring a solid 200MP main camera, aided by an 8MP ultrawide unit and a 2MP macro shooter. The selfie camera uses a 20MP sensor. Should there be any notable difference in image quality or rendering style, it's likely due to the ISP. That's the only difference in this equation. Image quality As expected, the two devices deliver similar camera quality. There's no meaningful difference in terms of sharpness, clarity and detail. However, there's a small difference in rendering. For instance, the non-Plus produces warmer and potentially more likable images. The color temperature seems more accurate with warmer hues, whereas the Pro+ tends to render the scenes colder. Redmi Note 14 Pro: 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x • 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x Redmi Note 14 Pro+: 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x • 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x Additionally, the non-Plus offers a wider dynamic range and handles highlights better. That's not always the case with the ultrawide cameras, though, where the two phones trade blows. Sometimes the Pro+ gets the exposure right, sometimes the non-Plus. It's trickier in low-light scenarios, though. The non-Plus model produces nicer ultrawide photos with better sharpness, detail and dynamic range. This applies to the 2x and 4x zoom modes. However, as far as the 1x Photo mode is concerned, the Pro+ outputs cleaner, sharper images with more natural shadows and more balanced highlights. Redmi Note 14 Pro: 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x • 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x Redmi Note 14 Pro+: 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x • 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 4x The two phones produce identical selfies, but the non-Plus offers an ever so slightly wider dynamic range. Selfies: Redmi Note 14 Pro • Redmi Note 14 Pro+ Video quality Below we have a few framegrabs from the videos taken by the two phones at each focal length, so it's easier to compare to one another. The non-Plus offers nicer videos with more accurate exposure and cleaner overall footage. The ultrawide video on the non-Plus has considerably better detail, both day and night. Redmi Note 14 Pro 4K frame grabs: 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 0.6x • 1x • 2x Redmi Note 14 Pro+ 4K frame grabs: 0.6x • 1x • 2x • 0.6x • 1x • 2x Verdict Despite the fact that the Pro+ is marketed as a higher-tier phone with more premium features, it's not necessarily the better phone for most users. The Redmi Note 14 Pro and the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ share similar hardware, like display, battery capacity and cameras, but the non-Plus comes out on top in many categories, even though it's the cheaper of the two. For instance, the standard Pro offers slightly longer battery life and overall better camera experience (with a few exceptions). It also matches the Plus in the display and loudspeaker department. The Pro+, on the other hand, compensates the slightly lower battery endurance with blazing-fast charging, flagship-level even. The handset also posts higher GPU benchmark scores and offers a more premium build (if you go for the glass back version). But for the most part, these phones are very close siblings, as the name implies, so at the end of the day, you will be paying an extra €50 for the faster charging and small performance gain and it's up to you to decide what those features are worth to you. The largely identical user experience. The slightly longer battery life. The slightly better camera experience. The lower price tag. The more powerful chipset. The faster charging. The more premium build.

Nubia's first-ever Android tablet is perfect for work and entertainment
Nubia is no longer a ZTE brand, but an independent company that can decide what products to make and when to launch them. In that regard, the Chinese brand announced its high-end Pad Pro tablet is now available Pad Pro was initially launched in China back in April, but it's now up for grabs in just about every corner of the world where Nubia officially sells its sets the Pad Pro apart from other high-end tablets is that if you're looking for a slate that you can work on and also play or watch some videos, you get the best of both worlds. Nubia Pad Pro uses a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, which is Qualcomm's flagship chipset from two years ago. Yes, the chipset is a bit old, but considering the tablet's price, the Pad Pro remains quite competitive. This isn't a very large tablet (253.3 x 164.6 x 7.3mm), but it's built with an aerospace-grade unibody metal chassis. Also, its 45-degree anti-slip tilt design enhances grip and stability, making it comfy to carry and use on the go. Nubia Pad Pro | Images credits: Nubia The Pad Pro sports a 10.9-inch IPS LCD display with 2.8K resolution (1800 x 2880 pixels) and 144Hz refresh rate. For audio, it supports DTS X Ultra spatial 3D sound, creating an immersive stereo experience perfect for entertainment and content the front side, Nubia Pad Pro features a 20-megapixel HD camera, which promises high-quality video calls and conferencing. The tablet also has a 13-megapixel main camera on the back important aspect is that the Pad Pro has a very large 10,100 mAh battery, which features support for 66W wired charging speeds. It also has a 78-key full-function keyboard layout that promises to deliver a laptop-like typing experience for smooth writing and Pad Pro's price is closer to a mid-range tablet rather than a flagship one. Of course, it really depends on which of the three versions you'd like to purchase. Nubia Pad Pro 8/256GB – $419 / £359 / €419 Nubia Pad Pro 12/256GB – $489 / £429 / €489 Nubia Pad Pro 16/512GB – $599 / £499 / €579 The tablet is available for purchase online via Nubia's official stores. You'll be redirected to the corresponding store depending on the location. As seen in the gallery above, the Pad Pro is available in Gray and White colors. Some alternatives to Nubia's first-ever tablet in case you can't afford it would be the OnePlus Pad 2, OnePlus Pad Pro, and Lenovo Legion Y700 (2025). They're all in the same ballpark and use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, but they have smaller or bigger displays.

From Bugs to Brilliance: The Real Story of the OnePlus 13 (after six months)
And then I remembered about this phone: the OnePlus 13. When talking about the best phones out there, the OnePlus 13 often is left out of the conversation, but it is not only a great value buy at just $800, it's a great flagship period. A few things that really make this phone special, but there are also a few shortcomings, so let's talk about the good and the bad of the OnePlus 13 . The first and most important one is the smooth performance of the UI. This was especially noticeable after my time using the Galaxy S25 Ultra . I definitely feel like I upgraded with the OnePlus 13 . No matter the yearly Samsung optimizations, there is always a bit of a micro-stutter when using gesture navigation in One UI, and I might be super sensitive to that, but I notice those a lot. None of that on the OnePlus 13 ! Gestures are smooth, the performance is lightning fast, and the interface is free of clutter.I'm also super happy OnePlus is NOT copying Apple as much as Samsung is these days. The new Now Bar on Samsung phones, for example, is probably the worst thing to happen to One UI. Why are my music controls in a tiny bar at the very bottom of the screen? And why are they so tiny? This makes common tasks like switching to the next song in my playlist so much harder. Thankfully, the OnePlus 13 does not suffer from this. Second, but also just as appreciated as the performance, is the quick charging on the OnePlus 13. This is an absolute game-changer. Especially, if you don't like charging your phone overnight and charge it up in the morning instead. Having the ability to just top up the phone for 20 or 30 minutes and a get full day's worth of battery is absolutely great. Nobody's got a full hour to wait for a proper charge like you have to with most other phones!Just remember that this quick charging only works with a OnePlus charger, and if you try using something like an Anker charger with USB Power Delivery, the phone drops down to quite slow 25 watt speeds. Third, the OnePlus 13 might just be the best designed phone of 2025. There are two things that elevate it to this level. First, OnePlus offers this blue soft touch finish that feels so much better than your any bland glass and metal design, but even more impressively, this is a big phone that feels much smaller than its screen size. I don't know about you, but my idea of a fun walk does not involve a giant phone dangling in my pocket. The OnePlus 13 is not only smaller than other flagships, but the slight taper on the back of the phone helps a lot for ergonomics. Plus, you still have almost flat sides, which is very important for durability when you inevitably drop your phone on the concrete floor one day. One more point on the design: it's worth noticing that the OnePlus 13 is very well-balanced, a stark contrast to camera phones from Vivo for example that are top-heavy because of their gigantic cameras, and it feels like you might drop them any second. Fourth, one software feature is an absolute game-changer. You might think I'm talking about the OnePlus Canvas multitasking (that Android will now basically copy in Android 16), but this is not what I have in mind. My favorite OnePlus software feature is the easy photo sharing with iPhones. This feature is seriously under-rated — just go on a vacation and then try to share all your photos with your iPhone-using friends. You'll understand its appeal right away. Okay, enough with the praise, the OnePlus 13 is not a perfect phone and I also have some complaints after my time with the phone. First, the vibration. The first week of using the OnePlus 13 , I couldn't figure out how to have the phone vibrate on a call at all! Frustrating! It turns out that you have an option where the haptics would sync with your tune, but for some reason, that resulted in no vibration at all, and I found myself missing quite a few important calls. The fix to that was to turn off the haptics sync feature. So far so good, the phone finally vibrates when you get a call, the vibration is so weak, I am still missing important calls and notifications. That's just unacceptable in 2025, and it's strange that OnePlus has not fixed this issue, considering the multitude of complaints about this in online forums. It's also strange because haptics have actually been a key area of improvement for OnePlus. And haptics while typing or even interacting with menu elements are very refined, but they are just too weak for the more important features like... not missing a call. Second, it seems that this is a widespread problem on Android phones, but font sizes are just messed up. This has been one of my big frustrations with practically every Android phone I pick up, and there is no way to get the font size just right. Increasing the font in the system would result in improvements in one app, but oversized fonts in another. On the OnePlus 13 , I found that text in the browser for some reason appeared much larger and font scaling worked a bit better on the Galaxy S25 Ultra . I don't know what is the solution for that, but Android's font inconsistencies are the one area I really want to see improved in the next Android version. Third, the camera quality. It's not great. It's not bad either, but definitely not great. Here, I'm not even talking about some occasional issues with color accuracy or slightly insufficient detail, but bigger problems like... completely losing the focus! I record myself often, just placing the phone somewhere, and on multiple occasions now the phone would just lose the focus and never regain it in videos. That has never happened with me while using other recent flagship phones, and it's just very disappointing missing an important moment on video this there are other, more conventional issues I've noticed. For those who record a lot of video, the excessive oversharpening happening with video recordings is something that is a turn-off. In photos, colors are occasionally a bit on the bleak side, and portrait mode photos sometimes have a weird halo effect around a person's face. Fourth, I just hoped battery life would be amazing. After all, having a 6,000mAh silicon-carbon battery gives you sky-high expectations, but either for the particular power management on this phone or for some other reason I am getting just... regular flagship battery life. Not much better than the Galaxy S25 Ultra , which has a 20% smaller not take this as me advocating for thinner phones with smaller batteries, though, quite the opposite. Overall, though, when you compare the price of the OnePlus 13 to other phones, it's an absolute steal. The base model with 12 gigs of RAM and 256 gigs of storage has an MSRP of $900, but realistically you end up paying $800 because of the OnePlus recycle any phone policy which drops $100 off the price. Would I recommend the OnePlus 13 ? If you can live with the occasional bug in the camera app, I think you can live with its other shortcomings. OnePlus as a brand remains very underrated, and it has a lot going for it. Let me know your thoughts about OnePlus and its latest flagship in the comments below.
