OnePlus just made charging your watch and phone way less messy
The new cable is red, which is nothing new, and it's also Supervooc-branded for fast charging. It charges your phone via the typical USB-C, but alongside that, it also features a mid-mounted puck with POGO pins for your OnePlus smartwatch. It will charge your OnePlus Watch 2, Watch 2R, or Watch 3. Meanwhile, if you only charge a OnePlus phone, the cable supports up to 80W fast charging. When you charge both your phone and your smartwatch, the phone gets 67W while the smartwatch gets 10W of power.
This interesting cable is available right now for purchase from OnePlus for $29.99. Of course, this is just the cable, so you need your own charging brick to use with it. The cable is also equipped with an E-marker smart chip to protect your phone and smartwatch from overload, and is 120 cm long. So there you go! A dual charging cable. Yep, we've seen dual charging stands for wireless charging, but as you know, wireless charging is slower than traditional wired charging, so OnePlus is being creative and innovative here.
If I had OnePlus devices, I'd definitely be equipping myself with this cable, but unfortunately, this one doesn't work with iPhones and Apple Watches, and that's what I'm currently rocking, personally. So, I'm left waiting for Apple to offer something similar. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Canalys: Huawei is back as number 1 in China in Q2 of 2025
Canalys released its report on the Chinese smartphone market in the second quarter of 2025. The world's biggest smartphone ground showed a slight decline of 4% compared to Q2 of 2024 but is still en route to outperform the global smartphone market in 2025. Huawei was the largest smartphone vendor in the second quarter, shipping 12.2 million phones, which accounted for 18% of the market share. That's a 15% increase year-over-year. Huawei's HarmonyOS 5.0-powered Nova 14 series proved key in its Q2 success. Close in second was vivo with 11.8 million units shipped - a 17% share of the market. Vivo's staggered release strategy saw new models in the X200, S30, and Y300 series. Oppo (featuring OnePlus models as well) was third with 10.7 million units shipped, or 16% of the market. Xiaomi and Apple were fourth and fifth with a shared 15% of the market and 10.4 million and 10.1 million shipped phones, respectively. Canalys projects that vendors would face challenges to keep momentum going as H1 of 2025 saw greater demand, thanks to a national subsidy program that has now ended. Source

Meizu 22 teased with world's slimmest display bezels
Today, Meizu has started teasing the upcoming 22, a new smartphone that's going to have the world's thinnest screen bezels, according to the brand itself. The bezels will be identical in size on all four sides of the phone's screen, and each will measure just 1.2mm. We can't independently verify this claim as we don't go and measure every screen bezel out there, please keep in mind. We're just wondering when the bezel war will finally be behind us - if another company comes out with 1.1mm bezels, will anyone really notice any difference between those and these 1.2mm bezels? Probably not. Meizu 22 official teaser image Anyway, the Meizu 22 will definitely have a panel with incredibly narrow bezels, that's for sure. The phone is billed by the brand as a small-screen flagship and is due to become official "mid-summer", whatever that means. The device will be 71mm wide, and should have a great camera system. Past rumors have talked about it sporting a 5,500 mAh battery and a periscope telephoto camera, as well as the Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC at the helm. Source (in Chinese)

The Xiaomi 16 Ultra might offer something truly exceptional in terms of photography
That's the Xiaomi 15 Ultra for reference. | Image by PhoneArena Back in the days when I used a dedicated camera for casual snapshots, I used to zoom non-stop between focal lengths: with phones, it's not quite the same experience. That could change as soon as the Xiaomi 16 Ultra materializes. That's the rumored flagship that could, if the stars align, bring along something that many photographers would love: continuous optical zoom. So, if you happen to photograph something that's too far away for your 3x snapper – but too close for your, say, 5x secondary zoom – you could get away with capturing the shot at 3,5x or 4,1x without substantial image quality loss. Xiaomi 15 Ultra. | Image by PhoneArena The leak suggests that Xiaomi reduces quality loss during zoom by using a single CMOS sensor shared between two optical zoom ranges. This setup enables smoother transitions when zooming in or out without compromising image clarity. It would be great if Xiaomi pulls this off. Currently, I very rarely shoot at anything between 3x and 6x (the two dedicated periscope cameras on my Oppo Find X7 Ultra). It's not that I don't trust my 3x camera at 4,5x (that's well into digital zoom territory), but it's just faster to shoot at either 3x or 6x. If there's a need to crop something, I can do that later, after I've captured my shot. In contrast, I rarely crop in pictures that I took with my 6x camera. I zoom within my camera app before I press the shutter button, and I let the handset do its post-processing magic for shots at 10x and above. Although I tend to shoot at 10x rarely, truth to be continuous optical zoom, that whole decision-making process could feel more natural – more like using a real camera. Instead of jumping between fixed zoom levels or relying on digital trickery, the lens would smoothly adapt to whatever framing I want. I wouldn't need to think in strict steps like 3x or 6x; a pinch to zoom and shoot will be enough, knowing the optics are actually moving to support that framing. If Xiaomi pulls it off properly, it could be a quiet revolution and I'm looking forward to this one.
