Motorola Edge 60 Pro review
Motorola has updated its Edge series right on schedule and the Edge 60, Edge 60 Fusion, and Edge 60 Pro, and Edge 60 Stylus are already available for purchase. Today we are going to explore the Motorola Edge 60 Pro, which brings an updated design, chipset, cameras, and battery compared to the Edge 50 Pro.
The Motorola Edge 60 Pro is a sleek smartphone with quad-curved panels, complete ingress protection (IP68/IP69) and MIL-STD-810H standards compliance. It is available in three cool Pantone colors, something that has become a trademark for Motorola lately.
The Edge 60 Pro packs a 6.7-inch P-OLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate, 10-bit color depth, 1220p resolution and HDR10+ support. While this new panel is advertised for the incredibly high peak brightness of 4,500 nits, it has lost the 144Hz option that was available on the Edge 50 Pro.
The good news is that the Edge 60 Pro brings a powerful Dimensity 8350 Extreme chip with a faster processor, graphics and LPDDR5X RAM compared to the Edge 50 Pro. The storage is also faster - UFS 4.0 vs. UFS 2.2.
The camera department has been tweaked a little, but is far from a major update. There is a 50MP OIS primary, a 10MP OIS 3x telephoto and a new 50MP ultrawide camera with autofocus. The selfie camera is still a 50MP imager.
The Edge 60 Pro comes with a large Si/C 6,000mAh battery and support for 90W wired and 15W wireless charging. It boots Android 15 and integrates the full suite of Moto AI features. Motorola Edge 60 Pro specs at a glance: Body: 160.7x73.1x8.2mm, 186g; plastic frame; IP68/IP69 dust tight and water resistant (high pressure water jets; immersible up to 1.5m for 30 min), MIL-STD-810H compliant.

5G; eSIM; Wi-Fi 6e; BT; NFC. Misc: Fingerprint reader (under display, optical); stereo speakers (with Dolby Atmos); Smart Connect support.
While the Edge 60 Pro brings a lot of upgrades, its selfie camera has lost autofocus capabilities and that's a bummer. Gone is also the fast 50W wireless charging, now limited to just 15W. Unfortunately, there are a couple of downgrades also worth nothing - the screen refresh rate only goes as high as 120Hz (down from 144Hz) and the wired charging is now rated at 90W (down from 125W). Unboxing the Motorola Edge 60 Pro
The Edge 60 Pro arrives in a white paper box, which is scented for a more premium unboxing experience, as is customary for higher-end Motorola products.
Anyway, the retail package contains a USB-C cable, a SIM ejection pin, and one thick plastic case with a sort of matching color and shape.

Pixel 10 Pro images leak
Sometimes you stumble on to something big like, say, a commercial being shot for a big-name flagship phone that won't be released until August. As it turns out, someone managed to walk by an ad being filmed for the Pixel 10 Pro. The lucky guy, known as @MarksGonePublic on X, took photos of a commercial titled "Ask more of your phone," which certainly sounds like a Googlesque title for a Pixel ad. A storyboard for the commercial shows what looks like the Pixel 10 Pro (not the Pixel 10 because it includes the temperature sensor). A storyboard shows a shot-by-shot breakdown of a commercial to give those working on it an idea of what to do while filming the spot. Storyboards aren't limited to commercials since they are used to help create cartoons, movies, and television shows and more. @MarksGonePublic took photos of the storyboard and some of the commercial shoot. We'd normally include the video sideshow that @MarksGonePublic posted on X, but his account has been taken down and we assume that Google had something to do with that. Storyboard for a Pixel 10 Pro commercial. | Image credit-MarksGonePublic As expected, the Pixel 10 Pro looks very much like the Pixel 9 Pro although what you can't see is that inside the former is the first application processor (AP) that Google has designed from scratch. Not only did Google not build the Tensor G5 around Samsung's Exynos AP, it also stopped having Samsung Foundry build the component. Instead, Google turned to TSMC, the world's largest foundry, to manufacture the AP using its second-generation 3nm node (N3E). Another photo of the storyboard used for the Pixel 10 Pro ad. | Image credit-MarksGonePublic It will be interesting to see if designing the Tensor G5 from the bottom up allows Google to build some truly drool-worthy new features exclusively for the Pixel 10 series. This is important because now that new Pixel phones get seven years of system updates, there might be less of a rush to upgrade without some killer application available for the Pixel 10 series. Member of the crew shooting Pixel 10 Pro ad gets some hands-on time with the star of the show. | Image credit-MarksGonePublic The Pixel 10 series could be unveiled in August during a Made by Google event. Besides the Pixel 10 , Pixel 10 Pro , and Pixel 10 Pro XL, we could see Google introduce its third foldable, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.

Xiaomi 16 specs leak
The Xiaomi 16 has a new round of leaked specs to speak of, courtesy of the prolific Weibo account Digital Chat Station. According to him, the phone will be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chipset, and will have three 50 MP rear cameras: a main one with a 1/1.3" type sensor, an ultrawide, and a telemacro. The phone will allegedly have a battery over 6,500 mAh in capacity, and a 6.3-inch flat OLED panel with thin bezels on all sides. None of these specs is unexpected, perhaps only the fact that the telemacro isn't specifically called out as a periscope - the Xiaomi 16 was previously rumored to be getting one of those. Xiaomi 16 leaked illustrative render Since Qualcomm is making the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 official at the end of September, don't be surprised if the Xiaomi 16 will also be unveiled before that month ends. In the meantime, we'll surely be hearing much more about it, so stay tuned. Source (in Chinese) | Image source

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 might cause significant disappointment to US customers
Samsung is preparing to launch its new flagship foldables in less than two months. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be Samsung's main top-tier products until next year when the South Korean company is expected to introduce its new Galaxy S26 series. A recent report coming from the South Korean media claimed the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will use two chipsets: Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite and Exynos 2500. The international version will be equipped with Samsung's Exynos 2500 chip, while the US model will get the Snapdragon 8 Elite. The report seemed very reliable considering that Samsung always does that with its flagships. All Samsung flagships launched in the United States are using Qualcomm chipsets, while the rest of the world is getting either MediaTek or Exynos chips. Unfortunately, that might not be the case this year. According to a new report, the firmware files for the US Galaxy Z Flip 7 indicate that the phone will be powered by the Exynos 2500 chipset. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset | Image credit: PhoneArena If that proves to be accurate, then the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be equipped with the Exynos 2500 processor in every market, including North America. It's unclear if that will be the case for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 too, but hopefully Samsung is worried that Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset isn't able to keep its foldable flagships cool enough because of how thin they are. We're not sure if this is the real reason or just a guess based on real-life tests, but if the report is true, it will disappoint many Samsung fans in the United type of chipset Samsung uses inside its smartphones remains a sensible topic for tech-savvy customers, although that might not be the case for the general public. What will really matter is how US carriers will decide to push Samsung's new foldables and whether or not they will recommend them over other similar products that use Qualcomm's chipsets like the Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 that has just made its debut in the country. This is probably a matter of perspective rather than performance, especially if the report that Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset can't keep a phone's battery cool enough the thinner a phone is proves to be correct.
