Two-time F1 champion Fernando Alonso appears in new Realme GT 7 teaser
Realme is launching the GT 7 smartphone next week, and we are expecting a Dream Edition, co-designed with Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team. One of the drivers there is the two-time world champion Fernando Alonso, who appeared in the latest video teaser of the phone, talking about pushing and going beyond the limit.
From racetracks to real tech – Aston Martin Aramco F1® Team & realme co-engineered every element of #realmeGT7DreamEdition with premium craftsmanship.
Launching May 27th!https://t.co/z8Dhu2oiAJhttps://t.co/4yyw2JuPlJ#realmeGT7Series #2025FlagshipKiller #AstonMartinF1phone pic.twitter.com/9mPuaRdsZJ — realme (@realmeIndia) May 23, 2025
The 41-year-old driver does not mention Realme in the 51-second video, and neither does Matthew Chapman, head of Licensing and Merchandise at the Formula One team.
It is the Realme team that talks about peak performance, perfection, and boundary-pushing design. The phone itself also did not appear in the video.
We did receive a unit of the Realme GT 7, and it looks a lot like the GT 7 Pro. It is a lovely IceSense Blue color with red accents, while the Aston Martin Dream Edition will be a British Racing Green variant with the car logo on the back.
Either way it's a premium device with a Dimensity 9400e chipset, and will appear alongside the GT 7T.

iQOO 15 screen and camera specs tipped
The iQOO 13 was among the first phones to launch with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen Elite when it made its debut in late October of last year and expectations are that its successor will launch around the same time this fall. Digital Chat Station went ahead and shared some preliminary specs for the device, which will apparently be called iQOO 15. As per the post, the iQOO 15 will feature a Samsung-made 6.85-inch "2K" display. This is most likely an LTPO AMOLED panel, and the tipster suggests that it will utilize the LIPO (low injection pressure overmolding) display packing process, which helps reduce display bezels. Aside from the fancy new display, iQOO 15 is expected to offer a periscope camera module, which would be an upgrade from the 2x telephoto found on its predecessor. Previous rumors also suggest a 7,000mAh battery. vivo iQOO 13 Source (in Chinese) | Via

iPhone 17 leak corroborates a display glow-up fans have waited years for
The iPhone 16 . | Image Credit - PhoneArena A new leak is giving us very exciting information about the base iPhone 17. If the leaks are anything to go by, the iPhone 17 lineup is shaping up to be a head-turner – for better or worse. We're expecting a redesign for the Pro models and the debut of an ultra-slim new addition, reportedly called the iPhone 17 Air. Love it or hate it, Apple seems to be charging ahead with these changes, judging by the sheer volume of leaks surrounding the lineup. Another previously rumored change is said to come for the base model. The base iPhone 17 may be the only model that remains "recognizable" from the series, but it is expected to also get some upgrade love. In the display department. Now, another reputable voice, analyst Ross Young, in a subscriber post (via AppleInsider) is corroborating earlier expectations about the iPhone 17 display. According to Young (as well as some other earlier rumors) the iPhone 17 may get a bigger screen. The display may grow from 6.1 inches to 6.3 inches - well, 6.27 inches precisely. Multiple earlier leaks have reported this change, and those came from different sources, so it's safe to assume it is very likely to happen. Apart from that increase in screen real estate, another very welcomed rumored upgrade is (finally!) a 120Hz refresh rate. ProMotion displays – those with 120Hz refresh rates – have been reserved for Pro-branded models for years, but now it may be time for the base iPhone 17 model to get it. On top of it all, the leak also hints the iPhone 17 will get always-on display support. The iPhone 16 Pro has a 6.3-inch display. | Image Credit - PhoneArena As you can see, this is very good news, if the rumor turns out to be true. A bigger display, fluid motions, and always-on would make the base iPhone 17 even more appealing. Last year, the iPhone 16 Pro and Pro Max's display sizes grew from 6.1 and 6.7 inches to 6.3 and 6.9 inches, respectively. The iPhone 16 retained the same screen size as its predecessor, though, so it's probably about time for it to grow as well. Probably the most exciting phone from the lineup is the iPhone 17 Air , though. It is bound to replace the 'Plus' model (which replaced the 'Mini' model) and is said to be an extremely thin phone. It recently leaked compared to the iPhone 16 Plus and showed off its exquisite thinness. The iPhone 17 series will compete with the Galaxy S25 phones for the title of the best flagship. Even the Air has a competitor in the face of the newly-launched Galaxy S25 Edge, another slim beauty fighting for your heart.

Oppo Find X8 Ultra bend test doesn't end well
Oppo launched the Find X8 Ultra in April, and unfortunately it's a China-only device so most of the world will never see it. That hasn't stopped Zack from JerryRigEverything getting one in order to perform his famous durability testing on Oppo's latest flagship device. And it's an interesting test to say the least. It starts off normally with the glass on top of the screen scratching at level 6 on the Mohs hardness scale, with deeper grooves showing up at level 7. The frame is metal, the screen takes an open flame for about 35 seconds, but no visible marks remain afterwards. Finally, the bend test is where things get bad. When bending from the back, nothing happens, but when bending from the front, the frame separates along the antenna line that's right in between the power and volume buttons. It doesn't get damaged any further, however, which makes for a very weird test result - it hasn't categorically failed, but it definitely hasn't passed either. And it now has an odd shape, and the IP rating might be compromised. At the end of the video you can find a bonus teardown section, so if you've always wanted to take a peek inside the Find X8 Ultra, make sure you don't miss it. And if you want to learn more about this device, read our in-depth review.
