Nothing Phone (3)
The Nothing Phone 3 is expected to be the company's first flagship. The phone is coming on July 1. So far, Nothing presented us with devices for the mid-range market. Nevertheless, its phones are unique, recognizable, and still reliable. Now, Carl Pei 's company's first flagship phone may turn out to be a flagship killer. Will it? We'll know quite soon.Here's what to expect from Nothing's first flagship phone.Reputable outlet SmartPrix recently revealed that the Nothing Phone 3 may come with a Snapdragon chip at least as powerful as the Dimensity 9400e. This is not the mightiest chip but it's among the flagship-grade ones. Leaks hint at either the Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 or even the Snapdragon 8 Elite may power this phone.Theis tipped to feature a larger battery that could exceed 5,000mAh. The exact mAh battery size has not leaked. Nevertheless, the expected bigger battery would be an upgrade over the Nothing Phone (2), which sported a 4,700mAh battery and came with 45W and 15W wireless charging.Theis said to come with Android 15 and Nothing OS 3.0. There will likely be plenty of new AI features, including Nothing's new Essential Space which was unveiled not too long ago with the Nothing Phone (3a) Pro.Essential Space is basically an AI hub that you can use to store screenshots, notes, and what have you, and is accessible with a specific key on the (3a) Pro. It's likely Nothing will have this AI prowess on its flagship as well.Leaks and rumors indicate thewill come with 12GB of RAM as a standard. One rumored option is the 12GB of RAM coupled with 256GB of storage, while another, beefier option is said to come with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Sporting more RAM is likely due to the growing demands from Artificial Intelligence, and also Nothing's aim at producing a real 'flagship' this time around.Judging by the teaser Nothing shared about the announcement of the device, themay not come with the now recognizable Glyph interface. The teaser suggests an LED-matrix-style animation which may replace the Glyph on the back. This would make for a more functional design.Together with the top-notch flagship specs the phone is said to sport, it would signify Nothing changing its focus from pure aesthetics to user experience and build quality.

The most powerful Android tablet is also a technological wonder
The upcoming RedMagic Tablet 3 Pro blurs the line between tablets and smartphones when it comes to size. In fact, this is the industry's first small tablet with the fastest charging speed. It's also the industry's first OLED gaming tablet, at least according to RedMagic. But what makes the Tablet 3 Pro stand out is its raw power. RedMagic's slate is, obviously, designed for gaming, so it comes with very powerful hardware. First off, we have a top-tier Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset featuring a dedicated vapor chamber. Secondly, RedMagic Tablet 3 Pro boasts an incredible 9-inch OLED display with 165Hz refresh rate and peak local brightness of 1,600 nits. According to the Chinese company, its flagship's display is industry's first to feature 5280Hz ultra-high frequency PWM dimming. Besides that, the panel comes with a blue light filter and eye protection for those very long gaming sessions. The Tablet 3 Pro is the industry's first gaming tablet with an OLED display | Image credit: RedMagic Despite its compact chassis, the Tablet 3 Pro packs a large 8,200 mAh battery, which features 80W fast charging speeds. Once again, RedMagic claims that this is the industry's first small tablet with the fastest charging speed. How fast you ask? Apparently, the RedMagic Tablet 3 Pro's battery charges 50% in just 22 minutes. It also supports bypass charging, which means that while charging, the tablet draws power directly from the charger instead of the battery. That not only reduces the need for battery cycling but also extends the battery lifespan in many cases.

This chip supports wet hand touch and comes with advanced hot zone touch top it all off, RedMagic says the Tablet 3 Pro is the industry's first flat back cover tablet, which features the company's exclusive transparent active cooling fan design. RedMagic Tablet 3 Pro will be officially introduced in China on June 11. It will be available in two color options: Deuterium Blade Transparent Dark Night and Deuterium Blade Transparent Silver Wing. No details about prices have been revealed yet.

Nothing releases another Phone (3) teaser image
Late last month, Nothing unveiled the first teaser image depicting a small part of its upcoming Phone (3), and today the company is back with another one. It's still not a full view of any part of the device, it just seems to be a more zoomed-out version of the initial image. It is however looking like Nothing might give up on its transparent-like look for the back of the phone. The company has already confirmed that the Phone (3) won't have the Glyph LED lights on the back, with rumors swirling about the fact that it would be replaced with a customizable dot-matrix display. Phone (3). Ultra-precise engineering. — Nothing (@nothing) June 6, 2025 Clearly, Nothing enjoys teasing us like this, and we fully expect another, even more zoomed-out image to follow in a few days. And so on. The Phone (3) will be made official at an event in London on July 1, alongside the company's first-ever pair of over-ear headphones. Nothing is billing the Phone (3) as its first proper flagship smartphone, but based on the pricing that Nothing CEO Carl Pei revealed, it will probably end up being more of a 'flagship killer' type of device. Still, definitely the highest-end the brand has ever produced, that's for sure.

Apple reportedly delays the release of two AI-enhanced apps until iOS 27
We already have a good idea of what to expect from Apple this Monday when WWDC's Keynote kicks off at 10 am PDT (1 pm EDT). We also have a good idea of what not to expect Apple to unveil after pushing back the debut of "personal" Siri. You might remember the ad that showed actress Bella Ramsey panicking because she couldn't remember the name of this boy she met at a cafe a few months before. She asked Siri and the digital assistant went through her texts, emails, and other apps to get the name. Because of the delay that is pushing back the release of personal Siri, Apple pulled the ad . At this stage, it is hard to know exactly when "Personal" Siri and more "AI" based features will be coming to Apple's digital assistant. All indications point to a release of these features for Siri sometime in middle-to-late 2026. Apple also had to delay new features that would allow Siri to understand what was on your display and use that knowledge to respond to queries. The ability to use Siri to control apps and in-app features has also been put off by Apple. Receive the latest iOS news By subscribing you agree to our terms and conditions and privacy policy A more advanced version of Siri, dubbed LLM Siri (for Large Language Model Siri) could be as much as two years away. This would allow Siri to work the same way as generative AI apps such as ChatGPT and Gemini. Currently, on iPhone models running Apple Intelligence , Siri will pass questions that it can't answer over to ChatGPT after asking you first if that is okay. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, AI-enhanced versions of the Calendar app and the Health app will not be mentioned at WWDC this year. Both apps will be pushed back to iOS 27 (still feels weird to say, right?). While there will be smaller changes made for both apps this year, the bulk of the updates will come in 2026 in iOS 27 which has been given the codename of Buttercup (which no doubt makes you think of the 1968 hit "Build Me Up Buttercup" by the Foundations). The nickname for macOS 27, also expected to be released next year, is Honeycrisp.
