GSM Arena2 days ago
Some have expressed concern over the future of Xperia phones following reports that the company is looking for third-party manufacturers for future high-end models (Xperia mid-rangers are already made by ODMs) and after the company started to pull back from Europe. If you were among those concerned, here's some good news.
Sony Group CFO Sue Lin said that Xperia is 'a very important business for us' during a briefing on the company's financial results earlier today. Lin repeated something that Sony has stated in the past too – 'communication technology is used for things other than smartphones'. Sue Lin, Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of Sony Group
The launch of the Sony Xperia 1 VII hasn't been smooth sailing – issues forced Sony to pause sales and announce a replacement program. The 1 VII is the only new model that Sony has announced this year and we haven't seen any leaks about upcoming Mark 7 models for the Xperia 5 and 10 series.

Meet the Samsung Galaxy Tab A11

Samsung is working on a bunch of tablets due to launch in the near future - the Galaxy Tab S11, S11 Ultra, and S10 Lite have been in the rumors a lot lately. Now it seems like there are two more tablets in the Korean company's development pipeline, the Galaxy Tab A11 and A11+. These two are rumored to land in India next month. The Galaxy Tab A11 has just been spotted receiving a certification by Safety Korea, and this has helpfully resulted in the live image you can see below, depicting the tablet. It has the model number SM-X135N. No specs have been revealed through this process, but one past rumor did tell us to expect a 5,000 mAh battery. That's ridiculously low for a tablet, but keep in mind that the A11 will be the successor to the A9 from 2023, which has a 5,100 mAh cell, so not far off. Obviously, the Galaxy Tab A11+ should be the successor to the Tab A9+. Both of these will be low-end devices, based on their predecessors, and should thus be quite cheap. Source 1 | Source 2 | Via

A Realme 15 Pro Game of Thrones Limited Edition is coming

Vlad, 09 August 2025 The Realme 15 Pro went official last month, and now it seems like Realme is working on a Game of Thrones Limited Edition version of the device. This was just certified for sale in Malaysia by SIRIM alongside the normal Realme 15 Pro, revealing that both variants will be for sale in the country in the near future. The themed edition is expected to have the exact same specs as the normal model, but of course it should be heavily Game of Thrones themed, from the design of the back to the software - and we wouldn't be surprised to see some GoT themed trinkets thrown in the (presumably also special) box. The Realme 15 Pro has a 6.8-inch 1280x2800 OLED screen with 144 Hz refresh rate and 6,500-nit peak brightness, the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC at the helm, 8/12GB of RAM, 128/256/512GB of storage, a 50 MP main camera with OIS, a 50 MP ultrawide, a 50 MP selfie snapper, and a 7,000 mAh battery with support for 80W wired charging.
