The Honor X70 to have a massive 8,300mAh battery with 80W charging
Live photos of the X70 have been shared by leakster Experience More, including one that shows the About screen. It shows a Snapdragon 6 Gen 4 chipset with 12GB of RAM and 256GB storage with MagicOS 9 out of the box. The display has 1,200 x 2,640px resolution and was previously reported as a 6.79' OLED.
The battery capacity is jaw-dropping at 8,300mAh. Honor is still using the 'Qinghai Lake' branding. Per the previous leak, the X70 will support 80W wired charging. Another leakster, Panda is very bald, claims that wireless charging will be available only on the version with 512GB storage and will work at 80W.

The other image shows the back of the Honor X70 (model number MTN-AN00). The phone reportedly measures only 7.7mm – quite an engineering feat given the battery size – and weighs 193g. Note that the version with wireless charging has a bit of extra bulk at 7.9mm thick and 199g weight.
The circular camera island is home to a 50MP camera with OIS, while the selfie camera is said to have an 8MP sensor. The white model is pictured here, but the phone will also be available in blue, black and red.
The Honor X70i launched back in April, however, the X70 launch time frame is still to be announced. The X60 series also featured Pro and GT models, but we haven't heard anything about similar models in the X70 series. Not yet, anyway.

Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic in for review
Michail, 11 July 2025 The Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic is the new middle ground in the Galaxy smartwatch series. It sits above the baseline Watch8 and borrows some features from the Galaxy Watch Ultra while still keeping its signature rotating bezel. There's nothing surprising inside the box, Samsung is giving you a magnetic wireless charging pad attached to a USB-C cable. Our review unit comes in Black, which has some contrasting stainless-steel elements, giving off a sharp and elegant look. It comes with the faux leather watch band, which is sadly proprietary, so you can't just swap out any old 20mm band like on the previous generations. Back to bezel. We definitely have a soft spot for physical control buttons and they just don't get better than a tactile knob like this. But there's more, Galaxy Watch8 Classic also borrows the Galaxy Watch Ultra's Quick button. It's remappable so you can assign it to all sorts of different features or shortcuts. Weirdly enough, the 46mm Watch8 Classic features a 1.32-inch AMOLED screen – the same size as the much smaller 40mm Galaxy Watch8. It's still protected by Sapphire Glass and maxes out at 3,000 nits which should be more than enough, even for bright outdoor use. Watch8 Classic gets the Exynos W1000 chip just like the vanilla and Ultra models, alongside 2GB RAM and 64GB storage. Samsung claims the 445mAh battery inside the Watch8 Classic should offer up to 40 hours with the Always-on Display (AoD) off and 30 hours with AoD on. We'll make sure to test these claims alongside the health and activity features in our detailed review.

Weekly poll results: the Nothing Phone (3) is a major misstep for the company
Some people hate the looks, others hate the price – there was very little love shown for the Nothing Phone (3) in last week's poll. The design is certainly divisive and is a major misstep from a company that is so laser-focused on innovative design. Nothing also got overly ambitious with the pricing – the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 and non-LTPO display on an $800/£800/€800/₹80,000 phone attracted a lot of criticism in the comments. And those aren't the only non-flagship features either. Plus, the small 5,150mAh battery feels like a waste of Si/C tech. It's not so bad in the US market where there are relatively few competing brands, but in Europe and especially in Asia, the Phone (3) is going to be a tough sell with these specs at this price. The price will fall, eventually, but the same goes for alternative models. While Nothing is a fairly new brand, Carl Pei is a veteran of the industry and was at OnePlus as the company navigated the change from cheap 'flagship killer' to more expensive (but still competitively priced) flagships. But now he and his team need to go back to the drawing board. Nothing Phone (3) 5G
