The OnePlus Pad 3 Is a Flagship Android Tablet. Did We Need It?
Photograph: Julian Chokkattu Mind you, I still would never be able to completely replace my laptop or desktop PC with a tablet, OnePlus Pad 3 or not. There are just some things that don't work so well in specific apps, or just take a little longer in the tablet interface. (Our content management system, Airtable, has a notoriously bad tablet experience.) But for short stints at the airport or coffee shop, it's a nice alternative to lugging around a heavier machine. The keyboard is a must-have if you're spending this much on a tablet. There's decent key travel, and I enjoyed typing on it, and the trackpad is a nice size. The best feature is that you can use it attached to the OnePlus Pad 3 via the pogo pins, or it will auto-connect to the tablet via Bluetooth, so you can use it detached. That's helpful because, while you can use the OnePlus Pad 3 and the keyboard in your lap, it's not the most stable experience, so it's nice having the ability to detach and place the screen somewhere else (and prop it up with the case's kickstand). The keyboard doesn't have a USB-C port, so you can only charge it by connecting it back to the tablet. It does have NFC, so you can tap your OnePlus phone to send files, and there's a dedicated key to trigger Google's Gemini AI assistant. Speaking of accessories, there's the OnePlus Stylo 2, which hasn't seen any changes since it debuted with the OnePlus Pad 2. It's a reliable stylus and magnetically connects to the top edge of the slate, where it auto-connects and recharges. I'm not much of a stylus person, so I haven't used it much. It's worth keeping in mind that while these accessories are separate purchases, OnePlus routinely has bundles that let you snag the stylus or the keyboard case for free. There's a promo through July 7 that lets you get both for free with a purchase of the Pad 3. Photograph: Julian Chokkattu Photograph: Julian Chokkattu The battery hasn't given me any qualms. The 12,140-mAh capacity is the largest OnePlus has ever shipped, and after several hours of using three apps simultaneously in Open Canvas mode, the battery only dipped 20 percent. That'll obviously spike if you're, say, binge watching a show for several hours, but I feel comfortable saying that this battery will satisfy most. It also barely loses juice in standby mode. OnePlus throws in its fast charger in the box, so you can get a full charge from zero to 100 in 92 minutes. Upscale Tablet, Upscale Price This is all driven by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, the flagship Android processor of 2025. OnePlus will happily tell you this is the first tablet to debut with the chip in the US, and it certainly delivers fantastic performance all around. OnePlus is trying to offer a 'premium' tablet experience here in North America, where it says there are limited options. It's not wrong: You have historically only had Samsung and Apple to choose from if you want a top-of-the-line tablet. Photograph: Julian Chokkattu

Samsung loses exclusivity over overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite, thanks to this phone
Supplied by REDMAGIC TL;DR REDMAGIC has announced the REDMAGIC 10S Pro gaming phone. This is the first non-Samsung phone to feature an overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, but it also has a cooling fan. The new phone starts at $699 and is broadly available via the company's website. The Samsung Galaxy S25 phones use the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset, which is an overclocked version of the flagship processor. Now, the first non-Samsung phone has arrived with an overclocked Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, and it might be the performance king of 2025. REDMAGIC has announced the REDMAGIC 10S Pro, and it indeed has the so-called Snapdragon 8 Elite Leading Version processor. This offers a peak CPU clock speed of 4.47GHz and a peak GPU frequency of 1.2GHz. By contrast, the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite chip tops out at 4.32GHz and 1.1GHz, respectively. Our own testing previously showed that several phones with the standard Snapdragon 8 Elite processor overheated during GPU stress tests. Fortunately, REDMAGIC's new phone offers a cooling fan (24,000RPM) to keep temperatures down. But even the presence of a fan wasn't enough to stop the earlier REDMAGIC 10 Pro from severely throttling and delivering sky-high temperatures. So I'm not feeling optimistic about the 10S Pro's sustained performance under heavy load. Nevertheless, you still have other cooling measures like a large vapor chamber and 'Liquid Metal 2.0' tech. REDMAGIC 10S Pro: What else does it have? Supplied by REDMAGIC The gaming-related features don't end here. You can also expect capacitive shoulder triggers, RGB lighting, and a so-called Magic Key that takes you to the GameSpace menu by default. Thankfully, this button can be customized for other tasks. The REDMAGIC 10S Pro also offers a 7,050mAh battery, which should deliver long endurance on paper for your gaming sessions. This is paired with 80W wired charging via a bundled charger. Just don't expect wireless charging here. Other notable features include a 6.85-inch 144Hz OLED screen (1.5K) with a 16MP under-display selfie camera, a 50MP+50MP+2MP triple rear camera system, an IR blaster, and REDMAGIC OS 10.5 atop Android 15. A closer look at the phone also reveals the welcome presence of a headphone jack. REDMAGIC 10S Pro pricing and availability The good news is that this gaming phone will be available in a variety of markets, including the US, via the REDMAGIC website. Other notable locales include Asia-Pacific markets, Europe, the Middle East, and the UK. The REDMAGIC 10S Pro starts at $699 / £579 / €649 for the base 12GB/256GB model. Meanwhile, the top-end 24GB/1TB model costs $999 / £879 / €999. REDMAGIC added that it's also offering early bird pricing of $649 from June 17. Got a tip? Talk to us!

Mixus AI Agent Tool Includes Human Intervention
is a collaborative artificial intelligence platform that incorporate human participation to ... More help ensure accuracy of results. In the world of artificial intelligence, when the technology spits out inaccurate information, instead of calling it what it is, a screw up, the industry invented a softer euphemism—hallucination. Those hallucinations have the potential of causing physical or financial harm, or at the least, a major embarrassment. But a months-old startup called has added a very analog backstop to catching errors before they do any harm—the human brain. Indeed, its name is a portmanteau of mix and us, meaning blending artificial with human intelligence to help ensure accuracy. The simple explanation is when a user makes an AI query, in addition to a AI-generated response also recommends people who have expertise, experience or knowledge on the specific topic. The user can then add those recommended people into their chat and converse with them and AI together. Building on that original model, has now added an even more powerful tool it calls 'colleague in the loop' AI agents, which can conduct a vast array of tasks such as generating social media posts, emails or lists, to name a few. The twist is, the content goes nowhere until trusted human beings in a user's network act as editors and fact-checkers. co-creators Shai Magzimof (left) and Elliot Katz. 'By bringing colleagues into the loop, you get the full power of AI agents, the efficiency and the time savings, etc, without the any of that downside risk of AI mistakes going undetected,' explained Elliot Katz, who co-founded with Shai Magzimof. Creating AI agents on mixus does not require any sort of coding or programming knowledge, just the ability to read and write. 'The beauty of this is someone who's never used AI, someone who doesn't even know what an AI agent is, you can create, can build and use agents on mixus,' declared Katz, in an interview. In the video below, Katz demonstrates how a colleague in the loop AI agent is created in mixus. There's no shortage of examples of the volume of AI hallucinations causing companies and individuals to swoon from their effects. A report released in April by OpenAI, which operates the popular ChatGPT platform, revealed its o3 model hallucinated over 50% of the time, meaning every other answer was incorrect. And OpenAI's o4-mini model performed even worse: nearly four out of five responses were wrong, meaning it fabricated answers nearly 80% of the time. A very recent example occurred just last month when a summer reading list written by a syndicated freelance writer using AI appeared in such major market newspapers as the Chicago Sun-Times and Philadelphia Inquirer. As reported in the Sun-Times, the writer admitted he never double-checked the results of his AI search which was incredibly unfortunate because several of the book titles in the list never actually existed, making the AI-generated summaries equally false. Katz contends it's an example of a situation that could have been prevented by use of the colleague in the loop system. 'They could be using mixus, and they could have rules that are brought out through mixus, that say, before you publish anything, you have to have your editor or a colleague or multiple colleagues press that verify button, meaning they've actually reviewed they know that what the AI put out is real and not total slop, etc,' Katz said. Investors are backing the playbook. The company just closed its $2.6 million pre-seed funding round which included participation by Liquid 2, former NFL star quarterback Joe Montana's venture capital firm. Access to is by subscription. The company offers a free, 14-day trial to individuals using a business or personal email address. After that period, anyone who wants to continue as a user will need to contact mixus for 'custom pricing,' according to Katz. Since launching late last year, has changed its business model from B to C, targeting consumers, to now targeting businesses, for which, errors can be more consequential according to Katz. That doesn't mean individuals who are self-employed or are freelancers can't sign up. They just can't do so alone. It's all based on maintaining the collaborative nature of the site. 'You have to sign up with four other people, because that's key. We want colleagues in the loop,' said Katz. 'We are working with businesses that want to deploy AI in an AI agents in a way that they don't have to deal with these undetected AI mistakes.' You can listen or watch the entire interview with Elliot Katz and an extended demonstration of the colleague in the loop AI agent creation tool in the author's podcast Tales From the Beat.
