Amazon has the brand-new Motorola Razr+ (2025) foldable on sale at an astounding discount
There aren't a lot of guarantees in life, but in addition to selling at very reasonable prices at launch (every single time), Motorola's Razr and Edge-series handsets are frequently discounted shortly after their US commercial releases to become even harder to beat in terms of their bang for your buck. Right now, for instance, the Razr+ (2025) foldable is marked down by a staggering 300 bucks from a list price of $999.99, and as the name suggests, this is a brand-new high-end model with a decidedly premium and sophisticated design, as well as some pretty impressive specs (especially for that freshly reduced price).
5G, Unlocked, 256GB Storage, 12GB RAM, 6.9-Inch Foldable LTPO AMOLED Display with 2640 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 4-Inch LTPO AMOLED Cover Screen with 1272 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 165Hz Refresh Rate Support, IP48 Water and Dust Resistance, Titanium-Reinforced Hinge, 50 + 50MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 32MP Front-Facing Camera, 4,000mAh Battery, 45W Wired and 15W Wireless Charging Capabilities, Hot Pink Color Buy at Amazon
We're talking not just a large, sharp, and smooth 6.9-inch foldable display with a resolution of 2640 x 1080 pixels and 165Hz refresh rate technology and a powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor under the hood, but also a generously sized 4-inch cover screen with ultra-advanced 165Hz refresh rate support of its own and a hefty 12GB RAM count paired with a respectable 256 gigs of internal storage space. That secondary screen is considerably larger than what the "regular" Razr (2025) offers in the same department, which is notable because the Razr+ (2025) is now just as affordable as its humbler brother. That Plus moniker, of course, is justified by a number of other advantages as well, including a snappier processor, more memory, better rear-facing dual camera system, and faster charging. At $300 under its regular price, this bad boy might just be the best foldable you can buy at the time of this writing... as long as you're okay with a slightly slower chipset than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 powering the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Motorola's generally poorer long-term software support compared to Samsung.
The Razr Plus (2025), mind you, is massively discounted only by Amazon in a single love-it-or-hate-it "Hot Pink" colorway, which almost certainly means that you don't have a lot of time to act before the price point inevitably goes back up to $999.99.

Amazon's super-expensive Kindle Scribe (2024) is on sale at a new record high discount
Typically available for a whopping $399.99 and up, the 2024-released Kindle Scribe is hard to consider a smarter purchase than some of the best tablets frequently priced at a similar level. But what if you could save a cool hundred bucks on Amazon's latest high-end e-reader capable of taking beautifully handwritten notes? While that obviously doesn't change the fact that you're not looking at a full-blown tablet here, the unprecedented discount certainly maximizes the value proposition of a device that had a very specific (and generally very devoted) target audience to begin with. E-Book Reader with 16GB Storage, 2024 Release, 10.2-Inch Glare-Free Display with 300 ppi resolution, Uniform White Borders, Built-in AI-Powered Notebook, Active Canvas, Up to 12 Weeks of Battery Life, Adjustable Warm Light, Auto-Adjusting Front Light Sensor, Flush-Front Design, USB-C Port, Tungsten Color, Premium Pen Included Buy at Amazon Keep in mind that this is the second Kindle Scribe edition, and unlike its 2022 predecessor, the 2024 model comes bundled with a "Premium Pen" as standard. Amazon remarkably slashes $100 off the list prices of all three available storage variants, starting with the 16GB one that normally costs four Benjamins and going up to a 64GB configuration typically setting you back $449.99. Apart from the aforementioned "premium" stylus, which comes equipped with a customizable shortcut button and soft-tipped eraser while not requiring charging or setup, the key selling point and major strength over the greatest Android tablets money can buy in 2025 has to be the epic 12-week battery life rating. Of course, that staggering number can only be achieved in certain usage conditions, but whatever you do, however many books you read, and notes you take on the Kindle Scribe (2024), you should still be able to squeeze one or two weeks of endurance out of this bad boy with minimal effort. The 10.2-inch display is also pretty spectacular (at least by conventional e-book reader standards), rocking 300 ppi resolution and uniform white borders while sitting perfectly flush with the rest of the Kindle Scribe's design to look more like a high-end tablet at a first glance than a product generally viewed as more "rudimentary."

Analyst says Apple may rebrand Siri at WWDC to dodge AI backlash
In mere hours, Apple's big WWDC conference keynote will start. In a last-minute leak, reputable analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has some surprising information to share about the event. According to Kuo, the much-anticipated transparent redesign (referred to as "Liquid Glass" by Mark Gurman) will take a secondary role during the keynote. Gurman earlier claimed that Apple will use the new "Liquid Glass" look to distract from the failure to give us the context-aware Siri it promised last year. However, Kuo now claims Apple will indeed give some attention to AI, despite Gurman believing the Cupertino tech giant won't talk too much about it. Kuo claims that Apple's on-device AI focus could include a rebranding of Apple Intelligence and Siri and demonstrations of AI being integrated across the OS for a next-level user experience. Also, the analyst believes Apple will offer tools for third-party developers to incorporate AI in their apps. Three Key Points to Watch at Apple WWDC 20251. Apple's AI strategy takes center stage, with updates like UI changes and OS improvements playing a secondary role. 2. No major breakthroughs in Apple's AI technology are expected. Still, with the market's limited expectations,… — 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) June 9, 2025 Kuo also expects Apple to underline partnerships with other AI services. This could be related to a reported partnership between Apple and Google in order to make Gemini an optional Siri extension. Nevertheless, Kuo's predictions raise some interesting questions. One wonders if Apple rebrands Siri and Apple Intelligence , won't that be considered an acknowledgment that its AI strategy has failed? There's some skepticism about this, to me, it seems more likely for Apple to pretend the failure never happened and focus on the new design, rather than continue talking about AI. As for the expected redesign, rumor has it Apple has taken inspiration from visionOS, its OS for Vision Pro, and may have plenty of elements transparent across iOS. It is said the new looks will apply to all OSes by Apple, including iPadOS and macOS. Anyway, we'll know for certain quite soon, as the WWDC 2025 keynote starts today, June 9, at 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time. We also expect the new iOS and iPadOS to be rebranded and carry the new number 26: to become iOS 26 and iPadOS 26, respectively.

Oppo A5i and A5i Pro launch with Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1, Pro has 6,000mAh Si/C battery
Oppo quietly launched A5i and A5i Pro, though they are not entirely novel designs. Both are based on the Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1, which is a rebrand of the Snapdragon 662. The same chip was used in the Oppo A5 Pro 4G, which shares many similarities with these two new models. Both A5i phones feature 6.67' LCD displays with HD+ resolution and 90Hz refresh rate. They can reach 1,000 nits of brightness. Outdoor visibility is further helped by the anti-glare coating. The Pro also has a 6.67' LCD (HD+, 90Hz), but it is a higher quality IPS panel. The Oppo A5i and A5i Pro have 6.67' HD+ 90Hz LCDs The front and back are protected by China Southern Glass and Panda Glass. Oppo lists both as 'twice reinforced' and the phones have undergone MIL-STD-810H testing and got a certification from SGS. However, ingress protection on the A5i is pretty basic with an IP54 rating. The Pro model is a bit better at IP65. Both phones support wet touch. The A5i is powered by a 5,100mAh battery, which promises to retain at least 80% of its capacity after four years of use. The phone supports 45W fast charging. Vanilla A5i: 5,100mAh battery • 45W charging If you want more juice, the Pro has a larger 6,000mAh Si/C battery (still with 45W charging). The bigger battery makes the Pro a bit thicker and heavier, but not by much – it's 7.68mm/186g for the vanilla and 7.99mm/193g for the Pro. The differences between vanilla and Pro models continue. The vanilla model has a very basic 8MP main camera on the back, the front houses a 5MP module. Both are limited to 1080p @ 30fps video recording. The Oppo A5i Pro has better ingress protection and a bigger 6,000mAh battery. The Oppo A5i Pro stands out with a 50MP rear camera with a wider aperture (f/1.85 vs. f/2.0), but the front module is still only a 5MP camera. There's a secondary module on the back and since its function is not listed, we're assuming a depth sensor. While both phones are powered by the Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1 – an old 11nm design with Cortex-A73 and A53 CPU cores plus an Adreno 610 GPU – there will be a small performance difference between them. The Pro model has 8GB of LPDDR4X RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.1 storage. The vanilla model has less RAM, 4/6GB of LPDDR4X, and 64/128GB of slower eMMC 5.1 storage. Snapdragon 6s 4G Gen 1 • 8MP rear camera for the vanilla A5i As the chipset's name suggests, it only supports 4G LTE networking. Local connections are handled with dual-band Wi-Fi 5 (ac) and Bluetooth with aptX. The vanilla model also has a 3.5mm headphone jack, the Pro doesn't, but it does have NFC and an IR blaster. Finally, both phones have a side-mounted fingerprint reader. The Oppo A5i Pro is available in the Philippines – right now, it's exclusively sold through Shopee, but starting on June 20 it will also be available from Oppo's TikTok shop and Lazada. The Pro is priced at PHP 9,000, which converts to $160/€140/₹14,000. Oppo A5i in Starry Purple and Nebula Red • Oppo A5i Pro in Midnight Purple We haven't found Oppo A5i in stores just yet.
