Greetings for the Week 5 summary. We have unveiled the outcomes of the battery life tests for the Galaxy S24 and Galaxy S24+. Surprisingly, the smaller phone outperformed its predecessor, while the Plus version did not fare as well as its previous model. The most likely reason for this is the higher resolution QHD+ display. Additionally, we have also reviewed Samsung’s One UI 6 and 6.1.
The Samsung Galaxy S24 is still in our review queue, but we have already conducted the battery test.
The Xiaomi 14 Ultra has appeared on Geekbench. The upcoming flagship is expected to feature a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 16GB of RAM and will run on Android 14.
HMD has announced the removal of the Nokia branding from its devices. All tablets, earbuds, and smartphones will now carry the HMD brand. There are rumors suggesting that we might see the first HMD-only phones at the MWC in Barcelona, from February 26 to the 29.
The Motorola G24 Power has been officially introduced, equipped with a Helio G85 chip and a 6,000mAh battery. It also features a 6.56-inch 90Hz HD+ LCD display. The 4/128GB model starts at INR8,999 ($110/€100) and will be available for sale on February 7.
The Realme 12 Pro duo has been announced, with both phones featuring a zoom camera. The Pro+ model stands out with the popular 64MP half-inch (1/2.0-inch) OV64B sensor behind a 3x 71mm zoom camera. The Realme 12 Pro+ is priced at INR29,999 ($360/€330) for the 8/128 GB version and is already available for purchase.
Finally, Nothing has confirmed the upcoming release of the Phone (2a). The Phone (2a) is expected to feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display with FHD+ resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate, Dimensity 7200 chipset paired with 8/12GB RAM and 128/256GB storage.
