Oppo K13x teased as a 'durable performer' ahead of launch
Sagar, 07 June 2025
Oppo launched the K13 in April in India, and "following the strong market performance" of the smartphone, the brand has decided to launch the K13x in the Asian country.
Oppo's Indian branch is teasing the K13x as a "durable performer," which is "designed for users who demand resilience and performance in equal measure."
The Chinese brand also said that the Oppo K13x is "engineered to support the dynamic needs of today's youth" and seamlessly balances strength, design, and practicality.

Furthermore, Oppo revealed that the K13x will come with a long-lasting battery, ultra-fast charging, and AI-powered camera features. It will be launched in India as a mid-range smartphone and will be sold through Flipkart. More details about it should surface soon.

No more room for legends: Galaxy S27 Ultra may drop the S Pen
Samsung removed the S Pen's Bluetooth features with the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and not a lot of people liked that approach. Apart from removing features that apparently "nobody used", this decision also raised questions if the S Pen will continue to lose its importance for the S Ultra models in the future. Now, a new rumor indicates the Galaxy S27 Ultra may be the beginning of the end for the S Pen. According to this new rumor, the dedicated slot for the S Pen may be removed from the body of Samsung's 2027 flagship. The S Pen started its existence with the Galaxy Note series. When Samsung decided to discontinue the Note models, the S Pen moved into the Galaxy S Ultra, which became somewhat of a mix between a Note and an S flagship. The slot for the stylus remained in the Galaxy S Ultra model for years after that. Now, tipster @Jukanlosreve is sharing a prediction from an unnamed leaker from China, who reportedly has a solid track record. The leaker reportedly speculates that Samsung may remove the built-in S Pen with the Galaxy S27 Ultra. A leaker with a solid track record in China speculated that Samsung would remove the built-in S Pen starting with the Galaxy S27 Ultra, citing the removal of S Pen support from the Z Fold 7 as evidence. — Jukan Choi (@Jukanlosreve) June 22, 2025 It's worth noting that this idea isn't entirely new. For example, Galaxy Z Fold models support the S Pen, but these models don't come with a dedicated S Pen slot. Also, the stylus is sold separately, and you can buy a case for it to store it alongside the device if you choose to do so. Presumably, a similar approach may be taken by the company for the Galaxy S27 Ultra and its S Pen. And maybe, not too long after that, the S Pen may be gone, if there aren't people interested in it anymore, I guess. The focus right now is on slim phones. And slim comes at a cost. For one, rumors about the Galaxy Z Fold 7 missing the S Pen digitizer to become slimmer have circulated for months online now. It's still not confirmed, but to get a device as slim as possible, you have no choice at one point than to start removing things. Nevertheless, it's way too early to know for certain whether the Galaxy S27 Ultra will come with an S Pen or not. Let's first see what Galaxy Z Fold 7 will offer - the foldable is expected to be unveiled sometime at the beginning of next month. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Apple will reportedly use this tool inside the iPhone 17 Pro models to beat the heat
If you believe that where there's smoke there's fire, it probably means a lot that at the start of this year, we told you about another report stating that Apple would be adding a vapor chamber to keep the internals of the iPhone 17 series nice and cool thus preventing the A19 and A19 Pro application processors (APs) from causing the phones to overheat. Tipster Majin Bu has yet another vapor chamber rumor to tell us about and we will get to that in a second. First, you should know that currently, Apple uses Graphene sheets to draw heat away from the A18/A18 Pro chipsets on the iPhone 16 series and move it toward cooler parts of the phone. Apple also replaced the foil covering the batteries powering the iPhone 15 line with a metal covering for the cells used to power the iPhone 16 series. This is another way to draw heat away from the battery and spread it out through the inside of the phone. Apple also tends to rely on the metal and glass body of the phone itself to cool it down internally. A thermal plate using a copper surface could be used to distribute heat inside the iPhone 17 line. | Image credit-Majin Bu The latest rumor, again, this one from tipster Majin Bu, claims that the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max will each use a vapor chamber which is a small sealed metallic plate or chamber with a small amount of liquid inside it. When the device heats up, the liquid in the chamber evaporates. The vapor moves across the device returning to a liquid state when it is cooler inside the phone. This constant cycle allows temperatures to drop quickly allowing the device to cool down without having to resort to throttling the performance of the chipsets. Majin Bu, who has a mixed record when it comes to accuracy, says that the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max both face a higher degree of thermal issues. That's because the two models feature a more advanced and powerful application processor and display features. The non Pro models, the iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Air, will use traditional methods to dissipate the heat. If the vapor chamber does its job, users should notice the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max remaining cool to the touch even during extended use. For example, a long video game playing session would typically heat up an iPhone. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

New report says Huawei is not as close to challenging U.S. chip designers as it claimed
Last month there seemed to be some excitement surrounding Huawei as its Mate Book Fold laptop was reportedly powered by a 5nm Kirin X90 processor. Huawei and the foundry it uses these days, China's SMIC, aren't allowed to obtain Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) lithography machines thanks to U.S. and Dutch sanctions. These machines are used to print extremely thin circuitry patterns on the silicon wafers that chips are built on top of. EUV lithography is needed to produce chips using a 5nm process node and lower. Originally, it was thought that Huawei and SMIC were able to build 5nm chips by using older Deep Ultraviolet (DUV) lithography machines that are not covered by sanctions. By using multiple impressions with a DUV machine, SMIC tries to print features at a size smaller than they would come out at with a single DUV impression. The problem is that this technique is incredibly difficult to pull off resulting in low yields which hike the price of the components produced this way. As it turns out, the Kirin X90 wasn't built using a 5nm SMIC process node (N+3) after all. New reports say that the Kirin X90 was produced using SMIC's 7nm process node (N+2) after all. That is the same process node used by SMIC to build the 7nm Kirin 9020 application processor (AP) which debuted on last year's Mate 70 series smartphones. This new information certainly makes comments made recently by Huwaei CEO Ren Zhengfei look suspect. Talking to state-run People's Daily , the executive said, "Our single chip is still behind the U.S. by a generation. We use mathematics to supplement physics, non-Moore's law to supplement Moore's law, and cluster computing to supplement single chips, and the results can also achieve practical conditions. Software is not a bottleneck for us." If the Kirin X90 is made using a 7nm node and not a 5nm node as first believed, Huawei and SMIC would be two generations behind the U.S. right now. Next year, when we see Apple's iPhone 18 line powered by 2nm APs designed by Apple, that would extend the advantage over Huawei by another generation. The only thing that will help Huawei is an EUV alternative and while there are always rumors that Huawei is working on such a thing, for now, the company has a large gap that it can't seem to close.
