vivo X70 Pro+ in for review

vivo X70 Pro+ in for review The vivo X70 Pro+ that was announced earlier last month in China and debuted globally a few days ago has landed at our office for a review. We’ve received the international model, which is offered in a single Enigma Black color, unlike its Chinese counterpart that comes in Orange and Blue shades as well, flaunting vegan leather backs.

The X70 Pro+ comes in a square-shaped retail box which feels quite premium thanks to the leather-like finish. Inside it is the 55W charger, USB-C cable, USB-C earphones, 3.5mm headphone jack adapter, a protective case, SIM ejector tool, and the usual…

Weekly poll results: a high refresh rate screen is a must for nearly half of users

Weekly poll results: a high refresh rate screen is a must for nearly half of users Smartphone makers must be ready for the high refresh rate future because last week’s poll shows that 4 out of 5 people consider it a desirable feature for their next phone.

Shure AONIC 215 True Wireless Gen 2 review

Shure AONIC 215 True Wireless Gen 2 review The AONIC 215 True Wireless Gen 2 are Shure’s newest true wireless earbuds.
