The Asus Zenfone 8 measures 148×68.5×8.9 mm and weighs 169g. While not as small as the iPhone 12 mini, it is smaller than the Xperia 5 III (157 x 68 x 8.2 mm, 168g). And just like it, it is powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset, which runs Android 11 with ZenUI 8 (which Asus describes as a “mindful improvement…

The XM4 buds are a major redesign and look more compact than the current XM3 model. Their charging case is smaller as well (especially in the vertical direction). The “target” decal is shared between both color options and so is the metallic finish.
As mentioned yesterday, there will be upgrades to the battery system. Each bud in the WF-1000XM will be charged at…

Apple iPad Pro 12.9 (2021) runs laps around the competition in Geekbench 
Apple’s new M1-powered iPad Pro 11 (2021) and 12.9 (2021) will come out in a couple of weeks, but the first Geekbench results are already out – and they are quite impressive. The benchmark was run on an iPad 12.9 Pro (2021) with 16 GB of RAM.

Looking over at the top chipsets available for Android shows that Apple has a massive lead. We’ve…
