Xiaomi Redmi Note 10 in for review

The Redmi Note 10 did not win over the voters in our weekly poll, its siblings proved quite a bit more popular. That said, plenty of people are closely following the phone as evident by our trending chart – the phone has been in the Top 3 for the last several days.

The Note 10 became available a few days ago, it starts at $200 for the base 4/64 GB model. There are also 4/128 GB and 6/128 GB versions topping out at $280. In India the prices range from INR 12,000 to INR 14,000 (though this is with a discount in effect).

iQOO Z3 appears on Geekbench ahead of March 25 launch

An unknown vivo smartphone bearing model designation V2073A and believed to be the iQOO Z3 was spotted on Google Play Console a few days ago with 6GB RAM. Now the same device has passed through Geekbench with 8GB RAM onboard.

The smartphone runs Android 11, and the motherboard section in the Geekbench listing mentions “lito”, which corresponds to the Snapdragon 765G SoC.

Geekbench doesn’t divulge any other specifications of the V2073A, but the Google Play Console revealed the smartphone will pack a FullHD+ screen, while 3C confirmed it will support 55W charging.

GSMArena labs: introducing our What is my phone tool

Some follow new phone launches closely and are able to recognize different models by minute details. Others can probably only name the brand of their phone. While we do enjoy examining phones under a microscope, we also try to serve the more casual users.

This is why we built the What is my phone tool. Open it in your phone’s browser and it will tell you what phone it is – then you can consult our detailed database of specifications, read our review and comments by other users, check related models and so on.

This is obviously not going to be much use to our regular readers, but it’s…

Black Shark 4 series will feature 6.67″ 144Hz AMOLED screen

The Black Shark 4 series is coming on March 23, which consists of a vanilla and a Pro model. Black Shark hasn’t detailed the specs of both smartphones yet, but earlier today, it confirmed that the Black Shark 4 lineup will feature a 6.67″ Samsung-made E4 AMOLED screen with a 144Hz refresh rate and a multi-finger touch sampling rate of 720Hz.

OnePlus 9R 5G teased with gaming triggers ahead of March 23 unveiling

A couple of days ago, OnePlus CEO Mr. Pete Lau revealed that the company will unveil the OnePlus 9R 5G on March 23 alongside the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro. OnePlus hasn’t detailed the 9R 5G yet, but its Indian branch posted an image on Twitter teasing the smartphone.

The picture includes a silhouette of the 9R 5G, and while it doesn’t reveal the phone in its entirety, you can clearly see its right side frame is home to the power button. The smartphone also appears to have two gaming triggers attached to it. That’s because OnePlus is focusing on mobile gaming with the 9R 5G.

iQOO Z3 with 5G support to launch on March 25

iQOO announced the iQOO Neo5 a few days ago, but it isn’t done unveiling new phones this month since Chinese retailer JD.com has revealed the vivo sub-brand will launch the iQOO Z3 on March 25 in China.

The listing on the Chinese retailer’s website doesn’t divulge anything about the iQOO Z3, but iQOO shared a poster a few days ago teasing a new 5G smartphone, and the same image is included in the JD.com listing, which confirms the Z3 will support next-gen networks. That’s hardly a surprise, though, since the Z1 also came with 5G connectivity.

There’s no word from iQOO about the Z3…
