This $375 Android phone surprised the heck out of me

Tushar Mehta / Digital Trends “There’s plenty of fish in the sea.” Besides its usual romantic denotation, the idiom fits the segment of Android phones very well.

There will be an Android device for every (reasonable) permutation of specifications you can conceive. But, the Poco X6 Pro is unlike other fish in the sea. For its launch price of 350 euros (around $375 USD), the mid-ranger…

There are plenty of good flagships with excellent performance, bright and visually enticing screens, glamorous designs, and cameras that trick you into thinking they are as good as DSLRs. The Galaxy S series ticks most of those boxes, and the new Galaxy S24 Ultra doesn’t waver from the expectations set by its ancestors. With AI being the keyphrase of the Samsung Unpacked event…

OnePlus 12 vs. OnePlus 11: don’t make a mistake

OnePlus 12 (left) and OnePlus 11 Digital Trends Earlier this month, enthusiast brand OnePlus announced the OnePlus 12 — a new flagship for 2024 that builds on its success with the OnePlus 11, which came to the U.S. earlier this year. The OnePlus 11 impressed us with a true return to form for the brand, which we’d feared had lost its way after the middling OnePlus 10T release in the summer of 2022. With a refreshing and attractive new design combined with a top-notch camera system, cutting-edge CPU, and a much better…

OnePlus 12 vs. Google Pixel 8 Pro: did OnePlus beat Google?

With these features on board, the OnePlus 12 is expected to be pitted against the Pixel 8 and the Apple iPhone…

I’ve used the Nothing Phone 2. Here’s why you’ll love it

Andy Boxall/Digital Trends The Nothing Phone 2 is here, and we think it may be one of the most important smartphones to launch in 2023. It’s the sequel to the Nothing Phone 1, which didn’t really make it to the U.S., but this time it’s getting a full, proper, and highly anticipated launch. The Glyph lights that flash away on the back make a return, but it’s the design, software, and ergonomic alterations that are crucial to the new phone’s appeal. And believe me, there’s a lot of appeal here. We can’t go into full…
