Leica's SL family has always been the most "mirrorless" looking of its cameras, offering pro photographers handling that's similar to rivals like Canon and Sony. That continues with the launch of the SL3, a 60-megapixel (MP) model that looks nothing like its famous rangefinder cameras, offering a new phase-detect autofocus system, 8K video capability and more.The new model has the same sensor as the M11 rangefinder and Q3 compact models, but very much resembles the SL2 and tips the scale at a hefty 767 grams. It's also…

Sick of bloatware? The upcoming Realme Narzo 70 Pro will have fewer pre-installed apps – to put a specific number on it, there will be 65% fewer pre-installed apps. In fact, this is such an important feature that Amazon India’s landing page for the phone advertises it at the very top. We hate bloatware and we know that you do too. Realme has listened to users and is making an attempt to cut that back. Additionally, Amazon and the Narzo team polled users and found that the Sony IMX890 is one of the most wished-for…
