Motorola G9 Power in for review

Motorola’s midrange Moto G lineup has always offered competitive specs, clean software and decent battery endurance at an attractive price. The latest member of the lineup to come in our hands is the Moto G9 Power and it brings several improvements over its predecessor but somewhat questionable display resolution and camera choices.

The new phone includes a larger and befitting its Power naming 6,000 mAh battery (largest yet on a Motorola) with 20W charging, as well as a new 64MP main camera compared to the 16MP shooter found on the Moto G8 Power. Then we get to the screen, it grew from 6.4” to 6.8” but the resolution went in the opposite direction from FHD+ on the G8 Power to HD+ on the G9 Power. We'll have to check how easy it is to live with that downgrade.

Jumping around the back and another question mark arises. The G8 Power had an 8MP telephoto module and 8MP ultrawide snapper which are replaced by a pair of 2MP macro cam and 2MP depth sensor on the G9 Power. Why was this change needed? Go figure.

At least you get double the storage on the G9 Power with 128GB while RAM is still capped at 4GB backed by the Snapdragon 662 chipset. The software side is covered by good old Android 10 with Motorola’s My UX on top. The Moto G9 Power is an odd device, but we’ll have our review team decide its verdict so stay tuned for the full review.

vivo iQOO 7 Legend

vivo iQOO 7 Legend Introduction and specs Vivo decided to launch some of its gaming-oriented iQOO phones globally this year, with the iQOO 7 Legend representing the Chinese vanilla iQOO 7 while the global iQOO 7 stands for the iQOO Neo5. The subject of this hands-on review is the Legend. And the latter gives you pretty much everything you'd want from a gaming smartphone. An HRR OLED panel is at hand, ticking at 120Hz, and all those pixels are powered by the Snapdragon 888 chipset. And for a complete multimedia experience, the phone features a set of loud stereo speakers, too. Sadly, no 3.5mm audio jack, which is somewhat still a standard for gaming devices. vivo iQOO 7 Legend specs at a glance: Body: 162.2x75.8x8.7mm, 210g; Glass front and back, metal frame.

Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6

Huawei MatePad Pro 12.6 Introduction You are going to hear that it's a new dawn for Huawei thanks to the first public release of HarmonyOS. And the new MatePad tablets are supposed to usher Huawei's products into a Harmony era and drop Android for good. But underneath all this PR talk everything boils down to one thing - can Harmony-operated devices rival Android's and Apple's? We have the MediaPad Pro 12.6 for a review today, and that's what we are going to try and find out. Just because Apple is dominating the tablet market with its iPads, it doesn't mean the competition should disappear. On the contrary, we'd love to see more slates like the Galaxy Tab S7 trio and the newly announced MatePad series. The tablet market might appear as a niche one, but it leads to some incredible UI advancements and some of those inevitably make their way onto phones, too. And today we are thrilled to meet a new large tablet with stylus support and a (supposedly) brand new...

Oppo Band Style Review

Oppo Band Style Review Oppo is mainly known as a smartphone brand, but the company's product portfolio includes wireless earphones, smart TVs, and smartwatches as well. Oppo also launched its first smartband last year, called the Oppo Band, followed by a facelift version called the Oppo Band Style. The Oppo Band Style is basically the regular Band coming with an extra strap in the box, with the rest of its highlights including an AMOLED panel, real-time heart rate monitoring, and the usual set of features you find on any other fitness band in this price range. Alongside the extra strap, the feature that sets the Band Style apart from most other wearables in its category is the continuous SpO2 monitoring. But is that enough to make it a worthy buy? We try to find that out with this review. Oppo Band Style specifications Display: 1.1", 126x294 pixel AMOLED color touchscreen, 2.5D Curved Glass, 100% DCI-P3 gamut Straps: Detachable straps, 14mm width, 130-205mm ...
