Weekly poll results: the vanilla Redmi Note 14 emerges as the unlikely victor

Well, here’s a surprise – last week’s poll revealed which is the best-liked model in the Redmi Note 14 series and it isn’t the Pro+ with its fancy curved display and 200MP camera. No, that one came in second. The most preferred of the series is actually the vanilla Redmi Note 14 5G. Yes, specifically the 5G model – while a few like the Redmi Note 14 4G, both it and the Redmi Note 14 Pro 4G proved to be a lot less popular than their 5G siblings. Maybe this is a sign for Xiaomi to simplify the product line and only offer 5G phones going forward. Looking at the series as a whole,...

Instagram wants to lure TikTok refugees with new Reels features

Earlier today the US Supreme Court upheld the law that will ban TikTok in the US unless it sells by January 19. With the deadline fast approaching and no deal in sight, the app has promised to fully shut down on Sunday in the US even though the law doesn't actually compel it to (it only requires Google and Apple to remove TikTok from their app stores). TikTok's competitors are obviously very happy about that app's possible demise in the US, and so today Instagram announced two new features for Reels, its TikTok clone. You can now discover the reels your friends are liking or adding...

Realme GT 7 possibly certified with very similar specs to the GT 7 Pro

A Realme smartphone bearing the model number RMX5090 has been certified in China by 3C, and this could be the non-Pro GT 7 according to some rumors. The GT 7 Pro launched in November and now it looks like its lesser sibling could be ready to join it soon. The certification reveals that the GT 7 has support for 120W wired charging as well as support for 5G. Neither of those things is surprising given the GT line's positioning in Realme's portfolio as the flagship series, but it's good to have confirmation nevertheless. A previous TENAA certification revealed that the GT 7 will...
