Xiaomi announced the XRING 01 smartphone processor yesterday, which is the company’s first custom smartphone chipset in years. The processor looks like an absolute beast, but there’s bad news if you want to buy a phone with this chip. Xiaomi confirmed to Android Authority that it “currently” doesn’t have plans to launch devices with XRING chips outside China: Regarding the Xiaomi XRING chipset, Xiaomi currently does not have plans to introduce Xiaomi XRING chips to the international market.

This newest beta release is our first look at Android 16’s biggest user-facing changes, including the Material 3 Expressive redesign. I’ve been using the Android 16 QPR1 Beta on my Pixel 9 Pro for the last couple of days, and so far, things are off to an excellent start.

I love foldable phones — flip phones, specifically. There’s something about the mix of nostalgia and portability that’s always made it so easy for me to go back to something like the Galaxy Z Flip whenever I’m between reviews. However, recommending a specific flip phone to someone curious about the form factor has always been tougher. It’s so easy to get caught up in the less flexible cameras, relatively small batteries, and somewhat limited durability that you’re never sure whether someone shou
