This $400 budget gaming phone runs the same chip as the Nothing Phone 3

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR POCO has launched the POCO F7 globally today. The new phone offers a powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset and a 6,500mAh or 7,550mAh battery, depending on the region. Expect to pay a starting price of $399 or £389 for the POCO F7. The POCO F5 and POCO F6 were two of the best gaming phones on a budget as they offered powerful chips for the price. Now, the Xiaomi sub-brand is back with the POCO F7. The POCO F7 continues the trend of offering great perfo

I found a worthy Ring alternative in this video security camera (and it has no subscriptions)

ZDNET's key takeaways The Aqara Camera Hub G5 Pro is available for $180 for the Wi-Fi version and $200 for the PoE version. This indoor/outdoor security camera doubles as a smart home hub, features 1520p resolution for crystal-clear images, RTSP support, and has a built-in NPU to process video with AI for visual recognition. The camera is wired, so placement is limited, and there is no expandable storage, so you need a subscription to access video history or bypass it through video server soft

VSCO to launch ‘Capture,’ a standalone iPhone camera app with film-style filters

Visual Supply Co. is about to enter the increasingly competitive iPhone third-party camera app market. The company best known for VSCO: Photo Editor is launching a standalone camera app called Capture. Here’s what to expect. With Capture, VSCO joins an increasingly crowded space of third-party camera apps trying to rethink the iPhone shooting experience. Just last week, we covered Adobe’s release of Project Indigo, and how that added to great App Store options like Halide, all catering to user

F1 the Movie review: A shameless Apple ad that will blow your socks off

The first thing in F1 the Movie, before a single word of dialog is uttered, is a pair of AirPods Max. They're so comfortable, Brad Pitt's lovable loser protagonist Sonny Hayes is able to sleep with them all night, then hop up and begin his day of driving fancy race cars. If you paid $550 for the AirPods Max, you too could be like Brad Pitt! It's hard to ignore the blatant commercialism of F1 the Movie; you might as well call it a $300 million ad for Formula One everything Apple. The film is pro

OnePlus 15 leak shows why the Galaxy S26 series urgently needs silicon-carbon batteries

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR The OnePlus 15 will apparently have a 7,000mAh or higher battery. That means the upcoming phone could have a much bigger battery than the Galaxy S25 series. The phone is also tipped to arrive with a ‘SuperBlack’ color option that could make it look like a “black hole.” We thought the OnePlus 13 was one of the best Android phones of 2025, but OnePlus is undoubtedly hard at work on the follow-up. We’ve already seen a few apparent OnePlus 15 leaks, and it lo

Adobe Project Indigo is a new photo app from former Pixel camera engineers

Adobe launched its own take on how smartphone cameras should work this week with Project Indigo, a new iPhone camera app from some of the team behind the Pixel camera. The project combines the computational photography techniques that engineers Marc Levoy and Florian Kainz popularized at Google, with pro controls and new AI-powered features. In their announcement of the new app, Levoy and Kainz style Project Indigo as the better answer to typical smartphone camera complaints of limited controls

Why Danny Boyle shot ‘28 Years Later’ on iPhones

In Brief Director Danny Boyle famously shot his post-apocalyptic classic “28 Days Later” on Canon digital cameras, making it easier for him to capture eerie scenes of an abandoned London, and giving the movie’s fast-moving zombies a terrifying immediacy. To make his decades-later sequel “28 Years Later” (which opened this weekend), Boyle turned to a different piece of consumer tech — the iPhone. Boyle told Wired that by using a rig that could hold 20 iPhone Pro Max cameras, the filmmaking team

Israel urges citizens to turn off home cameras as Iran hacks surveillance systems

Cutting corners: As tensions between Israel and Iran escalate, Israeli authorities are urging citizens to take an unusual but crucial step: turn off their home security cameras or change their passwords. The warning comes amid growing evidence that Iran is actively attempting to tap into private surveillance devices across Israel to gather intelligence for military operations. In the aftermath of recent Iranian missile strikes on Tel Aviv, concerns about the vulnerability of internet-connected

I still keep a 6-year-old Android 10 phone in my back pocket — here’s why

Andy Walker / Android Authority I’ve been feeling quite nostalgic lately, especially for old camera phones. Last month, I praised the Nokia 9 PureView for its unique camera setup that makes every shot an adventure. I’ve also revisited the LG G4, a phone that sparked my love for photography. However, there’s one more older Android camera phone I still carry around whenever possible. In its prime, the HUAWEI P30 Pro was the best Android phone money could buy. Sure, that’s just my opinion, but pl

Nothing Phone 3 specs leak: Big upgrades incoming despite sub-flagship chip

The source of the leak is not very well known, but they seem to have a decent track record.

While the leak appears

Gear News This Week: Adobe Wants to Make iPhone Photos Better, and TCL Brings Flexibility to Atmos

The brains behind the computational photography that vaulted Google's Pixel phone camera to fame have a new camera app for you to try, this time from Adobe. Marc Levoy and Florian Kainz left Google several years ago, and Adobe's Project Indigo seems to be the fruit of their labor. Courtesy of Adobe The iPhone-only app is available on the App Store for the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max, iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max, plus iPhone 14 and newer. (It's free and doesn't require an Adobe account.) Like the c

Israel Says Iran Is Hacking Security Cameras for Spying

Amid Israeli airstrikes this week and the imminent threat of further escalations by the United States, Iran started severely limiting internet connectivity for its citizens, limiting Iranians' access to crucial information and intentionally pushing them toward domestic apps that may not be secure. Meanwhile, the Israel-tied hacking group known as Predatory Sparrow is waging cyberwar on Iran’s financial system, attacking Iran’s Sepah Bank and destroying more than $90 million in cryptocurrency hel

Wyze wants to keep prying eyes away from your cameras with this new feature

Wyze Wyze is rolling out a new program to make sure only you can see your home security cameras. In an announcement Tuesday about its new VerifiedView program, Wyze explained that it already uses "strong protections like password requirements, two-factor authentication, cloud security, encryption, tools to detect suspicious logins, and much more." Despite those efforts, though, the company has suffered several high-profile breaches that potentially let people look into strangers' homes. Also:

Why I recommend this budget Android phone to most people over Samsung and Google

ZDNET's key takeaways The Nothing Phone 3a Pro offers exceptional value at its $459 sale price. An improved design, camera stack, and charging speed round out this year's upgrades. The lack of wireless charging and IP rating is easy to shoulder, but not the lack of retail presence.

Galaxy Z Fold 7 renders reveal a major camera change hiding in plain sight

TL;DR Leaked Galaxy Z Fold 7 renders show that the phone will have a punch-hole camera on its folding screen. This would be a major change as Samsung has used an under-display camera since 2021’s Galaxy Z Fold 3. This means the Galaxy Z Fold 7 should take higher-quality selfies and videos with this camera. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to launch next month, and apparent renders were posted online yesterday. These images show an impressively thin foldable phone, but another change we

Apple wins Grand Prix at Cannes for ‘Shot on iPhone’ campaign

Apple’s famous “Shot on iPhone” ad series has just earned one of the advertising industry’s highest honors: the Grand Prix in the Creative Effectiveness Lions category at this year’s Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity.

This year marked the fourth consecutive year of growth in submissions for the category, up 6.5%

I Supercharged My iPhone Camera With Adobe's New Indigo App

The iPhone 16 Pro has already impressed us with its amazing image quality, comfortably holding its own against other top-end Android phones including the Galaxy S25 Ultra and Pixel 9 Pro. And while the default camera app makes it easy to take quick snaps, it lacks features that enthusiastic photographers need. But where Apple left a gap, Adobe has rushed to fill in. Enlarge Image The instant shutter allowed me to capture this bird at just the right moment. Andrew Lanxon/CNET Adobe's new camera

Apple built a custom camera using iPhone tech to shoot real F1 races

In a nutshell: Apple's latest motion picture, F1, is based on the Formula One World Championship – the highest level of racing in the world. Determined to make the film as authentic as possible, Apple aimed for unprecedented realism in its cinematography. Unfortunately, existing camera technology and strict league regulations didn't allow for the kind of footage the filmmakers envisioned. As a result, the team developed a custom, one-of-a-kind camera capable of capturing movie-quality POV shots

The Fairphone 6 leaks ahead of its rumored late June launch

The Fairphone 6 is widely expected to get an official unveiling in the next week but the leadup to the repairable smartphone’s launch has been leakier than a bad tap. In a new report from WinFuture , purported images of the Fairphone 6 show that it’ll feature two back covers: one for the main body covering the cameras, and a lower panel that can be easily removed by loosening a few visible screws. Doing so grants access to the battery, which WinFuture notes is not glued down, though swapping it

I Tried the Future of Smart Glasses at WWDC. They Weren't Made by Apple

On a bright sunny day in Cupertino, California, I crammed into my seat, unlocked my laptop, connected to Wi-Fi and checked in on Slack. Apple's WWDC keynote was about to begin. This time, however, I added a new step to my live event coverage routine. I plugged the Xreal One Pro glasses into my MacBook and activated the dimmer. They became my smart display-enabled sunglasses. For the next 2 hours, I covered Apple's announcements wearing Xreal's display glasses, and they worked better than I expe
