Last year, OnePlus brought out its Pad 2 tablet that impressed us a lot with its large display and its overall premium nature. Of course, it couldn’t compete with Apple’s iPads, but it gave other high-end tablets, especially Samsung’s, a good run for their money. This year, that tablet has received a successor in the form of the OnePlus Pad 3, which looks like an attempt to refine the device’s core strengths and dial them up to eleven. With a sharp new display, a ridiculously large battery, and the might of the Snapdragon 8 Elite, the Pad 3 positions itself…

In the flagship smartphone space, competition is hard to keep up with. And it’s this daily grind that leads to some of the most peculiar products out there. Think about it! At no point over the last few years has there been a big demand for an extremely thin Galaxy flagship. Yet, with the threat of the iPhone 17 Air looming in the foreground, Samsung just had to make the first move. The result of this move is the Galaxy S25 Edge, the thinnest Galaxy S smartphone ever. Some extreme engineering has gone into achieving this thickness, although this also…

The Galaxy S25 Edge occupies a unique place in Samsung’s flagship lineup that, by the end of the year, should include a total of five phones, if the launch of the S25 FE goes according to plan.

Its price? A good Rs. 1,09,999. Amidst all this, the mind still wonders what compromises have been made to achieve this thin profile. We’ll find that out in our full review…

India’s automotive landscape has evolved dramatically in the past few decades, with sleeker, smarter, and safer vehicles becoming the norm.

Seldom does a phone launched under Rs 20,000 generate such buzz. The CMF Phone 2 Pro adheres to Nothing’s disruptive tendencies by continuing with the modular design approach. Under the hood, it brings a number of upgrades over its predecessor, although I’m not sure why the makers chose to add a ‘Pro’ to its moniker. Its processor is a modest update on paper, and its camera cluster, although tripartite, looks like a standard affair. But let’s go beyond first impressions and give it the good old review treatment. Design That Nothing does rear surfaces differently is no secret. While devices…

It’s built for real underwater action, with a 300m water-resistance rating and a rubberised rotating bezel for that essential grip,…

With the Digital Personal Data Protection Act (DPDPA) looming large on the compliance horizon, Indian car dealerships are heading into uncharted territory. The traditional way of operating, with fragmented, often paper-based data, manual records, and unsecured spreadsheets, simply won’t cut it anymore.

Once the DPDPA kicks in, mishandling any of this could lead to serious legal and financial consequences. Readywire’s Pitch Enter Readywire, a cloud-based ERP solution tailored for the auto retail sector. They currently face no direct competition in…
