Realme has just announced the launch of its new mid-range, the Realme 16 5G. It is a device that seeks to gain a foothold in the most popular (and competitive) segment of telephony with two great weapons: design and battery. And it doesn’t seem to be any secret: Realme has been inspired quite clearly by the Apple iPhone Air and in the Google Pixel most recent. The company has opted for a higher plateau where it has housed the cameras and, curiously, a small mirror so that our subject can “look”, in quotes, and position himself better. A terminal that will not go unnoticed and that we will get to know better right away. Realme 16 5G technical sheet realme 16 5g dimensions and weight 158.3 x 75.1 x 8.1mm 183 grams screen 6.57 inch FOLED FullHD+ resolution (2,372 x 1,080 pixels) 397 dpi Refresh rate: 120 Hz PWM: 2,160Hz Normal brightness: 1,000 nits Maximum brightness: 1,400 nits Peak brightness: 4,200 nits 100% DCI-P3 processor MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Turbo Mali-G57 MC2 ram memory 8GB LPDDR4x internal storage 256GB UFS 2.2 rear camera Wide angle: 50 MP f/1.8, FOV 75º Monochrome: 2 MP, f/2.4, FOV 88º FHD Video@30 FPS front camera 50 MP, f/2.4, FOV 86º FHD Video@60 FPS battery 6,500 mAh 45W fast charging operating system Android 16 with Realme UI 7.0 connectivity Wi-Fi 5 Bluetooth 5.3 Dual nanoSIM NFC USB type C GPS others IP69 resistance On-screen fingerprint reader Vapor chamber cooling Stereo speaker rear mirror price From 369 euros (introductory offer) That design sounds familiar to me Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme That the Realme 16 5G draws on the iPhone Air and the Google Pixel is evident. The company has opted for a simple design, with a smooth back and an upper horizontal camera module where there are two cameras (not three as it might seem). Realme has named this finish Air Design and the upper module, Camera Bar. The firm assures that it is “a design inspired by flagship smartphones.” The terminal has a thickness of 8.1 millimeters and weighs only 181 grams. These are figures that are not bad at all and even less so if we take into account that, inside, there is a 6,500 mAh battery. Then we’ll talk about her. It also highlights the IP69 resistance and that, in such a thin body, we find a 6,050 mm² vapor chamber that, on paper, should keep the temperature at bay. Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme Regarding the exterior, the absolute protagonist is a 6.57-inch AMOLED screen, FullHD+ resolution, up to 120 Hz refresh rate and a maximum brightness of 1,400 nits. Realme has highlighted the “ultra-thin edges” and rounded corners, again, resembling it to a high-end terminal. Engine signed by MediaTek We take out the scalpel to see inside. Under the hood we find a processor MediaTek Dimensity 6400 Turbo eight-core 2.5 GHz configuration, as well as a unique eight-core configuration gigabytes of RAM and 256 GB of internal storage. The RAM is LPDDR4x and the storage is UFS 2.2, so not only are they relatively modest amounts, but they are not the fastest versions either. Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme The operating system is Android 16 with Realme UI 7.0, which implements an interface with transparency and a new engine, Flux Engine, to improve animations and system response. What the company has not mentioned in the information shared with the media is the number of years it will keep the software updated. Finally, and regarding the battery, the terminal has a capacity of 6,500 mAh courtesy of the silicon-carbon technology. It is worth mentioning that this is the version that arrives in Spain, but the version from other markets, such as Vietnam, has even more capacity and reaches 7,000 mAh. In any case, autonomy should not be a problem. The fast side, for its part, stays at 45W. Is that a mirror? Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme We ended up talking about the camera. Although the rear appears to have three cameras, the reality is that it only has two: a wide angle and a monochrome which, historically, has been used to improve portrait taking. The protagonist is the angle, since it mounts a sensor Sony IMX852 50 megapixel. That, combined with the LumaColor engine, promises better results, always on paper. The most striking thing is, without a doubt, the rear mirror. Next to the lenses there is a small mirror designed to take selfies with the rear camera (something that, it must be said, would make more sense if it had a wide angle). The idea is not bad, but we will have to see if, in practice and in movement situations, that little mirror makes a difference or not. Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme And speaking of selfies, the Realme 16 5G is one of the few, if not the only mid-range terminal that incorporates a 50-megapixel front camera. That is, without a doubt, very good news in terms of sharpness, although we already know that processing plays an important role in taking photographs. We will clear up doubts when we put the glove on for the analysis. Versions and price of the Realme 16 5G Realme 16 5G | Image: Realme He Realme 16 5G It can be purchased from today both on its website and at the usual retailers. It will be available in black and white (with glowing effects depending on the light) and in a single 8/256 GB version. During the launch and until April 30, its price will be 349 euros.

Dreame comes ready to eat up the small appliance market. The Chinese company has burst into Spain with very premium robotics, cleaning and home care products and has now decided to go one step further. As? With the launch of a new, more popular brand called Mova. And for its premiere, the firm has announced a whole arsenal of robot vacuum cleaners, among which the Mova V70 Ultra Complete stands out. If the most premium robot vacuum cleaners have accustomed us to something, it is to “stick out their paws.” The highest range already has a telescopic arm that stretches to reach and sweep corners and edges. In mops it is less common, but Dreame has already done some interesting things in this field. Mova has taken it, directly, to the next level. Arms forward, arms behind. The Mova V70 Ultra is the brand’s most premium model and it shows. The company has put all its efforts and has implemented everything that could be expected from a device that seeks to be, above all, a display of muscle. The most striking thing is, obviously, the brush and the telescopic mop. Both devices deploy to the sides to better reach the edges, nothing new, except for the enormous reach they have. In the image you can see the extendable arm with the mop | Image: Xataka First, the side brush extends up to 12 centimeters to the side when a narrow edge is detected, allowing you to brush and clean underneath furniture that the robot can’t reach. The same with complicated areas, like the legs of a high chair, for example. The mop does exactly the same thing, but goes even further. The device has two mops, but the right one has a low-profile arm that extends 16 centimeters to the side. That, again, allows you to reach corners, lower areas of furniture and small recesses. Corners, edges and areas under furniture have historically been the weak point of robot vacuum cleaners and, little by little, they are managing to solve it. Bottom of the robot vacuum cleaner | Image: Xataka Armed to the teeth. Otherwise, the device comes with everything expected in a high-end robot vacuum cleaner. It has a motor that rotates at 150,000 RPM, allowing it to achieve a suction power of 40,000 Pa. The powder is stored in the device and then extracted at the charging station in a bagless system with a capacity of up to 100 days. The floating mop rotates at 300 RPM and is also capable of applying 15N of force, tilting 5º and adjusting at a rate of +2 and -1 mm. In other words, it is capable of automatically positioning itself so that contact with the ground is always strong and constant, at least in theory. Last but not least, it should be noted that the navigation system recognizes 300 obstacles, that the sensor located on the top is hidden in the chassis to allow passage through low furniture, and that it is capable of overcoming obstacles of up to nine centimeters. Regarding the battery, 6,400 mAh with fast charging. Mova Rover X10 | Image: Mova Entering Europe with everything. Although this product is the most striking, Mova is clear that, like its sister Dreame, it wants to reach all possible market segments and, to do so, it has brought to Europe an entire catalog of products from all types of segments. For a quick review: Cleaning: in addition to the aforementioned V70 Ultra Complete, the firm has brought the V70 Ultra Roller Complete model (with extendable roller mop), four other robot vacuum cleaners, four electric mops, three vacuum cleaners, a steam floor cleaner and three window cleaning robots. Abroad: following Dreame’s wakeMova has launched six robotic lawnmowers (including the ViAX range, which seems focused on small gardens), two pool cleaners, an irrigation system, two outdoor televisions with up to 2,000 nits of brightness, two barbecues and two solar energy storage systems, the largest capacity with up to 20 kWh. Personal care: The range includes a Dyson-type hair dryer, but with a C shape, a styler, a foldable hair dryer/styler, two toothbrushes (one with irrigator included) and two razors. Pets: Yes, there has also been room for the furry ones, because Mova has brought an automatic litter box for cats, an automatic feeder, a GPS for dogs, an air purifier and a bladeless fan. They have thought of everything, there is no doubt. Small appliances: there are more products, yes, paper and pen. Mova has brought a blender, a slushie maker, an automatic coffee maker with a huge bottom and a brutal look, another more conventional looking coffee maker with a double spout, a portable coffee maker, a curious air fryer with a transparent interior and a waste processor. Smart devices: Finally, the Chinese firm has launched an AI recorder similar to the Plaud Note Pro and, if that were not enough, a 3D printer called Palette 300 Combo that, if it goes well, has the potential to revolutionize multicolor 3D printing as we know it. For now, no prices. Most products are now available in Mova’s official websitealthough there are some that are still waiting. Regarding the Mova V70 Ultra Complete, it will be available from May and its price will be 1,399 euros. Images | Mova In Xataka | Dreame started as a supplier to Xiaomi. Eight years later it wants to be the next Samsung and has paid 10 million to prove it

BYD carries a few years of heart attack in Europe and in the rest of the regions in which it has a presence. However, this time the brand wanted to take a very different step: fully enter the premium vehicle segment. And he has done it precisely with Denza, your luxury brand which has been based in China for more than a decade and which this year crosses borders to give another pinch to the European automobile industry. The Chinese giant launches its premium division in this market with two models: the Denza Z9GTa high-performance family coupe, and the Denza D9a seven-seater minivan. Curiously, we were already able to test the Z9GT first-hand in 2025, giving us clues about what was happening. Now, the departure is imminent, and below these lines we tell you all the details.

It was born in 2010 as an alliance between BYD and Daimler, and launched its first vehicle in 2014, although its presence had until now been limited to the Chinese market. Its arrival in Europe comes in a context in which Chinese brands are trying to consolidate beyond the mid-price segment, where they have already achieved some traction. The Z9GT: a grand tourer with three engines and ultra-fast charging The Z9GT is the model with which Denza wants to present itself to the European buyer of premium cars. It is a shooting brake (a body between a sedan and a family car) with more sporty lines. The vehicle is 5.18 meters long (5.19 meters in the plug-in hybrid) and was designed by Wolfgang Egger, known for his work at Audi and Alfa Romeo. The most interesting thing about the Z9GT is its technical proposal, especially when it comes to battery charging. The model incorporates the system FLASH Charging from BYD, capable of operating with a power of up to 1,500 kW, which would allow the battery to be charged from 10% to 70% in five minutes, or from 10% to 97% in nine. The brand further claims that even at temperatures of -30°C the process from 20% to 97% would be completed in twelve minutes. These figures, if confirmed in real conditions of use, would represent a significant jump compared to what we currently have. Of course, to take advantage of them, it will be necessary to access BYD’s own chargers, which also they have to deploy in Europe. So there is still quite a bit of work ahead in this regard. The battery is an evolution of the Blade Battery from BYD, now in its second generation, with chemistry lithium iron phosphate (LFP). According to the brand itself, engineers have managed to simultaneously increase both energy density and charging speed. You have it in pure electric and plug-in hybrid The Z9GT will be sold in two variants. The 100% electric version has three motors (one front and two rear) with a combined power of 1,156 HP and a 122.49 kWh battery. The autonomy approved according to the WLTP cycle exceeds 600 kilometers. 0 to 100 km/h is resolved in 2.7 seconds and the maximum speed reaches 270 km/h. These are, of course, figures that we are not used to seeing very often on the streets. Throughout 2026, Denza also plans to add a rear-wheel drive variant with a range of about 800 kilometers. The plug-in hybrid version (DM) combine those three electric motors with a 2.0-liter turbocharged gasoline engine. The total power of the system is 776 HP. The battery, in this case 63.82 kWh, offers 203 kilometers of electric range according to WLTP. With the battery charged and the tank full, the manufacturer estimates a combined range of about 805 kilometers. 0 to 100 km/h is done in 3.6 seconds, according to the firm. Platform with rear steering and double independent motor Under the body, the Z9GT rides on the e³ (“e-cube”) platform, developed specifically for Denza. In it we find a rear steering system with two independent motorsone per wheel. This allows … Read more

Vivo has just presented the Vivo X300 Ultrathe most powerful model in its catalog to date. It is a very important device for the company, which although it is used to competing in the most premium segment, is the first time it has launched the Ultra model outside of China. Because yes, the Vivo X300 Ultra will arrive in Europe and, of course, in Spain. The device arrives armed to the teeth in each and every one of its sections. Vivo has not left anything out and offers a high-capacity battery, the latest from Qualcomm under the hood and a triple camera with a dual 200 megapixel sensor, teleconverter and grip that promises a lot. Without further ado, let’s get to know it better. Vivo X300 Ultra technical sheet vivo x300 ultra dimensions and weight 163.98 x 76.81 x 8.58mm Volcano Black: 233.64 grams Steppe Green: 240.13 grams screen 6.82 inch AMOLED QHD+ resolution (3,168 x 1,440 pixels) Refresh rate: 144 Hz 510 DPI Format: 19.8:9 Screen/front ratio: 94.49% HBM brightness: 1,800 nits Local maximum brightness: 4,500 nits processor Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 ram memory 16GB LPDDR5x Ultra Pro +16 GB extended RAM internal storage 1TB UFS 4.1 rear camera Wide 200 MP, f/1.85, OIS Wide angle 50 MP, f/2.0, FOV 123.4º, OIS Telephoto: 200 MP, f/2.67, OIS 8K video, 4K@120 FPS front camera 50MP f/2.45 battery 6,600 mAh 100W fast charge 40W wireless charging operating system Android 16 with OriginOS 16 connectivity Dual nanoSIM 5G+5G Dual Standby eSIM 5G NSA/SA 4G Wi-Fi 7 Bluetooth 6.0 USB Type C (USB 3.2) USB-OTG, DisplayPort NFC others Teleconverter included Handle kit included Tripod adapter ring On-screen fingerprint reader Resistance IP68, IP69 Charger included price To be determined Huge on the outside… Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live The Vivo X300 Ultra is a phone big, heavy and relatively thick. In the module area, the device is 8.58 mm thick, something that, it must be said, is normal in recent high-end terminals. The weight varies depending on the color, but in no case, regardless of whether it is black or green, does it drop below 230 grams. However, this thickness and weight is offset by a high-capacity battery and an all-terrain camera. The rear has a huge camera module integrated into the chassis that draws attention, but otherwise it is quite simple. The most striking thing is, of course, the compatibility with the side grip, the tripod ring and the teleconverter. The latter will help us increase the telephoto distance and take photos from even further away. Basically, we can turn the mobile phone into a “compact” camera based on accessories. Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live In the front we find a huge 6.82-inch AMOLED panel with QHD+ resolution (3,168 x 1,440 pixels) which leaves us with a density of 510 pixels per inch. This screen moves at 144 Hz and occupies, according to the firm, 94.5% of the front. The brightness is also on par with the high-end, reaching 4,500 nits of peak brightness and 1,800 nits of maximum brightness. …and huge inside Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live Under the hood, the Vivo X300 Ultra features the latest in components. Yes for him Vivo X300 Pro The firm opted for MediaTek, for its Ultra model it has gone directly with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5which has accompanied with 16 gigabytes of LPDDR5x RAM memory and a tera UFS 4.1 internal storage. It won’t be by brute force, of course. The operating system is Android 16 and runs under OriginOS 16, Vivo’s customization layer. It has Google Gemini, the entire Vivo creative AI suite and everything you would expect in terms of connectivity: Wi-Fi 7Bluetooth 6.0, dual SIM, eSIM and NFC. The battery amounts to 6,600 mAh with 100W fast charging and 40W wireless charging. As a curious fact, the device is sold in a pack that includes accessories for the camera and charger. Let’s talk about the camera Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live Vivo has been betting heavily on photography in recent years. On this occasion, the firm repeats its collaboration with ZEISS and opts for a triple lens system composed of a 200 megapixel wide anglea 50 megapixel wide angle and a telephoto that shares resolution (and optical stabilization) with the main sensor. This is capable of reaching 100x magnification using digital zoom, although the optical zoom is lower. Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live What is the key? Stabilization and video. On the one hand, the main sensor is capable of recording up to 8K, but the set supports up to 4K at 120 FPS and 10-bit Log format. Vivo also boasts of having achieved the CIPA 6.6 stabilization rating in its wide angle, CIPA 6 in the wide angle and CIPA 7 at telephoto. In the company’s words, it is the highest degree of professional stabilization currently available in a smartphone. Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live To complete the set, the Vivo X300 Ultra has a 400 millimeter Vivo Zeiss Gen 2 Ultra teleconverter (equivalent to 17x optical magnification), a grip kit and a tripod adapter. On paper, the proposal doesn’t look bad at all, but we will wait for the analysis to draw more precise conclusions. However, Vivo’s track record when it comes to photography is quite positive. Versions and price of the Vivo X300 Ultra Vivo X300 Ultra | Image: Live He Vivo X300 Ultra It will be available starting April 24 in a single version with 16 GB of RAM and 1 TB of internal storage.

This season Dyson has decided to expand its portfolio of floor cleaning products: in addition to a very light handheld vacuum cleaner (which we have tried) and a new robot vacuum cleanerhas also launched an electric mop that impresses: it is practically a stick. But this ode to minimalism It has a very competent technical sheet, so we have thoroughly tested the Dyson Pencilwash to verify it. Dyson Pencilwash technical sheet Dyson Pencilwash Dimensions and weight 1155 x 267 x 198mm; 2.2kg Deposit 0.34L autonomy 30 minutes (4-cell lithium ion battery) Charging time 3.5 hours cleaning area 100 m² per tank What comes in the box Charging base, wet brush, drip tray and handle price 349 euros Dyson PencilWash, electric mop, Ultra-thin and lightweight handle, motorized roller, hygienic cleaning, stain removal, quick drying, 30-minute autonomy The price could vary. We earn commission from these links I can’t believe so much technology fits in that stick. When I took it out of the box, the first thing I thought was that there were pieces missing. It can’t be that minimalist… and it is: the Dyson PencilWash is an electric mop and on the surface it’s little more than a stick. It comes with a plastic cap to cover the roller when not in use and a stand to keep the stick upright and carry it. If you want to scrub, remove the roller protector, take out the stick and put them together with the brand’s typical assembly that sounds like a clack when you put them together and has a red button to release them. The fit is perfect. My first impression was that it’s crazy that fits all the electronics in a cylinder less than four centimeters in diameter. It may not be as much as in a vacuum cleaner, but at least it has a battery and a motor. Unlike the mop, with a stick that more or less reaches your shoulders, mop and bucket, here we have a stick that reaches my hips (I’m 1.70 m tall), the roller area and little else. On the handle, the brand’s characteristic aluminum in a vibrant color and matte finish is transformed into a plastic cover to improve grip and immediately below, a couple of buttons to start it and choose if you want more or less water and a couple of LEDs that light up when the battery runs out, it is charging or there is a problem. All very intuitive, no need to read instructions. As always, the most interesting thing is in that roller: it is made of an absorbent microfiber (according to the firm, with 64,000 filaments) and has eight hydration points to always be moist. A surprisingly small tank is also integrated into that area for everything it does: provide mopping water and also clean the roller. Everyone knows the scrubbing process, but here it is much simpler, more comfortable and ergonomic: between the light weight being concentrated on the base and the roller practically sliding on its own because it is motorized, with the Dyson PencilWash the effort is limited to minimally holding and directing the handle. It can be done by (almost) anyone and here I’m also talking about accessibility: if for whatever reason you find it difficult to wring the mop or press, here you could scrub using just two fingers. This must be thanked to a format reduced to the minimum, good distribution of the elements and that it barely weighs. In terms of design and ergonomics, Dyson has given a master class. A week scrubbing with the Dyson PencilWash After the first full charge and filling the tank (as easy as lifting the tab and putting the base under the tap), I got ready for my first house cleaning. As I mentioned in the design section, there is no type of power control because the motorized roller goes alone and it is not an exaggeration: if you do not hold it, it pulls forward until it hits something. What you can choose is whether you want to scrub with a normal or high amount of water. With the normal level it is more than enough for standard cleanings. Something that I have noticed and appreciated about the classic mop is that the dosage is so good that moisten the entire soil with a thin uniform layerbut it doesn’t get puddled (something that happens with a mop if you don’t drain it well). So you wet everything but it dries moderately quickly. To properly clean the floor with water is not enough, so even if it is not included (it must be buy it separatelyit is a probiotic cleaner with low foam and it is not exactly cheap), Dyson allows you to add a little cleaning product to the tank. My apartment is 70 square meters and in less than 10 minutes I had cleaned the floor from top to bottom. I go faster than with the mop and I work half as much. By the way, Dyson talks about a half-hour autonomy that is enough to cover 100 square meters and the truth is, I think it has been conservative: I have been able to clean my house twice without the alarm going off, so the battery is not a problem. What you will have to do if you have a larger house is refill the tank: with its capacity I have barely managed to clean my entire house in normal mode with a certain intensity. The elbow between the base and the handle allows the roller head to be placed almost horizontally, which is great for cleaning under furniture, so that in practice at heights it practically competes with a mop. But since it is wider than the mocho, there are places where it doesn’t fit. An example: in the space between the toilet and the bathtub. Here it’s time to grab the mop from time to time. But it’s not only time to recover the mop to deal … Read more

Samsung has just announced its new Samsung Galaxy A57 5G and Galaxy A37 5Gits mid-range terminals and successors to its most popular smartphones. The key, as it could not be otherwise, is found in software and artificial intelligence. The technical sheet does not change much compared to last year, but Samsung has chosen to offer improvements in terms of usability and functions. Both terminals, as we will see immediately, are very similar to each other. They have a similar size, same screen diagonal and same battery capacity. The fundamental difference is found in the motor and the camera, since the Galaxy A57 5G is somewhat more powerful and “sees” a little better.

However, he has managed significantly reduce the thickness of the Galaxy A57as well as its weight. The Galaxy A37 5G is, for its part, identical to the Galaxy A36 5G. For the rest, and at least in appearance, there are no notable changes at first glance beyond the colors. Both devices incorporate a flat, smooth, simple and minimalist back, in line with what is seen in other ranges. As for the screen, same size and technology as last year. Both devices incorporate 6.7-inch Super AMOLED panels with FullHD+ resolution, up to 1,200 nits of maximum brightness and up to 120 Hz refresh rate. Last year, the devices mounted Gorilla Glass Victus crystals, but on this occasion Samsung has not made any mention of said technology in the statement issued to the media. Given what we have seen, we can conclude that the differences between both models in terms of design are size and weight. The Galaxy A37 5G is heavier and somewhat larger than the A57 5G despite having the same screen size, something that is probably due to better use of the front in the higher model. Exynos for everyone and similar cameras Samsung Galaxy A37 5G | Image: Samsung Samsung has once again opted for own processors for your new mobiles. The Galaxy A57 5G has eight gigabytes of RAM memory and a Exynos 1680 eight cores that reach 2.9 GHz, while the Galaxy A37 5G stays with six gigabytes of RAM and a Exynos 1480also octa-core, at a maximum speed of 2.75 GHz. On paper, the power should be enough for everyday tasks and easy use. However, we will have to see how they evolve in the long term. In that sense, both terminals come to the market with Android 16 and One UI 8.5 pre-installed as standard. The most interesting thing is that Samsung talks about “up to six generations of Android operating system and One UI updates, plus up to six years of security updates.” That means that, in theory, these devices should try the honeys of Android 22. Samsung Galaxy A37 5G | Image: Samsung AI plays an important role in these devices. The Korean company has this section well covered and offers functions such as voice transcription in the recorder, object deletion, Circle to Search, filters and editing suggestions, automatic video cropping and the new Bixby. Along with Gemini, Bixby allows you to interact with the mobile phone and its settings by voice, something we saw released on the Galaxy S26 just a few weeks ago. We ended up talking about the camera, where we didn’t find any big surprises. The configuration is similar on both devices, so they both mount a 50 megapixel wide angleand wide angle and a macro. The difference is in the wide-angle resolution, which is 12 megapixels on the A57 and eight megapixels on the A37. Otherwise, equal. The same applies to the selfie camera, which is 12 megapixels on both terminals. Versions and price of the Samsung Galaxy A57 5G and Galaxy A37 5G The Samsung Galaxy A37 5G and Galaxy A57 5G They can be purchased from April 10. The A57 will arrive in dark blue, gray, light blue and lilac, while the A37 will come in dark green, lavender and white. The prices are as follows: Samsung Galaxy A37 5G 6/128 GB: 389 euros. Samsung Galaxy A57 5G 8/256 GB: 559 euros. Images | Samsung In Xataka | If the question is what comes after the mobile in the age of AI, David Alonso, VP of Samsung Spain, is clear: the mobile

review with features, price and specifications

To the Apple AirTag One thing happens to them, and that is that you don’t miss them until you can’t use them. That’s just what happened to me a few years ago: after switching to Android, I had to abandon them. I could have continued using them with the iPad, yes, but they lost part of the fun because well, if I lose the backpack in which I carry the AirTag and the iPad, too bad. So I started looking for alternatives. Samsung has its Galaxy SmartTagswhich you can only use (officially) with Samsung phones. Motorola has the Moto Tagwhich are worth 40 euros each; and Chipolo has the same Pop, 35 euros each. Then there are proposals of all colors and shapes on platforms like AliExpress that did not convince. I have literally been thinking since Apple released its AirTags, “when Xiaomi arrives and releases theirs for 15 euros, I’m going to buy them a pallet.” That moment has arrived. We’ll see about buying the pallet, but a few weeks ago Xiaomi announced the Xiaomi Tag and server has already lost it (on purpose) a couple of times to test it and see how it goes. AND spoileris exactly what I was looking for. Xiaomi Tag technical sheet xiaomi tag dimensions and weight 46.5 x 31 x 7.2mm 10 grams connectivity Bluetooth LE 5.4 NFC (Apple Find My only) speaker Piezoelectric buzzer battery Removable CR2030 battery One year of autonomy sensor Accelerometer compatibility Google Android Find Hub: Android 9 or later Apple Find My: iOS 14.5 or later ENDURANCE IP67 PRICE 14.99 euros The price could vary. We earn commission from these links Simple, direct and to the point Xiaomi Tag | Image: Xataka Xiaomi has not heated its head with the design, and it is no wonder. After all, we will only see this product twice: when we take it out of the box and when we find it after losing it. The rest of the time it has to go unnoticed, be light, small and not bothersome. It does that perfectly. So, three aspects to highlight. The first is that it has a physical button on the top that, when pressed, makes it sound. It will be good for us to know if the battery has run out, although the easiest way to find out the remaining battery level is from the Locator app, available in the Google Play Store. The second is that, indeed, it sounds, and quite loudly I must add. If, like me, you often lose your keys at home, with the beep you can easily locate them. The third is that it has a handle on the top that is great to put a keychain on and hang it wherever we want. I used to carry the AirTag in my wallet, but since I have the ID and driving license on mobile The wallet has passed away. So, for this review I have put it on a keychain along with some old keys that I had at home. Like any device of this type, the Xiaomi Tag works with a CR2032 battery. In theory, the autonomy is up to a year, more or less. From my experience with the AirTag I can confirm that this is the case. In any case, you can find these batteries in any establishment, from a neighborhood hardware store to a supermarket, including Amazon. How it works Xiaomi Tag | Image: Xataka Throughout the analysis I will talk about the experience on Android because that is where I have used it, but the Xiaomi Tag is also compatible with iOS. If you have an iPhone, you can use it without problem. You just have to know two things: you can’t use it with Apple and Google networks at the same timeor one or the other; and it doesn’t have UWB technology (ultra wide band). One of the coolest things about AirTags is that, thanks to the Apple U1 chip and UWB technology, when you are close to the lost object it tells you the direction in which you should move to reach it. The Xiaomi Tag lacks this technology and they drink only from Bluetooth. Of course, the Bluetooth of all the Android phones in the world, and that’s where the fun is. The operation of this network is quite simple: Imagine that you lose the keys in which you carry the Xiaomi Tag in the park. Your neighbor Juan, who has an Android phone, passes by your keys. Juan has not seen the keys, but his mobile phone, without Juan knowing it or having to do anything, has detected the Bluetooth Low Energy signal emitted by the Xiaomi Tag. Your mobile sends, after encryption, the location to the Google cloud. Google, through the Locator app, tells you this location and marks it on the map so you know where to find your keys. Xiaomi Tag | Image: Xataka The same thing works in motion. If you leave a backpack on the bus, all the Android phones of all the people who pass by it will detect the Xiaomi Tag and you will be able to see, almost in real time, where it is. As someone who had a suitcase with an AirTag inside lost by a certain airline at the Las Vegas airport, I can confirm that this information can be worth gold. The limitation that these devices have is evident: there must be cell phones nearby. Luckily, in Spain Android is religion with a 70% market share. That is, if you lose the Xiaomi Tag, seven out of every ten mobile phones that pass by will be Android and, therefore, they will collaborate in your search in an anonymized way. Another thing is that you lose it in the middle of the mountain where no one passes by. In that case, you will only be able to see the last known location.

New BMWi3, features, price and technical sheet

by

In six months with the order book open, BMW has collected 50,000 reservations from the BMW iX3. The figure is even more striking if we take into account that the car has arrived exclusively with a single 469 HP engine and a gigantic battery of more than 100 kWh, so its starting price of 69,900 euros is a starting point that will probably fall. The electric SUV was the first car of the New Classthe reset in the BMW electric family that will mark its future. The purely electric platform that promises combustion car ranges, charging powers of 400 kW and a cabin built from the software. Now, it is the BMW i3 that will take over in this New Class that will mark the company’s purely electric future. A car that draws aesthetically from some of its historical sedans but that, again, repeats with a cabin that will surprise the most classic. The most important Series 3 in (many) years The BMW i3 was, in its day, a car ahead of its time. A sort of small electric car, very spacious inside, with electrical technology that was a rarity in the market and a touch typical of BMW. A combination that could only be found in what it was: a laboratory. Today, thanks to those investments in R&D with wheels, BMW has a new i3. One that couldn’t be more different. Because this BMW i3 is already part of the 3 Series range. It will be the first purely electric and it does so with the weight of taking the reins towards the electric car that the Germans have been diversifying but that, forced by Europe, they will have no choice but to prioritize in the coming years in the Old Continent. Almost proportionally sculpted like one of its great successes from the past, the BMW E36, the new BMW i3 arrives with a thin and wide kidney grille, opposite to what we saw in the BMW iX3. Here the horizontal is prioritized over the vertical, unlike in the electric SUV where the verticality of the front was deepened. The shapes tend to be monolithic, with a continuous pilot rear that crosses its entire width. Inside, BMW repeats the formula with its BMW Panoramic iDrive. That is, we have a multifunction steering wheel with touch keys whose icons light up or turn off depending on whether we are driving, parked or moving on a fast lane. The central screen is gigantic, 17.9 incheswith a rhomboid shape to bring the functions on the left side closer to the driver. It combines customizable widgets with the map or any other function we want. But the idea is that the central screen is a mere accompaniment to be accessed from time to time. And the BMW i3 has the thin screen that covers the entire width of the vehicle in the upper area. Instead of a traditional Head-Up Display, BMW has this customizable digital surface to which we can send information about the trip we are taking, the calendar, what is playing on the radio or the corresponding music application or the weather, to give some examples. It is an interior that seems difficult to convince purists. It will try to convince them with its mechanics and battery. As in the case of the electric SUV, the BMW i3 xDrive 50 is the first to hit the market. That is, one of its most powerful versions. Adding its front and rear axle motors, the BMW i3 xDrive 50 comes with 345 kW of power (469 HP) and a torque of 645 Nm. It is accompanied by a battery whose capacity has not yet been revealed, but taking into account that BMW announces a range of more than 900 kilometers (before homologation according to the WLTP cycle) we can expect it to be around or exceed 100 kWh. What we do know is that the car will have 800 volt technology and a charging power of 400 kW, promising to recharge 400 kilometers of autonomy in just 10 minutes. In any case, we will have to wait for more details to have a clear idea of ​​this aspect but one of the best consumption on the market is expected. To manage all the power and dynamism of the car, BMW will have what they call heart of joythe superbrain responsible for controlling the load and energy recovery but also the traction of the wheels or the response of the steering. According to BMW, the response of all the systems involved is 10 times faster than previous systems. BMW wants to make the new i3 the perfect balance between dynamism and consumption to win over those who still have their reservations about the electric car proposals.

OPPO Find N6 – Features, price and technical sheet

by

This year is going to be one of the most important in the folding mobiles. If everything indicates that Apple will present the iPhone Foldthe rest of the brands are not lagging behind: from Motorola with its recent Motorola Razr Fold to the Honor Magic V6. And the one that concerns me, the OPPO Find N6, a mobile that I have been testing for two weeks and that I loved for an aspect that perfectly sums up its character: does not require sacrifices despite being foldable. The phone has just been presented worldwide and comes with a drawback for Europeans: OPPO is not going to distribute it here. And it’s a shame, because I think the Find N6 is the favorite for the throne of Fold-type mobiles. Above all for a characteristic that underlines the absence of sacrifices that I mentioned: his wrinkle is almost imperceptible. OPPO Find N6 technical sheet OPPO Find N6 OUTDOOR SCREEN Exterior: 6.62-inch LTPO OLED Panel Resolution of 2,616 x 1,140 pixels LTPO refresh rate 1-120 Hz 1,800 nits maximum brightness 3,600 nits peak brightness indoor screen 8.12 inch LTPO OLED Panel Resolution of 2,480 x 2,248 pixels LTPO refresh rate 1-120 Hz 1,800 nits maximum brightness 2,500 nits peak brightness DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT Folded: 159.87 x 74.12 x 8.93 mm Unfolded: 159.87 x 145.58 x 4.21 mm 225 grams PROCESSOR Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 RAM 16 GB LPDDR5X STORAGE 512GB UFS 4.1 FRONT CAMERA Exterior and interior: 20 MP, f/2.4 REAR CAMERA Main: Samsung ISOCELL HP5, 200 MP, f/1.8, OIS Wide angle: Samsung ISOCELL JN5, 50 MP, f/2.0 Periscopic telephoto: Samsung ISOCELL JN5,50 MP, f/2.7, OIS Multispectral True Color camera, f/2.4 BATTERY 6,000 mAh 80W fast wired charging 50W wireless charging OPERATING SYSTEM Android 16 ColorOS 16 CONNECTIVITY 5G Dual Nano-SIM and eSIM NetworkBoost S1 Chip GPS, GLONASS, BeiDou, Galileo, QZSS, NavIC USB 3.1 OTHERS Side fingerprint reader IP56, IP58 and IP59 certification Zero-Feel Crease Hinge Dual stereo speakers PRICE Unspecified A foldable screen without the worst of folding screens OPPO highlighted zero wrinkles (“Zero Crease”) several times in the presentation of its foldable. The mobile has been developed with a new titanium hinge with a drop-by-drop printed polymer finish that stabilizes the flexible panel in the folding line to smooth its surface. These are the sales pitch and the technical specification. I had to check it. I have tested several folding phones and I know that the wrinkle is something that is already present on the phone even during unboxing. Although it has not yet been used, the small valley through which the fold runs is visible to sight and touch. It then deepens as the phone is used. When I opened the OPPO Find N6 I was surprised to find a practically smooth central surface. The wrinkle was not zerobut the lightest I had ever tried. And it has remained that way during these two weeks: the engineering work carried out by OPPO is impressive. The crest does not disappear completely, the “Zero Crease” thing is somewhat exaggerated. Without being able to ignore the obvious: the wrinkle is almost imperceptible, both to sight and to the touch. The wrinkle is minimally noticeable when you run your finger along the center line. When holding the phone straight there is no visible defectyes a small vertical mark when looking at the screen from the sides. The light creates a slight distortion, but not much more. It doesn’t even affect the content being played. It is very difficult to distinguish the wrinkle from the fold. From the front you can’t even see I have tested most Fold and Flip type foldables, I used the Honor Magic V6 – another of the phones that boasts a minimal folding brand -, and I can say without a doubt that the OPPO Find N6 takes the lead. trophy for best folding panel for its almost missing crest. It represents an improvement in use. It’s not a dramatic improvement, but it is notable. To the touch it is not very noticeable either. The hinge built by OPPO with a titanium base provides an extra addition to the reduction of the fold line: allows you to put the screen at almost any angle. The deployment is firm, offers resistance and does not lose position. Not everything is a screen: power counts The OPPO Find N6 has an 8.12-inch folding panel that not only reduces wrinkles to almost an anecdote, it also allows it to be viewed in all types of conditions, including outdoors. In addition, the body is as thin as it is solid: once folded it looks like an ordinary mobile phone. I have used it as such. Within the sheets of only 4.21 mm, OPPO has snuck the Snapdragon 8 Gen 5 Elite16 GB of RAM and 512 GB of storage. The Find N6 is well served in performance, on par with the best of this year. Without experiencing excess temperature, neither playing nor charging the phone. Because what a battery: 6,000 mAh carbon silicon They go away after two days with moderate use. Even when regularly displaying the mobile phone, with the extra energy consumption that a panel twice as large implies. It is very comfortable to use, somewhat complicated to unfold (it is so compact that it makes it difficult to put your fingers in to open the phone), it comes with the software updated to Android 16 and ColorOS 16, does not miss the opportunity to show off AI (with its dedicated button) and even includes a practical infrared emitter to use the OPPO Find N6 as an improvised remote control. The fact that it is a folding mobile phone does not detract from its capabilities, but rather adds to it. A very solid photographic set OPPO maintains the round-shaped photographic module and the collaboration with Hasselblad of the Find N5. The combination is still a triple camera, although now we have a fourth as support for color calibration in shots. This … Read more

I hate cleaning windows, so when I had the opportunity to try a window cleaning robot I didn’t think about it for a second. The Dreame C1 promises to leave your windows spotless, everything controlled from its app. Let’s see how he did. Dreame C1 technical sheet DREAM C1 dimensions 27 x 27 8.5cm WEIGHT 1.6kg cleaning surface Maximum: 2.5 x 4 meters Minimum: 30 x 40 cm SUCTION POWER 5500Pa noise level 63 dBA other details safety cord Five cleaning modes Control via app Cleaning solution tank price 399 euros DREAME C1 Robot Window Cleaner, 5500 Pa Suction Power, Reliable Safety Protection, CornerClean Technology, Thorough Wet Cleaning, Comprehensive Path Planning The price could vary. We earn commission from these links An elegant design I have never used a robot window cleaner, but I have seen photos of a few and without a doubt the Dreame one is the most elegant of everyone. It has a cream-colored design, with a glossy finish on the top and a leather-effect handle so you can hold it safely when placing it on the glass. The robot is completely square and has a weight of 1.6kg, quite reasonable for its size and the type of product it is. Next to the handle is the power button and next to it is the cap through which the cleaning solution is filled. The most cumbersome thing are the cables since they are very long (necessary) and also have two transformers, one of them quite large. It is easy to connect, the cumbersome part comes when it comes to storing it, especially if you try to put it back in its box. Setup and application The start-up of the robot has no secret. Regarding the robot itself, we only have to fill the cleaning solution and place the cloth on the bottom, which is attached with Velcro. Then, as is usual in devices of this type, it is necessary to download an app to control it from the mobile phone and we must also connect it to a WiFi network. The app is also quite simple and allows us to choose the cleaning mode, if we want it to do one or more passes and also choose between deep or quick cleaning. In the case of deep cleaning, the route that follows makes the passes closer together, so that they overlap each time. With fast mode it covers the entire glass, but makes more spaced passes. The cleaning modes are as follows: Complete: to clean entire windows. Borders– The robot focuses on cleaning the perimeter of the window. Area: allows us to manually select the cleaning area. Remote mode: allows us to control it with a crosshead. Cleaning a window The first thing is to turn on the robot from the physical button so that the fans that make it “stick” to the glass turn on. The suction is powerful and it immediately sticks to the surface, the problem is that it is quite noisy. It is understandable, but the worst thing is that the robot gives voice instructions at the same time as it cleans and the noise of the fans often makes it impossible to understand anything. It has two straps that help it move across the surface, four brushes in the corners and the cleaning cloth that covers the entire perimeter. But let’s get to what’s interesting, which is how he leaves the crystals. Just because I don’t like cleaning windows doesn’t mean I don’t appreciate when they’re spotless. I would like to say that the Dreame C1 makes them perfect, but the reality is very different. After taking several passes at the window seen in the photos, both inside and out, you could see quite a few marks that he had left when passing, especially in the corners where the cloth does not reach. One of the problems I see with the Dreame C1 is that it barely uses cleaning solution. Before starting it, I thought it would spray the cleaning solution from the bottom, but it does so through nozzles on the front and the amount that comes out each time is just a few droplets. In the video you can see the problem: it sprays the product when it reaches the middle of the glass, so the cloth has little travel to spread it. In this way, marks are left from the liquid that has not been able to spread near the edges. I also tested it in an apartment in the city and I was more satisfied here. I used it in two large windows with sliding windows that face the street (I don’t include photos so as not to dox me myself) and they get quite dirty. In order to clean them on the outside I have to take them down and they are quite heavy, so it is not very convenient to say the least. Although they weren’t perfect either, the result was much better than they were and the best thing: I I avoided having to disassemble them. As for cleaning time, in all tests I used it with the deep cleaning mode and it was pretty fast. The large window, the one in the photos, measures 180 x 77 cm and cleaned each side in about 4 or 5 minutes. For the sliding windows (90 x 85 cm) it took even less. Another point to keep in mind is that I dreamed only recommends using your own cleaning solution. In the box comes a 230ml bottle and is then sold in 1 liter bottles that cost 24.90 euros. The tank is 80 ml and according to Dreame it lasts for 60 minutes of cleaning, so it should last a long time. Dreame C1, Xataka’s opinion I really wanted to try a window cleaning robot and I admit that I had high expectations, perhaps that’s why my feeling is a little bittersweet. The Dreame C1 It has half reconciled me with cleaning the windows; It doesn’t … Read more
