No information about pricing options has been leaked yet, but it's safe to say Moto G96 will cost a bit more than Moto G86, which made its debut last month. For reference, Moto G86 was priced to sell for as low as €330 / £300 in Europe.
For what is worth, Moto G96 offers a little bit more power in the same sleek chassis that Motorola fans are very familiar with. Non-tech savvy customers are unlikely to notice the subtle design differences between the various Moto G series phones.No information about pricing options has been leaked yet, but it's safe to say Moto G96 will cost a bit more than Moto G86, which made its debut last month.

Motorola introduced a mid-range trio last month , but there's one device missing from the collection, the Moto G96 5G. Although the smartphone was previously leaked, it was not among the devices Motorola launched at the end of May.The new Moto G56 5G, Moto G86 5G, and Moto G86 Power 5G made their debut in Europe but are unlikely to be introduced in the United States. The same can be said about the Moto G96, a phone that hasn't been announced yet, but already had its specs sheet and design leaked a while ago The latest Moto G96 pictures reveal a very noticeable premium-looking design for Motorola's mid-range phone , and the information that comes with the images confirm this statement.Motorola will be continuing its successful partnership with Pantone, which is why the Moto G96 will be available in these vivid colors: Catteleya Orchid, Dresden Blue, Greener Pastures, Asheligh Blue. Besides these bright hues, customers will also be able to choose the premium option, which is the vegan faux leather model.If we put the Moto G96 and Moto G86 sides by side or compare any of the three phones launched last month by Motorola with the Moto G96, they look virtually the same. The only difference lies in the size and shape of the camera island.

Tecno Camon 40 Pro review
Tecno has unveiled its Camon 40 series at the MWC in Barcelona, and today, we are going to meet one of the most interesting specimens - the Camon 40 Pro 5G. It offers a well-rounded specs sheet with plenty of premium features at an attractively low price point. The Camon 40 Pro 5G bets heavily on design and multimedia - it has a curved shape with an unusual looking back, a fast 144Hz OLED, Dolby Atmos speakers, a powerful processor, and 50MP cameras on both sides for a premium photo experience. Let's start from the beginning. The Camon 40 Pro 5G has curved panels and a thin profile, Gorilla Glass 7i protection, and IP68 plus IP69 ratings. It is also tested to be drop resistant - to an extent. The Camon 40 Pro 5G packs a 6.78-inch 1080p OLED display with 144Hz refresh rate and HDR10+ certifications. The model utilizes a rather popular chipset lately - the Dimensity 7300 5G. The Camon lineup has always had a focus on the camera kit, and the Camon 40 Pro 5G is no exception. It has a 50MP LYT-700C main camera, an 8MP ultrawide secondary, and a 50MP AF selfie imager. The Tecno Camon 40 Pro 5G is powered by a 5,200mAh battery that supports up to 45W wired charging. It boots Android 15 with Hi OS 15, which is brimming with AI options, and it is promised to get three major software upgrades in the following years. Tecno Camon 40 Pro 5G specs at a glance: Body: 164.3x74.6x7.3mm, 179g; Gorilla Glass 7i front. plastic frame, plastic back; IP68/IP69 dust tight and water resistant (high pressure water jets; immersible up to 2m for 30 min). 164.3x74.6x7.3mm, 179g; Gorilla Glass 7i front. plastic frame, plastic back; IP68/IP69 dust tight and water resistant (high pressure water jets; immersible up to 2m for 30 min).

Connectivity: 5G; Wi-Fi; BT; NFC; FM radio; Infrared port. 5G; Wi-Fi; BT; NFC; FM radio; Infrared port. Misc: Fingerprint reader (under display, optical); stereo speakers; Circle to Search. The Camon 40 Pro 5G seems like a sweet deal, but it's not exactly an update over the Camon 30 Pro 5G. The chipset is a lower class, the ultrawide camera has been severely downgraded, and the charging power is lower. Those features are now reserved for the Premium model. On a positive note, these cuts made the Camon 40 Pro 5G more affordable, so it is a silver lining of sorts. Unboxing the Camon 40 Pro 5G The Camon 40 Pro 5G arrives in a thick paper box, which is filled with goodies. It all starts with the phone, of course, then there is a USB-A-to-C cable, and even a 45W power adapter. That's not all! Tecno bundles the phone with a premium protective case, which features an incredibly grippy and stylish back that matches the phone's design. Finally, the phone arrives with a factory-applied protective folio on its screen. Page 2

The Infinix Hot 60i is already selling online
We have known that the Infinix Hot 60 family is right around the corner for some time now, but we expected a bit more formal release than a random reader tip in our inbox, informing us that the Hot 60i is already on sale in Bangladesh. We imagine that there will be a bit more heads up for the higher-end models from the Hot 60 family, but this might just be it for the Hot 60i. Regardless, the seller has a conveniently rich specs page. The Hot 60i resembles the Hot 50i, or rather the Hot 50, as it features a trio of "camera" modules on the back. Infinix Hot 60i In any case, the phone's physical appearance is very familiar. It measures 167.9 x 75.6 x 7.7 mm, featuring a plastic back and frame, and a Gorilla Glass front. We don't know exactly what kind of glass is used, and we aren't quite sure how well-sealed the design is. According to the specs, the phone is "splash proof", which probably means something like an IPX4 rating, probably IP54. The available colors are Sleek Black and Titanium Grey. The Hot 60i features a 6.78-inch, 120Hz, Full HD+ IPS LCD display on the front, with an advertised brightness of 800 nits. The chipset is a MediaTek Helio G81 Ultimate, accompanied by 6GB or 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of storage – probably non-expandable, since there are two slots on the card tray for two Nano-SIM cards. The Hot 60i is a dual-SIM 4G device. Local connectivity is handled by dual-band Wi-Fi AC and Bluetooth 5.0, with onboard NFC and a 3.5mm audio jack. The fingerprint reader is side-mounted, and the specs sheet lists a Light sensor, Proximity sensor, Accelerometer, Compass and Gyroscope. In terms of cameras, the Hot 60i is listed as having a 50MP, f/1.8 main camera with FullHD video capture. There is reportedly a second 2MP camera. We aren't sure what the third module on the camera island is. There is a single 8MP, f/2.0 selfie camera. A rather large 5,160 mAh battery is keeping the light on. It has 45W charging support. The store offers two variants of the Hot 60i – 6GB/128GB for BDT 13,999 (€98/$115) and 8GB/256GB for BDT 16,499 (€115/$135). Source
