The vivo S30 series made its debut in China earlier today with two models. There's the vanilla S30 which features a 6.67-inch AMOLED (FHD+ 120Hz) and the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 chip. It is joined by the S30 Pro mini which dials down to a 6.31-inch LTPO AMOLED (FHD+ 120Hz) and opts for MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ instead.

The more impressive bit is that despite the smaller size, the S30 Pro mini gets the same 6,500mAh battery as its larger sibling, coupled with 90W charging. S30 Pro mini measures 150×71.7×7.99mm and weighs 186 grams, which places it in the same size category as the vivo X200 Pro mini.

Best Buy is now selling the Moto G Power (2025) mid-ranger at a lower than Prime Day price

Equipped with a 5,000mAh battery... like so many other mid-range devices on the market today, the latest addition to Motorola's popular Moto G Power lineup is arguably not as attractive or as impactful as older members of the same family. At the right price, though, the Moto G Power (2025) is undeniably still one of the best budget 5G phones out there, pairing that respectable aforementioned cell size with reasonably fast 30W wired and 15W wireless charging technology while rocking a stylish vegan leather finish and an almost surprisingly robust construction. $50 off (17%) 5G, Unlocked, 128GB Storage, 8GB RAM, Android 15, MediaTek Dimensity 6300 Processor, 6.8-Inch IPS LCD Screen with 2388 x 1080 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 50 + 8MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 16MP Front-Facing Camera, 5,000mAh Battery, 30W Wired and 15W Wireless Charging Support, IP68 and IP69 Water Resistance, Military-Grade Durability, Vegan Leather Finish, Two Color Options Buy at BestBuy Normally available for $299.99, the 6.8-inch Android handset with MediaTek Dimensity 6300 processing power can now be purchased at a $50 discount in both "slate gray" and "leaf green" colorways. This somewhat random new Best Buy deal is curiously not matched by Amazon or Motorola's official US e-store at the time of this writing, also beating the only good past offer available exclusively for Prime members earlier this month. It's obviously pretty unusual to see a better-than-Prime-Day deal offered so soon after Amazon's big summer event, especially with no special requirements and no strings attached whatsoever. Yes, you're looking at a fully unlocked phone here compatible with all major (and minor) US carriers, which our comprehensive Moto G Power (2025) review praised for its eye-catching design, silky smooth screen, and overall system performance. Of course, it would be nice if the 120Hz refresh rate-capable display used AMOLED technology instead of LCD, and the 50 + 8MP dual rear-facing camera system is not exactly... mind-blowing either. But it's not easy to find a handsomer, more powerful, and overall better-equipped product at $249.99 right now, with something like the Samsung Galaxy A36 5G costing significantly more than that and the OnePlus Nord N30 5G not looking... very fresh after a summer 2023 commercial debut.

Google Pixel 10 lineup shown in multiple leaks, Week 30 in review

Welcome to your weekly news recap. Google's Pixel 10 series dominated your attention with a total of four top stories. They showed all four upcoming Pixel 10 devices in all of their colors. Google even jumped in on the action and teased the Pixel 10 Pro design officially, and showed the entire four-phone series in the Play Store. The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, 10 Pro XL, and 10 Pro Fold are all coming alongside the Pixel Watch 4 on August 20. The Pixel 10 series will be unveiled on August 20. The lineup reportedly includes four smartphones - Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, and Pixel 10 Pro Fold. They aren't the dullest, but also not the most exciting ever. The first details about the Redmi Note 15 Pro+ surfaced this week. The phone is said to sport a screen with "1.5K" resolution and thin symmetrical bezels on all sides, a 50 MP main camera, a 50 MP telephoto camera, and a battery capacity between 7,000 mAh and 7,999 mAh. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ will allegedly be powered by the yet-unannounced Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chipset. The CMF Watch 3 Pro is official with a larger 1.43-inch display, a precision-milled metal frame, and a soft-touch silicone strap. It's on sale in several countries for $99/£99/€99. A new vivo or iQOO phone is in the works, as evidenced by a Geekbench run. It packs a Dimensity 9400+ and an 8,000mAh battery! It doesn't have many improvements compared to its predecessor, but one of them is pretty significant. The watch gains dual-band GPS, ChatGPT support and new sports modes. It's available starting today in three color options. It might be the iQOO Z10 Turbo Pro+. Nokia has been parting ways with HMD in the past year, and it looks like it's looking to license its brand name to a new "large scale mobile manufacturer". Nokia had licensed its brand in several different segments – Streamview made TVs, RichGo made headphones (and other smartphone accessories), and OFF Global made laptops. As you can probably tell from the use of the past tense, those branding deals have also come to an end. Which company would you like to see pick up the Nokia brand for phones – one of the established players or another startup like HMD? According to a new rumor from China, the OnePlus 15 will launch in the country in October, but not alone. It will allegedly be unveiled alongside the Ace 6 (and possibly the Ace 6 Pro as well), which is an interesting change in strategy for the brand, which last year unveiled the OnePlus 13 in October and the Ace 5 in December. HMD stopped using the Nokia brand and has been releasing phones under its own brand. Now the Finns may be looking for another company to take up the mantle. The chipset choices are interesting too. It's not something it's done before.
