Hero Vida VX2 is even cheaper than iPhone 16e, the most affordable phone from Apple

iPhone 17 to Feature Exclusive Dynamic Island UI Redesign with iOS 26
After WWDC 2025, excitement is growing for the launch of the iPhone 17 series. These new iPhones are expected to have big improvements in design, speed, and user experience. Apple has already shown iOS 26, but people are waiting to try the final version when it is released. Meanwhile, there are many leaks about the iPhone 17. One leak says the Dynamic Island feature may get a new design. A well-known Weibo tipster called Digital Chat Station (DCS) says Apple might change the Dynamic Island only for the iPhone 17 series. The changes will likely be part of iOS 26 and will come from software updates, not from changing the phone's hardware. Before, some leaks said the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max might have a smaller Dynamic Island and new screen technology. But now, reports say these hardware updates will wait until the iPhone 18 series in 2026. Apple first introduced the Dynamic Island with the iPhone 14 Pro, and it has mostly stayed the same since then. If the new design is real, the iPhone 17 will be the first big update to this feature. It might make the Dynamic Island more useful and easier to use. Apple has not officially said anything yet. We will have to wait for the September 2025 Apple event to find out for sure. If the leaks are true, the iPhone 17 could bring important changes to how people use the Dynamic Island, leading to new ways to interact with the phone.

New Kinetic Electric Scooter Spied- To Get Retro-Inspired Look?
Kinetic is making a comeback in the Indian market by carving out its space among electric two-wheeler manufacturers in the country. It's no secret that the brand is working on the development of a new electric scooter, as evidenced by the patent images leaked earlier. Now, the new model of the brand has been spied testing in the country. However, it holds back lots of details because of heavy camouflage. Here we take a look at what the details revealed by the latest images of the EV. Based on the pictures, the electric scooter's design seems to be inspired by the Kinetic Honda ZX. This is visible in the form of a rather boxy headlamp design with minimalist side panels and a slim design for the apron. Taking a closer look, it also seems to have a faux flyscreen and rectangular LED reflector headlights. Meanwhile, the turn indicators have a look similar to the older Kinetic logo. Moving ahead, the Kinetic electric scooter also gets a flat floorboard and a seemingly bulky body with rather flat side panels without any curves or creases. This might mean that the EV will get a rather big battery pack. These hint that scooter might enter the territory of models like TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, Ather Rizta, Hero Vida V2, and others. The electric scooter seems to be equipped with a hub-mounter motor, something that we have seen on multiple models of the brand. Along with it, the EV gets dual telescopic front suspension and dual shock absorbers are the rear end. There is also a box-section swingarm. It holds the ground using tires wrapped on triple-spoke alloy wheels. Braking is the responsibility of a disc brake at the front, while the rear end seems to have a drum brake.
