After years of looking for Google mobiles that were only launched in other countries, it was finally our turn last year. That’s when the Google Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 7 and Pixel 7a were released and performed very well in our tests. We also got the Pixel Buds Pro earbuds, but not the Pixel Watch. …
“Don’t mess with a working system,” as the saying goes, and Sony’s mobile strategy with the Sony Xperia 1 V is as usual. Sony is targeting the geeks and semi-professionals who are happy to take a turn with the manual camera settings, care about high-resolution sound and could easily stream for hours on Twitch while …
Although Asus is a large electronics manufacturer, the company is one of the smallest in the mobile phone market.

Asus is not among the major mobile phone manufacturers. But when it comes to specialised gaming phones, they’ve found a niche where they can compete.
