nubia Red Magic 10 Pro unveiled, S25 series to come on Jan 22? Week 46 in review

2024-11-17

Nubia unveiled the Red Magic 10 Pro and 10 Pro+ this week, both with a Snapdragon 8 Elite nubia calls an "Extreme Edition".

The pair mostly shares the same specs. The main difference is the battery and charging - the 10 Pro has a 6,500mAh battery with 80W charging, while the 10 Pro+ ups it to a 7,050mAh silicon-nitride pack with 120W charging. The nubia Red Magic 10 Pro+ also has either 16GB or 24GB of RAM and 512GB or 1TB of storage. The non-Pro tops out at 12GB and 512GB.

The nubia Red Magic 10 Pro and 10 Pro+ are on pre-order now and will ship on November 18.

We"ve heard multiple conflicting reports on when the Galaxy S25 series is coming out. An earlier one suggested January 25. Now two separate Korean media reports point to January 22 or January 23.

Rumor has it both Apple and Samsung are working on Slim versions of their flagships for 2025. Reportedly the iPhone 17 Slim will measure 6mm (compared to 7.8mm on the non-Pro iPhones and 8.3mm on the Pros). It will use a 6.6-inch screen using a new OLED panel. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo expects the Slim to account for 5 to 10% of iPhone shipments next year.

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim will be replacing the S25 FE and it will be a trial design that could be adopted for the S26 series (if it proves popular, of course). Both the iPhone 17 Slim and Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim are expected in the second half of 2025.

Apple"s latest Mac mini 2024 has been hot since it launched for being a very prudent upgrade thanks to the new base M4. Unsurprisingly, it"s not easily serviceable (no Apple product is). Also not a shocker, it has no user upgradeable parts.
