vivo X500: Dimensity 9600M CPU, 50MP LYTIA 828 camera, 7,500mAh

vivo’s latest flagship, the vivo X500, has been introduced in China. The vivo X500 is the cheapest of vivo’s new flagship line, which also consists of the X500 Pro and the X500 Pro Max . This one is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9600M processor, which is said to be simply a rebranded Dimensity 9500, instead of being completely new and more powerful like the Dimensity 9600 Pro that the X500 Pro models have. On the upside, it has a bigger 7,500mAh battery than the X500 Pro’s 6,510mAh. It also has the same 90W wired and 50W wireless charging. It comes with a fairly standard 6.59-inch 2K AMOLED display with an extra smooth 144Hz refresh rate and 4,000 nits of peak brightness. While its bigger brothers enjoy a custom main sensor and support for the ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra, the X500 still has a respectable set of cameras. There’s the 50-megpaixel LYTIA 828 main shooter, 64-megapixel telephoto, and 50-megapixel JN1 ultra-wide. ...

Sei Crypto Wallet to come pre-installed on Xiaomi phones

Xiaomi and The Sei Development Foundation, a non-profit that promotes the Sei network, have entered a global partnership that aims to promote mainstream blockchain adoption. From 2026, Xiaomi phones available outside mainland China and the United States will come pre-installed with a wallet and crypto discovery app developed by Sei Labs. This would definitely help increase the adoption of the network as Xiaomi is one of the biggest smartphone vendors in the world, just behind Samsung and Apple. Participating phones will be able to conduct peer-to-peer payments, explore Web3 products, and access decentralized applications without the need to download third-party apps. What’s more, Sei plans to implement stablecoin payments in over 20,000 Xiaomi stores, starting in Hong Kong and the European Union. Sei Labs aims to “build a decentralized NASDAQ” and targets to accommodate 200,000 transactions per second as it aims to shift the financial ecosystem on-chain. To make it possible, th...

Following a long break from solo adventures, two major new games in the Tomb Raider series were revealed at The Game Awards 2025. The last time players controlled Lara in a core series game was 2018’s Shadow of the Tomb Raider.

Fans can expect a visual overhaul for Lara’s first journey, which the announcement suggests will still include prehistoric creatures. This remake is planned for launch in 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC. Following that will be Tomb Raider: Catalyst , an entirely new story set for release in 2027....
