vivo X500 Pro: Dimensity 9600 Pro CPU, 6,510mAh battery, Custom 50MP Sony sensor

vivo officially announced the X500 series in China. For this one, let’s focus on the vivo X500 Pro. The vivo X500 Pro now sits between the base vivo X500 and now the current top dog, the vivo X500 Pro Max . The two Pro models do share many qualities: they are the first to use the new MediaTek Dimensity 9600 Pro flagship chipset. They also use the same 50-megapixel Sony LYTIA L910 sensor that was co-developed by vivo themselves. The Pro Max has gimbal-grade 3-degree optical image stabilization, while the X500 Pro settles for 1.5 degrees. Instead of a 200-megapixel periscope, the non-Max model settles for a respectable 64-megapixel telephoto shooter with optical image stabilization. There’s still the 50-megapixel ultra-wide, 50-megapixel selfie-snapper, and support for the new 400mm ZEISS Telephoto Extender Gen 2 Ultra. Both Pro models use a similar 2K LTPO AMOLED panel with a high 144Hz refresh rate, albeit the X500 Pro is much smaller at 6.36 inche...

Both Pro models use a similar 2K LTPO AMOLED panel with a high 144Hz refresh rate, albeit the X500 Pro is much smaller at 6.36 inches than the Pro Max’s 6.85-inch display.

Being smaller also meant a smaller 6,510mAh (vs 8,000mAh) battery, although all X500 models do share the same 90W wired and 40W wireless charging. They ship with the latest Android 17-based OriginOS 7.

Amazon announces two new Tomb Raider games

Get ready to dust off your climbing axes. Lara Croft, the legendary treasure hunter, is returning to consoles and computers in a big way. 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. Now, publisher Amazon Games and longtime developer Crystal Dynamics are bringing her back with a pair of distinct projects. The first is Tomb Raider: Legacy of Atlantis , a full remake of the original 1996 game that started it all. It is being built with Unreal Engine 5 by Crystal Dynamics and Flying Wild Hog. 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....

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...
