Who asked for Xiaomi's portless concept phone?

Xiaomi’s portless phone may just be a concept, but there’s little doubt that it ruffled some feathers. The absence of basics like buttons or a side frame is audacious even for a company well-known for pushing boundaries. Virtually all the ‘rules’ of phone design have been thrown away, and that’s leaving some people livid.

Best LG V20 cases - Android Authority

The LG V20 features the perfect blend of the company’s last two flagships, the G5 and V10, with elements like a metal build and dual camera setup taken from the former, and features like a secondary display and MIL-STD 810G certification for impact and drop protection that were available with the latter.

Fitbit Charge 3 update brings quick replies, new tiles to Dashboard

TL;DR Fitbit is rolling out quick replies and the ability to accept/reject calls from the Charge 3. The company also announced that the Special Edition model is now on sale.

The question is whether the new handset does enough to stand out in today’s competitive marketplace. Photography, design, and performance have all been knocked up a notch this year.

Mysterious Xiaomi Mi Band 7 Pro leaks

TL;DR A new leak suggests there could be a Xiaomi Mi Band 7 Pro on the way. It is unclear what would make this model better than the regular Mi Band 7. It’s possible this could launch in July alongside the rumored Xiaomi 12 Ultra. Earlier this month, Xiaomi took the wraps off its latest budget-focused fitness tracker, the Mi Band 7. As expected, this was yet another reliably cheap but fully featured tracker.
