Honor had a busy day at MWC 2026 on Monday, showcasing its Augmented Human Intelligence (AHI) vision and ALPHA PLAN that seeks to transform the company into a leader in human-centric AI ecosystems. Besides unveiling its highly anticipated and rather quirky Robot Phone, the Chinese company also introduced MWC attendees to its first-ever humanoid robot, the somewhat unimaginatively named Honor Robot. Honor’s bipedal bot took to the stage during a special event, performing a dance routine alongside some professional human dancers who, as they pulled their impressive moves, may have been wondering how long it’ll be before they’re replaced by…
For the last couple of years, the mid-range smartphone pitch has been simple: offer a rounded package without making the obvious compromises. A good screen, solid battery life, and decent performance go a long way. That’s why the iPhone 17e vs Pixel 10a matchup is a bit spicy. Google’s Pixel 10a still seems like a sensible pick; familiar, practical, and easy to recommend. But Apple’s iPhone 17e is doing something disruptive, which is making the “budget iPhone” feel like the real deal. And that’s what makes the Pixel 10a look worse. The 128GB era isn’t dead, but Apple just made…
After months of leaks and speculation, Apple has officially unveiled its latest budget iPhone today. As expected, the iPhone 17e looks largely the same as its predecessor, but introduces a handful of meaningful upgrades while keeping the price unchanged. The iPhone 17e packs Apple’s A19 chip, the same processor powering the flagship iPhone 17, delivering a significant boost in performance and efficiency over last year’s model. The device also features the C1X modem, which Apple claims is 2x faster than the C1 modem found in the iPhone 16e. Apple addressed one of the biggest complaints users had with the iPhone…

The Sonic the Hedgehog film franchise has emerged as one of the unlikeliest of success stories in the video game adaptation space. Originally a laughing stock thanks to its now-infamous original character model of the series’ star, the team reworked the character model and doubled down on action, comedy, and heart to deliver one of the biggest ever film franchises based on a video game. Following the success of Sonic the Hedgehog 3, which introduced Keanu Reeves as Shadow and grossed nearly $500 million at the worldwide box office, series director Jeff Fowler has shared that Sonic the Hedgehog 4…

TCL is taking another swing at making phone screens easier on the eyes. At MWC 2026, the company unveiled the next generation of its Nxtpaper display technology, this time built on an AMOLED panel.
