Sony has detailed the availability and pricing of its new X lineup for the US. Breaking up with the carrier model, the smartphones will be sold by major retailers like Best Buy, Amazon, and B&H, instead. The Xperia X will be the one to pave the way, with a release date set for June 26, and a price tag of $550. If you want to go on either side of the X in terms of price and features, you'd need to wait until July 17, when the Xperia XA and Xperia X Performance will become available, at $280 and $700, respectively. And then a whole month after the pioneer, the Xperia XA Ultra phablet will arrive, on July 24 to be precise. The 6-incher will set you back $370.

Intel announced today at Computex its first 10-core CPU. The Core i7-6950X Extreme Edition runs at 3GHz, but can boost up to 3.5GHz and has 25MB of cache. The boost is controlled by the company's new Turbo Boost 3.0 technology. To put it in perspective, Intel says the new CPU is 35% faster than the last-gen Core i7-5960X and twice as fast in 3D rendering than the quad-core i7 6700K. Naturally all of this goodness will cost you an arm and a leg. The fastest CPU that Intel has ever made in the company's own words carries a price tag of $1,723.

The Galaxy Note6 (or perhaps Note7) is the next big thing we're expecting from Samsung, likely some time in August. A couple of versions are rumored to be in development and we now have some tangible (sort of) proof of the potential curved-screen version, courtesy of a customs import listing on the Zauba website. Mind you, it's not the actual phone that's entered India, but a metal mask for mobile phone production line, whatever that may be. It is the quoted model name that gives grounds for interpretation - SM-N935G. The current Galaxy Note5 carries a model number SM-N920, the Galaxy S7 is SM-G930, and then the Galaxy S7 edge is SM-G935. The obvious logic would then indicate that the SM-N935 would be the next Note, and in edge flavor at that. Now there's the less exciting option that the SM-N935 might be the 'Lite' variant of the upcoming phablet, but we'd rather believe the former. Thanks to kannan for bringing this in! S

Asus just revealed a cool new line of smartphones, as well as new laptops that aim squarely at beating Apple’s MacBooks. But the most forwarding-thinking device that Asus introduced at Computex 2016 today is an actual robot. Called Zenbo, Asus’ new toy looks like a cross between a vacuum cleaner and an old iMac G4. But perhaps toy is not the right word here. Asus is billing Zenbo as a robotic helper that can provide “assistance, entertainment, and companionship.” The target audience is mainly children and elderly, who could benefit from having a mobile assistant following along, helping with basic digital tasks or just keeping them company. Think a tablet on wheels, with voice controls, and a lot more brains.

Tablet sales may be on the wane, but LG is not ready to give up on this once-hyped product category just yet. LG just launched the third generation of the G Pad series in South Korea and the tablet is already available from several Canadian carriers.

The ZUK Z2 arrives tactfully late after the Z2 Pro. It has a metal frame and a honking big battery, Android 6.0 Marshmallow and a Snapdragon 820 chipset, all served up at CNY 1,800 ($275/€245).

The most profitable company on the face of the earth is confronted with a nearly unprecedented rough patch, as mobile device sales in general and iPhone demand in particular appears to dwindle, especially on the Western hemisphere. China and India could come to Apple’s rescue, at least until the radically redesigned AMOLED iPhone 7s of next year enters the picture, but as long as Tim Cook refuses to “lower the quality bar” and pander to budget-conscious audiences, share in the world’s two largest markets is unlikely to dramatically build up.

Is it still fair game to call Xiaomi a startup? It’s had the typical meteoric rise that successful firms have had and it’s getting out of its first major rut in sales with the release of a new flagship or two. The Chinese manufacturer’s CEO, Lei Jun, is thanking supporters for helping it top the home market in April. Specifically, the Sino Market Research report said that Xiaomi got 26 percent of the market. It didn’t signify whether the numbers were for sales or shipments.

YU has launched its newest smartphone in India, the Yunicorn. The Yunicorn is a mid-range smartphone that will compete against the Redmi Note 3, and even manages to look a lot like it. The phone has a 5.5-inch 1080p display, MediaTek Helio P10 processor, 4GB of RAM, 32GB expandable storage, 13 megapixel rear camera with PDAF, 5 megapixel front camera, fingerprint sensor, and a 4000mAh battery. The phone also comes with a new software layer that YU calls Android On Steroids (AOS), that is more or less stock Android Lollipop but with a handful of features added on top. This includes the Around YU 2.0 service that lets you order food, shop online, book flights and hotels, and call for cabs without having to install individual apps. YU also announced their new YU Wallet service for online payments. The YU Yunicorn will be available in silver, graphite, and gold for INR 12,999 ($192), exclusively on Flipkart. Registrations start today and the phone will go on sale on J

After undergoing the thorough leak treatment, the Sony Xperia E5 was just made official today, without too much fuss. The handset can now be found on the company's website, along with a confirmation of its previously rumored specs. Just as expected, the Sony Xperia E5 is equipped with a 5-inch 720p display and powered by Mediatek's MTK6735 with four 1.3GHz Cortex-A53 cores. There's 1.5GB of RAM, plus 16GB of expandable storage to finish the picture of an entry-level device.

As you might already know, the LeEco Le 2 and Le Max 2 are expected to launch in India next week (June 8 to be precise). However, turns out, the former is already available for purchase in the country, although unofficially - it's being sold by a local seller on eBay India. The handset carries a price tag of INR 22,999, which translates into around $340 at current exchange rates. The official price of the device isn't currently known, and likely won't be revealed by the company before launch. While shipping is free, only one unit is left in the stock (a total of two were up for grabs anyway). So, if you want to make a purchase, you'll have to act really, really fast.
