This week’s launches include the OnePlus Nord CE 5G, Sony’s WF1000 XM4 wireless earbuds and Apple’s WWDC 2021, where Timmy & Co spaffed out iOS 15. So here’s a bald tit banging on about that tech news stuff and answering your burning questions. Plus a tribute to the late, great Freddie off of Rod, Jane and Freddie.
The Nord CE 5G is a ‘core edition’ version of the original OnePlus budget phone from last year, with similar specs but costing just £299 in the UK. You once again have a 90Hz AMOLED screen, but this time performance is provided by the Snapdragon 750G chipset (and up to 12GB RAM). Camera tech is a 64MP primary sensor, plus ultra-wide and mono shooters. Full unboxing coming Monday at 8am when the embargo lifts, followed by a OnePlus Nord CE 5G review!
The Sony WF-1000XM4 true wireless earbuds apparently sport improved noise cancelling and audio smarts, plus 8 hours of battery life. Again, I’m hoping to review soon.
As for Apple fans, WWDC 2021 revealed lots of iOS 15’s best new features. Not bothered about FaceTime, but the new notifications and Maps app look good. Hooray!
