The Poco C71 will be launched on April 4 in India via Flipkart, and the brand itself started teasing it yesterday. Today, the device has been spotted in the Geekbench database. The listing has confirmed the fact that it’s powered by the Unisoc T7250 SoC, which sort of confirms our theory that it’s just a rebranded Redmi A5, since that model uses the same chipset too. The Poco ran Geekbench with 4GB of RAM, and it will also have a 6GB option. It will run Android 15. Flipkart has already revealed that the C71 comes with a 6.88-inch LCD screen with HD+ resolution and a 120 Hz refresh…

But in just a couple of weeks, a new Galaxy phone will […]

Samsung’s first tri-fold device (which might be called Galaxy G Fold) has been in the rumors a lot this year, and now it seems like it will get a release later in 2025. That’s the good news. The bad news is that it could be limited to just two countries. We’ve seen this play out before with the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, which only launched in Korea and China last year, and incidentally those are the two countries where the tri-fold will be available too.

Visa wants to pay Apple approximately $100 million to be the new payment network for the Apple Card, reports The Wall Street Journal. As of right now, the ‌Apple Card‌ is on the Mastercard payment network, but that is set to change because Apple is ending its partnership with Goldman Sachs.

Both American Express and Visa are vying to replace Mastercard as Apple’s card services provider, while Mastercard is aiming to retain its position. Apple apparently plans to choose a new ‌Apple Card‌ network before it selects a partner to replace Goldman Sachs as the ‌Apple Card‌’s issuing bank, and competition is intense. Visa is offering Apple a $100 million upfront payment, while American Express is “in the mix” and Mastercard is “fiercely trying” to retain its role.

Apple and Goldman Sachs have been working to dissolve their partnership since 2023, with Goldman Sachs planning to exit the consumer banking market. JPMorgan Chase and Synchrony Financial are in talks with Apple to take over for Goldman Sachs, but American Express has also been aiming to become the issuer and network of the ‌Apple Card‌. Apple needs both an issuing bank for the ‌Apple Card‌ and a payment network that facilitates transactions.

Goldman Sachs and Apple have worked together on the ‌Apple Card‌ since its 2019 launch, and have also teamed up for the high-yield Apple Savings account. Apple has not been happy with Goldman Sachs because of customer service issues caused by long wait times for disputed ‌Apple Card‌ transactions and savings account withdrawals.

The U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau even launched an investigation into Goldman Sachs due to the customer complaints, which led to tension, so both companies are eager to end their relationship.

The ‌Apple Card‌ has over 12 million users in the United States, with approximately $20 billion in balances.

Motorola is launching the first member of its Edge 60 series, the Edge 60 Fusion, in just a few hours. While this is the first Edge 60 device we’re getting, it’s far from the last, as the Edge 60 and Edge 60 Pro are also expected to arrive later this year. Today the Edge 60 Pro has been spotted in a couple of live images that look like they were captured during a certification process of some sort – possibly at the FCC. The Edge 60 Pro has a curved-side display as you can see, and a fake leather back in this gray/black colorway. The Pro will also be offered in purple, blue, and…
