Flashback: some crazy phones had three or even four SIM card slots

How many SIM slots does your phone have? In some regions dual-SIM models are quite popular, though in recent years eSIM (embedded SIM) has started taking over from the secondary slot for an external card. Many carriers offer low cost roaming or there is no roaming at all (e.g. within the EU), so having the option to pop in a extra card from a local carrier has become less important. But this is now, a decade ago some makers weren’t sure how many phone lines you may need in your pocket. One? Two? Four? Let’s start with the loneliest number.

Weekly poll results: Huawei Mate Xs 2 struggles to justify its price tag

Most people feel that foldables are too expensive – not that we had any doubt that is still the case, but last week’s poll reaffirms that belief. Unfortunately for the Huawei Mate Xs 2, it’s not only the price that is dissuading people from wanting one, the outward-folding design may have been a bad idea. A common theme emerged while reading through the comments – €2,000 for a phone with a year old chipset, no 5G and no Google Play Store is too much. The lack of access to parts and services was caused by trade sanctions against Huawei and the situation is unlikely to change...

We doubt that there are many of you holding your breath waiting for HTC's next flagship phone given that it's been a while since the company released a high-end device.

This time around, HTC's flagship will likely be related to the company's...

Report: Apple AirPods Pro 2 won't be affected by supply chain constraints

One of the most renowned Apple analysts, Ming-Chi Kuo, says that Apple's future AirPods Pro 2 are right on schedule and will be unaffected by the supply chain constraints that China's manufacturing is experiencing right now. That's mainly because Apple has shifted some of its production to Vietnam, where the COVID-19 situation is vastly different from China's. This, in turn, means that the pair will be introduced sometime in the second half of this year, with mass production starting around that time too. In addition to that report, Ming-Chi Kuo believes that the AirPods Pro 2 will...

The model numbers in question are 221113C and 2210132C - those are for the Chinese market while their global counterparts are 2211133G and 2210132G, hence the letter "G" at the end.
