Google’s Pixel phones already come with a USB-C port and with the Pixel 7 (review) featuring the USB 3.2 interface which has a fair number of advantages such as faster data transfer and connectivity with external devices.

Sony’s Xperia 1 Mark V is a flagship smartphone, through and through. Therefore, Sony also charges a hefty $1,399 for a phone that receives only up to 3 years of updates. Does this add up? A nextpit review of what is perhaps the most beautiful and uneconomical new Android flagship will reveal the truth.
While Asus planned to announce the Zenfone 10 on June 29, it appears that additional leaks will not stop coming out less than a week before its unveiling.
