HONOR experiments with smartphone battery technology that pushes silicon-carbon cells to their limits. The company tests a device featuring 10,000mAh capacity that surpasses typical Android tablet specifications. Digital Chat Station reports on Weibo that this prototype represents the upper boundary of current battery innovation. MediaTek's Dimensity 8500 processor will power the experimental handset rather than flagship silicon. TSMC manufactures this chipset using 4nm N4P processes with eight Cortex-A725 cores and Mali-G720 graphics.
The device remains in New Product Introduction phases, which suggests concept-stage development. HONOR may alter the final battery capacity before commercial release. Mid-range positioning indicates...
Colorful has posted four RTX 5090 D V2 graphics card models on the JD commerce platform ahead of tomorrow's China launch.

Smilegate announces Crossfire Rainbow, a horror-themed tactical first-person shooter that marks another attempt to revitalize the franchise. The developer previously struggled with CrossfireX, which received harsh criticism and closed after fifteen months on Xbox consoles.

The company also released Crossfire Legion, a real-time strategy game developed by Blackbird Interactive that garnered better reviews than its predecessor. However, Legion never established a strong player base and faces removal from Steam next week. Limited information exists about Rainbow's gameplay mechanics...
Intel chief executive Lip-Bu Tan will meet President Trump at the White House this Monday to address concerns about his Chinese business connections. The meeting follows Trump's public call for Tan's removal after Senator Cotton sent a letter to Intel's board questioning the CEO's background.

Cadence recently settled with the Justice Department for $140 million over these violations. The senator also highlighted Tan's investment stakes in firms connected to China's Communist Party and military.
Tan's venture capital firm Waiden International held positions in approximately...
