Verizon has added a new HTC smartphone to its range, called the One Remix, making it sound funky, cool, and new. While it’s certainly not without interest, the One Remix is actually Verizon’s own version of the previously announced One Mini 2. The most striking difference between the two is all the Verizon branding slapped over the device. You won’t be forgetting to which carrier you’re connected in a hurry.

Ignore the Verizon logos, and the One Remix looks to be identical to the One Mini 2. It has a 4.5-inch touchscreen with a 720p resolution, and runs Android 4.4.2. The official image shows Blinkfeed running on the phone, which is part of HTC’s Sense user interface. Verizon says a selection of apps come pre-installed, but only mentions Twitter by name, along with an unnamed calendar and news app.

Flip the phone over and you won’t find the Duo Camera which is fitted to the full-size One M8, but a 13-megapixel lens instead. It’s accompanied by an LED flash. Above the screen is a 5-megapixel camera for taking a decent selfie. A MicroSD card slot will boost the 16GB of internal storage space by up to 128GB, if you have a card that size hanging around. Finally, the phone has HTC’s dual BoomSound speakers fitted to the front panel, and the phone is ready to connect to Verizon’s XLTE network.

The One Remix presumably shares the same metal chassis as the One Mini 2, which has a plastic surround to help lower the price compared to the all-metal One M8. Verizon will sell the One Remix for $100 with a new two-year contract, and it’ll be on sale in-store and online from July 24.

OnePlus describes the OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite as, “exuding a simple charm,” and in the world of folding smartphones and $1,500 iPhone models, there are probably a lot of people looking for a phone exactly like it.

If you’re new to the Nord series, these occupy the lower end of the market compared to the flagship OnePlus 11 and are released outside of the U.S., where instead the company releases phones like the OnePlus N300.

You can now try the OnePlus 11 for free for 100 days — here’s how

Buying a new smartphone is always a gamble in terms of customer satisfaction — mainly because they cost so much and can be so different from the device that the buyer is currently using.

To combat this, OnePlus is giving customers the chance to try the OnePlus 11 entirely risk-free. Starting today, the company is running the "100 Days No Regret" program, which allows OnePlus 11 buyers to use the new flagship for up to 100 days and still be eligible to return it for a full refund.

Why now is the perfect time for the OnePlus Pad

OnePlus, the popular smartphone brand, is dipping its toes into the tablet market with the launch of the all-new, gorgeously designed OnePlus Pad. The move comes at a time when Google is making significant changes to Android to improve the tablet experience for users (plus laptops and foldables, too!).

With the launch of the OnePlus Pad, OnePlus is poised to benefit from these changes, while also feeding into its own broader ecosystem of devices and services. At the same time, the launch coincides with slowing growth in the tablet market, making it a risky move for the company -- but one which could pay off well.
