It’s really okay if you can’t keep track of Motorola‘s many flavors of Droid phone anymore. Four have been released this year alone: the Droid X2, Droid 3, Droid Bionic and Droid RAZR. Get ready to add a fifth to the pile too, as the Droid 4 has been revealed, detailed and tentatively dated for a late 2011 release.

The news comes by way of leaked info and specs obtained by Droid Life. It looks like the plan right now is to release the Droid 4 on Verizon on December 8, though consider that nothing more than a rumor until the company officially confirms it.

The device itself is very much real, however, as you can see in the images above. It’s like a mash-up of the Droid 3 and the RAZR, with a 1.2 GHz dual-core processor, 1 GB of RAM, a 4-inch screen and a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. There’s one notable difference, however, and it’s the one that Droid fans have been waiting for: 4G connectivity. The Droid brings you your data at a blazing fast rate thanks to its ability to make use of Verizon’s 4G LTE network. Stay tuned for further details, like price and a confirmed release date, once the official announcements roll in.

GrandPad, the Android tablet designed for seniors, has been around for years. However, it's not something I've ever been able to try for myself. I had a chance to change that at CES 2025, so I did.

What I discovered is a surprisingly competent senior-focused Android tablet, and one that now has a splash of AI to boot. Here's what I learned during my hands-on time with the GrandPad.

This phone is a selfie superstar, but I can’t recommend it
The Huawei Nova 13 Pro's selfie cameras in action.

Selfies and vlogging are the Huawei Nova 13 Pro’s forte, and I apologize in advance for the fact that you’re going to have to look at my visage to see its ability for yourself. But thankfully, the rear camera is also really good, so our sample photos don’t only feature yours truly.

Spending time with it has been really interesting, as it has shown me that despite other factors, Huawei has lost none of its photographic ability. Still, I don't think it's a phone for most people. Here's why.

Conflicting reports on the Galaxy S25 Slim have me worried
The Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra's camera lenses.

The Galaxy S25 Slim has been the subject of much discussion and speculation, but the latest leaks suggest it won't be coming to the US market — at least through any US-based carriers. It could still be available in different ways.

Evan Blass, a tipster responsible for a large amount of the information we know about the S25 series, posted on X that the S25 Slim "will almost certainly not be offered through US carriers. In the markets where it is offered, expect it to be positioned between the S25 Plus and Ultra, marketing- and price-wise."
