In the last 12 months, mechanical drivetrians have been seeing a massive burst of popularity, and for good reason - they're the best they have ever been - thanks to brands like Vivo and Madrone. Mechanical shifting is reliable, easy to fix, and provides crisp, instant shifting, and some of the more bespoke options on the market even add a touch of class to a bike build, thanks to their refined, yet utilitarian aesthetics.

DJI's Osmo Pocket 3, launched back in 2023, has been an incredible hit with vloggers and YouTubers, thanks to its good video recording quality, gimbal stabilization, and pocketable form factor. DJI is expected to come out with a highly anticipated successor any day now, but in the meantime it looks like it's getting some new competition. vivo has confirmed to Chinese media outlets that it is working on a vlogging camera of its own.

This will be the typical advertised capacity, whereas the rated capacity is 6,870 mAh. The battery will last 1,600 cycles before it goes below 80% of its initial capacity. The phone will support 55W wired charging, and it's IP68 certified for dust and water resistance. It received a C (on a scale of A to E) when it comes to repairability, and it's rated B for drop resistance.

The vivo Pad5, with a Dimensity 9300+ chipset and various RAM/storage options, is designed for video calls, note-taking, and comes with AI capabilities.

"With the addition of the Z10 Lite, iQOO continues to expand its portfolio, reinforcing its strategy of offering various models tailored to different markets and preferences."
