Coinbase, the largest cryptocurrency exchange based in the U.S., said Thursday that criminals had improperly obtained personal data on the exchange’s customers for use in crypto-stealing scams and were demanding a $20 million payment not to publicly release the info. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said in a social media post that criminals had bribed some of the company’s customer service agents who live outside the U.S. to hand over personal data on customers, like names, dates of birth and partial social security numbers. “(The stolen data) allows them to conduct social engineering attacks where they can call our customers impersonating Coinbase customer support and try to trick them into sending their funds to the attackers,” Armstrong said. Social engineering is a popular hacking strategy, as humans tend to be the weakest link in any network. Many large companies have suffered hacks and data breaches as a result of such scams in recent years. DoorDash delivery driver pleads guilty to stealing $2.5 million in deliveries scam Coinbase did not specify how many customers had their data stolen or fell prey to social engineering scams. But the company did pledge to reimburse any who did. Coinbase shares fell 6% in trading around midday. The shares are still up about 22% this month due to gains in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. In a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission, Coinbase estimated that it would have to spend between $180 million to $400 million “relating to remediation costs and voluntary customer reimbursements relating to this incident.” The SEC filing said that the company had, “in previous months,” detected some of its customer service agents “accessing data without business need.” Those employees had been fired, and the company said it stepped up its fraud prevention efforts. Coinbase said it received an email from the attackers on Sunday demanding a ransom of $20 million worth of bitcoin not to publicly release the customer data they had stolen. Armstrong said the company was refusing to pay the ransom and would instead offer a $20 million bounty for anyone who provided information that led to the attackers’ arrest.

A former food delivery driver has admitted to participating in a scheme to defraud DoorDash out of more than $2.5 million by arranging for the company to pay for fake deliveries, according to federal prosecutors. Sayee Chaitanya Reddy Devagiri, 30, of Newport Beach, California, pleaded guilty on Tuesday in federal court in San Jose to one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud, the U.S. Attorney’s Office announced. Prosecutors said Devagiri collaborated with three others during 2020 and 2021 to carry out the scam, which targeted the San Francisco-based food delivery platform. Prosecutors said Devagiri used customer accounts to place high-value orders and then used an employee’s credential to gain access to DoorDash software and manually reassign the orders to driver accounts that he and others controlled. Devagiri then caused the fraudulent driver accounts to report that the orders had been delivered when they had not, and manipulated DoorDash’s computer systems to pay the fraudulent driver accounts for the nonexistent deliveries, officials said. Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro Review: Can It Survive the Competition? Devagiri would then use DoorDash software to change the orders from “delivered” status to “in process” status and manually reassign the orders to driver accounts he and others controlled, beginning the process again, prosecutors said. The now-former employee in the scam pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit wire fraud in November 2023 and admitted to being involved in the scheme, prosecutors said. Devagiri is the third defendant to be convicted of his role in this conspiracy. He faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison and a fine of $250,000. He is scheduled to return to court on Sept. 16.        

Xiaomi launched the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro in China on April 24, 2025. Coming at a mid-range budget segment, the phone positions itself among popular choices like the Vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo, Oppo Reno 13 F, Motorola Edge 60 Pro, etc. Here is a detailed review of the Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro’s features, performance, pros, cons, and pricing compared to other similarly priced smartphones. Key Features and Specifics of Redmi Turbo 4 Pro . Design The Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro has a minimal and polished look that resembles the iPhone 16 series from many angles. Its aluminium alloy frame measures 6.42 inches by 3.07 inches by 0.31 inches and gleams in a silver reflection under light. Despite its linear design, the phone feels heavy, having a giant battery inside and weighing around 219g. By structure, the phone is a glass-front, metal-mid, and glass-back sandwich. Though the rear-glass panel may grab fingerprints easily, it’s usually a pristine and transparent panel. The finely finished frames around the sides and the glittering glass covers contribute to a premium yet clutter-free, solid aesthetic. Read more: vivo iQoo Z10 Turbo Review: Is It the Mid-Range Beast You Are Looking For? On the top left corner of the back panel is a vertical camera stage with a rounded top and bottom. On it lie two circular lens holders decorated with an RGB light surrounding each. The lights come with customisability options that let users personalise colours. The front camera sits in a slim punch hole at the top middle.  Users will get an IP68-rated water and dust resistance that allows for shallow water dipping and fair durability. The usual buttons, microphone, speaker, and charging ports are placed around the sides, keeping a perfect spatial balance. However, users looking to plug in their headphones will be disheartened as the phone lacks the 3.5mm port. The overall design of the Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro offers nothing unique. Similar iPhone-inspired looks with a few unique touches on the camera panels, colours, and branding have become prevalent among Chinese smartphones. The Oppo Reno 13 F and Vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo have their own custom touches but don’t fall far from the trend. The only exception is the Motorola Edge 60 Pro, which inherits Motorola’s usual vogue. The Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro only surpasses other models in terms of weight. Read more: Motorola Edge 60 Pro Review: Know the Pros and Cons Display The Turbo 4 Pro's screen is a 6.83-inch AMOLED panel. It can render sharper and clearer visuals at a 1280 x 2772 pixel resolution. Graphics rendered on the screen are colour accurate and vivid, thanks to its 68B distinct colour depiction ability. Besides such a massive display, which is the biggest at this price, the phone keeps the chin and bezels super narrow, delivering a vast viewing field. If nothing else, users will get a great visual experience from the phone. Pixels are placed at a 447 ppi rate, which ensures crispness and clarity. Maximising the experience, several dynamic visual technologies exist, like Dolby Vision, HDR10+, and HBM. Touch response is also satisfactory with its 120Hz refresh rate. Daylight can’t dim out the panel’s lustre, as it has a peak brightness level of 3200 nits.  The use of an AMOLED panel is common for most phones at this price; for example, the Oppo Reno 13 F and Vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo. Only the Motorola Edge 60 Pro comes on top with its curved POLED. Both the Vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo and the Motorola Edge 60 Pro have come with brightness levels higher than 4000 nits. Read more: OnePlus Nord 5: What We Know So Far Cameras The Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro offers a rather simple camera setup. The rear camera module houses a 50MP wide-angle and an 8MP ultrawide sensor. The selfie camera is a 20MP lens.  Users willing to buy a phone in this price range expect more lenses with more power. Even though phones like the Vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo feature an even lower configuration: a 2MP depth with no ultrawide support and a 16MP front, the Motorola Edge 60 Pro has set the new benchmark in this range with a 50MP ultrawide, 10MP telephoto, and 50MP selfie.  It can capture a maximum of 4K and 1080 MP video footages with the main rear and front sensors, respectively. The Motorola Edge 60 Pro outperforms the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro, iQOO Z10 Turbo, and Reno13 F with its 4K video shooting feature. Read more: Best 10 Smartphones Releasing in May 2025 Hardware, Software, and Performance The Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro is among the few smartphones that feature a 4nm Qualcomm SM8735 Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chipset. While faster, Gen 4 drains more charge than the previous generation chipset. An Adreno 825 chipset comes along as a graphical processing unit. Five different variations of the phone offer diverse RAM and ROM combinations: 256GB ROM and 12GB RAM, 256GB ROM and 16GB RAM, 512GB ROM and 12GB RAM, 512GB ROM and 16GB RAM, and 1TB and 16GB RAM. Not to mention, offering a 1TB memory option, Redmi Turbo 4 Pro outwins the Edge 60 Pro, Turbo 4 Pro, Z10 Turbo, and Reno13 F. Like the iQOO Z10 Turbo, the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro sports the latest UFS 4.1 data transfer mechanism. Gaming on this phone gives a smooth experience, leveraging the full power of the robust CPU, an assisting GPU, and strong RAM. The experience gets more immersive with the vivid, chromatic, and touch-responsive display.  Read more: vivo V50 Lite Review: Does it offer value-for-money No other phone at this price offers higher efficiency than a Gen 4 chipset. Among competitors, the Oppo Reno 13 F’s Qualcomm SM6450 Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 and the Motorola Edge 60 Pro’s Mediatek Dimensity 8350 Extreme are notable. Battery and Charger The Xiaomi Turbo 4 Pro boasts a giant 7550 mAh battery that can run for 6 to 7 hours at a stretch even with extensive gaming sessions and media consumption. Backing this huge battery is a 90W superfast charger that takes a couple of hours or more to refill a depleted battery. The phone also offers a 22.5 mAh reverse charging system.  Even though there has been a noticeable trend among Chinese smartphones to come up with powerful batteries nowadays, only a few have as powerful as the one in the Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro. Only the vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo has a bigger one, 7620 mAh, among competitors.  Read more: Tecno Camon 40 Pro Review: Is It Worth It? Pros and Cons of Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro .

Cons - No 3.5mm headphone jack- Slightly heavier (219g) than most competitors- Basic dual rear camera setup- Rear glass grabs fingerprints easily- Lacks originality in design Price of Redmi Turbo 4 Pro in Bangladesh The Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro is not officially available in Bangladesh. In the Chinese market, the phone’s price starts from CNY 2199, equivalent to BDT 36,957. The currency conversion rate here is CNY 1 = BDT 16.81. However, the official price of the Redmi Turbo 4 Pro in Bangladesh may vary due to brand policy, tax, and other issues. Conclusion The Xiaomi Redmi Turbo 4 Pro blends premium design, a powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 chip, a vibrant AMOLED display, and high storage options into a mid-range package. Though camera features are modest, it's ideal for performance-focused users seeking flagship speed, crisp visuals, and durability without paying flagship prices.

U.S. chip maker Nvidia will partner with Saudi Arabia’s sovereign wealth fund-owned AI startup Humain and will ship 18,000 chips to the Middle Eastern nation to help power a new data center project. The partnership was revealed Tuesday as part of a White House trip to Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates. Saudi Arabia has been working to develop its artificial intelligence capacity and strengthen its cloud computing infrastructure with the help of foreign investment. “AI, like electricity and internet, is essential infrastructure for every nation,” said Jensen Huang, founder of Nvidia. “Together with Humain, we are building AI infrastructure for the people and companies of Saudi Arabia to realize the bold vision of the Kingdom.” Microsoft to lay off about 3% of workforce The cutting-edge Blackwell chips will be used in a 500 megawatt data center in Saudi Arabia, according to remarks at the Saudi-U.S. Investment Forum in Riyadh on Tuesday. The California company said its first deployment will use its GB300 Blackwell chips, which are among Nvidia’s most advanced AI chips at the moment, and which were only officially announced earlier this year.

Microsoft says it is laying off nearly 3% of its entire workforce. The tech giant didn't disclose the total amount of lost jobs but it will amount to about 6,000 people. Microsoft employed 228,000 full-time workers as of last June, the last time it reported its annual headcount. About 55% of those workers were in the US, reports AP. Microsoft said the layoffs will be across all levels and geographies but will focus on reducing management levels. Notices went out on Tuesday. OpenAI reverses course and says its nonprofit will continue to control its business Microsoft announced a smaller round of performance-based layoffs in January. But the 3% cuts will be Microsoft's biggest reported layoffs since early 2023, when the company cut 10,000 workers, almost 5% of its workforce, joining other tech companies that were scaling back their pandemic-era expansions. The latest layoffs come just weeks after Microsoft reported strong sales and profits that beat Wall Street expectations for the January-March quarter, which investors took as a dose of relief during a turbulent time for the tech sector and US economy.

Dua Lipa, Sir Elton John, Sir Ian McKellen and Florence Welch are among a list of stars calling on the prime minister to update copyright laws in a way that protects them from artificial intelligence. A letter signed by more than 400 British musicians, writers and artists, addressed to Sir Keir Starmer, says failing to give that protection would mean them "giving away" their work to tech firms. Also at risk, they write, is "the UK's position as a creative powerhouse". They want the PM to back an amendment to the Data (Use and Access) Bill that would require developers to be transparent with copyright owners about using their material to train AI models.   A government spokesperson said: "We want our creative industries and AI companies to flourish, which is why we're consulting on a package of measures that we hope will work for both sectors. "We're clear that no changes will be considered unless we are completely satisfied they work for creators," they added. Other signatories include author Kazuo Ishiguro, playwright David Hare, singers Kate Bush and Robbie Williams, as well as Coldplay, Tom Stoppard and Richard Curtis. Sir Paul McCartney, who told the BBC in January he was concerned about AI ripping off artists, has also signed the letter. "We are wealth creators, we reflect and promote the national stories, we are the innovators of the future, and AI needs us as much as it needs energy and computer skills," it states. They say their concerns can be met if the government backs an amendment proposed by Baroness Beeban Kidron ahead of a key vote in the House of Lords on Monday. Baroness Kidron's amendment, it says, would "allow both AI developers and creators to develop licensing regimes that will allow for human-created content well into the future." Advertisement Not everyone agrees with the artists' approach. Julia Willemyns, co-founder of the Centre for British Progress think tank, said such proposals could hamper the UK and its bid for growth. The measures would "do nothing to stop foreign firms from using content from the British creative industries," she told the BBC. "A restrictive copyright regime would offshore AI development, chill domestic innovation, and directly harm the UK economy," she said. However, the letter comes amid mounting concern from artists over the inclusion of their works, and material protected by copyright, in the data used to develop generative AI systems. These tools, which can produce new content in response to simple text prompts, have become increasingly popular and available to consumers. But their capabilities have been accompanied by concerns and criticism over their data use and energy demand. ·         What is AI, how does it work and what are the concerns about it? In February, artists including Annie Lennox and Damon Albarn released a silent album to protest about the government's proposed changes to copyright law. The government carried out a consultation around its proposal to allow developers to be able to use creators' content on the internet to help develop their models, unless the rights holders elect to "opt out". According to The Guardian, ministers were reconsidering the proposal following creator backlash. Mr Ishiguro pointed the BBC to an earlier statement in which he wrote, "why is it just and fair - why is it sensible - to alter our time-honoured copyright laws to advantage mammoth corporations at the expense of individual writers, musicians, film-makers and artists?" The Nobel Prize-winning author added that since then the only limited advance was that it now appeared the government had accepted the opt-out proposals were not likely to be workable, He thought a new consultation to find a fairer scheme was possible, though it remained to be seen how meaningful any consultation would be. "It's essential that they get this right," he wrote. MPs recently rejected a separate amendment tabled by Baroness Kidron that aimed to make AI developers accountable to UK copyright law. Now, she says transparency obligations for tech firms under the new proposed amendment could support the development of licensing agreements between creators and companies. "The UK is in a unique position to take its place as a global player in the international AI supply chain, but to grasp that opportunity requires the transparency provided for in my amendments, which are essential to create a vibrant licencing market," Baroness Kidron said. In their statement the government said: "It's vital we take the time to work through the range of responses to our consultation, but equally important that we put in the groundwork now as we consider the next steps. "That is why we have committed to publishing a report and economic impact assessment – exploring the broad range of issues and options on all sides of the debate." Advertisement  

A new software update prevented a third radar outage in the last two weeks at New Jersey's busy Newark airport when a telecommunications line failed again over the weekend, Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said Monday. At a news conference, Duffy also said the recent problems that have led to hundreds of cancellations and delays in Newark could have been avoided had action been taken by President Joe Biden's administration to better equip the air traffic control facility in Philadelphia — particularly after issues with the hardware in October and November that should have set off alarms. The delays continued at Newark Liberty International Airport on Monday evening with average backups of more than 1 1/2 hours. This time it wasn't caused by technical failures, but a shortage of air traffic controllers that has been made worse because several of them went on leave due after the first radar outage under a 45-day trauma leave, said Federal Aviation Administration spokesperson Kristen Alsop. The FAA had already restricted traffic into Newark after the first incident due to the staffing shortages. Those limits, designed to keep flights safe, combined with an ongoing runway construction project in Newark, has created lingering cancellations and delays. Later this week, the FAA will meet with all the airlines to discuss making those limits last into the summer. Trump administration fires top copyright official days after firing Librarian of Congress Duffy said the update the Federal Aviation Administration installed Friday night helped ensure the backup system worked on Sunday when there was another problem with the primary line coming into the air traffic control facility in Philadelphia. When a similar issue happened Friday and on April 28, the radar and communications systems went offline briefly, leaving controllers unable to see or talk to the planes. Even though the radar system stayed online Sunday, controllers were worried because of the two previous outages, so Duffy said they stopped all traffic at Newark airport for about 45 minutes as a precaution. Duffy said he will request an investigation into last year's move of Newark air traffic controllers from New York to Philadelphia to determine why more wasn't done to ensure there wouldn't be problems. Philadelphia is about 85 miles (137 kilometers) southwest of Newark. “The Biden-Buttigieg FAA bungled this move without properly hardening the telecom lines feeding the data, which was already well-known to be error-prone,” Duffy said. “Without addressing the underlying infrastructure, they added more risk to the system.” Duffy also said the FAA should have set up a new radar system for Newark in Philadelphia instead of piping the signal in from New York for controllers. Duffy and President Donald Trump have said that the problems in Newark are a prime example of why they developed a multibillion-dollar plan to overhaul that nation's air traffic control system, unveiled last week. Duffy blames the Biden administration for failing to do that, but those problems go back decades, even before the first Trump administration. An adviser to former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said Duffy should spend more time trying to deal with the nation's problems, and he defended the Biden administration's efforts to bolster air traffic controller hiring and make a down payment on dealing with some of the infrastructure problems. Google to pay $1.4 billion to settle Texas lawsuit over unauthorised data collection “Secretary Duffy has a tough job. But he needs to spend more time doing what the American people are paying him to do — fix problems — and less time blaming others," said Chris Meagher. Duffy laid out an extensive plan to replace the nation's outdated air traffic control system last week, including installing 4,600 new high-speed data connections and replacing 618 radars, but didn't put a price tag on the plan other than to say it will cost billions. The FAA has installed new fiber optic lines at Newark airport and New York's Kennedy International and LaGuardia airports to replace old copper wires since the first outage, but plans to spend the next two weeks testing those new lines out before switching over to them.

The vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo, launched on April 28, 2025, is the latest addition to vivo's mid-range lineup. Packed with impressive features, this device aims to deliver top-tier performance without breaking the bank. Let's look at the camera, processor, display, battery, gaming performance, and pricing of the iQOO Z10 Turbo in Bangladesh. key Features of vivo iQoo Z10 Turbo . Design and Build Quality The vivo iQOO Z10 Turbo showcases a modern design with a glass front and a plastic back, housed within a sturdy plastic frame. With dimensions of 163.7 x 75.9 x 8.1 mm and weighing 212g, it has a solid feel in hand, exuding a balance between durability and elegance. This phone is available in four colour options: black, white, orange, and gold. It supports IP65 certification, making it resistant to dust and water jets—something that sets it apart from the iQOO Z9 Turbo's slightly inferior IP64 rating.  Compared to the vivo T4, which is MIL-STD-810H compliant, the Z10 Turbo does not aim for rugged use but still promises decent protection in everyday conditions. Honor Power, although having a sleek and compact form factor, only offers manufacturer-rated water resistance (up to 50cm for 1 min), making the Z10 Turbo a more reliable option for durability under various environmental conditions. Read more: Motorola Edge 60 Pro Review: Know the Pros and Cons Display Quality  The Z10 Turbo’s 6.78-inch AMOLED display is a treat for visual enthusiasts. Thanks to its 1260 by 2800 resolution and ~453 PPI pixel density, the display delivers exceptionally sharp and clear visuals. It supports 1B colours, HDR, and a blazing 144Hz refresh rate, offering smooth transitions and vibrant visuals.  What is truly impressive is the iQOO Z10 Turbo’s 4400 nits peak brightness—just a notch below the Z9 Turbo’s remarkable 4500 nits and well behind the T4’s class-leading 5000 nits peak under specific HDR conditions. Honor Power’s 4000 nits peak display is solid, but it still does not outshine the competition. Combined with an always-on display and AMOLED technology, the Z10 Turbo offers deep blacks, vibrant colours, and an excellent viewing experience in daily use and multimedia playback.  Camera Performance The iQOO Z10 Turbo’s camera setup includes a dual system with a 50 MP primary sensor (f/1.8, 1/1.95", PDAF, OIS) and a 2 MP (f/2.4) depth sensor with HDR and panorama. This setup excels at producing sharp and colour-accurate photos, especially in daylight. Thanks to OIS and gyro-EIS, video stability is excellent, supporting 4K recording on the main (rear) sensor that maintains crisp detail.  Read more: OnePlus Nord 5: What We Know So Far In comparison, the iQOO Z9 Turbo sports a similar primary sensor but adds an 8 MP (f/2.2) ultrawide camera with HDR and panorama, providing more versatility, especially for landscape and group shots. The T4 mirrors the Z10 Turbo’s rear camera setup, while its 32MP selfie shooter with 4K video shooting capacity outperforms the Z10 Turbo’s 16MP (f/2.5) front sensor that can shoot a maximum of 1080p footage.  Honor Power also features a 50MP camera, but with a slightly larger sensor (1.56") and a 5MP ultrawide lens, offering slightly more flexibility. However, Z10 Turbo pulls ahead with a superior colour spectrum sensor and faster processing for better low-light performance.  Processor Performance  At the core of the Z10 Turbo lies the MediaTek Dimensity 8400 chipset, a 4nm octa-core processor that combines Cortex-A725 cores at up to 3.25 GHz and a G720 MC7 GPU. This architecture delivers fast, efficient performance suitable for power users. Benchmarks and real-world testing reveal that it rivals the Qualcomm SM8635 Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 in the iQOO Z9 Turbo, which is also built on a 4nm process but boasts a slightly higher-performing CPU/GPU combination (Cortex-X4 and Adreno 735).  Read more: Best 10 Smartphones Releasing in May 2025 However, the Z10 Turbo holds its ground well, especially in sustained tasks. Compared to the Qualcomm SM7635 Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 in the vivo T4 and the Qualcomm SM7550-AB Snapdragon 7 Gen 3 in Honor Power, the Dimensity 8400 easily outclasses both in multitasking, app launches, and raw processing power, making the Z10 Turbo an all-rounder in performance. Gaming Performance Gaming on the Z10 Turbo is smooth and responsive, powered by the Dimensity 8400 chipset and Mali-G720 MC7 GPU. Heavy games like Genshin Impact and Call of Duty: Mobile run smoothly on high settings, with minimal frame drops. The 144Hz display complements this feature by providing fluid gameplay.  Compared to the iQOO Z9 Turbo, which uses the more gaming-optimised Adreno 735 GPU, the experience is neck and neck, though the Z9 Turbo might have a slight advantage in ultra-high-end gaming. The vivo T4, limited by its Adreno 710 GPU (940 MHz) and lower peak brightness, lags behind in delivering consistent gaming performance.  Read more: vivo V50 Lite Review: Does it offer value-for-money Honor Power fares decently with the Adreno 720 GPU but lacks the refresh rate and processing fluidity offered by the Z10 Turbo. Thermal management on the Z10 Turbo is also commendable, with the phone staying cool during extended sessions. Battery Life  With its large 7620mAh Si/C Li-Ion battery, the Z10 Turbo offers excellent battery life that easily lasts beyond a full day for most users. It supports 90W fast charging, which powers the device to 100% in just 55 minutes, plus reverse wired charging support. This large battery capacity is a standout feature in its price range. In comparison, the iQOO Z9 Turbo features a 6000 mAh cell with 80W charging and 7.5W reverse charging, which is fast but can not match the endurance of the Z10 Turbo. The vivo T4 has a 7300mAh (50% in 33 minutes) battery with similar charging capabilities (90W), 55W PPS, 44W UFCS, 7.5W reverse wired charging, and bypass charging. But despite having a huge battery, the T4’s real-world battery life is marginally shorter due to its less efficient processor.  Read more: Tecno Camon 40 Pro Review: Is It Worth It? Honor Power wins on sheer capacity with its 8000mAh battery but only offers 66W wired and 5W reverse wired charging, resulting in longer top-up times. Overall, the Z10 Turbo strikes an excellent balance between capacity and charging speed. Software and User Interface Running on Android 15 with OriginOS 5, the Z10 Turbo offers a fluid, customisable, and feature-rich experience. OriginOS brings several enhancements, including smoother animations, better widget functionality, and smarter battery management. It is notably snappier and more intuitive than Android 14 OriginOS 4 found on the Z9 Turbo.  Compared to vivo T4’s Android 15 Funtouch 15, OriginOS feels more refined and less bloated, though both offer two major Android upgrades. Honor Power’s Android 15 MagicOS 9, although clean and smooth, does not match the level of optimisation and customisation flexibility provided by vivo’s software skin. Features like Always-On Display, Circle to Search, and performance tweaks make the Z10 Turbo a joy to use daily. Read more: Infinix Note 50 Pro Plus Review: Is it a value-for-money midrange smartphone? Storage Options The Z10 Turbo comes in multiple configurations: 256GB/12GB RAM, 256GB/16GB RAM, 512GB/12GB RAM, and 512GB/16GB RAM. All variants use the blazing-fast UFS 4.1 standard, which ensures quicker app loading times, faster file transfers, and improved multitasking. This feature gives it a considerable edge over the iQOO Z9 Turbo’s UFS 4.0 storage, which, while fast, does not quite match the latest iteration. However, provision of a 1TB storage option could make the Z10 Turbo a better deal. The vivo T4, with UFS 2.2 (128GB 8GB RAM, 256GB 8GB RAM, and 256GB 12GB RAM) storage, clearly lags behind in speed and efficiency, making it less ideal for power users.
