The Blade 10 and the Blade 10 Prime are essentially the same phone, just for different carriers. The Blade 10 Prime is specifically for the Verizon-owned Visible, while the standard Blade 10 is available unlocked and works on Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile.

The phones are relatively high-powered. Under the hood, you’ll get a MediaTek P60 octa-core processor, with 3GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. In other words, it may not be the most powerful device around, but it should be able to handle most things that most users throw at it. Powering it all is a 3,200mAh battery, which isn’t huge, but again, should get you through a day of use.

On the front of the device, you’ll get a 6.3-inch display with a Full HD resolution and a small teardrop notch, which houses a 16-megapixel rear-facing camera. On the back, there’s a 16-megapixel and 5-megapixel, dual rear-facing camera. The Blade 10 and Blade 10 Prime comes at $180.

The ZTE Blade A7 Prime will be available exclusively on Visible’s network, and offers a few similar features compared to the Blade 10 and Blade 10 Prime. The device offers 3GB of RAM and 32GB of storage, along with a 3,200mAh battery, like the other phone. On the back, there’s a 16-megapixel, rear-facing camera and on the front you’ll get a 5-megapixel, front-facing camera. The device has a 6.09-inch HD display, and it ships with Android 9 Pie — though we’re not holding up hope for upgrades to Android 10. The processor on offer is the MediaTek Helio A22, and the device will be available for $100.

The ZTE Blade 10, Blade 10 Prime, and Blade A7 Prime are now available for purchase, with the Blade 10 Prime and Blade A7 Prime available exclusively from Visible. You can head to the Visible website to get them for yourself.

OnePlus 13 vs. iPhone 16 Pro: Can the flagship killer take another head?

OnePlus looks like it's hit another one out of the park with this year's OnePlus 13. The enthusiast brand's latest flagship launched in China in late October, and this week, the company officially announced it will be landing in North America on January 7, 2025. As one of the first mainstream phones to be powered by Qualcomm's bleeding-edge Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, it should bring significant improvements in the OnePlus 13's performance, battery life, and photographic prowess compared to its predecessor.

This also puts the OnePlus 13 first in line to challenge Apple's 2024 flagship. This year, the iPhone 16 Pro has raised the bar with Apple's A18 Pro chip that powers new Apple Intelligence features and turns the smartphone into a gaming powerhouse. There's also a clever new Camera Control and studio-quality cinematography features. Does Qualcomm's latest silicon give the OnePlus 13 enough of an edge, and has the smartphone maker put it to good use? Let's dig in and find out how these two measure up to each other.

I tracked my sleep with a smart display, ring, and watch. This is my favorite

Since I had a heart attack four years ago, I’ve been on a journey to understand my health. A crucial part of my recovery and focus has been my sleep, and it'smade even more important by the fact that my heart attack took place in the middle of the night while I was fast asleep. Thankfully, I woke up, but our sleep can tell us a lot about our underlying health.

Virtually every wearable now offers some form of sleep tracking, but like most things in technology, not all devices are created equal. Beyond just data, there’s also the question of which is most comfortable to track your sleep, which device gives you the most reliable data, and ultimately, how you can ensure you track your sleep wherever you are.

How to transfer your books from Goodreads to StoryGraph

Goodreads has been the only game in town for Android and iOS book-tracking for a long time now, and like most monopolies, it has grown old and fat. Acquired by Amazon in 2013, avid book readers have had lots to complain about in recent years, with the service languishing unloved, with no serious updates and an aging interface. It's been due some serious competition for a long time, and lo and behold, some has arrived. StoryGraph is a book-tracking app that offers everything you'll find on Goodreads but with an algorithm that lets you know about what you might love, and adds features any bibliophile will know are essential — like a Did Not Finish list.
