The device is listed with the model number “25078PC3EG” under the name Poco C85 4G. According to the listing, the smartphone will be powered by the MediaTek MT6769 SoC, paired with a Mali-G52 GPU clocked at 820MHz.

The CPU is configured with eight cores, two of which run at 2GHz and the rest at 1.7GHz, confirming it as the Helio G81 chipset.

The listing further reveals that the Poco C85 4G will feature 8GB RAM and run on Android 15 out of the box. As for the display, it is shown with an HD+ resolution of 720 × 1600 pixels and a screen density of 320 (xhdpi).

Possible Rebranded Redmi 15C 4G

Early reports suggest that the Poco C85 4G could be a rebranded version of the recently launched Redmi 15C 4G. The model numbers are strikingly similar, “25078RA3EY” for the Redmi 15C 4G and “25078PC3EG” for the Poco C85 4G. This indicates that the upcoming Poco phone may also ship with the Helio G81 Ultra, just like its Redmi counterpart.

Considering that the Redmi 14C 4G and Poco C75 4G were essentially rebranded versions of each other, the same strategy might apply here as well. Until Poco makes an official announcement, prospective buyers can look at the Redmi 15C 4G’s specifications for a fair idea of what to expect.

The phone offers multiple configurations, 4GB, 6GB, and 8GB RAM options with up to 256GB storage, expandable via microSD up to 1TB. Memory extension allows the 8GB variant to expand up to 16GB.

In terms of cameras, it features a 50MP primary rear camera with an auxiliary sensor, while the front houses an 8MP shooter. Both support HDR, Night mode, Portrait mode, and video recording at 1080p 30fps.

A large 6000mAh battery with 33W fast charging powers the device, coupled with USB Type-C connectivity. Other highlights include IP64 water and dust resistance, side-mounted fingerprint sensor, AI face unlock, NFC (market-dependent), dual SIM with microSD slot, FM radio, 3.5mm headphone jack, and a wide range of connectivity options including GPS, Glonass, Galileo, and Beidou.

Meta confirms WhatsApp patch against advanced spyware attack

Highlights

  • WhatsApp fixed a major iOS and Mac vulnerability exploited in a zero-click spyware attack targeting specific users.
  • Amnesty International revealed a 90-day operation starting in late May, where attackers used WhatsApp to steal sensitive iPhone data without user interaction.
  • This follows past incidents including the Pegasus case and a 2024 campaign targeting journalists in Italy.

WhatsApp has rolled out a crucial security fix for a vulnerability in its iOS and Mac apps that was actively exploited to compromise the devices of “specific targeted users.

The flaw tracked as CVE-2025-55177 has now been patched, according to a security advisory from the Meta-owned platform. Apple had already addressed a related bug, identified as CVE-2025-43300, which was used in combination with the WhatsApp exploit as part of what the company described as a “very sophisticated attack against specific targeted individuals.”

In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Donncha Ó Cearbhaill, head of Amnesty International’s Security Lab, revealed that the campaign lasted for nearly 90 days starting late May and involved an “advanced spyware operation.” One of the exploited flaws enabled a zero-click attack allowing hackers to compromise devices without any interaction from the victim.

Ó Cearbhaill further explained that the attack chain leveraged WhatsApp as a delivery method to steal sensitive data from iPhones including personal messages. WhatsApp has since issued warning notifications to affected users, though the identities of the attackers or spyware vendors behind the campaign remain unknown

Meanwhile, Meta spokesperson Margarita Franklin confirmed to TechCrunch that the vulnerability had been patched “a few weeks ago” and fewer than 200 WhatsApp users were notified. However, she declined to provide details on who was behind the operation.

This is not the first time WhatsApp has been targeted in government-linked spyware operations. In May, a U.S. court ordered Israeli spyware company NSO Group to pay WhatsApp $167 million in damages over its 2019 Pegasus spyware campaign, which infected more than 1,400 devices.

Earlier in 2024, WhatsApp also blocked a spyware campaign that targeted about 90 individuals, including journalists and civil society members in Italy. While the Italian government denied involvement, spyware maker Paragon later suspended Italy’s access to its surveillance tools.

FAQs

Q1. What vulnerability did WhatsApp patch in its iOS and Mac apps?

Answer. WhatsApp patched a critical flaw tracked as CVE-2025-55177, which was exploited in a zero-click spyware attack targeting specific users. Apple had also addressed a related bug (CVE-2025-43300) used in the same attack chain.

Q2. How did the spyware attack work and who was affected?

Answer. The attack used zero-click techniques, meaning devices were compromised without any user interaction. It targeted fewer than 200 individuals, including those with sensitive data on iPhones, and lasted nearly 90 days starting in late May.

Q3. Has WhatsApp faced similar spyware threats before?

Answer. Yes. In 2019, WhatsApp won a $167 million judgment against NSO Group over the Pegasus spyware. Earlier in 2024, it blocked another campaign targeting journalists and civil society members in Italy.

Instagram Expands DM Management Tools and Begins Testing Picture-in-Picture for Reels

0

Highlights

  • Instagram adds new inbox filters, customisable shortcuts and DM folders to streamline message organisation.
  • It also begins testing PiP playback, allowing users to watch Reels in a floating window while multitasking across other apps.
  • DM tools are rolling out to Professional accounts and users with over 100K followers, while PiP aims to improve retention and longer viewing sessions.

Instagram is rolling out new updates to its direct messaging (DM) system, giving users more control over how they organise and respond to messages. At the same time, the platform has reportedly also started live testing a picture-in-picture (PiP) option for Reels, allowing users to watch videos while multitasking outside the app.

New DM Filters and Inbox Management

The latest update introduces additional filters for the inbox, making it easier to manage conversations. Users can now sort their messages by Story replies, Unread, Unanswered, Followers and Verified users.

Instagram originally launched DM filters for Creator accounts in November last year, including a Verified filter. Now, these advanced options are being extended to a wider user base.

In addition, users will be able to customise their DM experience by rearranging filter shortcuts at the top of the inbox. While the “Requests” filter cannot be removed, all other filters can be added or removed as per preference.

Instagram is also introducing DM folders through the new “Folders” option, giving users another way to categorise and organise messages more efficiently.

These updates are particularly useful for creators, influencers, and businesses who receive high volumes of messages. With messaging now surpassing Stories and the main feed as the most common engagement method on Instagram, improved DM management can make communication more efficient.

According to the company, these new features will be available to all Professional accounts and personal accounts with more than 100K followers.

Instagram Tests Picture-in-Picture (PiP) for Reels

Alongside inbox upgrades, Instagram has also begun testing picture-in-picture playback for Reels. First discussed by Instagram chief Adam Mosseri back in March, PiP functionality will let users continue watching Reels in a floating window while using other apps.

App researcher Radu Oncescu shared screenshots showing prompts for selected users to try the feature, along with a new toggle in playback settings to enable PiP mode.

It’s important to note that this is a viewing feature, not a creation tool. Both TikTok and YouTube already support PiP, and Instagram’s adoption of the feature aims to keep users engaged for longer periods by allowing them to watch Reels while multitasking.

This could help boost retention rates and encourage longer video viewing sessions, as Reels can essentially continue playing in the background. Instagram confirmed to SMT that the PiP option is being tested with a small group of users.

FAQs

Q1. What new DM management features has Instagram introduced?

Answer. Instagram now offers advanced inbox filters like Story replies, Unread, Verified users, and more. Users can also rearrange filter shortcuts and use DM folders to organise conversations more efficiently.

Q2. Who can access the new DM tools on Instagram?

Answer. These features are being rolled out to Professional accounts and personal accounts with over 100K followers, especially benefiting creators and businesses handling high message volumes.

Q3. What is Instagram’s Picture-in-Picture (PiP) feature for Reels?

Answer. Instagram is testing PiP playback for Reels, allowing users to watch videos in a floating window while multitasking in other apps, similar to features on TikTok and YouTube.

OnePlus is gearing up for its next-generation flagship smartphone, the OnePlus 15.  This model will succeed the OnePlus 13 as the company skips the number 14. Ahead of its official unveiling, the device has appeared on Geekbench, shedding light on its core specifications. Here’s what we know so far.

OnePlus 15 Geekbench Listing

According to a recent post by tipster Abhishek Yadav @yabhishekhd on X, the OnePlus 15 carrying the model number PLK110 is now listed on Geekbench with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 (also referred to as Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5).


The chipset is shown as an octa-core processor featuring two prime cores clocked at 4.61GHz and six secondary cores running at 3.63GHz. Since the benchmarked unit is still in the testing stage, the recorded scores are on the lower side.

The listing also confirms that the test device was equipped with 16GB of RAM, hinting that 16GB could be the base configuration. The phone is also seen running Android 16 out of the box, customised with OxygenOS 16.

OnePlus 15 – Design and Camera Upgrades (Rumoured)

Leaks suggest that the OnePlus 15 may undergo a major design overhaul. It could be moving away from the circular camera island found in its predecessor to a rounded rectangular module, similar to the OnePlus 13s.

Reports also indicate that OnePlus may end its long-standing Hasselblad partnership, switching instead to OPPO’s Lumo Image Engine for advanced imaging capabilities. The flagship is expected to feature a 50MP main camera sensor, a massive 7000–7500mAh battery supported by 100W fast charging and a 1.5K LTPO display with slimmer bezels.

If the display specs rumour is true, it would be a downgrade from the 2K+ LTPO screen on the OnePlus 13.

OnePlus 15 – Launch Timeline

The OnePlus 15 is tipped to launch first in China around late October or early November 2025, with an India launch expected in early 2026. More details regarding its specifications and features are expected to surface in the coming weeks.

The Samsung Galaxy F17 5G is inching closer to launch and a fresh leak has revealed its pricing and memory options for the Indian market. Interestingly, this contradicts an earlier claim from tipster gadgetsdata, who had suggested that both the Galaxy M17 5G and Galaxy F17 5G would debut in Q1 2026. The latest information hints that the launch could happen much sooner. So, based on the latest updates, here’s what we know.

Samsung Galaxy F17 5G – Leaked Price and Variants

According to tipster Abhishek Yadav @yabhishekhd on X (formerly Twitter), the Galaxy F17 5G will be available in two configurations. These would be as follows –

  • 4GB + 128GB priced at ₹14,999
  • 6GB + 128GB priced at ₹15,999

It is still unclear whether these prices are inclusive of any bank offers or launch-day discounts. Since pricing leaks usually appear shortly before official announcements, this could be a strong indicator that Samsung is preparing to unveil the phone in the coming weeks.

Samsung Galaxy F17 5G – Expected Specifications

From previous leaks and certification listings, the Galaxy F17 5G is tipped to run on the Exynos 1330 chipset paired with One UI 7 based on Android 15.
