The massive handset was shown off at MWC 2019 in February, and launched on Indiegogo in late March. However it doesn't seem like many people were taken with the Energizer-branded phone – the crowdfunding window is now closed, and the device only ended up raising $15,000 / £11,000, with 11 backers. This is what we know about the iPhone 11 Is the Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus the best phone around? What do we know about the OnePlus 7 ?

The Xiaomi Mi Band 4 is confirmed to be in development, but a new certification suggests we may see the fitness tracker in the near future. Spotted by DroidShout , the Xiaomi Mi Band 4 has appeared on the official website of Taiwan's NCC certification agency. It also comes with the first images of the wearable too.
