Week in review

Welcome to another week's recap. The Mobile World Congress in Barcelona kicks off tomorrow, but the first announcements are already rolling in - here's what to expect.

The Samsung Galaxy A54 and A34 are coming soon, and we got another specs leak. The Galaxy A54 will ship with a 6.4-inch 120Hz OLED panel and an Exynos 1380 SoC with up to 8GB of RAM. The Samsung Galaxy A34, on the other hand, is rumored to run on a Dimensity 1080 chip with up to 8GB RAM.

The Sony Xperia 5 V (yes, five five) dropped by Geekbench, revealing its 16GB of RAM paired with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset.

We also got a few renders of the iPhone 15 Pro, which will have a slightly more rounded design, USB-C, the same Dynamic Island, and a new hero color - Dark Red.

See the full list of top stories below. Cheers!
