Lava also joined the 5G race with its budget-friendly Blaze Curve, and Realme added to the mix with the Realme 12 and Realme 12+.
Apple vs. Epic Games:
The showdown between Apple and Epic Games heated up again. It all started with Apple blocking Epic Games' developer account but later reinstating it to comply with the EU's Digital Markets Act. Epic Games is eyeing a third-party app store for iPhones in Europe, a move that could shake up the app landscape.
