2. Huawei Pura 70 Ultra

The Huawei Pura 70 Ultra holds the second position on DXOMARK, with 163 points. The main camera features variable aperture between f/1.6 and f/4.0, something that does not exist in iPhones. This technology allows for better control of depth of field and focus.

Besides the main lens, the model includes a 50 MP telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom and a 40 MP ultrawide. DXOMARK highlighted the excellent sharpness, light balance, and natural bokeh effect. GSM Arena praised its consistent performance in various scenarios — from landscapes to low-light portraits.

3. iQOO 13

The iQOO 13 is currently the most powerful smartphone in the world in raw performance, according to the AnTuTu platform. The model features the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, with up to 4.32 GHz, combined with 16 GB of RAM. It scored 2,671,305 points, against 1,653,121 for the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

The superior performance translates into more speed in games, multitasking, and heavy apps. Even with a 3 nm chip like Apple’s, the iQOO manages to be faster and more efficient. For those looking for maximum performance, it is a clear choice.

4. REDMAGIC 10 Pro

Targeted at the gaming audience, the REDMAGIC 10 Pro ranks second on AnTuTu. Also featuring Snapdragon 8 Elite, it scored 2,623,504 points. In GeekBench 6 tests, it achieved 9,833 points, surpassing the 8,606 of the iPhone 16 Pro Max.

In tests by GSM Arena, the REDMAGIC stood out for its thermal stability and continuous performance, even during long gaming sessions. It also features an aggressive design, active cooling, and a 144 Hz refresh rate, ideal for competitive gaming.

5. realme GT 7

The realme GT 7 is the smartphone with the longest battery life in the world, according to GSM Arena. It boasts 7,000 mAh, which provides over 21 hours of active use — 3 hours more than the iPhone 16 Pro Max. The 120 W charging takes the device from 0 to 100% in just 36 minutes.

The model also features a top-of-the-line processor, 5G, AMOLED display, and elegant design. Now available in Brazil, it is one of the most balanced Chinese smartphones in performance and battery life, surpassing Apple in this crucial aspect.

For 45 years, Spain and Morocco have been trying to connect Europe to Africa through a project of just 14 kilometers in the Strait of Gibraltar, and an active tectonic fault on the seabed continues to make the project nearly impossible.

At just 14 years old, a boy creates a system without energy, using steel pipes buried in the ground, that irrigates seedlings with moisture from the air, to combat the water scarcity threatening reforestation in northern China.

Where there was only sand and wind at 40 degrees, China built a megacity of 500,000 inhabitants with farms, wineries, and universities in the middle of the desert using melted glacier water from hundreds of kilometers away.

Gepard 1A2: the armored vehicle that fires 1,100 rounds per minute and became a shield against drones in Brazil.

The United States Army has an armored vehicle that reaches speeds of up to 100 km/h, capable of operating normally on different types of terrain and also on asphalt without causing damage; equipped with a 350 hp engine, it can transport up to 9 soldiers — meet the Stryker.

Man loses his job, faces a 55,000 km bike ride through more than 50 countries, endures desert, heat of 51 degrees, accidents, and isolation on a journey that began with the goal of reaching India.

If you are obtaining or renewing your driver’s license, you need to know this now: a new law divides the fee into stages, and those who choose only the digital license will not have to pay for the printed document in 2026.

The Earth will plunge into a few minutes of darkness in broad daylight in August 2026, when a total solar eclipse transforms the sky into one of the most impressive astronomical phenomena in recent years.

These living root bridges and ladders are over 700 years old and help indigenous people survive in one of the rainiest regions in the world.

The largest food company on the planet, JBS, has just opened a 4,000 square meter laboratory in Florianópolis to develop customized proteins that modulate muscle mass gain, immune response, and metabolic performance.

After nearly 30 bids and competition among industry giants, a Spanish company purchases one of the largest airports in Brazil for almost R$ 3 billion and takes over the management of Galeão in a concession that will last until 2039.
