A contradictory report claimed that phone would actually be sold as the Moto C, but a new leak that appeared today reveals that it was actually the upcoming Moto G5 Plus all along. This should obviously serve as the successor to the G4 Plus from last year.
Someone is selling a G5 Plus prototype through an online marketplace in Romania, and the listing helpfully includes both the live pictures you can see below as well as a full list of specs and expected release date.
Let"s start with that – the Moto G5 Plus is allegedly coming in March, which means it may become official at MWC in late February. The phone is said to have a 5.5-inch 1080p touchscreen, a 13 MP main camera, a 5 MP selfie shooter, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 chipset, 4GB of RAM, 32GB of built-in storage, and a 3,080 mAh battery.

Samsung is rumored to out wireless in-ear headphones alongside the Galaxy S8

Will the Samsung Galaxy S8 have a 3.5mm headset jack, or won"t it? We"ve already heard some rumors saying the Korean company will once again emulate Apple and ditch the analog connector, and today a new report might have confirmed that. Not directly, though.
Samsung is now said to be launching wireless in-ear headphones alongside the Galaxy S8, whenever the smartphone becomes official. It"s still unclear whether these will be bundled with the smartphone, or sold separately (or both). The rumor also doesn"t explicitly say we"re talking about truly wireless headphones, like Samsung"s own Gear IconX or Apple"s AirPods. However, it does claim that Samsung really wants to put out a product to compete with the AirPods, so we assume these could be truly wireless after all.
Harman audio tech may be inside the headphones, but probably won"t, since Samsung"s acquisition of Harman has happened recently and the headphones were probably already in deve..

Wireless HTC Vive 2 rumored for CES unveiling

Just yesterday HTC mysteriously decided to cut the price of its Vive VR headset by $100. And a new rumor from the company"s home of Taiwan now sheds some light on why that may have happened. It turns out that a second generation Vive may be closer than we expected.
We"ve already heard that HTC is working on a Vive 2, but a Taipei-based Central News Agency report claims the new VR headset will in fact be unveiled at CES at the beginning of January. If this pans out, it means that we"re mere days away from that official announcement.
The Vive 2 will reportedly be wireless, so perhaps HTC has learned something from that wireless upgrade kit for the original Vive, which we showed you last month. The new headset is said to sport two 4K screens, one for each eye, with a refresh rate of 120Hz (up from 90Hz on the current model). The Vive 2 won"t however be standalone, so you"ll still need a PC to use it. And not any PC, mind you – top of the line performance will be..
