In February, Realme launched the entry-level Realme C3 which offers an "excellent gaming performance" thanks to its MediaTek Helio G70. Now, the company is set to release another entry-level device - Realme C11 – with the unannounced MediaTek Helio G35 SoC, an alleged 5000mAh battery, and a fresh change to the typical linear camera design that Realme has been using since last year.

You'd be forgiven if you hadn't heard of Planet Computers, given that the company has only released one Android device to date - the Gemini.

Even still, there's certainly a place for them in the world, and Planet Computers has been showing off the Cosmo Communicator at CES 2019, a clamshell PDA that can run Android Pie and dual-boot different distributions of Linux. It's the successor to the Gemini, but it's more or less an entirely different device.
