This only strengthens my suspicion. OP15T owners outside of China report getting just LTE and no 5G, despite none of such things on Realme GT8 Pro. It's purely a software matter. It's still worth getting this phone and unlocking its bootloader, but normie…
If non-standalone (NSA) 5G isn't something you care about, here's the first compact 8eg5 device getting official LOS:

Just in case the COS17 builds happen to be unfriendly to deeptesting enrollment (I don't know that), a downgrade package to 16.0.9.400 is available at https://downgradefs.coloros.com/downgrade/26/07/27/af2624b130b649248abb710023ed1eb8.zip

Deeptesting perm obtained on COS16 remains available after update to 17.0.0.107, while OEM unlock toggle visibility and state is preserved in that case. What I need to add is that executing a bootloader lock supposedly results in losing the deeptesting token from

Things that happen only with Chinese dedication to tech:
A simulator of the vision angle cost inflicted by privacy display upon Mi 18 Pro Max, supposedly based on measured data. Not gonna lie, it does feel like an LCD. The only solution would be a pixel density that allows narrow angle pixels to be fully turned off without consequences.

Tldr of the whole ordeal if you didn't look it up yet: modified Ledger hardware wallets were silently put on the market, but instead of getting their secrets out to spoof the real thing (very difficult or super mega ultra impossible if you're a TPM cultist), the real thing got a physical implant reading the Ledger's screen contents while the seed phrase is displayed, then uploading it.

I faintly remembered reading something like this when I set up my Ledger years ago. So I dug up the box, and sure enough, it was in there. Pretty embarassing, @Ledger, in light of the recent events 😬

Unrelated: EU wants (I don't even have to look up how much set in stone it is, material disrespect of existing right to repair laws doesn't inspire confidence, hence wants) users to have an option to disable auto updates and to be able to install security updates decoupled from functionality.

A widely enrolled CA got their private key leaked, present on Android since 11.
Implications: update your browsers and operating systems if you'll be in a risky network, otherwise check whether you own any locked down hardware or software that may not use cert pinning in areas that matter, to make it yours.

Xiaomi released a Poco literally using Mi 17 parts and barely anyone noticed. The dimensions match 1:1, design is extremely similar, the panel makes perfect sense to be exactly the same component. Honestly WTF.
Yes, the SoC is a qcom midrange, the cameras are very basic, but it's a rare sight regardless. Extra tidbit: both of these phones either have a 6.35" panel or the official ppi spec on Mi 17 is incorrect. It's very unlikely that X8s would receive smaller bezels in same body. It's also likely an LTPO they're not advertising as one as it'd sound too good for the series.

https://www.apple.com/macbook-neo/specs/ There's one thing it's certainly excellent at. Using the same SoC as iPhone 16 Pro, it manages to show the difference between restrictive philosophy of iOS and fully usable MacOS. On the same hardware.
In the era of unhinged vibecoded projects, I propose:
Unsolder A18 Pro out of MacBook Neo, put it into iPhone 16 Pro and run a rooted OS of choice. How about that?

Uhhh, how do we merge the monikers Pro and LED in a way that makes it sound like OLED?
Wait, no, it is an OLED. A Public Relations OLED?
