The global foldable market is growing at a “measured pace”, writes TrendForce in its latest report. The main obstacles to adoption remain the same – concerns about durability, the crease and, of course, price. The analysts forecast that 19.8 million foldables will be sold this year, which would be 1.6% of the total smartphone market (about the same fraction as last year). Samsung is currently in first place on the global foldable market, though its lead over the competition is expected to evaporate – predictions see it going from 45.2% last year to 35.4% this year. This would put it...

The new Galaxy Z series from Samsung is a hit. Just as analysts predicted, it set a new record for pre-orders of foldable devices in South Korea. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 (and presumably the Z Flip7 FE) saw 1.04 million pre-orders in the week spanning July 15 to 21. That topped the previous record set by the Z 5 generation of 1.02 million pre-orders. More importantly, it beats last year’s Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 pre-orders by a solid 14% (those managed 910,000 pre-orders). The Galaxy Z Fold7 saw more pre-orders than the Z Flip7 The report by ETNews...

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 is the thinnest in its lineup, yet it's also more durable than its predecessor. The Fold7's folding display was certified to last more than half a million folds - 2.5 times (or 85%) more than what its predecessor achieved in a durability test last year (200,000)! Certification company Bureau Veritas completed the 500,000 folds after which the Galaxy Z Fold7 remained fully functional! The testing was done over 13 days at 25°C (77°F), simulating over 10 years of average daily use - 100 folds per day. That also translates to over 6 years of heavy use - 200 times...

Last week, we heard that the vivo V60 will launch in India on August 19 with OriginOS, making it the first vivo smartphone in the country to run Funtouch OS instead of OriginOS, which is currently China-exclusive. A new report contradicts those leaks, claiming that the vivo V60 will debut in India on August 12 and run Funtouch OS based on Android 16. Additionally, the source claims that the vivo V60 will be powered by the Snapdragon 7 Gen 4 SoC and have UFS 2.2 storage onboard without specifying the storage capacity. The smartphone will feature a 6.67" 120Hz 1.5K AMOLED display with...

Nokia and HMD Global started to part ways last year, which included de-listing Nokia-branded phones from hmd.com and replacing most with corresponding HMD-branded models. But the Nokia brand may live on in the phone world if the Finnish company finds another partner. On the Nokia sub-reddit, a Nokia Community Manager posted that the company is open to collaborating with a “large scale mobile manufacturer”. Of course, the words of a social media account manager don’t carry much weight and Reddit isn’t the best place to find a smartphone ODM. Nokia had licensed its brand in several...

With few exceptions, smartphones are cooled passively – the new Oppo K13 Turbo and K13 Turbo Pro buck that trend and bring a tiny fan to keep their chipsets cool even during long gaming sessions. The Oppo K13 Turbo is powered by the Dimensity 8450, a 4nm (TSMC) chip with eight Cortex-A725 cores and a Mali-G720 MC7 GPU. Oppo K13 Turbo with Dimensity 8450 • Oppo K13 Turbo Pro with Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 The Oppo K13 Turbo Pro features a Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 instead – another 4nm (TSMC) chip with eight CPU cores (one Cortex-X4, and seven Cortex-A720) plus an Adreno 825 GPU.

Details on the Google Pixel Watch 4 have been trickling out in the build-up to the August 20 unveiling. The latest scuttlebutt reveals that the new model will have a brighter display and new silicon for improved efficiency. The Pixel Watch 4 will be available in 41mm and 45mm sizes, which should correspond to 1.2” and 1.4” displays (as it did on the Watch 3).

This brightness matches the newly arrived Samsung Galaxy Watch8 series as well as the Apple Watch Ultra 2 (the Apple Watch Series 10 displays only go up to 2,000...

The vanilla Huawei Pura 80 is late to the party – the rest of the Pura 80 family launched in China in early June and even managed an international launch since then. The vanilla model is only now ready to go and will be available in China this Wednesday (July 23). Or maybe not even then, Huawei’s posts on Weibo talk of a pre-sale, suggesting that actual availability will come later. The posts mention school, so Huawei seems to be positioning this as a phone for students (school in China starts in early September). The Huawei Pura 80 is coming on Wednesday (July 23) The official...

The Samsung Galaxy Z foldables went on pre-order last week and are now heading into their second week. Open sales will begin soon, but in the meantime, you can have a free storage upgrade. Additionally, Amazon offers a £100 gift card – considering that Prime is £95 a year, it practically pays for itself. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 is super thin, possibly the thinnest horizontal foldable. It has DeX multitasking on large 6.5” cover and 8.0” inner displays with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. The phone is equipped with a 200MP main camera (plus 10MP 3x tele and 12MP ultra-wide). The 4,400mAh...

OnePlus refreshed the Nord series with two interesting models – one brings the first Snapdragon 8-series chip to the Nord family, the other has the biggest battery of any OnePlus phone yet... kind of. The OnePlus Nord 5 sports a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3, which showed great performance in our review. It comes with Android 15 out of the box and will receive 4 OS updates. It has a large 6.83” OLED display with fast 144Hz refresh rate and a sizable 6,800mAh battery, if we’re talking about the unit sold in India. The international model has only 5,200mAh capacity. OnePlus Nord 5 The...

Last week’s poll pinpointed price as the primary concern when people consider the new Galaxy Z foldables. They may have gotten slimmer, they may have gotten lighter, but they did not become cheaper. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 proved to be quite popular, though the people who are interested are split into two camps – those who can justify its price tag and those who can’t. And the latter is a slightly bigger group. Some are not happy with the hardware – the complaints mainly focused on the battery capacity and to an extent the charging speed – but that was a relatively small...

It’s been eleven years since Xiaomi launched its original Mi Band and the series has now entered its tenth generation. The Mi Band was the catalyst to Xiaomi's rise in the wearables market, managing to maintain its position as one of the best bang for your buck devices out there.

It seems Samsung might be in some hot water over a growing potential issue with the hinge on its Z Fold7. We've been keeping an eye out for developments and still can't quite decide whether the issue is a real cause for concern or not. Still, it is worth reporting. The facts we have so far are at least a couple of photos published on Reddit of what seem to be store demo units. Indeed, these appear not to be opening fully. That said, the poster does mention that they could "help it a bit", so it's more a case of the hinge not snapping properly than not opening. This might be due to a...

Doogee's S200 series comprises three smartphones - the S200, the S200X, and the S200 Plus. These will soon be joined by the S200 Max.

Samsung has recently unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7, its thinnest and lightest foldables yet in their respective categories. Today, the company has shared how it got here and what made all that possible. [#InlinePriceWidget,13826,1#] [#InlinePriceWidget,13712,1#] The company says it's pursued the goal of giving users large screens in a pocket-friendly device ever since 2019 and the first Galaxy Fold. The screens have gotten bigger, the phones thinner and lighter over the years - the Flip7's battery is denser, thus packing 300 mAh more while being thinner. The phone...

Samsung officially unveiled the Galaxy F36 5G today in India, without much fanfare. Still, we did get a heads-up, so we knew to be on the lookout. The Galaxy F36 5G measures 164.4 x 77.9 x 7.7 mm and weighs 197 grams. This package includes a 5,000 mAh battery (25W charging) and a 6.7-inch Full HD+ 120Hz Super AMOLED display. There appears to be no information on ingress protection, but we assume the same IP67 rating as the Galaxy A36. We do know that Gorilla Glass Victus+ protects the front of the phone. The F36 5G features a side-mounted fingerprint reader, a hybrid dual...

Samsung Display has been rumored to bring a crease-free folding screen for Apple’s foldable iPhone but a new report from Ming Chi-Kuo suggests the new gen panel will actually make its debut on next year’s Galaxy Z Fold8. Galaxy Z Fold7 One of Samsung Display’s key suppliers, Fine M-Tec, announced that it would invest a reported KRW 17.5 billion ($12.6 million) to support growing demand for its new generation of laser-processed hinges.

vivo unveiled the vivo V50 in February, and it's rumored to follow it up with the V60 next month. A recent rumor claimed that the vivo V60 will launch in India on August 19, and it will be the first smartphone in the country to run OriginOS, which has been exclusive to China thus far.

We have a hands-on with the Huawei Pura 80 Ultra, but now it's at the office and it's time for an unboxing. The phone comes in a full retail box - you get a pretty case, a 100W charger with both USB-A and USB-C ports, a SIM tool, and a cable. The case has a textured rear panel, but its sides are glossy and a bit slippery. Combined with their contoured edge (which matches the phone's), they make the phone a bit difficult to pick up from a table. Unboxing the Pura 80 Ultra The display is really impressive. It's large, but thanks to the tapered edge on all sides feels very...

Despite rumors, a tri-fold Galaxy did not make an appearance at the recent Galaxy Unpacked. However, last week Samsung Electronics chief TM Roh confirmed that the new model will launch by the end of this year. Roh said “We are now focusing on perfecting the product and its usability, but we have not decided its name. As the product nears completion, we are planning to make a final decision soon.” The decision may have been made as the name “Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold” has been floated by Max Jambor as a potential option. Presumably, there would be a number after that too, similar to the Z...

With the Galaxy Z Fold7’s thin and light profile, Samsung had to make some sacrifices. One of the more notable omissions is the lack of S Pen support as Samsung ditched the folding screen’s digitizer layer. This, however, doesn’t mean that Samsung will give up the S Pen on future foldables. Samsung MX (Mobile eXperience) Managing Director - Kang Min-seok spoke to Korean outlet ET News and confirmed that consumers wanted a thin and light product and that trade-offs had to be made. While the Z Fold7 does not feature S Pen support, Samsung is not giving up on adding stylus support for...

Earlier this month, Sony halted sales of its Xperia 1 VII due to random reboots, shutdowns, and inability to power on. The brand later launched an investigation into the issue and it seems to have reached a conclusion.

As a result, Sony will offer a free replacement program for affected Xperia 1 VII users. The brand also confirmed that it altered its manufacturing process to ensure future units won't suffer from the same issue. Our investigation has...

Someone has their wires crossed – a Lithuanian retailer listed the Realme Note 70T on its site, which has a model number RMX5313. Now the Google Play Console lists a device with that same RMX5313 model number, except it’s calling it “Realme Note 70” (no “T”) and it shows different specs.

The latest report from the International Data Corporation (IDC) shows a modest 1% year-over-year growth for global smartphone shipments during the April-June (Q2) period. This is traditionally one of the tougher periods for smartphone makers, and there were several macroeconomic factors that affected global demand. Economic uncertainty, including tariff volatility, forex instability, unemployment and inflation, combined with weak demand in China, all contributed to flat growth. Going into the actual breakdown by brand, Samsung led the way with an estimated 58 million shipments and a...
