The Galaxy Z Fold 7 has been in the conversation for a while and the S Pen has recently taken center stage. While previous rumors hint at further reduction of S Pen features the latest leak talks about something positive.
A redesigned tip for better writing experience
According to leaker PandaFlashPro, Samsung has redesigned the stylus to be thicker than the one used with the Galaxy Z Fold 6. It reportedly packs enhanced pen tips that promise a superior writing experience.
With the changes, the new, thicker S Pen for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to deliver better ergonomics and smoother input. Although exact details about the new pen tips remain undisclosed, the improvements suggest that Samsung is making a strong push to refine its foldable device ecosystem.
According to previous leaks and rumors, Samsung is finally working on a new hinge mechanism that makes the phone much slimmer than its predecessor. The phone is expected to be 4.2 mm thick when unfolded which is a significant improvement over the 5.6 mm Z Fold 6.
What else to expect from Z Fold 7?
While Samsung has one of the best custom skins for large-screen phones, the visual experience takes a hit as soon as you look at the display from the side. Thankfully, the crease is expected to improve with the new hinge mechanism, which is currently one of the deepest and most visible among all the foldable phones available on the market.
As for the performance, the Z Fold 7 will reportedly be powered by the 8-core Snapdragon 8 Elite and a 4,400 mAh battery, the same as last year’s model.
Samsung achieved a thinner body for the Special Edition by removing the digitizer required for S Pen functionality. However, this appears to have been a temporary trade-off, as the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is confirmed to bring back S Pen support. Production of the updated stylus is reportedly scheduled for June, aligning with a planned July release for the smartphone itself.
Doogee is back with two new rugged smartphones—the S118 Pro and S119. As expected from the brand, both devices pack massive batteries, durable exteriors, and hardware built for the outdoors.
While they share the same DNA, the two models take slightly different approaches when it comes to display, performance, and cameras. Here’s a closer look at what they bring to the table.
Doogee S118 Pro
The S118 Pro is powered by MediaTek’s Dimensity 7050 chipset, paired with a whopping 24GB of RAM. That’s a surprising amount of memory for a rugged phone—even flagships don’t have that much—which is paired with 512GB of storage.
Up front, there’s a 6.6-inch Full HD+ display with a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. As expected, durability is a priority in a Doogee phone. It is rated IP68 and IP69K for dust and water resistance and meets the military-grade MIL-STD-810H standard.
On the back, you’ll find a 108MP main camera, a 20MP night vision sensor, and a 32MP front-facing shooter. Night vision cameras are a rare sight outside the rugged phone category, but they can be useful for low-light situations like camping or security monitoring.
For audio, the S118 Pro packs a dual-speaker setup. Keeping everything running is a massive 10,800mAh battery. Charging, however, is a bit on the slower side at 33W—reasonable but not exactly fast given the battery size. Still, a full charge will last significantly longer than your average smartphone.
Doogee S119
The S119 brings something unusual to the rugged phone category—a 1.32-inch rear secondary display. It can show notifications, call alerts, battery status, and even custom watch faces. A secondary display is rare in smartphones, especially rugged ones, but if you’ve ever wanted one, here’s your chance.
The device is built around a 6.72-inch IPS panel with a Full HD+ resolution. However, the company is still sticking with a waterdrop notch, which feels a bit dated in 2025.
Under the hood, it’s powered by MediaTek’s MT8788 processor—yes, that’s literally the name—paired with 8GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage, expandable up to 2TB.
The MT8788 is a 4G-only SoC with four Cortex-A73 and four Cortex-A53 cores, all clocked at 2GHz. It’s not exactly built for gaming or intensive tasks, so don’t expect flagship-level performance.
Software-wise, both the phone runs Android 14 out of the box. That’s a bit outdated for the 2025 phone while Doogee hasn’t shared any details about its update policy either.
Like the S118 Pro, the S119 packs a massive battery, though slightly smaller at 10,200mAh. And it supports the same 33W charging, which should keep things going for a while.
As for cameras, the S119 features a 100MP main sensor, a 20MP night vision camera, and a 5MP ultra-wide lens. Durability features include the same IP68, IP69K, and MIL-STD-810H certifications.
Availability
Both models are now available for purchase on Amazon. And if you’re looking for a deal, you can grab the Doogee S118 Pro with code VXDJSO82 for 30% off, or use 9GGBR278 to get the same discount on the S119.

Infinix has finally announced the launch date for its new mid range smartphone lineup. The Infinix Note 50 series had its launch date revealed in a fresh teaser in Indonesia, confirming the March release. So here’s everything you need to know.
Infinix Note 50 Series Launches on March 3
As per the official teaser image poster on Instagram, the smartphone maker plans to unveil the Infinix Note 50 series in the Indonesian market on 3rd March 2025. This is the brand’s latest Note series models and will likely include at least a base Note 50 and Note 50 Pro variant. These new smartphones will launch with the Infinix AI technology that brings useful features thanks to AI powered tools.
Infinix Note 50 Series Teaser
Notably, this launch also arrives after the Infinix Note 50 Pro model grabbed the SDPPI certification in Indonesia earlier this month. While the teaser doesn’t reveal finer details regarding these devices, an earlier FCC sighting confirmed a lot more details. This listing has confirmed that the Infinix Note 50 will measure 9mm in thickness, support NFC, dual band WiFi, and 45W wired fast charging. In the teaser trailer video, the camera module of one of the models can be seen, that confirms a triple camera setup on the rear.
Based on what we know so far, Infinix plans to launch multiple models from the lineup including the Note 50X, Note 50, Note 50 Pro, and Note 50 Pro+ 5G. The company has yet to confirm the official pricing or availability details, and even the specs and key features are still unknown. So stick around for more as we will be covering the Infinix Note 50 series launch next month.

Samsung is struggling this year to provide stable One UI 7 software for its Galaxy devices. It started the One UI 7 beta program for the Galaxy S24 series in early December, and since then people have just been cluelessly waiting for the stable update. However, now it seems Samsung wants to wrap up the beta program and begin the stable rollout of One UI 7, starting with the Galaxy S24 series.
This week, Samsung released the fourth One UI 7 beta to the Galaxy S24 series. That brings a host of fixes and some new camera additions, such as AI filters and log video recording. Just a day after the fourth beta, the brand has released another beta update for the Galaxy S24 series, while the gap between the third and fourth beta was around one and a half months. This could mean Samsung wants to quickly fix all those existing issues and bring the stable update soon to the Galaxy S24 series.
The latest One UI 7, which just rolled out today, is tagged with firmware version ZYBB and has a download size of around 436MB. According to the changelog, it fixes an issue with the visual voicemail (VVM) crash. Is this the fifth beta or a hotfix for the fourth beta? Well, we can’t say for sure. But it’s good to see Samsung rolling out another update in just a day.
Recently, a One UI beta moderator on the Samsung Community said the stable version will be released very soon. He didn’t reveal anything about the release date or timeline, but if his words are true, the Galaxy S24 series may get the stable One UI 7 update in March. However, recent leaks say otherwise. According to leaks, Samsung might release at least two more One UI 7 beta updates to the Galaxy S24 series, and the stable version might arrive sometime in April once the Galaxy S25 Edge is released.
The One UI 7 stable rollout is already massively delayed. Samsung hasn’t updated a single Galaxy device to One UI 7, which is only frustrating users. This isn’t good for the brand, as many people are talking about switching to a different brand and questioning its future software rollouts. I strongly believe that Samsung should at least announce the One UI 7 rollout timeline.
Apple has launched the iPhone 16e with a price tag of $599, with an unexpected omission of MagSafe. The absence of this signature charging technologies has, quire reasonably, made headlines.
Rumors initially suggested that Apple’s new C1 5G modem might be the reason, but the company has now stepped in to set the record straight.
The speculation originated from sources within the accessories industry, with claims that the iPhone 16e’s built-in magnets for MagSafe might have interfered with Apple’s in-house C1 modem. For those unfamiliar, this modem is a key milestone in Apple’s shift away from Qualcomm, whuch just made its debut with the iPhone 16e.
Given the importance of seamless connectivity, some believed that Apple had chosen to prioritize 5G performance over magnetic charging.
Apple has denied the speculated theory
When asked for clarification, the company confirmed (via Macworld) that the C1 modem has nothing to do with their decision to exclude MagSafe from the iPhone 16e. Although the company didn’t offer an alternative explanation, it’s assumed that the omission is a strategic move, aimed at distinguishing the iPhone 16e from higher-end models in the lineup.
It makes sense because not everyone is looking for the best performance or camera. With the large display and new design, the iPhone 16e could appear as a more appealing option than the more expensive models.
Although the iPhone 16e lacks the magnets and the ease of use offered by them, it still supports the Qi standard of wireless charging. Learn more about the iPhone 16e here.
While Apple’s reasoning remains unclear, its statement dismisses any concerns that its first-generation C1 modem is experiencing technical difficulties. Instead, this move may simply be part of Apple’s strategy to create differentiation within its product lineup.

Apple debuted the iPhone 16e with its first in-house cellular modem that has been rumored for months now. The C1 model reduced the brand’s reliance on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon modems for connectivity. But it seems like Apple is set to take things even further with the next gen iPhone 17.
Apple developing an in-house WiFi chip for the iPhone 17
The Cupertino based giant could have plans to make its very own WiFi chips, as per known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo on X (formerly Twitter). The Apple iPhone 16’e C1 modem enabled the brand to move away from Qualcomm and its Snapdragon modems. Meanwhile, the WiFi chips used in Apple devices are from Broadcom. So Apple could soon be replacing them with its own in-house chips.
Apple iPhone 17 Series Renders
Ming-Chi Kuo further added that his latest industry survey has hinted that the iPhone 17 series could be the first to launch with Apple’s in-house WiFi chips. The iPhone 17 lineup is expected to launch in the second half of this year, but only the iPhone 17 Air model may adopt the Apple C1 modem chip. The company using its self developed WiFi chips would help it reduce the cost by removing its reliance on other manufacturers. However, one of the bigger benefits might be related to the Apple ecosystem.
Over time, Apple could use its in-house WiFi chips across all of its devices like the MacBook, iPad, iPhones, and more, allowing for enhanced multiplatform connectivity. Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report, so take this news with a pinch of salt and stick around for more.

Oppo has expanded its O+ Connect feature to Mac with the launch of the Oppo Find N5, which offers seamless file sharing and a remote desktop experience for macOS users. Originally introduced with ColorOS 15 on the Oppo Find X8 series, O+ Connect made it easier for Oppo devices to interact with iPhones and iPads.
Now, Mac users can also enjoy smooth cross-device connectivity, making it easier to manage files and even control their Mac remotely.
Oppo’s O+ Connect for Mac: cross-platform made simpler than ever
With O+ Connect for Mac, Oppo Find N5 users can view, move, search, and delete files on their phone directly from their Mac or MacBook. Unlike traditional file transfer methods, this feature lets users access their phone’s files without copying them, which means you can browse through recent photos or documents on your Mac in real-time.
Notably, O+ Connect for Mac does not require your data to be uploaded to a server. All the data sharing happens between your phone and Mac and you only need to connect them to the same Wi-Fi network.
Aside from photos or videos, you can also access notes and documents without touching your phone. File transfers are also fast—Oppo claims that 100 photos can be moved from the phone to the Mac in just 8 seconds.
Remote Mac Control
O+ Connect for Mac isn’t just about file sharing—users can also control their Mac from this Android foldable. The foldable phone’s 8.12-inch inner display offers a full-screen macOS view, or users can fold the phone at 90 degrees for a more ergonomic experience:
The top half of the screen displays the Mac desktop.
The bottom half becomes a touchpad, supporting Apple’s multi-touch gestures.
Alternatively, the bottom half can be used as a keyboard.
Oppo even showcased a split-screen mode, where users could drag a file from macOS and drop it directly into WhatsApp on their phone, making file-sharing incredibly intuitive.
Oppo has also announced an upcoming update for O+ Connect for Mac, which will allow users to access files stored on their Mac directly from the phone’s Files app—eliminating the need for a remote desktop session for basic file transfers.
While it may seem like just another feature on an Oppo phone—one of the Chinese brands with a much smaller market share than Apple or Samsung in the US and many other global markets—this is actually a significant development. It lets Apple users experience innovation without sacrificing the core functionalities of Apple’s ecosystem.
According to reports, Oppo is gearing up to launch its next-generation Find X8 Ultra and an X8-series phone with a compact design. Now that Oppo has launched the Find N5 in China, the X8 Ultra and the other models are expected to launch in March in China. Tipsters Digital Chat Station and Smart Pikachu have released new Weibo posts to share some information about these upcoming devices.
Find X8 Ultra to be slimmer than its rivals
According to DCS, the Oppo Find X8 Ultra is set to be the only Ultra-branded flagship from a Chinese smartphone manufacturer to feature a flat display. Its upcoming rivals, such as Xiaomi 15 Ultra and Vivo X200 Ultra, are expected to feature a micro-quad-curved screen.
Both tipsters have also claimed that the Find X8 Ultra is the thinnest and lightest among the upcoming Ultra models. This is in line with a recent confirmation from Oppo’s Find Series Product Manager, Zhou Yibao, who said that Oppo is prioritising thin and lightweight designs this year, and the X8 Ultra is no exception.
Oppo to offer thin and lightweight design upcoming phones
Reports have revealed that the Find X8 Ultra will have a 6.8-inch 2K OLED display and feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. The Hasselblad-branded quad-camera system will undoubtedly be the X8 Ultra’s major highlight. This setup includes a 50-megapixel 1-inch primary sensor, dual 50-megapixel periscope telephoto lenses, and a 50-megapixel ultra-wide sensor. Additionally, the device will house a 6,000mAh battery with 80W wired and 50W wireless charging support.
A slim, lightweight Find X8 mini is also coming
DCS leaks about the slim profile of alleged Find X8 Mini
Alongside the Ultra variant, Oppo is reportedly preparing a compact model with a 6.3-inch 1.5K LTPO OLED flat display. While earlier leaks referred to this model as the Find X8 Mini, new reports suggest it might launch under a different name. This device is said to have a thickness of around 7mm, making it one of the slimmest flagships in its size category.
It is expected to feature a MediaTek Dimensity 9400 chipset, a metal frame, and a 50-megapixel triple camera setup. The latter is expected to include an OIS-assisted 50-megapixel primary camera, an 8-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 50-megapixel Samsung JN5 periscope telephoto camera with 3.5x optical zoom. It is said to feature a new push-type Alert Slider.
The exact battery size of the device is not known. However, it is expected to support 80W wired and 50W wireless charging. Lastly, it may weigh around 180 grams.

Motorola’s Razr+ (2025)/ Razr 60 Ultra has been making the rounds online, with rumors and reports revealing some of the key specs of the brand’s flagship flip phone. But now, a fresh certification sighting has revealed that Motorola is also working on the Motorola Razr 60 model as well.
Motorola Razr 60 Launch Seems Imminent
Motorola Razr 50
The company’s next gen flip phone, the Razr 60, has just spotted on China’s 3C certification carrying the XT2553-2 model number. As the name suggests, this model is the base model in the Razr 60 series and will be more affordable than the Razr 60 Ultra. The sighting on the online database did not reveal many details regarding the Razr 60, but it did list the device with a 33W charging adapter that carries the MC-338L model number (Via TheTechoutlook).
To recall, the Motorola Razr 50 launched with 30W wired fast charging and 15W wireless fast charging. So the Razr 60 could be getting a slight bump in charging rates this year. This is one of the earliest sighting of the Razr 60 Ultra (Aka Razr+ 2025) as we have mostly spotted the Razr 60 Ultra online. The Ultra variant visited the GeekBench platform with the Snapdragon 8 Elite.
Since the Razr 50 came with the Dimensity 7300X, we could expect a similar just in performance with the new Razr 60. The brand could make the shift to Snapdragon or use a better MediaTek chip for this model. Unfortunately, this is all the information we have at the moment, so stick around for more.

Motorola’s 2024 Edge and Stylus offerings are excellent mid-range options. Both smartphones offer compelling features, but the Motorola Edge (2024) offers a more premium experience. From a more powerful chipset to faster charging, it brings plenty to the table.
The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) isn’t without its perks. This might actually be the better pick for some buyers. In this post, we’ll tell you four strong reasons why the Edge (2024) is a smarter choice — but also two reasons that might push you to think twice.
4 reasons to choose Motorola Edge (2024) over Moto G Stylus (2024)
1. Better durability
Both smartphones have eco-leather backs that make holding the device a good experience. The added texture makes me more confident about carrying any of the two Motorola phones without putting on a case.
What differentiates them here is the aluminium frame on the Motorola Edge (2024), which makes it look more premium and offers added protection compared to the plastic frame on the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024). The former also has an IP68 rating for protection against dust and water, while the Stylus lacks any IP rating. For additional protection, the Edge (2024)’s display has Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection.
2. Better gaming performance
The Edge (2024) is powered by the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2, which is slightly more powerful than the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 that drives the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024). Both chipsets have been fabbed on TSMC’s 4nm process node and have the same CPU cores — four Cortex-A78 and four Cortex-A55. It’s just the higher clock speed on the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2 that brings the difference. The same goes for GPU; both have Adreno 710, but the 7s Gen 2 operates at a slightly higher frequency.
Take a look the benchmark scores below.
AnuTu (v10) result:
Motorola Edge (2024)
Moto G Stylus 5G (2024)
AnTuTu score

Much like AnTuTu, Geekbench shows a similar CPU performance for the Motorola Edge (2024) and Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) in both single-core and multi-core tests.
3DMark Extreme result:
Motorola Edge (2024)
Moto G Stylus 5G (2024)
3DMark Extreme (High)
794

3DMark Extreme (Low)
614
608
In both 3DMark Extreme tests, the Snapdragon 7s Gen 2-powered Motorola Edge (2024) is ahead of the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024).
These benchmark scores suggest that while the CPU performance may be similar on both phones, the Motorola Edge (2024) has better GPU performance. So, this phone will have better gaming performance than the other. However, for everyday tasks like browsing the internet, reading emails, and scrolling through social media feeds, both phones do a very good job.
3. Excellent connectivity
While both Motorola phones have necessary connectivity features, the Edge (2024) benefits from newer Wi-Fi and Bluetooth standards. This phone supports Wi-Fi 6E, which provides additional channels that reduce congestion and improve performance in crowded environments. Thus, it offers faster speed and lower latency. This also means the Edge (2024) is more future-proof.
The Motorola Edge (2024) also benefits from a newer Bluetooth 5.2 standard compared to Bluetooth 5.1 on the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024). The former is more power efficient and reduces latency. Bluetooth 5.2 also supports multi-stream capability, allowing the device to send audio to multiple outputs simultaneously.
4. Less charging time
The two Motorola phones have the same 5,000mAh battery. However, they bring considerable differences in terms of charging speeds. The Motorola Edge (2024), for example, supports 68W wired charging, while the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) peaks at 30W. The wireless charging, however, is the same on both phones — 15W.
2 reasons to choose Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) over Motorola Edge (2024)
The built-in stylus is one of the biggest reasons to choose the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) over the Edge (2024). It brings a whole new level of functionality, such as taking quick notes, marking up documents, or sketching. It also improves touch accuracy and overall usability.
Motorola has also been improving the stylus experience to make it more intuitive and responsive, making tasks like writing, drawing, and even navigating the UI smoother and more enjoyable.
2. A microSD slot, headphone jack
One could argue that people are shifting to cloud storage, but there’s nothing better than having files on the device itself, as accessing them is always going to be faster and easier and doesn’t require an internet connection. Thus, many people still look for a microSD slot. It’s also a cheaper way to get additional storage. The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) has a card slot, but the Edge (2024) doesn’t.
The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) also has a 3.5mm headphone jack. This is still a big deal for many smartphone users and might affect their purchase decisions. Wired headphones are believed to offer better sound quality and do not have latency issues that sometimes occur with Bluetooth devices.
Motorola Edge (2024) vs Moto G Stylus 5G (2024): Conclusion
The Edge (2024) has an aluminum frame that makes it look more premium and improves protection against accidental drops. The IP68 rating and Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection make it a sound choice over the Moto G Stylus (2024), which lacks any of these.

The Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) has its own benefits. The built-in stylus itself is a big deal for many people. The device also has a microSD card slot and a 3.5mm headphone jack. One must also note that the Edge (2024) has a curved display, while the Moto G Stylus 5G (2024) brings a flat display. Set your priorities, and go for the one that ticks most boxes.
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 packs a 4,400mAh battery, much smaller than those from many of its competitors. For example, the Oppo Find N5 packs a 5,600mAh battery. Despite this, the Samsung foldable has outperformed several competitors in the test, which proves that battery optimization matters as much as battery capacity.
Galaxy Z Fold 6 beats several rivals in battery drain test
The test performed by YouTube creator The Tech Chap included a total of six foldable phones:
All the devices were set to 150 nits brightness, connected to Wi-Fi, and tested with benchmarks, YouTube streaming, 4K video recording, and social media browsing one by one to test and compare battery performance in each scenario.
Surprisingly, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 lasted 8 hours and 46 minutes, outperforming phones with much bigger batteries, including:
OnePlus Open (7 hours, 9 minutes)
Pixel 9 Pro Fold (7 hours, 33 minutes)
Honor Magic V3 (7 hours, 43 minutes)
However, it wasn’t the best performer. The Vivo X Fold 3 Pro lasted 9 hours, and the Oppo Find N5 topped the list with 10 hours and 2 minutes of usage. The Z Fold 6 would probably outperform both the Oppo and Vivo devices in the test given it had the same capacity.
Unfortunately, its successor is rumored to equip the same capacity, meaning an improvement in battery life will still be completely dependent on software optimization. The Z Fold 7 will reportedly launch with One UI 7.0.1 instead of One UI 7.1.1, so don’t expect any major improvement over what we get with the recently launched bar flagships.

Chinese smartphone brands like OnePlus, Vivo, Xiaomi, and others are already ahead of the curve in battery technology. Thanks to new battery tech, the companies have managed to offer massive battery cells in sleek devices. Now, it seems like OnePlus might be pushing the boundaries even further with the world’s largest mobile battery. So here’s what we know.
OnePlus could be working on an 8,000mAh battery
OnePlus 13R Battery
For those unaware, Chinese brands are packing massive cells in their smartphones thanks to the new silicon-carbon (Si/C) battery technology. But according to Digital Chat Station, OnePlus (and by its extension even Oppo) could be working on a battery pack with a massive 8,000mAh capacity. The known tipster claims that the increase in battery capacity is possible due to the silicon content seeing a rise to 15 percent, which is a sizeable jump over 6 percent on the OnePlus Ace 3 Pro (Review).
To recall, silicon can store a lot more lithium ions than graphite, which is we have recently seen a jump in capacity sizes in the latest Chinese flagships. Along with its massive size, the next gen battery also supports 80W SuperVOOC wired fast charging. OnePlus might not immediately make the shift to an 8,000mAh battery, but we could be seeing a 7,000mAh powered OnePlus flagship soon.
Based on Digital Chat Station’s claims, the development of the new battery tech is being undertaken by the Ouga Lab, which is a research and development team under OnePlus and Oppo. Keep in mind that this is still just an unconfirmed report at this point, so take this news with a pinch of salt.

Tecno is gearing up for a big announcement at MWC Barcelona 2025, and yes, it’s mostly about AI. Under the theme “Create the AI Future,” the company is going to unveil a whole new AI-powered product ecosystem, which includes a fresh CAMON Series smartphone, AI glasses, and a laptop.
If you’re attending, you can catch all the action at booth 6B11 in Hall 6, Fira Gran Via—and from the looks of it, there’s a lot to be excited about.
A bigger AI ecosystem from Tecno is on the horizon
Tecno has been working on enriching its devices with helpful AI features for quite a while, and now the company is reportedly aiming to create its AI ecosystem to enrich the life of users in emerging markets. And this year’s MWC presence will serve as an introduction to some of its newest developments to the world.

They will also be showcasing the Phantom V Fold2 5G (review) and Phantom V Flip2 5G, the foldable smartphones from last year. For those unfamiliar, these aren’t just sleek devices—they also pack several AI tools designed to boost creativity, productivity, and efficiency.
AI Glasses—Tecno is expanding beyond phones
One of the most exciting reveals this year? AI glasses. Yes, Tecno is stepping into a whole new product category, and while details are still under wraps, there’s a good chance these glasses will bring something fresh to the table. The new product is expected to offer a unique way to interact with augmented reality and smart tech.
There’s also a new AI-powered laptop, which is likely a part of the MEGABOOK series. If you’re into lightweight yet powerful laptops, this one might be worth keeping an eye on. Tecno is clearly expanding its portfolio beyond smartphones, and this move into a more comprehensive AI-driven ecosystem is something to watch.
This year, all eyes will be on the Phantom Ultimate 2, an ultra-thin tri-fold smartphone designed to rethink the large-screen experience. Previously teased in a concept video, this might be the first time we see a physical prototype.
While this is just an introduction to what the company is working on and doesn’t show how much actual value the development will add to the market, it’s still good to see the company pushing cutting-edge technologies and increasing competition across brands.
Last week, tipster Digital Chat Station leaked the display details of Apple’s long-rumored foldable device. Early leaks claimed Apple would not launch a horizontally foldable iPhone but instead go ahead with a flip-style foldable phone. However, newer leaks suggest that the company is now preparing to launch a book-style foldable phone. Today, the tipster is back with a new Weibo post to reveal that Apple will have a unique approach for its upcoming foldable iPhone.
Apple’s foldable prototype surfaces with new design details
Upcoming foldable iPhone’s details leaked
According to Digital Chat Station’s Weibo post, the prototype Apple is currently testing features a 5.49-inch outer screen and a 7.74-inch inner display. This makes it notably smaller than competing foldable devices like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold.
Oppo Find N
The leak states that the outer display is similar to the original Find N but shorter and wider. Upon unfolding, the device would transform into a mini-tablet experience, revealing a spacious 7.74-inch inner display, akin to a compact iPad. It appears that both displays will offer a unique screen ratio that has not been seen before.
DCS claims that Apple’s foldable iPhone will reshape the foldable ecosystem
The leaker also hinted in the comments that Apple aims to “reshape the folding ecosystem,” suggesting a fresh take on foldable technology.
iPhone 17 Pro leaked render by FrontPageTech
Apple is expected to adopt a new design for the iPhone 17 series, which is anticipated to launch in September 2025. Reports suggest that the iPhone 17 Pro will adopt a new rectangular camera module with three cameras on the left and an LED flash along with some sensors on the right, as shown in a render shared by FrontPageTech. There’s a possibility that the foldable iPhone may sport a similar camera module in a bid to standardize the design across its upcoming iPhones.
Foldable iPhone’s pricing tipped
According to tipster Experience More, Apple’s foldable iPhone will not be priced at 19,999 Yuan (~$2,750) as some reports have claimed. Just as the Samsung Ultra, Huawei Ultra/RS, and Apple Pro Max models fall within the same price range, Apple’s foldable iPhone is expected to be in the same price bracket as Samsung and Huawei’s foldable devices when it launches.
As for the launch, Apple is expected to release it in 2026. At present, there is no information about the official moniker of the device.
