Almost four months before the expected Galaxy Unpacked event of the Galaxy S25 series, a proven leaker has revealed all four planned colors for the successor to the Samsung Galaxy S24, which, together with the Snapdragon 8 Elite aka Snapdragon 8 Gen 4, will utilize a much slimmer and lighter flagship design.

Nubia has copied an exciting feature from Xiaomi, Huawei and Honor and combined it with the only 35mm main camera of its future Snapdragon 8 Elite flagship smartphone, the Nubia Z70 Ultra. In doing so, Nubia is focusing even more strongly on its role as an outsider in 2025 with slightly different priorities than the mainstream brands.

It has been practically confirmed that at least one variant of the Vivo X Fold 3 successor will get a big increase in battery size, despite leakers expecting the next Zeiss-camera foldables to be even slimmer and set a new record in this regard.

Vivo is on the rise! In India, the company has overtaken Xiaomi and Samsung in smartphone sales for the first time and there are also increasing reports from China about new sales records for the new Vivo X200 series. Initial clues about the Vivo X200 Ultra have also emerged, which have also already been officially confirmed.

The last few hours and days have seen the leak of a number of new images and tidbits of information for Samsung fans who are already eagerly awaiting the Unpacked Event for the Galaxy S24 successors, which will take place in less than three months. How the three Samsung camera flagships will feel can already be simulated using dummies and accessories.

The Oppo Find X8 launch will take place in just a few hours, just enough time to show off a number of new sample photos from the Hasselblad camera, which focus on three main areas: speed, which is the main focus, as well as zoom and portrait shots with dual telephoto.

A cascade of new information about Samsung's 2025 smartphone lineup has been flooding South Korean media and analyst reports lately. Owing to the Snapdragon 8 Elite configuration, which is now practically set in stone, a price increase in the Galaxy S25 series appears inevitable, and Samsung also plans to conquer the foldable market in 2025 with exciting extensions to the Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip series.

(Update: Official Vivo statement with explanation and partial solution) Trouble in paradise is how you could describe the current situation on Chinese social media regarding the Vivo X200 Pro. After an initially extremely positive review and hands-on reports, the mood is slowly turning sour as many early buyers of the Zeiss camera flagship are complaining about a massive lens flare problem, which has not been confirmed by reviewers or Vivo.

Just under two months before the launch, a European website has explicitly named the key specs of the Galaxy S25 series and has even given concrete indications of one of the apparently planned pre-order deals. The leak refutes rumours of higher price ranges for the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25+ and Galaxy S25 Ultra.

The Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, which is only sold in South Korea and China as the Samsung W25, offers more new camera features than just the 200 MP sensor from the Galaxy S24 Ultra, as a detailed comparison test with a Galaxy Z Fold6 shows. A foretaste of the Galaxy Z Fold 7?
