Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8, Fold 8 Ultra and Flip 8 are seeing stronger-than-expected pre-order demand in South Korea, prompting shipment delays and depleted stock across several configurations. Fold 8 pre-orders are reportedly triple those of its predecessor.

Early reviews of Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 show its initially subtle display crease becoming more pronounced after a week of regular use. Testers say the change does not affect performance, but it does challenge claims that the foldable is "crease-free."

A leak has revealed Samsung is developing a new type of earbuds that will have earhooks. This will put the new earbuds in direct competition with models such as the premium Powerbeats Pro 2 and the more affordable Nothing Ear (Open).

Samsung has officially acknowledged the Galaxy Tab S12 and Galaxy S26 FE for the first time. The Galaxy Tab S12 was mentioned among the company's premium products scheduled for the second half of 2026, although the exact tablet lineup remains unconfirmed. The Galaxy S26 FE was also confirmed to be in the works.

A recent app leak has revealed Samsung's new open-ear, clip-on earbuds, likely called the Galaxy Buds On or Buds Able. As opposed to the traditional in-ear silicon tips earbuds, these new earbuds will sit outside the ear canal and will use Open Wireless Stereo technology.

The Galaxy A08 4G has been certified by the FCC, and the certification documents reveal a few details about the device including a key upgrade. However, some features are going to be carried over from its predecessor.

The Galaxy S26 FE will be the cheaper alternative to the Galaxy S26, and previous leaks have showcased the tweaked design, as well as faster charging speeds. Now, its pricing, color options, and release date have leaked.

Samsung Messages may be gone, but a new third-party app brings back its look and adds RCS support via Google’s platform. It’s not an official Samsung replacement, but it might be the closest thing yet for Galaxy users who don’t want to switch to Google Messages.

A fresh certification hints that Samsung’s Galaxy S26 FE will continue with 45W wired charging, like last year’s model. The phone is shaping up to be a modest refresh, with the Exynos 2500 chip and a redesigned camera module expected to headline the changes.

An upcoming Samsung tablet with the model number "SM-X848U" has appeared in the FCC database, pointing to a cellular variant of the Galaxy Tab S12+ for the US market. The certification reveals connectivity features of the upcoming device.

Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy S27 series in February next year with a host of improvements across the board. The Galaxy S27 Ultra and the Galaxy S27 Pro will get the most attention, but it looks like they will still miss out on faster RAM and storage.

Most people have heard about Samsung's plan for four Galaxy S27 camera-focused flagships in 2027 but according to industry insiders a new “4+4” strategy for H1 and H2 will bring way more than that. Based on the report, Samsung apparently intends to counter Apple's 20 year iPhone anniversary with a flood of new Galaxy smartphone-flagships, including a very exciting addition to its foldable-lineup.

Samsung’s One UI 9.0 introduces escalating lockout periods after failed unlock attempts, culminating in a permanent lock and mandatory factory reset after 13 distinct failures. The policy strengthens brute-force protection but raises the stakes for forgotten credentials, making reliable backups and access to linked Samsung and Google accounts essential.

Samsung has released videos showing its official cases for the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Fold 8 Ultra and Flip 8. The collection includes carbon, silicone and clear options for the Fold models, while the Flip 8 adds ring-equipped and customizable Flipsuit designs.

After multiple generations of stagnation, Samsung is finally geared to equip its next generation of flagship phones with new camera hardware. The Galaxy S27, S27 Plus, S27 Pro, and S27 Ultra are set to debut next year, and a new report has now provided information on what to expect.

A new leak claims Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S27 and S27+ will use a 50MP Sony sensor for their main camera instead of an in-house ISOCELL sensor. If accurate, it would mark the first time since the Galaxy S21 and S21+ in 2021 that Samsung has turned to Sony for its primary camera hardware.

They are barely on the market yet and already people are looking three months into their future. In addition to a Samsung insider commenting on the crease on his Galaxy Z Fold 8 prototype after three months of use, an early adopter suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series possesses “self-healing powers.”

A Korean tech community leak suggests the Galaxy Z Fold9 Ultra could match the Galaxy S27 Ultra’s camera setup, featuring a new 200MP HP6 main sensor and a 50MP 5x periscope telephoto lens. While the rumored upgrade would narrow the camera gap between Samsung’s foldable and slab-style Ultra phones, the specifications remain unconfirmed and could change before launch.

Seven years of development have gone into the new Galaxy Z series, and the result is more than just a thinner body. With "Flex Titanium," Samsung is introducing an aerospace-grade material to foldable displays on a large scale for the first time, thereby making room for a more powerful battery, faster charging, and greater everyday practicality. A look behind the scenes of a technology that demonstrates how user feedback transforms into true engineering excellence, but Samsung remains adamant only when it comes to PWM.

Samsung’s €749 Galaxy Watch Ultra2 pairs a larger 800 mAh battery and Snapdragon Wear Elite chipset with a thinner titanium design and expanded trail-running tools. Developed with Mares, its dive-tracking features add real-time depth and temperature data, though full dive computer functionality requires a separate app.

Samsung has officially unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, its thinnest foldable to date. The flagship introduces a 4.1 mm chassis, new Flex Titanium Technology, larger AMOLED displays, a 200 MP camera system, and a larger battery with faster charging.

Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip8 has been unveiled at Unpacked London with a 6.1 mm unfolded profile, 180 g weight, Exynos 2600, and an expanded AI-capable FlexWindow. Both the cover and unfolded displays are 120 Hz, and the foldable comes with 25 W wired charging.

Samsung's Galaxy Glasses launch at Unpacked London with Snapdragon AR1 Gen 1, Google Gemini, a built-in camera, and up to 9-hour battery. Two designs via Gentle Monster and Warby Parker. Pricing is unavailable as of writing, and it's limited to select markets only.

The Galaxy event kicks off in less than 8 hours: Samsung will be unveiling several new products, most of which you already know in detail from recent leaks. Others however have leaked far less frequently. You can tune in when the Galaxy Z Fold 8, the first international competitor to the iPhone Ultra and a very exciting Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 are unveiled for the first time in London. The expected surprise guests are likely to be the first Samsung Android XR glasses, which should become available pretty soon according to fresh new information hours before Galaxy Unpacked.

Samsung has reportedly raised initial Galaxy Z Fold 8 production numbers, signaling confidence that the wider 4:3 model will outsell both the Z Fold 8 Ultra and Galaxy Z Flip 8. The shift comes as Apple prepares a rumored foldable iPhone.

For a long time, it was the deal you could always count on: Anyone who pre-ordered the new Galaxy smartphones received double the storage space at no extra cost. In an email, Samsung has now confirmed that this offer will no longer be available, at least for the upcoming smartphones.

Samsung's One UI 9 Beta 4 update improves the Galaxy S26 Ultra's Privacy Display feature so it only obscures a video playing in picture-in-picture mode. The rest of the screen remains fully visible, a change first previewed at MWC earlier this year.

Samsung has introduced a new credit card dubbed the Galaxy Card, bringing cash rewards to users who purchase a new Galaxy product directly from Samsung as well as a lower reward for uses elsewhere. Applications begin from July 22nd, and users can get an extra cash bonus in the first 90 days of account opening.

A sobering forecast for market leader Samsung: Apple's expected entry into the foldable smartphone market is set to put significant pressure on the South Korean company. According to new market projections, Apple's first foldable iPhone could capture a 25% market share in 2026 in its very first year on sale. Samsung is expected to remain the market leader with its upcoming Galaxy Z8 series, but its lead is projected to shrink dramatically.

Samsung Display has begun mass-producing tandem OLED laptop panels with VESA DisplayHDR True Black 1400 certification. Lenovo has already adopted the technology, with Asus, Dell and MSI expected to launch compatible laptops later this year.

Didn’t we just see leaked marketing material for all the new Samsung products expected at Galaxy Unpacked in a few hours? That’s right, but apparently that wasn't complete yet. New official marketing material not only provides further details on the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 diving capabilities and the Galaxy Watch 9 battery specs, it is also significantly higher quality.

Samsung is keeping its most meaningful upgrades for the Pro and Ultra variants in the Galaxy S27 series, or so it seems. The latest leak suggests that the base and Plus variants will not get the selfie camera upgrade everyone hoped for.

Leaked promotional renders suggest Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 will feature Qualcomm’s 3nm Snapdragon Wear Elite chip, dedicated on-device AI hardware, and a substantially larger 800 mAh battery. Expected to debut at Galaxy Unpacked on July 22, the smartwatch may also offer a 12% slimmer titanium case, IP69K protection, and two color options.

Samsung has launched the Freestyle+ portable Full HD projector in the US, featuring AI-powered image adjustment, a 100-inch maximum display and 360-degree audio. It also supports streaming, cloud gaming, wireless mirroring and USB-C battery packs for flexible indoor and outdoor use.

Leaked promotional renders suggest Samsung’s Galaxy Watch9 will replace the Exynos W1000 with Qualcomm’s 3 nm Snapdragon Wear Elite, promising stronger performance and dedicated on-device AI capabilities. The smartwatch is expected to debut in four colors alongside the Galaxy Watch Ultra2 at Samsung’s July 22 Galaxy Unpacked event.

Although the Instagram Story didn’t provide the very first glimpse, it did offer the first official look at the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8, which will be unveiled next week during the Galaxy Unpacked launch event. One of the BTS members was allowed to go ahead and "leak" the device in full glory.

(Update: Flip 7, not Flip 8) Trailers of the upcoming movie, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, have shown the titular character using a Samsung foldable. Now, Samsung has released a new video advert that explains how that decision came to be.

Leaked Samsung marketing materials reveal the camera configurations and battery capacities of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8 ahead of their expected July 22 debut. The Fold 8 Ultra leads with a 200MP main camera, a telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, and a 5,000mAh battery. Previously reported pricing starts at $1,899 for the standard Fold 8.

Samsung states that the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s reported red screen discoloration is caused by faulty color-correction software rather than permanent OLED damage. Affected users can have their devices fixed at service centers, but an update is expected to roll out more broadly soon.

Samsung is rolling out a new update for the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro, a minor update that focuses on stability and reliability rather than new features. Initially available in South Korea, the update is expected to reach other markets gradually.

Samsung has released One UI 9 Beta 4 for the Galaxy S26 series, delivering stability fixes and the July 2026 security patch as development moves closer to a public rollout, though a stable release date remains unconfirmed.

According to an industry report from South Korea, the usual pre-order perks for the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip 8 will no longer include one of Samsung's best promotions. The very popular free storage upgrade will reportedly be replaced by a new and significantly less attractive deal.

A reliable leaker has already provided plenty of details on the specs of the two Galaxy Z Fold 7 successors ahead of the Galaxy Unpacked event. Aside from their different form factors they differ in several key ways. Critics will certainly claim that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 was stripped of essential features and they wouldn't necessarily be wrong.

Samsung unveils Flex Titanium, a new foldable display structure built to tackle the category's most persistent complaint: the crease. The tech is expected to debut on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series this month.

A new leak suggests Samsung is considering several rear camera designs for the Galaxy S27 Ultra, none of which currently include the previously rumored horizontal camera bar. With the device still in development, its final appearance remains uncertain.

It was already expected that a 200-megapixel main camera currently doesn't fit inside the more compact Galaxy Z Fold 8. Now, a leaker has provided further details about the ISOCELL HP2 replacement and has also shared what appears to be an internal presentation slide showing all color options and the final dollar prices for the Galaxy Z Fold8, Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip8 in Australia, including the colors available exclusively from Samsung online.

The first Samsung Tri-Foldable may not have been a huge commercial success, but the competitor to the Huawei Mate XT did make it into mass production after all. Work is already underway on the successor, as industry insiders are currently affirming, but the final Galaxy Z TriFold2 may not be released until after the launch of Samsung’s first rollable device.

Samsung will unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, and the Galaxy Z Flip 8 on July 22, alongside new Galaxy smartwatches. While the upgrades to the traditional foldables are minor this time around, a software tweak to the Galaxy Z Flip 8 could make it more useful.

Global smartphone shipments dropped by 11% in the second quarter of 2026. Smartphone memory prices have surged as chip makers increasingly prioritize the lucrative AI data-center segment. Samsung and Apple are both handling the crisis remarkably well. By contrast, their Chinese competitors are heading downhill fast.

Samsung and Tesla are ready with the production version of the next AI5 FSD chip generation. The first Tesla vehicles to come out of the factory with an AI5 computer might be the Model Y and the Cybercab.
