Wild Galaxy S26 Ultra leak points to a massively upgraded 200MP camera

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A leaker has claimed that the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra could get a Sony-made 200MP camera. This camera would be notably larger than the 200MP main camera used on the S25 Ultra, suggesting improved image quality. This would be an uncharacteristic move by Samsung, as it’s typically been conservative with hardware upgrades. The Galaxy S25 Ultra has the same 200MP main camera seen on Samsung’s previous two Ultra phones, and we weren’t expecting an upgrade in

Reolink Altas Review: As Good as a Battery-Powered Security Camera Gets

I find cameras bolted onto my home supremely useful, although maybe not for the reasons I’m expected to. Yes, I care whether a camera reliably detects that someone is on my porch, but it’s not about break-ins—I mostly want to know when my packages have been delivered. Otherwise, I want a security camera to reliably record, be easy to use, last a long time on a charge, and not need a cloud subscription to work. So far, after more than a week with the Reolink Altas, the battery-powered Wi-Fi camer

Cameo’s birthday reminder app, Candl, is a weak attempt at a comeback

Around this time last year, Cameo hit a significant low point. Its valuation dropped by at least 90%, and the company’s dire financial situation meant it was unable to pay a $600,000 fine from the FTC. Now, the company behind the celebrity greeting app is exploring a new, albeit somewhat dull, avenue for growth. On Thursday, Cameo announced the launch of Candl, a birthday planning app designed for forgetful users who want to celebrate their friends’ birthdays without being late to the party. I

The Petkit Purobox Ultra is $250 off for Prime Day

I held the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and it finally feels like Samsung actually tried

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series is the most widely available book-style foldable phone family. However, I’ve only begrudgingly recommended these devices to people wanting a large foldable. That’s mostly because Samsung has coasted on the design and hardware front while rivals have sprinted ahead with exciting designs and impressive hardware. After laying my hands on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, though, I’d argue that in some ways, it’s the most cutting-edge foldable

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 is thinner, lighter and has a larger 8-inch display

With the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Samsung is getting closer than ever to perfecting its folding smartphones. The new model is a substantial improvement over the Fold 6 with a much thinner, lighter design, larger and brighter display and an improved hinge design that reduces visible creasing to almost nothing. It's also more powerful and comes with a new wide-angle camera that finally matches up with the mainstream Galaxy S series. Though it superficially resembles the previous model, Sams

Everything Samsung Announced at Its Summer Galaxy Unpacked Event

The Fold7 measures 8.9 millimeters when folded, a drastic reduction from the 12.1-mm Galaxy Z Fold6. Unfold it, and you're looking at a minuscule 4.2 mm of thickness, down from 5.6 mm last year.

The Fold7 is also lighter at 215 grams, a 24-gram drop from the Fold6. It weighs less than an iPhone 16 Pro Max. What's even crazier is that the
