cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-07-30 14:00:04

While competitors release predictable updates to their smartwatches, Samsung isn't afraid to surprise us (for better or worse) with design and feature changes each year. And with the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic in particular, announced at Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event, my favorite feature has made a welcome reappearance: the physical rotating bezel, a touch of romantic elegance that made me fall in love with Galaxy Watches in the first place. The Galaxy Watch 8 also has a new look and thinner frame

Galaxy Z Flip 7’s Exynos 2500 benchmarked: Flagship power or foldable flop?

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-07-30 11:30:11

In a first for Samsung’s foldables, the new Galaxy Z Flip 7 sports a Samsung Exynos processor instead of its usual Qualcomm Snapdragon chip. I’m reasonably convinced the Exynos 2500 looks more than good enough on paper, even if it won’t quite match the Snapdragon 8 Elite inside the Galaxy S25 series and Z Fold 7. But the real proof is in the testing, so I’ve run the Galaxy Z Flip 7 through our usual suite of benchmarks to see just how far off the top spot it really is. For comparison, we’ve gra

Crypto Billionaire Justin Sun Buys Another $100 Million of Trump’s Memecoin

gizmodo.com Lucas Ropek 2025-07-30 13:10:52

Justin Sun, the founder of the Tron blockchain, announced this week that he had purchased yet another $100 million of Donald Trump’s memecoin, $TRUMP. Sun already owns a substantial amount of the asset. The crypto mogul also announced that the coin would soon be tradable on his blockchain. All of this is complicated by the fact that Sun still appears to be bogged down in a civil fraud case brought against him by the Securities and Exchange Commission. In 2023, the SEC launched a lawsuit against

Samsung's New Phones Show How Far Ahead China Is on Innovation

Earlier this week, Samsung announced the latest generation of its high-end foldable phones at its Summer Galaxy Unpacked event. The Galaxy Z Fold7 and the Galaxy Z Flip7 are variously lighter, thinner, less crease-prone than before. They are more expensive too. Some call them the “foldables to beat.” It’s Samsung messaging and a commentator response that sounds an awful lot like what we heard last year.

Smart earrings and necklaces? Samsung is looking into new types of wearables

Jonathan Feist / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is actively looking into new types of wearable devices. This includes earrings, necklaces, bracelets, pendants, and so on. Whatever the company lands on is expected to be a companion device to your phone, rather than a standalone product. Samsung already offers a long list of products in its mobile portfolio, including smartphones, tablets, and more. Still, the company is looking for ways to expand its mobile offerings.

Galaxy Z Flip 7 Hands-On: I'm Excited About the Bigger Screens, Battery and FE Variant

Are two Samsung Galaxy Z Flip phones better than one? That's the question I kept pondering as I held the new Galaxy Z Flip 7 in one hand and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE in the other at a Samsung press preview.
