TL;DR The HONOR Magic V Flip 2 will reportedly have a 5,500mAh battery. This would mean it has the largest battery out of all Flip foldable phones. HONOR’s rumored Flip phone will apparently launch later this month. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 offers a 4,300mAh battery, which is a small but welcome bump over last year’s model. However, rivals like the Motorola Razr Ultra 2025 go even larger. It now looks like HONOR could also up the ante. Leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that the

Own a Samsung phone? 10 settings I always change first for the best user experience

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Nothing has defended criticism about the Phone 3’s price by saying that the device isn’t meant for every region. Specifically, a Nothing spokesperson told Bloomberg that the company’s largest market isn’t the core focus for Phone 3 — a statement fans might find problematic. The company also noted it has no plans to lower the price of the device. The Nothing Phone 3 is proving to be divisive by design…literally. Its offbeat camera layout, new Glyph Mat
