Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 ZDNET's key takeaways The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is an excellent upgrade over its predecessor, thanks to its slim and light design, a strong hinge and a wider coverscreen. It's very expensive at $2,000 for the starting configuration.

Galaxy S25 FE leak reveals new colors, bad news for RAM and storage

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-02 08:04:58

TL;DR The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 FE could have 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. While these may be sufficient for most people right now, the specs aren’t very future-proof, especially given the pace of development of AI features. Samsung is expected to charge about $700 for the base variant of the Galaxy S25 FE, which makes these specs difficult to digest. Samsung is hard at work on its next launch, which is most likely the Galaxy S25 FE. We’ve seen several specs leak f

So, things like images, scripts, and cookies that your browser saves on your phone to make pages load faster the next time you visit.

Robert Triggs / Android Authority We’re fast approaching the launch of the new Pixel 10 series and iPhone 17, and the one thing I’m really dreading is another year of sluggish charging speeds. While Google’s Pro XL model has gradually increased its charging power to a level close to Samsung’s Ultra, the smaller, more popular flagship phones in the US are stuck charging below 25W.

The best music headphones of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

In theory, all headphones should sound great when you're listening to music, but not all are specifically designed to provide a high-quality music listening experience. That's not always a bad thing, as some headphones are built more to offer lots of features and good noise-cancelation, while others focus more on a sleek and stylish design. Still, some headphones are designed more with high-quality sound in mind. These headphones don't always have excellent noise-cancelation or some of the high

Engineer Ken Pillonel has now built a low-profile USB-C adapter right into an iPhone case.
