The Pixel 10 Pro Fold dimensions tell a grim yet promising story

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-21 11:30:23

Late last week, we got a sneak peek at the upcoming Pixel 10 series’ dimensions. While all phones in the line-up are getting heavier than their predecessors in the Pixel 9 series, it’s the Pixel 10 Pro Fold that jumped out to me, mostly because it’s eschewing the entire foldable industry’s trend right now. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is slightly narrower than the 9 Pro Fold (while also sporting smaller bezels and a larger outer display), but it’s a little thicker when unfolded, even thicker when fold

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is finally thin enough, here’s what Samsung should fix next

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-23 18:00:41

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a major step forward for Samsung; it’s the lightest and arguably thinnest foldable phone on the planet. That’s a dramatic upgrade over last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 6, which looked dated compared to rival devices. Here’s the thing, though. We’re now at the point where the Galaxy Z Fold and other foldable phones are arguably thin enough; they are now a hair thicker than conventional smartphones. If we no longer need thinner phones, here’s what I’d like Samsung to do next with

Considering Samsung's new Z Flip 7? Why I recommend waiting for next year's model

The expanded cover screen finally feels complete, DeX support is an incredible bonus on such a tiny footprint, and its battery life got a solid bump up. But while the Z Flip 7 closes the gap with rivals like the Moto Razr Ultra, it's worth looking ahead to what next year's Z Flip 8 might bring. Apple reportedly has plans to bring its flavor of fol
