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

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

This year’s most unique iPhone model will be the iPhone 17 Air, a brand new entry to Apple’s lineup.

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. It's a strategy that's worked well for one of the company's foldable phone competitors, Motorola, which has Razr models starting as low as $700 and as much as $1,300. The new Galaxy Z Flip 7, which starts at $1,100, has been completely redesigned with a 4.1-inch cover screen, a 6.9-inch main

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 just sold me on a foldable iPhone

For years, I’ve been snickering at foldable phones, the perpetual “next big thing” that never quite gets here. And while I still think Samsung is mostly winning in this market by walkover, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 might have just made Apple’s case for what a foldable iPhone could look like. And I like it. The double-stacked tradeoff was always a dealbreaker Ever since its first edition, Samsung’s flagship foldable has looked to me like a bulky prototype that somehow escaped the lab. Sure, the compa

Things I learned from 5 years at Vercel

5 things I learned from 5 years at Vercel july 2025 – lee robinson After five years at Vercel, I just finished my last week. What a ride! When I joined in 2020, we were 30 people and had crossed $1M ARR. Today, Vercel is 650 people and over $200M ARR. During that time, I went from IC to VP and worked on DevRel, product, community, docs, and more. Here are some of the lessons I learned and how I grew as a leader and manager, as well as a bunch of behind-the-scenes photos. Next.js Conf 2024 V

Why Buy Flagship Phones if 'Budget' Phones Are Just as Good Now?

The concept of a budget-friendly phone lost its meaning this week when Samsung announced its new Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE costs an eye-watering $900. It's similar in looks and ability to its premium-model sister phone, and it even has the same cameras. Earlier this year, Apple released its more budget-friendly iPhone 16E, which also got jeers for an higher-than-expected price of $600. It carries the same processor as the main iPhone 16, but lacks one rear camera. The cost of phones is expected to co

Samsung says it could’ve charged more for its already expensive foldable phones

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung mobile chief TM Roh says the company absorbed the increased production costs associated with its new foldable phones. Roh claimed that these costs are due to “significant innovations” in the new devices. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 starts at $1,099 while the Galaxy Z Fold 7 starts at $1,999.

Samsung’s budget Galaxy Z Flip is here, but it’s not what I was hoping for

Samsung’s recent generations have taught me one thing: I love its Fan Edition lineup. From traditional smartphones to tablets to wearables, it’s won me over time and again, offering just the right mix of specs and price to make sense for those who want a flagship experience without the cost. And, when I heard that it might be expanding to include a foldable phone for the first time, you better believe I was excited. After all, I have a soft spot for anything and everything that flips, and would

The Morning After: First impressions of Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7 and the rest

It’s the summer, so that means Samsung foldables, wearables and awkward celebrity appearances. This year, the company introduced three new folding smartphones, but that didn’t include the rumored ‘ultra’ trifold — that’s coming later this year . The Galaxy Fold 7 ( $2,000 ) has a bigger 8-inch unfolded screen and a camera array that matches the S25 Ultra. However, there’s no more support for the S Pen. Removing the digitizer layer for styluses meant Samsung could make the device even thinner. T

5 iPhone 17 Pro Max Rumors Are Making Me Rethink My Next Upgrade

The reveal of the next iPhone 17 models is still two months away, but rumors of their features, looks and specs are in full bloom right now. Normally I'd wait to see what Apple actually announces, but several leaks about the iPhone 17 Pro Max in particular have caught my attention. And because now is when people start thinking about fall budgets and whether their current iPhone can make it until new ones are here, it seems like a good time to dive in. After all, two months is going to zip by fas
