Upgrading to the Galaxy Watch 8? I hope you’re not too attached to your old Galaxy watch bands…

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:00:50

TL;DR Samsung has introduced the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch 8 Classic with a brand-new Dynamic Lug System for watch bands. While the new system promises better comfort and 11% more accurate heart rate tracking, older Galaxy Watch bands and other standard third-party 20mm bands are no longer compatible with the new smartwatches. Users with a collection of older straps will need to invest in new ones designed for the Galaxy Watch 8 series. Samsung has officially launched the Galaxy Watch 8

Samsung’s new foldables are nearly perfect, but I still won’t upgrade from an older Fold or Flip

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:00:55

It’s summer, and that means it’s time for Samsung’s newest foldables — the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7. And the good news is that this year, the new phones don’t just offer small refinements over last year’s models. The devices have fewer compromises, feel less awkward in the hand, and the cameras are no longer playing catch-up with the mainline series. It’s clear Samsung’s folding phone lineup is finally maturing in the right direction. That said, I can’t help but feel a little cautious since t

I’ve seen the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 and 8 Classic and I don’t hate the squircle redesign

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:01:24

Samsung’s Galaxy Watches have looked almost identical since the brand returned to Wear OS with the Galaxy Watch 4 in 2021, with the exception of last year’s Galaxy Watch Ultra. Now the rest of the Galaxy Watch line-up is changing to match their Ultra cousin with a new shape and strap mechanism that makes the Watch 8 series the biggest redesign in Samsung’s wearable history. I had some brief hands-on time with the Galaxy Watch 8 and 8 Classic, and they could be Samsung’s best, despite the quirky

Z Fold 7? Samsung exec confirms that Galaxy Z Fold 8 is in the works

TL;DR A Samsung executive has confirmed that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is already in development. The executive was responding to a question about a possible Galaxy Z Fold 7 Special Edition phone. This news comes after the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition was released last year as an unofficial proof of concept for the Fold 7.

5 reasons I’d buy the Galaxy Z Flip 7 over the Fold 7

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:09:00

Samsung’s new foldables may look like minor upgrades on the surface, but give them a closer look and the changes add up — enough to finally catch up with what Oppo and OnePlus have already been doing design-wise. Thankfully, Samsung’s finally in the same league again. And of the two foldables they’ve launched, I’m leaning strongly toward the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7. To be honest, I haven’t been a fan of the Galaxy Z Flip lineup so far — it always felt like it was trying too hard to milk nostalg

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series is the most widely available book-style foldable phone family. However, I’ve only begrudgingly recommended these devices to people wanting a large foldable. That’s mostly because Samsung has coasted on the design and hardware front while rivals have sprinted ahead with exciting designs and impressive hardware. After laying my hands on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, though, I’d argue that in some ways, it’s the most cutting-edge foldable

Samsung's slimmer Galaxy Watch 8 series includes Gemini access

engadget.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:00:01

Samsung just unveiled the Galaxy Watch 8 at its Unpacked event today. This is a fairly major redesign with some nifty-looking features. It boasts a smaller profile, with the company claiming it's the slimmest smartwatch it has ever made. It's 8.6mm thick, which makes it around 11 percent slimmer than the Watch 7. It ships with a new test that gauges the levels of antioxidants in the body. This is done by leveraging optical sensors. We gave this feature a try in a hands-on demo and came away fai

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 hands-on: Bigger screens, bigger battery, better foldable?

engadget.com Unknown 2025-08-24 15:00:08

Once again, it’s time for Samsung’s mid-year Galaxy foldable showcase. Over the last 10 years, Samsung gave us curved edges, curved screens, and then screens that fold (both ways). While we’re still waiting for that rumored tri-fold Galaxy, Samsung has primed two new Flip foldables, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and (surprise!) the Z Flip 7 FE. First, there’s the Galaxy Z Flip 7. This year, the biggest change is a larger 4.1-inch second display with cutouts for the dual cameras. This occupies the entire

Pre-release leaks may have spoiled most of the surprises Samsung had up its sleeve for Wednesday's Unpacked event, but there were still some interesting details to gleam from the presentation. For example, we knew the Galaxy Z Fold 7 would be Samsung's thinnest foldable ever, but now we know part of the reason for that is because the company dropped S Pen support.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 Hands-On: The Cover Screen Is No Longer Made for Ants

Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Samsung’s Z Flip 7 feels less like a major leap forward. Announced at Unpacked, the fllp-style smartphone has the largest cover screen that Samsung’s ever put on phone that folds in half like an old cellphone, and certain specs are improved, but the dimensions still feel like the Z Flip 6.
