Samsung Teases ‘Ultra’ Foldable for Unpacked Event Next Month

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-08-31 07:00:13

Is it already time for another Samsung Unpacked event? You bet your ass it is. Samsung has announced it’ll be hosting an event next month on July 9 for what’ll presumably be its latest Galaxy Z Flip and Z Fold foldable Android phones. Unlike previous years, when Samsung announced new foldable phones in Paris and Seoul, this go-around will be in Brooklyn, New York (my hometown!) starting at 10:00 a.m. ET / 7 a.m. PT. Gizmodo will be at the event live, but there will also be a live stream on Sams

Samsung confirms Unpacked for early July

Samsung’s summer Unpacked is officially on, starting at 10AM ET on Wednesday, July 9th. The invitation features a jazzy little bop and the words “Ultra Unfolds,” so I think it’s safe to assume we’re getting that foldable Ultra phone the company previously hinted at.

Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold could be one of the first foldables with an IP68 rating

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-31 23:19:41

TL;DR The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is said to sport a smaller hinge. The outer display may be bigger than last year, despite the device being roughly the same size. Google’s foldable could have an IP68 rating. As other brands race to make the thinnest foldable on the market, there haven’t really been any hints that Google is chasing after the same goal. Even if Google may not be interested in claiming the title of world’s thinnest, it seems we can still expect the Pixel 10 Pro Fold to be a bit slimm

MIT engineers use 3D-printed steel to repair corroded bridge

The big picture: According to the American Society of Civil Engineers, more than half of the 623,218 bridges in the US are in a state of significant deterioration. Getting them back in good standing would cost north of $191 billion – no small chunk of change. For researchers at MIT, finding a more cost-effective solution using modern technology is a worthy cause. Using a laser-based additive manufacturing technique called cold spray, the team successfully repaired a corroded section of a bridge

Pixel 9 Pro Fold vs. Oppo Find N5 Camera Comparison: Which Pictures Look Better?

Foldable phones like the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and Oppo Find N5 have redefined smartphone design. But ultimately, what most people just want to know: How good are the cameras? I snapped photos on both book-style foldables to see how the cameras stack up. Each phone had its strengths, from sharpness to texture to life-like colors, and they took turns claiming the "winner" title. In general, you won't find the best phone cameras on foldables because of their design. A thinner phone calls for a smalle

Zuckerberg's Employees Have a Wild New Nickname for Him

Half a year in, it seems like Mark Zuckerberg's right-wing turn — which came complete with a woo-woo midlife rebrand — is still going strong. Faced with the return of Donald Trump to the Oval Office, Zuckerberg conveniently molted out of his pseudo-progressive skin and into a darling of the manosphere. He's since appeared on shows like Joe Rogan to complain that US business culture needs to "regrow its manhood," because American capitalism is "culturally neutered." "A culture that celebrates t
