I waited ages for an affordable Galaxy flip phone, but the Z Flip 7 FE isn’t it

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-11 20:00:15

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is the Galaxy Z Flip 6 with Exynos horsepower, which makes for a solid enough match day-to-day. Unfortunately, the $899 price tag seriously drags things down, while Samsung's cover screen software still lags behind rivals. Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip way back in 2020, and it’s lingered around the $1,000 mark ever since. We got our first hint of more affordable flip phones when Motorola started to launch cheaper Razr entries, follo

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Amazon’s Kindle Scribe shines at home or in the office, where its oversized canvas is perfect for notes and sketches. Take it on the road, though, and it quickly feels cumbersome. That’s why reMarkable’s new Paper Pro Move feels like a direct challenge. If reMarkable can shrink its notepad to a 7.3-inch form, Amazon has no excuse. It’s time for a pocket-sized Scribe.

iPhone Air launch in China delayed due to eSIM regulatory issues

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2025-10-11 19:42:25

The iPhone Air is Apple’s flashiest new iPhone model, featuring a strikingly thin industrial design. One of the ways Apple achieved this sleek profile was to maximise internal space by making all iPhones Airs rely on eSIM, with no physical SIM card slot model available. Despite announcing at the event that the iPhone Air would be available in China through carrier China Telecom, Apple has since delayed the launch.

The full moon is one of those sights that almost begs to be photographed, no matter what camera you’re using. Most of the time, that means a smartphone, and to be fair, modern phones are excellent at handling bright subjects like the moon. Of course, a telescope should reveal far more than a phone camera, but I wanted to see just how big that difference really is. So last night, under clear skies, I took two photos.

Gene-edited pancreatic cells transplanted into a patient with type 1 diabetes
