    Samsung will officially present its new range of premium Android devices by this time tomorrow. The next Galaxy Unpacked event is set to begin at 14:00 UTC in Brooklyn, New York. However, recent leaks have revealed a lot about the devices expected to be available for purchase by the end of this week.

    Major Leaks

    The most notable information comes from Roland Quandt, who has shared significant details about the Galaxy Z Fold7, Galaxy Z Flip7, and Galaxy Z Flip7 FE. According to Quandt, he has sourced all of the images from public platforms rather than through channels bound by Samsung’s non-disclosure agreements for the upcoming foldable devices. As anticipated, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is lighter and thinner than the previous model, featuring larger screens and a new 200 MP main camera, although it may lack the anticipated S Pen support.

    Comparison with Previous Models

    Interestingly, Samsung chose to compare the new book-style foldable with the older Galaxy Z Fold5 instead of the more recent Galaxy Z Fold6. While this is a common strategy for Samsung, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is set to be the lightest in its category, measuring just 0.1 mm thicker than the Oppo Find N5 when folded. This means the Galaxy Z Fold7 will surpass the Honor Magic V5 and Vivo X Fold5 in terms of weight and thickness.

    Positioning of the Flip Models

    In a similar vein, Samsung’s marketing materials seem to ignore the existence of the Galaxy Z Flip6. Instead, the Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 FE are compared against the Galaxy Z Flip5, and even the Galaxy A56 in the case of the Z Flip7 FE. Ultimately, only the Galaxy Z Flip7 shows a real evolution in the series with its new 4.1-inch cover display and a case thickness of 14.2 mm. Currently, the Galaxy Z Flip7 is likely to compete effectively with the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra (currently priced at $1,299.99 on Amazon), but the Razr might have the advantage in terms of battery life and possibly performance as well.

    Performance of the Flip7 FE

    On another note, there seems to be little to differentiate the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE from the Galaxy Z Flip5, and even less when compared to the outgoing Galaxy Z Flip6. In fact, in many cases, the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE may actually perform worse than the Galaxy Z Flip5. For further information, please refer to the images provided below.

  • Galaxy Buds 3 Pro Leak Reveals Real-Life Images

    Galaxy Buds 3 Pro Leak Reveals Real-Life Images

    Samsung is gearing up to introduce its new Galaxy Buds 3 series TWS earphones at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event next week. Although the official launch is still days away, real-life images of the Galaxy Buds 3 Pro have surfaced, courtesy of X tipster Roland Quandt. Check out the design from the images below.

    Galaxy Buds 3 Pro Features a Longer Stem

    The new earphones from Samsung have abandoned their traditional bean-shaped design in favor of a model with a longer stem. This stem is notably longer than that of the AirPods Pro 2.

    Design and Speculation

    A Korean source speculates that this design shift is driven by the need for increased internal volume, which allows for a larger battery and additional components. Previous reports suggest that the Galaxy Buds 3 series will incorporate some of the capabilities of Galaxy AI. The inclusion of new features could be a factor behind the design change, potentially enabling Samsung to include more or more advanced components inside the earbuds.

    Last month, an image of the base Galaxy Buds 3 along with its charging case was leaked. These buds also feature a stem-like design, though the stem is slightly shorter than that of the Pro model. The standard version was displayed in silver, showing a distinctly angular design for the stem. For the Pro model, only portions of the design are visible, and a closer look suggests that the stem is not rounded either.

    Nonetheless, these leaked images might represent one of the designs Samsung experimented with. Therefore, the final design revealed next week may differ from what we see in these leaks.


  • Galaxy Z Fold 6 US Prices Revealed for All Storage Variants

    Galaxy Z Fold 6 US Prices Revealed for All Storage Variants

    Samsung is expected to unveil its 6th generation Galaxy foldable, the highly anticipated Galaxy Ring, and a revamped Galaxy Buds 3 series at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10 this year.

    Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Fold 6

    Several details about the forthcoming foldables have surfaced, thanks to numerous leaks and rumors. The latest information, according to Smartprix, pertains to the US pricing and variants of the Galaxy Z Fold 6.

    The next book-style foldable from Samsung will reportedly be slightly more expensive than the Galaxy Z Fold 5. The report indicates that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will come in three different storage options – 256GB, 512GB, and 1TB. Though the report doesn’t specify the memory size, the phone has appeared on GeekBench with 10.84GB memory, suggesting it will ship with 12GB RAM.

    Galaxy Z Fold 6 US Pricing

    The US prices for the 128GB, 256GB, and 512GB storage variants are $1900, $2020, and $2260 respectively. It’s worth noting that prices may vary slightly in different regions.

    A prior rumor suggests that the phone will be available in three colors – Navy, Silver Shadow, and Pink.

    The phone weighs 239g, which is notably lighter than the 253g Galaxy Z Fold 5. However, it remains heavier than many competitors. For example, the Honor Magic V2, released before the Galaxy Z Fold 5, weighs 231g, and the recently launched vivo X Fold 3 weighs only 219g, making it lighter than some mainstream flagship phones.

    Returning to the Galaxy Z Fold 6, it will feature a 7.6-inch inner display, the same as its predecessor. However, the Z Fold 6 is relatively wider, as evidenced by real-life images.
