Fairphone 6 leaks ahead of launch
The device appears to have a flat frame instead of the rounded one on its predecessor and a bright yellow button on the right-hand side. It remains to be seen if this is the volume slider or an entirely different key. The bezels surrounding the screen appear slimmer too and we can see the device will once again sport a punch-hole cutout for the selfie cam.

Although we don't get a proper look at the back of the upcoming device, the new report suggests Fairphone 6 will feature an updated modular back design consisting of an 'upper' and 'lower' part with contrasting colors.
The new device is expected to feature a plastic frame and back and a series of new interchangeable accessories that attach to its back. These include a card holder, a lanyard, and a ring for easier one-handed use.
Fairphone 6 is expected to feature main (wide) and secondary (ultrawide) cameras. In usual Fairphone fashion, most of the key components like the display, camera sensors, speakers, microphones, and charging port will be user-replaceable.
Fairphone 6 will be available with 8 GB RAM and 256 GB storage and is said to retail for €549.

More details emerge about the iQOO 15
Vlad, 12 July 2025 Back in May we heard that the iQOO 15 would have a 6.85-inch QHD+ Samsung-made flat LIPO OLED screen, and today the same prolific leaker going by Digital Chat Station on Weibo is back with more details. The phone will have a 50 MP periscope telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom, something the iQOO 12 had but the iQOO 13 gave up on, sadly (it only had a non-periscope 2x optical zoom telephoto). iQOO 13 The iQOO 15 also has an in-display ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, vivo's self-developed independent display chip, as well as support for 100W wired charging. iQOO is apparently still deciding whether to include wireless charging as well, but it does seem to be leaning towards adding this feature according to DCS. Alongside the periscope, it was one of the few things missing from the iQOO 13 if one wanted to declare it a true all-out flagship device. Of course, the iQOO 15 is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's upcoming Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 SoC, due to be made official in September. vivo iQOO 12 256GB 12GB RAM ₹ 42,999 ₹ 42,999 512GB 16GB RAM ₹ 44,998 vivo iQOO 13 256GB 12GB RAM ₹ 54,998 ₹ 54,998 512GB 16GB RAM ₹ 59,998 Source (in Chinese)
