Oppo Pad SE is a medium-sized tablet when it comes to display | Image credit: Oppo The specs list above is far from being impressive, but the fact that this tablet is priced below the $150 mark is what makes it really appealing. Oppo announced the Pad SE will be available for purchase in China starting May 23. 6 / 128 GB – 900 yuan ($125 / €110)
8 / 128 GB – 1,100 yuan ($150 / €135)
8 / 256 GB – 1,300 yuan ($180 / €160)
6 / 128 GB Soft Light Edition – 1,000 yuan ($140 / €125)
8 / 256 GB Soft Light Edition – 1,400 yuan ($195 / €175)
If Oppo decides to launch the Pad SE in other markets, the tablet will almost certainly be priced higher. Hopefully, the price difference won't be so high to deter customers from choosing Oppo's tablet and go for other similarly priced slates from the competition (i.e Realme Pad, Samsung Galaxy A9).

This Galaxy Watch gave Samsung an edge over Apple, and it's coming back
Galaxy Watch 8 There's nothing quite like the Galaxy Watch Classic out there Should Samsung bring back the Galaxy Watch Classic for good? Yes – it's Samsung's most iconic and stylish smartwatc Maybe – only if it gets the latest sensors and features I prefer the sporty base models like the regular Watch 8 I'm more into rugged designs like the Watch Ultra No – the rotating bezel feels outdated to me now Yes – it's Samsung's most iconic and stylish smartwatc 0% Maybe – only if it gets the latest sensors and features 0% I prefer the sporty base models like the regular Watch 8 0% I'm more into rugged designs like the Watch Ultra 0% No – the rotating bezel feels outdated to me now 0% The rumored Galaxy Watch 8 Classic gets the formula right Galaxy Watch 8 The Galaxy Watch Classic fills a real gap, and Apple doesn't have an answer The Galaxy Watch Classic is the one design that stuck, the model that gave Samsung a distinct presence. And in many ways, it's Samsung's best shot at rivaling Apple's dominance in the smartwatch to launch at the next Unpacked event on July 9 , theClassic could be the comeback moment the Galaxy Watch lineup has Galaxy Watch Classic is Samsung's most distinct watch design, built around a mechanical rotating bezel that sets it apart from nearly every other smartwatch on the market. It's tactile, intuitive, and — more importantly — it looks like a regular watch. In contrast, Apple's watches stick out like a sore thumb, and can hardly pass for anything more than a 'casual' look. Google's Pixel Watch looks a bit better and more low-key than what Apple offers, but it lacks when it comes to features and year, Samsung decided to replace the rotating bezel for a touch sensitive one with the Galaxy Watch 7 , but the experience didn't quite measure up. Even with upgrades like the new Energy Score and dual-band GPS, the Watch 7 felt a bit too plain, too safe — missing the charm that made the Classic stand Galaxy Watch Ultra, on the other hand, was a daring attempt from Samsung — one that it did in its effort to rival Apple's popular Apple Watch Ultra. This new model brought some welcome firsts to the Galaxy Watch lineup, like a titanium build, a 3,000-nit display, a large battery, and the much more powerful Exynos W1000 chip. But it felt more like an Apple copy than an original product imbued with Samsung's spirit of innovation and why the return of the Classic matters. It's a statement that Samsung remembers what made its watches recognizable and to leaked renders and reports, theClassic is coming back with all the right ingredients: a stainless steel body, a 46mm size, a large battery, and that iconic mechanical bezel. It's expected to carry the same sensor array as the standard Watch 8 — including ECG, skin temperature, and SpO2 — and it will likely ship with One UI Watch 8 atop Wear OS also means it should support all of Samsung's newest AI tools, like smarter workout suggestions, sleep coaching, and even more advanced tracking in the future. Vascular load and blood glucose monitoring are both rumored to be in the Classic isn't meant to be the fitness-first model — and that's exactly the point. The standard Watch 8, with its thinner aluminum case and lighter design, is arguably better suited for a more active lifestyle. The Classic, on the other hand, is for those who want their smartwatch to look and feel like a real watch — not just a screen that counts when I say 'real watch,' I am referring to a design rooted in dive watches and tool chronometers — all built for with a specific purpose. The rotating bezel wasn't just for show, it helped divers track time or pilots measure intervals. On the Classic, that same bezel becomes a smart and satisfying way to scroll through apps, menus, and of what makes the Apple Watch so successful is its unwavering consistency. The shape, buttons, and user experience remain largely the same year after year, making it instantly recognizable and universally understood. Samsung, on the other hand, has wavered. I'd say the Galaxy Watch lineup really doesn't know what it wants to be right the Galaxy Watch Classic is the one design that stuck, and with the Watch 8 Classic reportedly making a comeback, Samsung has the chance to re-anchor its identity around something truly its own.I'd even say that the Classic shouldn't be a side option. Samsung should make it the face of its smartwatch brand. It has the hardware, the distinct design, and the practical advantage of a rotating bezel. It also offers something neither the Ultra nor the base Watch 8 can: a premium smartwatch that looks doesn't really compete in that space. Its watches are either sleek and square, or bulky and rugged — and always unmistakably 'smart.' They stick out like a sore thumb and look out of place when paired with anything besides casual. That gives Samsung a real shot to own a smartwatch category Apple hasn't tapped into.

What's missing from Samsung's next Unpacked might say a lot about its 2026 plans
Samsung's next major launch event is just around the corner, and we're all expecting to see the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 — possibly alongside the rumored Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. But one thing that likely won't show up on stage is a new pair of flagship earbuds. According to a new report, the upcoming Galaxy Buds 4 are now expected to launch next year — not this summer, not this fall, but early 2026, right around the expected unveiling of the Galaxy S26 series. That's somewhat unusual for Samsung, as in previous years the company launched its premium earbuds like the Galaxy Buds 3 during its foldable Unpacked events mid-summer. So, what gives? The Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. | Image credit — PhoneArena The delay might indicate that Samsung is planning something more ambitious for the Buds 4. A patent filed earlier this year suggests the company is exploring Ultra Wideband (UWB) tech for earbuds — which could open the door to features like real-time spatial audio positioning, ultra-precise Find My-style tracking, or even smarter auto-switching between Galaxy the Buds 4 aren't mentioned in the patent, it's easy to imagine Samsung holding back a release to integrate something meaningful — especially as Apple and Google push their own spatial audio also the question of branding: Will Samsung stick with a standard vs. Pro tier like it did with the Buds 3 lineup, or unify everything into one new Buds 4 model? So far, no reliable leaks have clarified this. Samsung isn't leaving fans completely empty-handed in 2025. The company recently launched the Galaxy Buds Core — a basic, budget-friendly option for users who just want the essentials. But these are clearly not meant to replace the Galaxy Buds 3 or Galaxy Buds 3 Pro. Instead, it looks like Samsung is holding its true audio refresh for the next big phone cycle. And pairing the Buds 4 launch with the Galaxy S26 series makes strategic sense. That way, Samsung can bundle them, show off new AI-powered audio features tied into One UI, or simply kick off 2026 with a full ecosystem refresh. If the Buds 4 do arrive in January or February, we're hoping for improved ANC, smarter integration with Galaxy AI, better microphone quality, and more premium sound — especially after seeing what rivals like Sony and Apple have brought to the table. For now, though, it looks like audio fans will need a bit more patience. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
