The Galaxy Z Fold 7's price could jump from $2,000 to $3,500 like that
Image by PhoneArena If you're the kind of person who often drops things on the floor – and if the floor beneath you is a rough, concrete one – well, you might be in trouble.
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 screen replacement prices have been revealed, and it's not pretty. We all know that foldable display panels are costly, but if you're eyeing Samsung's latest foldable monster, it's worth understanding the potential replacement costs… should the screen ever need repair. Let's hope it doesn't come to this, though.Replacement components for these devices come with high price tags, and paying out of pocket can feel impractical, especially given how quickly smartphones lose value over time. Yes, even foldables tend to do that!
According to a parts supplier in the EU that provides genuine Samsung components, a replacement foldable panel for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is priced at €761 (about $890 when directly converted), while the smaller cover display costs €525 (about $611 when directly converted).
So, if you somehow manage to crack both your inner and outer displays – and I'm sure that many among us will have no problem achieving this – it would cost you another $1,501 on top of the hefty $2,000 price tag. That equates to $3,500: the moral of the story is to be very, very careful with your foldable. With you non-foldable phone as well, since we're at it.
For the Galaxy Z Flip 7, the foldable panel is listed at €342 (~$400 when directly converted), and the Flex Window cover display is €207 (~$240 when directly converted). These figures do not include labor costs if the repair is carried out by a third-party service provider. Samsung's standard warranty does not cover screen replacements, as accidental damage is excluded. This is why many customers opt for Samsung Care+, an optional protection plan that offers coverage for accidental damage. For the Galaxy Z Fold 7 , Samsung Care+ costs $13 per month or $259 per year and includes unlimited same-day repairs for cracked screens or back glass at $29 per service. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is covered at $10 per month or $169 per year.
You do the math.

And just like that, the most unnecessary Galaxy S26 model has become my most anticipated 2026 phone
As it turns out, I may have been perfectly justified to doubt the , but at the same time, I'm starting to get what Galaxy S26 Edge might be an entirely different story. As it turns out, I may have been perfectly justified to doubt the S25 Edge's chances to achieve global box-office hit status , but at the same time, I'm starting to get what Samsung is doing here. No, I'm not saying I would ever consider buying a 6.7-inch smartphone with a gorgeous (and power-hungry) LTPO AMOLED 2X screen and an underwhelming (to say the least) 3,900mAh battery in tow, but next year'sEdge might be an entirely different story. Forget the S26 Ultra, this could be the real MVP of Samsung's 2026 high-end roster Am I getting a little too excited after just one (fairly vague) rumor ? Perhaps, but darn it, I need some hope in my life after so many disappointingly repetitive Galaxy S Ultra flagships, not to mention the latest speculation calling for an unchanged 5,000mAh battery and only slightly upgraded charging speeds on the S26 Ultra Confirmed: The Galaxy S26 Edge will be thinner than the S25 Edge and have a larger battery thanks to new battery material technology. — PhoneArt (@UniverseIce) July 23, 2025 need to believe that the S26 Edge will considerably improve the modest cell size of its predecessor while further slimming down that already drool-worthy 5.8mm waist. Technically, of course, the wording of @UniverseIce's X post from yesterday leaves the door open for slight upgrades to, say, 4,000mAh battery capacity and a 5.7mm profile, but if you'll allow me, I will continue to dream with my eyes open of a premium Realistic or not, Ito believe that theEdge will considerably improve the modest cell size of its predecessor while further slimming down that already drool-worthy 5.8mm waist. Technically, of course, the wording of @UniverseIce's X post from yesterday leaves the door open for slight upgrades to, say, 4,000mAh battery capacity and a 5.7mm profile, but if you'll allow me, I will continue to dream with my eyes open of a premium Samsung phone with at least a 4,500mAh juicer and 5.5mm or so thickness. Galaxy S26 Edge couldn't bring that latter number down to 5.5 or 5.6mm and the former to... 5,000mAh (or even more) when the display size is expected to sit at 6.66 inches. Is such a thing even possible in today's mobile industry? I strongly believe so, and the evidence comes from China (where else?). If the OnePlus 13T can pair a 6,260mAh silicon-carbon battery with a 6.32-inch screen while measuring 8.2mm in depth, I don't see why theEdge couldn't bring that latter number down to 5.5 or 5.6mm and the former to... 5,000mAh (or even more) when the display size is expected to sit at 6.66 inches. Are you as excited as I am about the Galaxy S26 Edge? Pretty much I'm even more excited Not even close I'm waiting to hear more before forming an opinion Pretty much 0% I'm even more excited 0% Not even close 0% I'm waiting to hear more before forming an opinion 0% Granted, there are still some risks and downsides associated with switching from traditional lithium-ion to silicon-carbon battery technology (which is a type of lithium-ion material too, mind you), but I feel like the Galaxy S Edge line could be the ideal home for such risks and experiments. Should there still be a Galaxy S26 Plus model? That, my friends, might be the million-dollar question Samsung needs to answer over the next few months and that I'm personally ambivalent about right now. On one hand, we all know Galaxy S Plus devices have never been particularly popular for fairly obvious reasons, costing too much to replace their Ultra siblings for more cash-strapped buyers and cutting too many corners (especially compared to said Ultra models) to bid for the title of best Android phone Galaxy S26 Plus would probably free the S26 Edge from some of the pressure inevitably linked with the aforementioned risks of adopting groundbreaking new battery technology and potentially making the S25 Edge On the other hand, aPlus would probably free theEdge from some of the pressure inevitably linked with the aforementioned risks of adopting groundbreaking new battery technology and potentially making the's design even more susceptible to both short and long-term destruction. Galaxy S26 Edge between the "vanilla" and the state-of-the-art S26 Ultra , thus essentially replacing two different devices with one Edge model, that's going to make me even more excited about this next super-slim flagship, suggesting great faith from its manufacturer in its box-office potential. Of course, if Samsung does decide to only slot theEdge between the "vanilla" Galaxy S26 and the state-of-the-art, thus essentially replacing two different devices with one Edge model, that's going to make me even more excited about this next super-slim flagship, suggesting great faith from its manufacturer in its box-office potential. Now, I'm obviously not saying that the S26 Edge will outsell the S26 Ultra (or the compact Galaxy S26 ), but after a confusing fourth member of the S25 family that doesn't seem to be going anywhere in terms of global popularity, it could well mark the beginning of a beautiful, highly successful, risk-taking, and trend-setting handset (sub) family. To say that I've never been a big fan of the Galaxy S25 Edge would probably be the understatement of the year. After all, I went on record not only once but twice ahead of the official announcement of the ultra-thin Android powerhouse to voice not just my skepticism that the phone could ever become a commercial success, but my complete inability to understand... the existence of this device.

Galaxy Tab S11, S11 Ultra, and S10 Lite get certified in Korea, live images ensue
Samsung is going to be launching three new tablets in the coming months, and all three of them have now been certified by Safety Korea, an obviously necessary step on their path to becoming official. The certification process has revealed one live image for each tablet, showing the front, but as usual with certification photos, these aren't the highest quality by any stretch of the imagination. The Galaxy Tab S11 has similar dimensions to the Tab S9 and Tab S10 FE, and comes with its selfie camera embedded in the screen bezel. Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 The Tab S11 Ultra, on the other hand, has much slimmer bezels all-round, and comes with an interesting design change vs. its predecessor - a much smaller, U-shaped notch for the selfie camera. That, however, comes at the cost of one camera - whereas the Tab S10 Ultra has two, its successor will have to make do with one. Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra Finally, the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite has a very similar overall design language to the S11, but should be lower-end, as the name implies, with a much cheaper price to match. Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 Lite Past rumors told us to expect these three to become official around September or October, so there's still plenty of time left for them to leak some more. Stay tuned for that. Via 1 | Via 2

Google Pixel Watch 4 will reportedly debut a new side-mounted charging system
A new round of leaks suggests that Google is taking a different approach to charging with the Pixel Watch 4. According to a new report, the upcoming smartwatch will include a redesigned, side-mounted charging system that sets it apart from earlier Pixel Watch models. In this new system, Google has reportedly shifted the charging contacts from the back of the device to the left side, which is the opposite side of the digital crown. Renders show an indentation with two charging pins, and unlike past Pixel Watches, there will be no charging contacts on the back of the device. That space is now occupied by a new array of health sensors, similar to the ones found on the Pixel Watch 3. The design change could offer a more practical benefit. Since the watch will now rest on its side while charging, users will be able to check battery levels more easily when the watch is placed on a desk or nightstand. Reports also suggest that this new charging system may contribute to the Pixel Watch 4 's 25 percent faster charging speeds compared to the previous generation. Beyond convenience, the new side-mounted contacts may play a role in improving repairability. The Pixel Watch 4 is expected to be the first in the lineup to allow repairs, with technicians able to remove the back panel to access internal components. By removing the charging system from the rear casing, Google likely made that process easier to achieve. This new charging dock will reportedly be included in the box, although, consistent with past Pixel Watches, it will not come with a USB-C power adapter. Any standard 5W USB-C adapter will be compatible with the dock. Google is also expected to sell the dock separately on the Google Store, but pricing details have yet to be confirmed. Based on previous models, a starting price of $29.99 seems proprietary chargers often limit user convenience, I do appreciate the idea of a side-mounted dock. In the future, it would be great to see Google offer a dual-purpose charging cable, similar to OnePlus's SuperVOOC system, that can charge both the watch and a phone at once. The Google Pixel Watch 4 is expected to officially launch next month at the Made by Google event, which is taking place on August 20th.
