Realme 15 Pro render leaks
Realme started teasing the 15 and 15 Pro at the end of June, and today a purported render depicting the latter has been leaked. Interestingly, it kind of looks more similar to the Realme 14 than the 14 Pro it's replacing, which had a circular camera island. Speaking of which, the 14 Pro arrived back in January and the 14 joined it in March.
So it's intriguing to see Realme already teasing their successors, after such a short time. Of course, the launch of the 15 and 15 Pro is probably still a few weeks out at least. The source of today's render says this colorway could be called Flowing Silver. Additionally, the 15 Pro is rumored to come in Velvet Green and Silk Purple.
The Realme 15 Pro will have a 50 MP main camera, and allegedly, the Pro model should be getting all of the 'premium' features so far reserved for the Pro+. Does this mean there won't be a Realme 15 Pro+? It's unclear, but we wouldn't be surprised.
As you can see from the render, the screen has very slim bezels and a centered hole-punch for the selfie camera. On the back there seems to be a semi-transparent design. Realme has already confirmed that both the 15 and the 15 Pro will be powered by Snapdragon chipsets, and will have AI Edit Genie on board, that will let you edit photos with voice commands. According to a previous leak, the Realme 15 Pro will come in four RAM/storage versions: 8/128GB, 8/256GB, 12/256GB, and 12/512GB.

The road to the Galaxy Z Flip 7: a visual history of every model to date
Fast forward to 2019–2020 and the flexible screen revolution. What if these huge displays could bend in half? The clamshell form factor suddenly became great again. This comeback was a huge surprise and offered another spin on the foldable idea. Samsung quickly took notes from Motorola and its attempt to revive the RAZR line and launched its own flip phone, called the Galaxy Z Flip. $270 off (21%) 5G, Unlocked, 512GB Storage, 8GB RAM, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Processor, 6.7-Inch Foldable Dynamic AMOLED 2X Display with 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 3.4-Inch Super AMOLED Cover Screen with 748 x 720 Pixel Resolution, 12 + 12MP Dual Rear-Facing Camera System, 10MP Front-Facing Shooter, 3,700mAh Battery with 25W Charging Support, Multiple Color Options, $150 Amazon Gift Card Included Pre-order at Amazon $320 off (15%) 5G, Unlocked, 512GB Storage, 12GB RAM, Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 Processor, 7.6-Inch Foldable Dynamic AMOLED 2X Display with 2176 x 1812 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Technology, 6.2-Inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X Cover Screen with 2316 x 904 Pixel Resolution and 120Hz Refresh Rate Support, 50 + 10 + 12MP Triple Rear-Facing Camera System, 10MP Cover Camera, 4MP Under-Display Shooter, 4,400mAh Battery with 25W Charging Capabilities, Multiple Color Options, $200 Amazon Gift Card Included Pre-order at Amazon Quick Links: February 14, 2020 | Galaxy Z Flip Review The original Galaxy Z Flip was also a fashion statement Key Features: Vertical folding design. Ultra-thin glass display. Snapdragon 855+ chipset. Hideaway hinge for multiple viewing angles. AMOLED cover display. Dual battery system. The first model in the Galaxy Z Flip series, introduced in 2020, was plagued by design and software problems, which is normal given it was a first-gen device. From screen touches not registering, to the screen ending up full of dents and scratches due to the soft layer covering the flexible panel, the Galaxy Z Flip was a bit of a nuisance to use. There were positives, too. The ultra-thin glass display addressed durability concerns coming from the original Fold, and the hideaway hinge not only added functionality but also doubled as a style statement. Even though the phone wasn't able to fold completely shut and accumulated dust and other garbage around the crease over cover display made it easier to check notifications, and the dual battery system ensured all-day usage. However, the cover screen offered little functionality. It showed the time, date, and battery level, and you could also control music and try to take a selfie looking at the tiny 1-inch screen, which acted as a the Galaxy Z Flip was an important milestone and a statement that Samsung was serious about phones with flexible 7, 2020 | Galaxy Z Flip 5G Specs Key Features and upgrades: 5G connectivity. Upgraded Snapdragon 865+ processor. Improved Flex Mode capabilities. External notifications on the cover display. Building upon the success of its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 G aimed to future-proof the foldable experience by incorporating 5G connectivity and also address some minor concerns and gripes with the cover notifications came on the cover display, providing quick and convenient access to essential information. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 G remained largely the same device as the original Flip, with one big hardware difference. It's ticking upgraded Snapdragon 865+ processor enhanced performance, making the device more powerful and efficient. Flex mode capabilities were improved, enabling users to utilize the device at various angles for tasks like video calls and selfies. While the existence of the Galaxy Z Flip 5 G was a bit controversial, after all the phone launched a couple of months after the original non-5G model, it was again clear that Samsung wants to create a separate line of devices to complement the Fold. And that's how the Galaxy Z Flip series was born. August 11, 2021 | Galaxy Z Flip 3 Review The Galaxy Z Flip 3 was probably the first mainstream foldable Key Features and upgrades: Larger cover display and new design. IPX8 water resistance. More durable Armor Aluminum frame. Enhanced multitasking with Flex Mode and multiwindow split screen. Upgraded Snapdragon 888 5G processor. The Galaxy Z Flip 3 marked a significant step forward in the evolution of foldable smartphones. The design was reimagined with a different layout for the camera system, and the external display. The larger cover display allowed users to interact with notifications, widgets, and calls more comfortably. Still, you couldn't use the cover screen to type any text or respond to messages, emails, introduction of IPX8 water resistance brought durability to new heights, making the Galaxy Z Flip 3 the first foldable device to sport such a level of water resistance. The Armor Aluminum frame increased sturdiness, while the improved Flex Mode and multiwindow split screen provided enhanced multitasking the Galaxy Z Flip 3 sold really well. Samsung shipped 4.6 million units of the Galaxy Z Flip 3, accounting for more than half of the whole foldable market. People were loving the Galaxy Z Flip. August 25, 2022 | Galaxy Z Flip 4 Review The Galaxy Z Flip 4 was all about refinement Key Features and upgrades: Further design refinements. Upgraded Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor. Better camera quality. Bigger 3,700mAh battery. With the Galaxy Z Flip 4, Samsung decided to play it extra safe, maybe due to the huge success of its predecessor. The upgrades were so incremental that people failed to recognize the phone next to the previous not to say there weren't upgrades. Samsung refined the design, opting for a matte finish and a glossy frame. The processor inside the phone was the best at the time, the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, the main camera used a bigger sensor, and there were some upgrades to the image processing algorithms, resulting in better battery was expanded to 3,700 mAh, a substantial upgrade compared to the 3,400 mAh cell in the previous model, which unsurprisingly resulted in better battery life. All in all, the Galaxy Z Flip 4 fell victim to the lack of competition at the time, but Samsung managed to keep the $999 starting price, and the device sold reasonably well. August 11, 2023 | Galaxy Z Flip 5 Review The Galaxy Z Flip 5 sported a big cover screen with improved functionality Key Features and upgrades: Larger and now usable cover screen. The phone closes with no gap. Upgraded Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor. Double the storage (256GB) in the base model. Improved image processing algorithms. Speaking of lack of competition, the competitors came, and they hit hard. Models such as the Oppo Find N2 Flip and the Motorola Razr Plus debuted with features and designs the Flip series couldn't offer. It was time for Samsung to react. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 addressed one of the biggest drawbacks and complaints about the Galaxy Z Flip series over the years. The limited functionality of the cover screen. The new and bigger 3,4-inch external screen now supported third-party apps, such as YouTube, Google Maps, and Netflix, and you could type text without the need to unfold the was one of the most requested upgrades and could potentially be a game changer for the Galaxy Z Flip. Even though everything else about the phone remained largely the same as the previous model (barring the new processor and the gapless hinge), the cover screen and the ability to use the phone folded made all the difference. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 is still rather new, and we expect the usability of the cover screen to further improve with support for even more third-party apps, keeping the device head and shoulders above the competition once again. July 10, 2024 | Galaxy Z Flip 6 Review It's all about refinements with the Galaxy Z Flip 6 Key Features and upgrades: New 50 MP main camera. Brighter main display (2600 nits peak). More natural colors on photos. Improved design with less pronounced crease. IP48 dust and water resistant. Upgraded Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is more about refinement than anything else. It continues in the footsteps of the previous generation adding some upgrades here and there. There's a brand new 50MP main camera up from the 12MP on the previous model. The main display is now much brighter, capable of shining with up to 2600 nits under direct sunlight. The crease is now less pronounced (albeit still visible), and the overall design feels sturdier. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 also upgrades the protection from the elements with an IP48 dust and water resistance rating. Finally, this flip flagship comes with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor on board, a real powerhouse, and also optimized for the latest AI features (at the time). You can get the phone with up to 512GB of storage and in some really vibrant colors, such as Yellow, Mint, and Peach. July 9, 2025 | Galaxy Z Flip 7 Hands-on The Galaxy Z Flip 7 stretched the cover screen from edge to edge Key Features and upgrades: Larger cover screen that stretches from edge to edge. Wider 6.9-inch main display. Almost no crease. Brand-new Samsung Exynos 2500 chipset. Bigger 4300 mAh battery. Improved image processing algorithms. It took Samsung some time to catch up with Motorola when it comes to flip phones and cover screens specifically. But here we are—the Galaxy Z Flip 7 features a large 4.1-inch cover screen that stretches side to side. It also has a 120 Hz refresh rate and 2600 nits of peak brightness, so you can use the phone without unfolding it every single time. The dimensions of the Z Flip 7 have grown a tad to accommodate the bigger main and cover screens, but not by much. The phone is just 1 gram heavier than its predecessor and a couple of millimetres wider. Samsung also decided to use the Galaxy Z Flip 7 as a testbed for its latest 3 nm chipset—the Exynos 2500. We have to test this silicon ourselves to issue a verdict, but it should still be an improvement over the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in the previous model. Whether or not it could challenge the Snapdragon 8 Elite, benchmarks will tell. One big improvement is the battery capacity. It has increased substantially from 4000 mAh to 4300 mAh, which is a welcome upgrade. Sadly, wired and wireless charging support is the same as last generation. But just like the previous model, small steps go a long way, and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a very stylish, capable, and refined flip phone that can now go up against the flip competition. Final Thoughts The evolution of the Galaxy Z Flip series showcases Samsung's dedication to innovation and pushing the boundaries of smartphone technology. The clamshell design is here to stay, as it turns out, and Samsung made sure it has a competitive advantage with the Galaxy Z Flip lineup.

The Z Fold makes the ultimate sacrifice in order to survive

Will you miss the S Pen? Samsung asked, the market responded With last year's Z Fold 5 before that, sales were allegedly, reportedly, that's-what-they-say — not satisfactory or near projections. So, Samsung had to shuffle and accept a few cold, hard truths. Ever heard of the ? It was released in October 2024 in limited markets — South Korea and China. And it can be viewed as the prototype of the Z Fold 7 that was launched yesterday. Thinner body, bigger screens… no S Pen. It Multiple times. Back then, I theorized that Samsung was gauging interest and checking if sacrificing the S Pen would be viewed as a negative. One may argue that setting up production lines takes many months, so my theory that the Z Fold 6 SE was a test run for the Z Fold 7 is bogus, since the plan was in motion long before October 2024. OK, fine. Alternative take — the Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE may have been a soft preamble, a coded message to the fans. Reading something like 'OK, guys, we heard you, look — we know how to make one of the thin ones, it's coming, hang on'. In my head canon, both theories are somewhat right. I can't be persuaded that Samsung didn't have some sort of contingency in case the Z Fold 6 SE flopped terribly. The S Pen never had a place on the Z Fold anyway Hold on, pitchforks down. I am an avid But. Why am I not using a Z Fold 6 with an S Pen? The big display is an obvious choice for the stylus, right? Huge canvas, more room for notes or drawing. But also, no place to put said stylus. You probably know that ever since S Pen support was added with the Galaxy Z Fold 3, the only way to get one to attach to the phone was by buying a dedicated S Pen case. A bulky, plastic, hard-to-pocket case with a slot for the S Pen. Samsung tried solutions, it made the entire stylus design thinner, so that the case could be somewhat thinner. Users still had issues with it. Either the heft that the case adds, or the S Pen dropping out of the case and getting misplaced. And we are back to the start of the article — it felt like a compromise. And compromises is not what you want to be paying $1,800 (plus the price of the S Pen case) for. Rumors are that Samsung is working on developing alternate tech — an active S Pen that doesn't need a digitizer inside the Z Fold to work so accurately. Either the tech has been scrapped or it's simply not there yet. And, let's be honest with ourselves. There are very few S Pen users out there that actually use the stylus regularly, daily, a lot. Most of us use it once in a blue moon and 'It's nice'. It's nice to mark up your calendar. It's nice to lay your signature on a PDF without having to print and scan the document. It's nice to take notes by hand because it's so natural. But the market has shifted. People don't want a feature that's 'nice' — they want a foldable phone that's excellent. The good news is that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is giving us strong indications that it may be just that. The bad news is that it had to sacrifice the S Pen along the way. Oh, and it's $200 more expensive *runs away*. I also assume that another hidden reason was that Samsung needed the room inside the phone for the Wacom digitizers that makes the S Pen use last year's Galaxy Z Fold 6 , and even thebefore that, sales were allegedly, reportedly, that's-what-they-say — not satisfactory or near projections.

Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 7 yesterday and hooray — the rumors were true. We get a nice, thin phone that feels almost 'normal' when folded, barely thicker than a Galaxy S25 Ultra . And an external screen that you can actually dual-thumb type on due to it being good news, all things the community has been begging for. But, silently, in the background, something sinister is waiting to ruin your day. Thedoes not support an S Pen.I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly question may be 'Why?' but the answer is pretty obviousIt's been a good 6 years since the original Galaxy Fold launched. Wow, time that time, multiple other manufacturers tried their hand in the foldable space — Vivo, Oppo, Honor, OnePlus, even Google. And they began shaping the future of that particular type of smartphone. That's right, Samsung may have been first to the party, but failed to stay in the seat of foldable phones had major downsides to them. Yes, they were expensive, but that wasn't the end of it. If you wanted a, you'd have to also live with some compromises. A thick, heavy brick weighing down your pocket. An external display that's good for quick notification checks, but too tiny for prolonged use. And a downgraded camera by one, those compromises were being dealt with by the competition. All the while, Samsung was covering its ears, singing la la went on a mission to make the thinnest possible, while Vivo and Huawei were pushing to improve the cameras they can fit on those thin waffles. The community responded positively. It was clear — we want to be able to use a folded phone without the downsides. The cover screen has to be wide, and the overall build has to feel easy to handle (or hard to drop).Meanwhile, Samsung was sticking to its guns. I did have the chance to ask 'Why' the cover screen on the Galaxy Z Fold 5 was still narrow, and the response I got was that Samsung wanted a very clear difference in experience between the two screens. The external one was for one-hand use — think taking it out of your pocket to reply to a text, while holding groceries in your other hand. The internal was the big canvas for deep dives and prolonged fair enough. But let's be honest, the cover screen was so tall and the phone body so thick, that one-handed use never felt completely convenient. Especially if you had an official case with super-raised lip around that screen.

Three iPhone 17 Pro features that have me seriously considering upgrading
The iPhone 16 Pro . | Image Credit – PhoneArena I'm in for an upgrade potentially this year, and I'm eyeing Apple's upcoming iPhone 17 series, and more specifically, the iPhone 17 Pro or Pro Max. The Pro Max models are always attractive to me because of the battery, but curiously enough, I've also been considering this time going for the smaller model. The iPhone 17 Pro may have all the upgrades that the Pro Max does, but in a slightly smaller body. And a couple of features plus the smaller, lighter body are seriously tempting me right now. Same as the iPhone 17 Pro Max, rumor has it that there would be a new telephoto camera now with a 48MP resolution. I've been appreciating more and more telephoto capabilities on smartphones and I constantly see great and creative ideas for photos that I miss due to rocking an aging now iPhone 13 Pro Max (and its not-that-good telephoto camera). Plus, a 48MP resolution means the zoomed-in photos will be of higher quality, something that my poor iPhone 13 Pro Max can't really boast about. The higher quality also means I can publish them on social media and enjoy the wow-factor from capturing a distant (and very cute) squirrel. And yep, I'm obsessed with that squirrel and I really want to take a usable photo of it (it lives in the park near my house). iPhone 16 Pro Max vs iPhone 16 Pro. | Image Credit – PhoneArena The key reason why I may be switching to a Pro and not a Pro Max this year is the size and weight. The iPhone 17 Pro is expected to weigh a little bit under 200g (199g is in the rumors at the moment), while the Pro Max may come in at around 230g. Also, the size is key here: 6.3 inches vs 6.9 inches on the Pro Max. Let me tell you: I feel like I'm getting seriously tired of my iPhone not fitting in my pockets (any of them, not just those in my slim-fit jeans!) and of me having to carry a bag specifically for the phone. And I'm getting even more seriously tired of being almost forced to use my AirPods every time during a longer call as the heavy and big iPhone 13 Pro Max drags my arm into a muscle spasm... Why I went with a Pro Max model in the first place was the battery, as I hate battery anxiety more than I hated carrying a bag (at the time). However, the iPhone 17 Pro is also expected to have good battery life. Yep, the rumor for a huge battery on the Pro Max is there, alright, but the iPhone 16 Pro has acceptable battery life (16h of browsing on our tests). So, even if Apple increases the battery on the iPhone 17 Pro just a tiny bit, it may be enough. Another rumor about the iPhone 17 Pro (and the entire iPhone 17 series) is an upgraded selfie camera. I've been taking selfies with my new puppy every minute (okay, okay, that may be an overstatement) so having a good-quality selfie camera is becoming a must for me. Not that the 13 Pro Max's selfie camera is terrible, but it's 12MP, and it feels oldish. The second lighting turns a bit dimmer, that's when quality drops significantly, and my dog and I look like we've taken a selfie in 2005. So yep, an upgrade in this department would definitely be welcome and really entices me to think about the iPhone 17 Pro. Well, it seems now that I think of it, the only trade-off when I compare the Pro and the Pro Max is the giant battery life. The iPhone 17 Pro Max may keep the lights on for significantly longer than the Pro, but the fact that the iPhone 16 Pro is already pretty good in our tests indicates that I may not need a Pro Max as much as I feel like I would. The thing is, battery life is hard for me to give up, but it's not like I'm going to an iPhone 8. And quite possibly, the iPhone 17 Pro will perform better than my 13 Pro Max in this department anyway (my 13 Pro Max is, actually, almost in need of a battery replacement at the moment). Other than battery life, there's also the strange new redesign that has been in the rumors for months now. Reportedly, Apple may make the camera bump into a camera island, a huge 'thing' spanning across the top part of the phone. I may accept the design trade-off, though, as I would probably look at the design only in the beginning and then totally forget about it as I get used to the new iPhone. It seems so, at the moment. There's also going to be a new chip (A19 Pro), the new iOS 26 will balance out the design for me ( iOS 26 is gorgeous in my opinion) and the size may be my key consideration. Also, there's the fact that the iPhone 17 Pro costs less than the Pro Max, which is also good in the current economic climate... AND you don't miss out on key Pro-grade features.
