OnePlus Ace 5 Supreme Edition shapes up to be another powerful flagship killer
OnePlus seems to be the brand of the month, as the Chinese company has a bunch of new smartphones in the pipeline. Besides a couple of Nord series phones that are likely to arrive in May and/or June, OnePlus will also launch at least one new flagship, the Ace 5 Supreme Edition / Ace 5 Ultra.The Ace 5 Ultra is supposed to be another flagship killer following in the footsteps of Ace 5 and Ace 5 Pro, two other flagships that OnePlus released in China late last year.Although it's not going to be the most powerful flagship released by OnePlus to date, the Ace 5 Ultra is definitely going to be cheaper than the OnePlus 10 Pro, the company top tier phone that uses Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite processor.
Performance-wise, the Ace 5 Ultra sits somewhere between the Ace 5 and Ace 5 Pro. The former is equipped with Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, while the latter uses a new, more powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite processor.

That's because the Ace 5 Ultra was recently spotted on Geekbench's website running on MediaTek's Dimensity 9400+ chipset. While this is slightly more powerful than the standard Dimensity 9400, it still lags a little bit behind Qualcomm's flagship Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset.
That said, it's also worth mentioning that in comparison with the Dimensity 9400 that features a Prime core clocked at 3.63 GHz, the Dimensity 9400+ on the Ace 5 Ultra comes with a Prime core running at 3.73 GHz, so the improvements are probably negligible for the end user.
The Ace 5 Ultra packs 16 GB RAM, but additional storage options might be available at launch. Naturally, the phone runs Android 15 , but that's about everything we know about the Ace 5 Ultra so far. It's important to mention that the Ace 5 Ultra / Ace 5 Supreme Edition will be launched in China sometime this month. Unfortunately, the Ace 5 Ultra will remain exclusive to China, so there's no chance you'll be getting this unless you really want a phone specifically designed for the Chinese market.

On this date 18 years ago, the world was changed forever
Today is June 29th which probably means nothing to you. But if you are a long-time smartphone fanatic, this date is very important. On June 29th, 2007, Apple released the first-generation iPhone. The device was introduced on January 9th, 2007 by the late Steve Jobs but Apple needed the time to manufacture enough units. After all, ever since Jobs unveiled the device back in January, everyone was talking about the iPhone. If you weren't around back then, you probably can't grasp how exciting the iPhone was. With the touch screen and multi-touch, it was clear that Apple had a device that was going to change the world. Back in 2007, the process of buying an iPhone was a lot cruder than it is now. Starting a few days before the June 29th release, people started to wait in line overnight in front of Apple Stores. 18 years ago today, consumers could choose between the iPhone with 4GB of storage ($499) and 8GB ($599). In the States, both models required a two-year contract with AT&T. I bought a 4GB model not too long after it was released and I can clearly remember how slow AT&T 's EDGE network was. You see, the OG iPhone did not support 3G which means that the phone was connected to AT&T 's 2.5G EDGE network. When not in Wi-Fi range, the YouTube app was blurry and looked awful. You could not use the browser and receive a phone call at the same time. If you had Safari open, incoming calls would go right to visual voicemail. Two months after the release date, Apple discontinued the 4GB variant and in February 2008 a 16GB model was released. Those who kept a 4GB model in the original box and never opened it are sitting on a goldmine. In July 2023, an unopened 4GB iPhone was sold for a record amount of $190,372.80. The iPhone 3G, which brought 3G connectivity to the device, was introduced on June 9th, 2008 and was released on July 11th. Apple cut the price significantly charging $199 for the 8GB model and $299 for the 16GB variant which was available in black and white. Of course, a two-year AT&T contract was still required in the U.S. The iPhone pretty much had the high-end of the touch screen smartphone market to itself for a couple of years despite several phones that were called iPhone killers. In hindsight, the first legit iPhone killer was the Motorola DROID, a Verizon exclusive and the first phone to run Android 2.0 Eclair. The DROID was released in November 2009. While many celebrate January 9th as the anniversary of the OG iPhone, that is only half the story. It's hard to believe but 18 years ago today was really the day that the world changed.

Samsung listened to you: Galaxy Z Fold 7 is ditching the 'ugly' cameras
Remember the thick ring camera design on the Galaxy S25 Ultra? It became the talk of the digital town when users discovered that the decorative rings could just pop off. The company listened to those complaints, and changed how the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will look before it entered production. According to a renowned Samsung tipster, the Fold 7 originally featured the same ring design on its main cameras. Samsung 'urgently' reversed course and chose a design similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 after users complained about how cheap the rings felt. Recent leaked Fold 7 renders also reflect this change in design, where the main camera array features a much sleeker look without the rings. If you didn't like how the rings looked, then that's two upgrades to the cameras for you. A massive Fold 7 leak has just confirmed that the phone will come with a 200 MP main camera, instead of its predecessor's 50 MP sensor. The new Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge also followed this redesign, and doesn't feature the rings on its cameras. Furthermore, the backlash was intense enough that Samsung is expected to remove the rings from the Galaxy S26 series next year as well. Leaked Fold 7 render shows no rings on the rear cameras. | Image credit — Evan Blass You love to see it, don't you? A company actually listening to negative feedback and implementing changes accordingly. Now, if only Samsung would listen to us about its batteries: the expected 4,400 mAh capacity on the Fold 7 , alongside 25W of wired charging, does not inspire confidence. Of course, if the Fold 7 isn't your cup of tea, you've got other excellent options like the Oppo Find N5 and the Honor Magic V5. The N5 was the slimmest foldable in the world until the V5 dethroned it. However, if you can't live without One UI, then the Fold 7 is still your best bet. If you're concerned about long-term software support, Honor is providing the same seven years of updates as Samsung. Or, of course, you could wait a year and see if Apple finally delivers its foldable iPhone alongside the iPhone 18 lineup. Though, if leaked foldable iPhone screen specs are anything to go by, then the Fold 7 may already have it beat. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic leaks again and this time we got real world images
Leaked CAD renders of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. | Image Credit — Evan Blass The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic has leaked once again, and this time, we are looking at a real-life image of the device. The photo was shared on Weibo by leaker Setsuna Digital, also known as Instant Digital, and gives us a clearer look at what may be Samsung's next smartwatch, just days before its expected launch. Leaks surrounding the Galaxy Watch 8 series have been increasing recently. In addition to CAD-based renders for the entire Watch 8 series, the Classic model previously appeared in an eBay listing, hinting that testing or retail units may already be in circulation. This new photo adds another layer to the growing pile of evidence. Leaked photos of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Classic. | Images credit — Setsuna Digital via Weibo The image shows a metal watch body paired with a black leather band. The watch includes two side buttons and what looks like a physical rotating bezel. One notable difference from Samsung's previous Classic watch offerings is the "squircle" shape that debuted with the Galaxy Watch Ultra and that has undoubtedly become synonymous with it. This new design appears to be the direction that Samsung now wants to take with all of its watches. Additionally, compared to older designs, the bezel appears slightly thinner, and the screen may be larger, although Samsung has not confirmed any of these details. We have also seen reports that the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic could feature a brighter display and better durability. Samsung has not officially announced the Galaxy Watch 8 series yet, but the company is expected to reveal it alongside its next wave of foldable devices during its Unpacked event on July 9th. The event is expected to focus on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7, and other updated wearables. With multiple leaks now backing up the same design, it seems increasingly likely that the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is on the way with this updated look. Whether it can attract attention over the popular Ultra model remains to be seen, but the return of the rotating bezel and its new brand identity could help it stand out in Samsung's expanding watch lineup.
