Galaxy S26 Ultra: This is Samsung's new OLED display tech to beat iPhone 17 Pro Max
What Is CoE OLED Technology?
The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is rumoured to adopt a new type of OLED display known as CoE OLED, which stands for Colour-on-Emitter OLED. This technology will change the traditional display design by integrating the colour filter directly onto the light-emitting layer of the screen, according to the Android Headlines report. Typically, in standard OLED panels, the colour filters and light-emitting layers are separate, which can cause some loss of light and reduce overall display performance.

By combining these layers, CoE OLED improves how light passes through the display. This results in higher light extraction efficiency, meaning the screen can produce brighter images without using more power. For users, this could translate into a screen that remains clear and visible even under bright sunlight while helping to extend the phone's battery life.
CoE OLED Display May Redefine Screen Design
The new technology also promises to expand the colour range that the screen can display. With colour filters positioned closer to the light source, the screen can deliver more accurate and vivid colours. This means the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra could offer a more realistic and immersive viewing experience across different types of content.

Furthermore, according to the tipster Ice Universe, Samsung might also include a 'depolarizer' component in the display. This element works by reducing internal reflections within the screen, which can improve contrast and sharpness, further enhancing image clarity.

If Samsung successfully integrates CoE OLED and depolarizer technology into the Galaxy S26 Ultra, users can expect a display that offers brighter visuals, richer colours, and better battery efficiency. With the Galaxy S26 Ultra still months away, more details are expected to emerge in the coming weeks. For now, the focus remains on whether Samsung will include CoE OLED and other advanced screen technologies in its next flagship release.

Google Pixel 10 series launching on August 20, here is everything we know about it
Google has confirmed that its next big hardware showcase is just weeks away, and the Pixel 10 series is front and centre. The company has already revealed an official image of one of the new phones, giving us a glimpse of a fresh blue-grey shade, but, as always, the leaks and rumours have done most of the heavy an expanded line-up and new camera tricks to a new chipset and a splash of unexpected colour, here's everything we know so far about the Pixel 10 series ahead of its August Pixel 10 launchThe next Made by Google event will take place in New York on August 20, with the company promising 'the latest on our Pixel phones, watches, buds, and more.' The only confirmed hardware detail? At least one phone in the Pixel 10 family will stick closely to the Pixel 9 Pro's design, right down to the trademark camera bar and the built-in temperature sensor. Everything else, from specs to model names, comes courtesy of the leaks. If the reports are right, we'll be getting four phones this time: the standard Pixel 10, the 10 Pro, a bigger 10 Pro XL, and the second-generation foldable, the 10 Pro Fold. If leaked renders from Android Headlines are accurate, Google is having some fun with colours this the regular Pixel 10, the palette is bold and playful: the usual 'Obsidian' black will be joined by a deep Indigo, a frosty pale blue, and a zingy lime-green called Limoncello. The Pro models play it safer, sticking to muted tones like Porcelain, Jade, and Moonstone alongside the classic black. Credit: Android Authority Curiously, the foldable model ditches black entirely. Instead, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to launch only in 'Moonstone' and 'Jade'.Google Pixel 10: CamerasThe big twist? Even the entry-level Pixel 10 is finally getting three cameras on the back, wide, ultrawide, and a telephoto don't get too carried away. To squeeze in that telephoto without bumping up the price, Google has apparently opted for smaller, less capable main and ultrawide sensors. According to Android Authority, they'll be the same sensors used in the Pixel 9a. So, while you gain a zoom lens, you may lose a bit of low-light performance. Google Pixel 10 (Credit: X/ @evleaks) The Pro models, by comparison, stick with the bigger, better hardware from the Pixel 9 Pro, so expect a noticeable gap in image quality. The 10 Pro Fold's cameras are rumoured to be a mix: similar sensors to the base Pixel 10 for main and telephoto, but with an upgrade over the Fold's last Pixel 10: ProcessorEvery year brings a faster processor, but this year the upgrade sounds like a real Tensor G5 chip is said to be moving away from Samsung's manufacturing process and over to TSMC, using the same 3nm tech that Apple relies on for the iPhone 16 Pro's A18 Pro chip. Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold (Credit: X/ @evleaks) Combined with a revised core layout, that could mean a noticeable boost in performance and efficiency, helping Pixel phones close the gap with Apple and Qualcomm-powered Pixel 10: AI everywhereOf course, it wouldn't be a Pixel launch without some AI. Google is reportedly preparing new tools like Speak-to-Tweak, which would let you edit photos with just your voice, and Sketch-to-Image, which turns your doodles into AI-generated also a new virtual assistant on the way called Pixel Sense. Previously rumoured to be called Pixie, this on-device AI will pull data from across your Google apps to anticipate what you want, offer suggestions before you ask, and carry out tasks without sending everything to the Pixel 10 India price and launchGoogle hasn't yet revealed prices or detailed features for the upcoming Pixel 10 range, but early speculation suggests the new models may be priced in line with their predecessors. The standard Pixel 10 is expected to start at around Rs 79,999 in India, with the Pixel 10 Pro likely to come in close to Rs 99, larger Pixel 10 Pro XL could see a modest bump, potentially crossing the Rs 1,02,000 mark. Interestingly, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is rumoured to be more affordable this year, with a possible launch price of roughly Rs 1,36,500, a significant drop from last year's Rs 1,72,999 price tag.- Ends

Samsung says Apple foldable is good for the industry, teases more AI assistants beyond Gemini for Galaxy S26
As the foldable smartphone wars heat up, Samsung is bracing for the moment its biggest rival finally steps into the ring. Apple's first folding iPhone is widely rumoured to be on the horizon, but Samsung insists it isn't fazed. In a new interview with Bloomberg, Samsung's President of Mobile, Won-Joon Choi, made it clear that the Korean giant is confident in its head been doing this for many years, and we have accumulated a lot of technologies and know-how. And, having another global technology company [in] this category is good for the industry and is going to be great for the consumers,' he said, when asked how Samsung would 'keep its edge' once Apple inevitably joins the comments come as Samsung unveils the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, its most refined foldables to date, in a market where competition from Chinese brands is growing ever fiercer. On the other hand, Apple's first foldable is speculated to debut next year, 2026. While nothing is confirmed, we have reported a lot of evidence that shows Apple is working on its Galaxy Z Flip 7 with in-house Exynos processor This year's Galaxy Z Flip 7 also marks a bit of a milestone for Samsung: it's the company's first foldable to use an in-house Exynos processor. When pressed on why the company chose that chip, Choi explained that there's no brand loyalty when it comes to silicon. 'We have a rigorous process when picking a chipset,' he said. 'We look at performance, power consumption, and other reasonable aspects of the consumer requirements.'Will next year's Flip stick with an Exynos 2600? That, Choi hinted, is still undecided: Samsung will 'consider every option.'AI and it's not just GeminiAnd then, of course, there was AI. You can't have a tech interview these days without latest phones already lean on Google's Gemini AI for a range of smart features, but Choi made it very clear that the future isn't exclusive.'Gemini will not be the only AI assistant we're going to integrate with Galaxy,' he teased. 'We're going to integrate multiple AI assistants and AI agents with this framework that we've built. It could be anything, as long as these AI agents are competitive, and AI agents can provide the best user experience, we are open to any ideas. We are talking to multiple vendors. I think at the time of [Galaxy] S26 you're going to see more. In addition to Gemini, you're going to see more at the time of [Galaxy] S26.'Pressed on whether that means partnerships with companies like Perplexity or ChatGPT maker OpenAI, Choi simply smiled and said 'anyone' is on the table. Still, with a big hint that Samsung will have much more to say around the Galaxy S26 launch, it seems certain there are deals already closed out the conversation with his vision for the future of mobile: 'the smartphone as the central hub for AI.'Tariffs and trade politicsThe conversation then shifted to another storm cloud hanging over the smartphone business: trade policy. New rules could see devices not manufactured in the United States slapped with a hefty 25 per cent this, Choi was deliberately cautious, pointing out that Samsung's global reach offers a safety net. 'Samsung has multiple manufacturing facilities in key regions around the world,' he said. This gives the company 'a lot of flexibility' to move production as needed. Speaking directly to the US tariff threat, he added, 'There are a lot of uncertainties,' but Samsung has been working to ensure products bound for the American market can be assembled in 'multiple locations.'For now, Samsung may be keeping its cards closed, but with rivals circling, and Apple poised to pounce, the next year looks set to be one of the most interesting in foldables yet.- EndsMust Watch
