Over the past few months, we have been hearing mixed opinions about the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7's performance upgrade. While some rumours anticipate the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, others are hinting towards the Exynos 2500 chip. Now, according to a Korean publication, DealSite, Samsung may go all in for a proprietary mobile application processor (AP), Exynos 2500, for the Galaxy Z Flip 7 model. Therefore, the same chip will be available in all regions. Over the years, Samsung has been introducing Snapdragon chips for its foldable, but this may officially change this year.

As far as the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is concerned, the report highlighted that it will come with a 'mix of Exynos and Snapdragon' based on the region. Which may also come shocking to the buyer. In previous reports, the Exynos 2500 chip was said to have a low yield. However, Samsung has agreed to power its foldable with its in-house chip despite the challenges.

Well, it is too early to make an assumption since we have 6 more months to get a glimpse at the Galaxy S26 series. However, we can speculate that Samsung might be running a trial and testing of the Exynos 2500 chip with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7. Additionally, Samsung is also rumoured to be working Exynos 2600 chip based on a 2nm process, which will likely power the new generation Galaxy S series models. Therefore, we can say that the company is focusing on in-house chip development for its smartphone, rather than heavily relying on Qualcomm.

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
