The Samsung Galaxy S25 FE simply can't stop leaking. After a retailer listing from Europe yesterday, today we're treated to its purported pricing in the US.

The device is shown in four color options: Jet Black, Navy, Ice Blue, and Titanium. The prices are in line with what the Galaxy S24 FE went for when it launched, so...

Yesterday a rumor (in Chinese) claimed the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max would get reverse wireless charging support, in a first for any Apple smartphone ever. Don't take out the champagne just yet, though. Google just launched the Pixel 10 family with Qi2 wireless charging with built-in magnets - this is essentially the same tech that Apple uses under the MagSafe brand, since Apple practically open-sourced it a few years back in a bid to get it to be the industry standard, which it now is. So, it's the same thing but under a different name, and yet Google had to leave out...

Ever since the Galaxy S22 Ultra, Samsung's Ultra phones have had the same design for their cameras on the back - individual circle-islands for each sensor. This, however, may change next year. According to a new report from Samsung's home of Korea, the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra may adopt a monolithic camera island once more, last seen on the Galaxy S21 Ultra from 2021. Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra The reason for this change is all about being able to fit better cameras into the body of the phone, apparently. And yet, we can't help but wonder whether the Korean company is once again...

Qualcomm’s flagship SoC was seen powering the RedMagic 11 Pro (nubia NX809J), revealing another look at the raw power housed inside the chip. It features an eight-core CPU with 2x prime cores clocked at 4.19GHz and 6x performance cores running at 3.63GHz.
