Galaxy Z Fold7 rumored to be even thinner than expected, Z Flip7 to have a larger battery

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Fold7 will be unveiled in early July. Leaks are helping us build up a picture of the new foldables, though certain details keep changing. Here is the latest report from TechManiacs. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 will be significantly thinner than its 2024 predecessor. How much thinner? Previous info suggests 4.5mm unfolded and 9.5mm folded. This latest report claims it will be even thinner – only 8.2mm folded!

Turn your MacBook trackpad into a drawing tablet with the SonarPen stylus

Last year, the SonarPen 2 launched as the most affordable iPad stylus that supports pressure sensitivity. Now the company is back with an interesting new twist – the SonarPen Driver turns your MacBook’s trackpad into a drawing tablet. Trackpads on Apple laptops are quite large these days, making this a viable idea. It’s not as comfortable as a traditional drawing tablet, but it’s cheaper and more portable – the SonarPen for USB-C costs $43 and you can tuck it into your MacBook bag. The stylus works with a new driver for macOS 11 or later. Previously, it supported iPads, Androids,...

iPhone 17 Air's insane thinness shown again as its RAM amount leaks

A couple of days ago a video showed us a mold of the upcoming iPhone 17 Air, showcasing how insanely thin it is with its 5.65mm silhouette. Today three new images have been leaked showing all four members of the iPhone 17 family on top of each other, and it's very, very obvious which one is the Air. There's barely any room for the buttons on the sides and the USB-C port at the bottom, that's how thin it is. Of course, rumor has it this will come at the expense of battery capacity, unsurprisingly, and it will also only have one rear camera. iPhone 17 family dummy units...

Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip FE might not be called that after all

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip FE (sometimes referred to as the Z Flip7 FE) has been rumored for months as a cheaper flip-style foldable that may be launching alongside the Galaxy Z Flip7 in early July. The name was never in doubt (confusion regarding the presence of the number 7 aside), until now. Today a new report says the more affordable Samsung flip-style foldable could end up being called Galaxy Z Flip Xe, for whatever reason. Of course nothing's confirmed yet, so do only take this as a rumor and nothing more at this point. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 We do however have to wonder, if...
