Samsung Galaxy S26 FE in for review

The Galaxy FE models have always enjoyed the attention of loyal and savvy Galaxy fans, but Samsung may be cutting it a bit too close with the Galaxy S26 FE. We called it the "Galaxy S26 AI and the Galaxy S25 FE Part 2 in our announcement news, and we still stand by that. To start with, the Galaxy S26 FE is nearly identical, spec-for-spec, with its predecessor. The major aspects of the phone are the same: the same 6.7-inch screen, triple camera system, battery and charging, and overall feel in the hand. Well, okay, the S26 FE has a camera island, whereas the older phone's camera system...

Apple hikes prices again, this time for Apple TV and Apple One

Apple hiked the prices of all of its hardware products back in June. As we're all anxiously waiting for the company to make its iPhones more expensive too, in the meantime, it has made two of its services more expensive. We're talking about Apple TV (previously known as Apple TV+) and the Apple One all-encompassing subscription, which already got more expensive last month for its family and premier plans. Today, the individual plan is getting pricier too. Apple TV is now $14.99 per month in the US, up from $12.99. The annual plan goes from $99.99 to $119.99. At the same time, the...

Motorola teases a new Swarovski-encrusted Razr, here's when it's launching

Motorola launched blinged-up Swarovski-encrusted versions of the Razr 60 and Edge 70 last year, then followed up with the Signature a few months ago, and now it's almost ready to unveil another one. The company is currently teasing a new Swarovski edition, which it will make official during IFA in Berlin in early September. The quick teaser video posted by Motorola on X shows the back of a Razr, so we're probably talking about the Razr 70, since the Razr 60 was the one to get its Swarovski edition last year. Sparkling brilliance ✨Coming soon. #IFA2026 pic.twitter.com/DDtG9YgKUv—...

Google Pixel 11 in for review

Last year was a big step for the Pixel 10, which gained a zoom camera (but downgraded the main camera), but this year, Google is keeping things simpler (and less innovative). The Google Pixel 11 is a straightforward yearly specs update. It keeps the body mostly unchanged; the screen is the same 6.3-incher, the battery is more or less the same, and so is the charging. What is new is the chipset - the 3nm Tensor G6, and the main camera, which packs a larger 1/1.56-inch main sensor (vs 1/2.0-inch on the Pixel 10), bringing it closer to the Pixel 9's 1/1.31-inch main unit. Not confusing at...

Samsung Galaxy S26 FE uses the Exynos 2500 chipset everywhere

Samsung just announced the Galaxy S26 FE, and its main upgrade compared to the Galaxy S25 FE is the newer chipset. The S26 FE comes with the Exynos 2500, which is better in every way than the Exynos 2400 that the S25 FE employed. [#InlinePriceWidget,14870,1#] The Exynos 2500 is also the only SoC that Samsung is using for the Galaxy S26 FE, there's no Exynos/Snapdragon split based on market here, or anything like that. You get an S26 FE, you get it with the Exynos 2500, no matter where you are. That's the deal. And it's a pretty good upgrade, all things considered. According to...

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra bend tests yield two very different results

Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra as the successor to the Galaxy Z Fold7 last month, alongside the new, wider Galaxy Z Fold8. That model didn't really impress in a teardown, and now it's time for the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra to get one of its own. [#InlinePriceWidget,14802,1#] It all starts with the displays. The cover screen has Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3 on top, which scratches at level 6 on the Mohs scale, with deeper grooves appearing at level 7, just like you'd expect. The inner, folding screen, however (or is that the non-removable screen protector?), will scratch at level 2 and...
