Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra arrives with Privacy Display, SD 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy

The yearly Galaxy S-series update is here and the S26 Ultra gets the latest Qualcomm flagship chip, a new privacy display that keeps peeping eyes off your screen and the fastest charging on a Galaxy to date. It’s a tad thinner (7.2mm) and lighter (214 grams) than its predecessor while still boasting a titanium frame and Gorilla Glass Victus 2 back combo. There’s not much visual change upfront - see it on video here. You get a 6.9-inch LTPO AMOLED display with QHD+ resolution and a 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate.

Samsung tipped to be working on a bigger 200MP sensor

Samsung is now rumored to be developing a new 200MP 1/1.3-inch type camera sensor, that will be called ISOCELL HPC. That would be an increase in size from the HPB developed for vivo's X300 and X300 Pro, which is 1/1.4-inch type. The new sensor is high-end, and is expected to be used by Oppo in a future smartphone, most likely one in the Find X10 family. It features UFCC aka Ultra Fine Color Filter, which was developed by Samsung to reduce thickness while improving light transmission and color purity. It should also have ultra-high dynamic range.

Google is improving earthquake alerts on Wear OS watches

Google is now sending earthquake alerts to Wear OS devices even when they're not connected to a smartphone, according to the release notes for the latest version of Google Play Services. Google first brought Android's Earthquake Alerts System to Wear OS last year, but so far it was just basically mirroring the alert you received on your phone. From now on, even if your phone is too far to remain connected to your watch, the latter will still notify you about earthquakes. Of course, it will probably need a standalone internet connection to do so - thus, this most likely only applies...

Oppo Find N6's special box contents exposed

Oppo is launching the Find N6 very soon, and ahead of that, today in China the purported contents of the Find N6 'gift box' (machine translated from Chinese) got outed. We assume not every Find N6 box will be outfitted with all this stuff, perhaps only those who pre-order will get the contents shown here, or this could be some special edition. Anyway, the box contents are impressive. You get the phone of course, a magnetic stand and charger, an aramid fiber case, a magnetic card holder, and a 20W power bank. The Find N6 is going to be powered by the 7-core Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5...
