At a starting price of $1,999 / £1,899 / AU$2,899, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is the most expensive mainstream smartphone on the market – but I think that high price could bring some positive changes.

The latest rumors point to a new 8x optical zoom camera for the iPhone 17 Pro, and while I’m excited to see what Apple can do on a technical level, I’m not sure that going all-in on long-range zoom is the way to go.

A new thinner design, faster charging, and One UI 8.5 could make the Galaxy S26 Ultra a bigger upgrade than we were expecting.

By the time One UI 7 launched, I was annoyed with Samsung’s delayed software rollout – but with One UI 8 launching with the next generation of Samsung foldables, I’m hopeful that the tech giant can put things right.
