The Oppo K13 Turbo Pro is powered by the Snapdragon 8s Gen 4 processor, paired with UFS 4.0 storage and Wi-Fi 7 support for enhanced connectivity. It also includes optical image stabilisation (OIS) for the main camera, offering improved video and low-light photography. Additionally, it supports 4K time-lapse recording, which the standard Turbo model lacks. The Pro’s built-in cooling fan is paired with RGB lighting for added visual flair.

In comparison, the standard Oppo K13 Turbo uses the MediaTek Dimensity 8450 chipset with UFS 3.1 storage and Wi-Fi 6. It skips OIS and 4K time-lapse support. Instead of RGB lighting, its fan has a fluorescent ring-shaped illumination that glows in the dark.

While Obsidian (black) was also available with the Pixel 9, the other three options are brand new. Indigo is a bold Royal Blue, Frost is a soft Sky Blue and Limoncello is a unique Green-Yellow tone.

Highlights

  • Samsung’s new foldables received 210,000 pre-orders in 48 hours, rivalling Galaxy S25 figures.
  • Some Fold 7 demo units reportedly don’t open fully flat, prompting scrutiny despite Samsung’s warranty coverage and hinge specs.

Samsung’s latest foldable lineup of Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the more affordable Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE has made a strong debut in India.

According to internal figures shared by the company, the trio received 210,000 pre-orders within just 48 hours, setting a new benchmark for Samsung’s foldables. This figure nearly matches the record held earlier this year by the Galaxy S25 series.

Samsung attributes this massive demand to increasing interest among young Indian buyers for premium, feature-packed devices. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is priced at Rs 1,74,999 and is available in Blue Shadow, Silver Shadow, and Jet Black, while the Galaxy Z Flip 7, which costs Rs 1,09,999, comes in Coral Red, Jet Black, and Blue Shadow.

Both models also have an online-exclusive Mint colour on Samsung.com. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE starts at Rs 89,999 and is available in Black and White.

Pre-bookings are now open across major online platforms and offline retail stores. Launch offers include an upgrade to the 512GB variant at the price of the 256GB model and up to 24 months of no-cost EMI on all three devices.

Hinge Issues Reported on Fold 7 Demo Units

Meanwhile, we are already getting some reports about a possible hinge issue on Fold 7.

image

While the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has grabbed attention for its ultra-slim 8.9mm folded profile and reduced crease visibility, early feedback from the U.S. raises a concern. Some users on Reddit have reported that demo units in stores are not opening completely flat with a few stuck at around 170 to 165 degrees.

Although demo units often suffer wear from frequent handling, the issue has raised eyebrows due to the early stage of the product’s retail life. Samsung states that the Flex Hinge is designed to open between 178.5 and 181.5 degrees, and any unit outside this range qualifies for warranty replacement—a point several Reddit users confirmed after contacting Samsung’s customer support.

Some speculate that the issue could stem from mishandled demo units or isolated quality control flaws, rather than a widespread design defect. The Fold 7 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset and a 4,400mAh battery and at this stage, only demo units have been publicly tested, so it’s too early to draw conclusions.

Screen Repair Costs Could Be a Dealbreaker

While Samsung’s foldables offer impressive innovation, repairing their displays comes at a steep price. As per a report from SamMobile citing a European parts supplier, replacing the Z Fold 7’s inner screen costs €761 (around $890), and the smaller cover screen costs €525 (about $611).

For the Galaxy Z Flip 7, the foldable panel is priced at €342 ($400), and the 4.1-inch FlexWindow cover display is €207 ($240). These prices exclude labour fees, meaning the final bill could be even higher if handled by third-party repair shops.

Samsung’s standard warranty does not cover accidental damage, making Samsung Care+ a practical consideration. The Care+ plan for the Z Fold 7 costs $13/month or $259 annually, while the Z Flip 7 plan is $10/month or $169 per year. Both plans offer unlimited same-day screen or back glass repairs with a $29 deductible per visit.

Samsung is also expected to offer a one-time discounted inner screen replacement on eligible purchases, similar to its Galaxy Z Assurance program introduced with the Fold6 and Flip6.

With screen repair prices reaching as high as $890, opting for Samsung Care+ may be the safest bet for anyone picking up these high-end foldables. Full plan details are available on Samsung’s official website.

FAQs

Q1. How well have Samsung’s new foldables performed in India?

Answer. According to internal figures shared by the company, the trio received 210,000 pre-orders within just 48 hours, setting a new benchmark for Samsung’s foldables.

Q2. Are there any issues reported with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 hinge?

Answer. Some users on Reddit have reported that demo units in stores are not opening completely flat, with a few stuck at around 170 to 165 degrees.

Q3. How much does it cost to repair the foldable screens on Samsung’s new devices?

Answer. Replacing the Z Fold 7’s inner screen costs €761 (around $890), and the smaller cover screen costs €525 (about $611). These prices exclude labour fees.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 is scheduled to launch on August 20, 2025 and new leaks suggest buyers may not need to worry about a price increase this year. With leaked pricing now available for both size variants and connectivity options, it looks like Google is planning to keep prices in line with the Pixel Watch 3. Here’s what we know so far.

Google Pixel Watch 4 – Pricing Leaked

The latest pricing leak comes from well-known tipster billbil-kun on X (formerly Twitter) via Dealabs’ latest report. The 41mm Pixel Watch 4 with Bluetooth and Wi-Fi is expected to start at €399, while the LTE version with eSIM support could be priced at €499.

For the larger 45mm model, pricing is said to be €449 for Wi-Fi and €549 for LTE, maintaining the usual €100 difference between Wi-Fi and LTE versions.

These leaked prices are nearly identical to the Pixel Watch 3’s launch pricing –

  • $349 / €399 for the 41mm Wi-Fi model
  • $449 / €499 for the 41mm LTE model
  • $399 / €449 for the 45mm Wi-Fi model
  • $499 / €549 for the 45mm LTE model

Although official U.S. pricing has not yet been announced, the consistency in euro pricing suggests Google is unlikely to increase prices in key markets like the U.S. or the U.K.

Google Pixel Watch 4 – Expected Specs

In terms of hardware, the Pixel Watch 4 will continue using the Snapdragon W5 Gen 1 processor, but it introduces a new co-processor designed to handle AI features such as Gemini integration more efficiently. The display is reportedly upgraded to a 3,000-nit AMOLED LTPO panel, up from the 2,000 nits found in its predecessor.

Battery capacity also sees a slight bump –

  • 327mAh for the 41mm version
  • 459mAh for the 45mm version

According to Android Headlines, these changes could help the watch deliver up to two days of battery life on a single charge.

With pricing that mirrors last year’s model and a handful of key upgrades, the Pixel Watch 4 is shaping up to be a strong contender against competitors like the Samsung Galaxy Watch 8.

WhatsApp Beta Brings AI-Powered ‘Quick Recap’ for Chats and Begins Testing Ads in Status & Channels

Highlights

  • WhatsApp is testing a “Quick Recap” feature to summarise messages from up to five chats simultaneously, enhancing productivity and overview clarity.
  • Ads are being tested in WhatsApp Status and Channel sections with “Sponsored” labels and options to block advertisers.
  • Ad targeting uses minimal data and excludes personal messages, while a new “Activity Report” offers ad controls, tracking and monthly exports.

WhatsApp continues to roll out features that improve conversation flow and user experience, while also exploring new ways to generate revenue. According to recent reports, two major features are currently in development. These are a Quick Recap feature for chats and in-app advertisements in the Status and Channels sections. Here’s everything we know about both features as of now.

WhatsApp Working on a New “Quick Recap” Feature

WhatsApp has previously launched the stable version of “Message Summaries”, a feature that summarises unread messages in a single chat. Now, the platform is working on a more powerful addition called “Quick Recap”, which can summarise messages from multiple chats at once.

As reported by WABetaInfo, Quick Recap will allow users to select up to five conversations from the Chats tab, then tap the three-dot menu in the top-right corner and select “Quick Recap.”

Like Message Summaries, this new feature relies on Meta’s Private Processing technology, which ensures that neither Meta nor WhatsApp or any third party can read the messages or their summaries.

Explaining Meta’s private processing, WABetaInfo report reads, “Private Processing ensures that the raw message content never leaves the secure enclave in a readable form, and it uses encryption and isolated computation to guarantee that neither WhatsApp nor Meta has access to either the original data or the generated recap. This extra step is crucial because it allows the app to provide sophisticated AI‑driven tools while preserving the confidentiality of private conversations and maintaining end‑to‑end encryption.”

Quick Recap will be optional and disabled by default. Moreover, it will not work with chats protected by “Advanced chat privacy.”

WABetaInfo spotted the feature in WhatsApp beta version 2.25.21.12 for Android, but it’s still under development and not available even if you’re using that version. It’s expected to roll out to beta users in future updates before a wider release.

WhatsApp Beta Also Testing Ads in Status and Channels

In a separate Android beta update version 2.25.21.11, WhatsApp has started testing in-app ads for the first time. As reported by WABetaInfo again, some beta users noticed a banner in the Updates tab introducing two new ad formats, Status Ads and Promoted Channels.

Here’s how the Ads will work –

Status Ads – These will appear among regular status updates from your contacts. They are short, vertical clips labelled “Sponsored” and behave like normal status posts. You can swipe past them quickly or block the advertiser to avoid seeing more ads from that brand.

Promoted Channels – Aimed at content creators, public figures, and brands, Promoted Channels will be displayed in the channel directory, making them easier for users to discover. These also include the “Sponsored” label to distinguish them from regular channels.

Privacy and User Control

WhatsApp emphasises that ads will not be shown in private spaces such as chats, group messages, calls, or communities, all of which remain end-to-end encrypted. Ads will appear only in the Updates tab, and no personal messages, calls, or shared status updates are used for ad targeting.

To help users manage their ad experience, WhatsApp is also introducing a new tool called the “Activity Report.” This feature allows users to see a list of ads viewed recently, block or unblock advertisers, download the report in a ZIP file and set the report to auto-generate monthly.

Ad targeting on WhatsApp will use minimal data, such as:

  • General location (city or country)
  • Language settings
  • Channels followed
  • User interaction with ads

The features are available only to a limited group of beta testers. WhatsApp plans to use feedback to refine the features before rolling them out more broadly.

FAQs

Q1. What is the new ‘Quick Recap’ feature on WhatsApp?

Answer. WhatsApp is testing a new feature to let users generate a summary of specific conversations. Quick Recap will allow users to select up to five conversations from the Chats tab, then tap the three-dot menu and select “Quick Recap.”

Q2. Where will WhatsApp start showing in-app ads and how will they appear?

Answer. Ads will appear among regular status updates and in the channel directory. Status Ads are vertical clips labelled “Sponsored,” while Promoted Channels help users discover public figures and brands more easily.

Q3. How does WhatsApp ensure privacy while displaying ads?

Answer. Ads will not be shown in private spaces such as chats, group messages, calls, or communities. Ad targeting will use minimal data like general location, language, followed channels, and user interaction with ads.

According to a recent post by tipster Mukesh Sharma @stufflistings on X, the Lava Blaze Dragon will be powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 4 Gen 2 chipset and feature UFS 3.1 storage, which is uncommon in this price range.

The official press render showcases the Blaze Dragon in a beige color, while tipster Mukul Sharma has also shared hands-on images of a sleek black variant. What stands out is the rainbow-like reflection on the camera module of the black version, adding a unique and eye-catching design element.

On the front, the device features a waterdrop-style notch, which is expected for a phone in this segment. Fortunately, it retains the 3.5mm headphone jack, a welcome feature that’s becoming increasingly rare. For security, it offers a side-mounted fingerprint scanner integrated into the power button.

In a separate reveal by another X user Santanu @TechnicalShaan, the device will sport a 50MP main rear camera, accompanied by a second sensor. While official details about the secondary lens are yet to surface, it’s likely to be either a 2MP depth or bokeh sensor, or possibly an ultrawide if Lava decides to surprise.

As for pricing, the Blaze Dragon is rumoured to be launched at under Rs 10,000 in India, making it an appealing option in the entry-level market. The Blaze AMOLED 2 is expected to target a slightly higher segment.

Just days after an earlier leak revealed key specifications of the upcoming Redmi Turbo 5, a new report has surfaced that may confirm the chipset powering this mid-range smartphone. The same device is expected to launch globally under the POCO brand as the POCO X8 Pro. Here’s what we know so far.

Dimensity 8500 Ultra Could Power the Redmi Turbo 5/POCO X8 Pro

In a previous report, tipster Digital Chat Station claimed that the Redmi Turbo 5 would feature a 6.6-inch display with a 1.5K resolution, curved corners and a metal middle frame. Now, a fresh leak from tipster Yogesh Brar on X (formerly Twitter) suggests that the device may be powered by MediaTek’s new Dimensity 8500 Ultra SoC.

This speculation appears plausible, especially considering that the Redmi Turbo 4 and POCO X7 Pro were both equipped with the Dimensity 8400 Ultra chipset. Given that the Redmi Turbo 5 is widely expected to launch globally as the POCO X8 Pro, Brar’s leak could also be pointing to the processor that will drive the POCO X8 Pro.

In his post, Brar further mentions that the brand is planning “a big shift away from Qualcomm’s Snapdragon,” though he clarifies this change does not apply to the upcoming Redmi Turbo 5 or POCO X8 Pro.

What this broader shift away from Snapdragon entails remains unclear especially given Xiaomi’s long-standing partnership with Qualcomm for many of its smartphones. As of now, the report remains unconfirmed and it will be best to stay tuned for more official updates.

FAQs

Q1. What chipset is expected to power the Redmi Turbo 5 and POCO X8 Pro?

Answer. A fresh leak from tipster Yogesh Brar on X suggests that the device may be powered by MediaTek’s new Dimensity 8500 Ultra SoC.

Answer. Tipster Digital Chat Station claimed that the Redmi Turbo 5 would feature a 6.6-inch display with a 1.5K resolution, curved corners, and a metal middle frame.

Q3. Is Xiaomi moving away from Qualcomm’s Snapdragon processors?

Answer. Brar mentions that the brand is planning “a big shift away from Qualcomm’s Snapdragon,” though he clarifies this change does not apply to the upcoming Redmi Turbo 5 or POCO X8 Pro.
