While recent leaks around the Pixel 10 lineup have largely focused on hardware, the spotlight is now shifting to software. According to Android Headlines, the upcoming Pixel 10 series will introduce powerful new camera-related AI features, set to debut at the official launch on August 20. Here’s what we know about the new features so far.

Camera Coach

One of the standout features is a new tool called “Camera Coach”, powered by Google’s Gemini AI. Designed to help users take better photos in real-time, Camera Coach will offer live suggestions by analysing the scene. This includes prompts to adjust framing, improve lighting, and make other enhancements to help you get the best shot.

While it’s unclear how fast the scene analysis will be, the feature is expected to provide instant suggestions.

Conversational Photo Editing with Gemini

In addition to Camera Coach, the Pixel 10 lineup will introduce Conversational Photo Editing. It is another AI-driven tool powered by Gemini.

This feature allows users to edit photos using natural language prompts. You’ll be able to ask Gemini to change backgrounds, remove unwanted objects, brighten the image, and more, all without needing manual editing skills. The goal is to make photo editing as easy as chatting, giving users intuitive control over edits with simple voice or text commands.

These new AI features will be exclusive to the entire Pixel 10 series at launch, including the base model. However, Google may bring these features to older Pixel devices later through a Pixel Feature Drop.

Google’s Software-Driven Camera Strategy

Google has long leaned on software to elevate its Pixel cameras and the Pixel 10 series is no exception. While the base Pixel 10 gains a telephoto lens, it also includes smaller camera sensors across the lineup. However, thanks to Google’s computational photography, performance on these smaller sensors is expected to remain strong.

The Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL will continue using sensors similar to last year’s models, focusing improvements instead on AI and software-based enhancements.

Launch and Availability

Google will officially unveil the Pixel 10 series on August 20 with pre-orders opening the same day. The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro XL are all expected to begin shipping on August 28.

FAQs

Q1. What is the Camera Coach feature in the Pixel 10 series?

Answer. Camera Coach is a new AI tool powered by Google’s Gemini that provides real-time photo suggestions, such as adjusting framing and lighting, to help users take better pictures.

Q2. How does Conversational Photo Editing work on the Pixel 10?

Answer. It allows users to edit photos using natural language prompts like changing backgrounds, removing objects, or brightening images, without manual editing skills.

Q3. When will the Pixel 10 series be available?

Answer. The Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, and Pixel 10 Pro XL will be officially unveiled on August 20, with shipping starting August 28.

Instagram is rolling out a repost feature. You can now repost public Reels and feed posts, which will then be recommended to your friends and followers in their feeds. These reposts will also appear in a separate tab on your profile, allowing you or others to revisit them at any time.

Reposts credit the original creator. This means that if someone reposts your content, it may get recommended to their followers, even if those users don’t follow you. This gives creators a new way to reach a broader audience.

To repost, simply tap the repost icon on a Reel or post. A thought bubble will appear where you can add a note before pressing save.

Location Sharing via Instagram Map

Your location is updated whenever you open the app or return to it after it’s been running in the background. You can disable location sharing at any time.

For parents using Instagram’s supervision tools, there are added controls. Parents will be notified when their teen activates location sharing, enabling important conversations about online safety. They can also view who their teen is sharing their location with and manage whether the feature is available to them.

Even if you don’t enable location sharing, you can still explore the Instagram map to see content tagged with locations such as stories from concerts, Reels from local creators, or posts from friends at interesting spots.

Galaxy Z Fold 7 Survives 200,000 Manual Folds in YouTube Live Durability Test

0

Highlights

  • In a YouTube livestream by Tech IT, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 was manually folded 200,000 times simulating over 5 years of daily use.
  • The phone rebooted early on, developed hinge creaks and a visible crease.
  • It lost speaker function at 175,000 folds but remained operational throughout.

Samsung’s latest foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, has been turning heads with its sleeker design and less noticeable crease. However, no matter what the brand claims or how impressive the device looks, there is always a durability concern when it comes to foldable devices.

A Korean YouTube creator Tech IT decided to put that to the test with a real-world folding experiment. Here’s what happened.

Galaxy Z Fold 7 – Live Manual Fold Test

In a livestream on the Tech IT channel, one of the hosts manually folded the Galaxy Z Fold 7 an incredible 200,000 times to evaluate how it holds up under long-term usage.

Unlike controlled lab tests using robotic arms and ideal conditions, this was a hands-on durability challenge designed to simulate actual daily wear and tear. Along the way, several minor issues cropped up. The phone unexpectedly rebooted sometime between 6,000 and 10,000 folds.

By 46,000 folds, the hinge began to creak. At around 75,000 folds, viewers noticed a mysterious liquid near the hinge, though it didn’t seem to affect the device’s performance.

At the halfway point of 100,000 folds, the crease became more noticeable and the hinge made a soft crackling sound, but both the display and hinge mechanism remained fully functional.

At 175,000 folds, the Fold 7’s speaker stopped working, though the issue didn’t appear directly related to the folding mechanism. Despite this setback, the phone successfully reached the 200,000-fold milestone without suffering any major failure.

That number is no small feat. Folding a phone 100 times a day amounts to over five years of use, meaning the Fold 7 stood up well under extreme conditions. While Samsung officially rates the hinge and flexible display to last 500,000 folds under standard conditions, this test showed some signs of wear like a louder hinge and a more pronounced crease. But overall, the device remained operational.

You can check out the complete live test video below –

FAQs

Q1. How many times was the Galaxy Z Fold 7 manually folded in the YouTube test?

Answer. The device was manually folded 200,000 times during a livestream by Korean YouTube channel Tech IT, simulating over five years of daily usage.

Q2. Did the Galaxy Z Fold 7 experience any issues during the folding test?

Answer: Yes, several minor issues occurred. The phone rebooted unexpectedly between 6,000 and 10,000 folds. The hinge began to creak at 46,000 folds. A mysterious liquid appeared near the hinge around 75,000 folds. The speaker stopped working at 175,000 folds.

Q3. How does the Fold 7’s real-world durability compare to Samsung’s official rating?

Answer. Samsung officially rates the Fold 7’s hinge and display to last 500,000 folds under lab conditions. In the manual test, the device showed signs of wear like a louder hinge and deeper crease but still reached 200,000 folds without major failure.

This places it second overall, just behind the OPPO Find X8 Ultra. Its strong performance in still photography is driven by a standout 35mm main lens, powerful zoom capabilities and a high-quality ultra-wide sensor.

The phone’s 35mm-equivalent main camera offers excellent subject-background separation, making it particularly effective for portrait photography. Facial details are rendered with natural contrast and accurate skin tones, while the background blur mimics the quality of DSLR images.

Portrait mode is one of the Vivo X200 Ultra’s strongest aspects. It consistently delivers accurate subject segmentation, even around tricky areas like hair and maintains performance in low-light conditions. The background blur appears smooth and edge artefacts are minimal. However, the narrow depth of field may slightly affect focus in group portraits.

Zoom capabilities are another standout feature, led by the 200MP periscope telephoto lens. The camera captures sharp and detailed images up to 10x magnification in daylight. Even in moderate lighting, zoomed shots retain good clarity and contrast. While detail may soften slightly beyond 5x in low light, telephoto video still performs well with vivid colours and decent stabilisation, though noise becomes noticeable in darker environments.

The ultra-wide camera is among the best in its class, producing sharp, low-distortion images with excellent edge-to-edge detail. It remains reliable in low light, delivering balanced exposures and natural colours, although fine detail is a bit lower than the main sensor.

For video, the primary camera performs admirably, managing exposure and focus transitions effectively. It supports 4K video at 120fps with natural, vibrant colours in various lighting conditions.

Stabilisation works well in handheld shots, though slight motion may still occur when walking. Video from both the telephoto and ultra-wide lenses is also solid in bright environments, though dynamic range decreases under more challenging lighting.

Low-light performance is strong across the board. The main lens captures clear, detailed images with accurate colours. The ultra-wide and telephoto sensors perform reasonably well in darker scenes, though with more visible noise and softness.

It appears the next Apple Watch will have some display upgrades. A new leak discovered in the latest iOS 26 beta suggests that Apple’s upcoming Watch Ultra 3 may come with a slightly larger display. Here’s what we know so far.

Apple Watch Ultra 3 – Leak

The leak was found by MacRumors contributor Aaron Perris based on an image of an Apple Watch in the latest iOS 26 beta. It shows a resolution that doesn’t match any current models.

While there’s no indication that Apple will increase the casing size, the boost in resolution may be the result of thinner bezels, allowing more screen real estate within the same overall dimensions.

In addition to the larger display, previous rumours have already hinted at other upgrades. These would most likely include satellite connectivity for off-grid communication, a brighter display with a higher refresh rate, a new chip and potentially new health features such as blood pressure monitoring.

As for the launch, Apple is expected to officially unveil the Apple Watch Ultra 3 this fall. It would most likely be alongside the iPhone 17 lineup and the Apple Watch Series 11.
