The RICOH GR series has been known as a “street photography hero” because of its sharp quality, portability, and quick response. “That’s exactly what we value.”

The goal is to bring the RICOH GR series’ signature features, widely recognised in street photography, into mobile devices.

The Realme GT 8 Pro will be the first device to showcase this collaboration featuring co-engineered optical enhancements, advanced colour algorithms, and refined imaging tones. The camera system will include a custom user interface designed to replicate the feel of a RICOH GR camera. Leveraging RICOH GR’s 30-year heritage, the phone will integrate a film-like aesthetic and five classic image tones into its photography experience.

Further details on the partnership and the GT 8 Pro’s imaging capabilities will be revealed at the official launch on October 14, ahead of the phone’s China debut later this month.

Highlights

  • The iPhone 18 Fold will feature a hybrid titanium-aluminium frame for durability and a lightweight design.
  • A report suggests a possible titanium casing and stainless steel-titanium hinge mechanism.
  • It’s tipped to include a 5.5-inch outer screen and a 7.8-inch inner foldable display, potentially replacing Face ID with Touch ID, and running on a foldable-optimised iOS 27.

Apple’s long-rumoured iPhone 18 Fold is shaping up to be one of the company’s most ambitious products yet. A new investor note from analyst Jeff Pu offers fresh details about the device’s construction. Pu suggests that Apple will use a mix of titanium and aluminium for the foldable iPhone’s frame.

Upcoming iPhone Fold New Update

According to Pu’s report (via 9to5Mac), the iPhone 18 Fold will feature a hybrid metal frame made from both titanium and aluminium, a design choice likely intended to balance durability with weight. While Pu didn’t share further design specifics, previous leaks from Ming-Chi Kuo claimed that the foldable iPhone’s hinge mechanism would combine stainless steel and titanium, while the main casing would be made entirely of titanium.

Earlier this year, Bloomberg described the device as looking like “two titanium iPhone Airs side-by-side,” hinting at a slim and premium design approach.

Currently, Apple uses titanium only in the iPhone Air lineup. Earlier iPhone Pro models also featured titanium, but Apple switched those to aluminium this year to enhance thermal performance and manage heat more efficiently.

iPhone Fold – What Else We Know?

As for the display, reports indicate that the iPhone 18 Fold will come with a 5.5-inch outer screen and a 7.8-inch inner display. This setup makes the outer display similar in size to the iPhone mini, while the inner foldable screen is close to the iPad mini in dimensions.

Kuo’s report further notes that the device might skip Face ID in favour of Touch ID for biometric authentication.

On the software side, Apple is expected to make significant changes with iOS 27, which will reportedly be optimised for the foldable form factor. According to Bloomberg, iOS 27 will introduce new features tailored for foldable devices, ensuring a smooth experience when switching between display modes.

Pu’s investor note also mentions that demand for the iPhone 17 lineup has been stronger than Apple initially anticipated. It is a positive sign for the company as it prepares for its next big leap in smartphone design with the iPhone 18 Fold.

FAQs

Q1. What materials will the iPhone 18 Fold use for its frame?

Q2. What are the expected display sizes for the iPhone 18 Fold?

Answer. The device is tipped to feature a 5.5-inch outer screen, similar to the iPhone mini, and a 7.8-inch inner foldable display, which is close in size to the iPad mini.

Q3. Will the iPhone 18 Fold support Face ID?

Answer. Reports indicate that Apple may skip Face ID on the iPhone 18 Fold, opting instead for Touch ID as the primary biometric authentication method.

  • A Reddit image suggests Samsung’s Galaxy S26 Ultra may adopt a vibrant orange colour similar to the iPhone 17 Pro’s Cosmic Orange.

Orange colour in smartphones isn’t entirely a new concept but this year it has been making headlines, thanks to buzz around the iPhone 17 Pro series. The striking, extreme orange iPhone colour has been a point of discussion amongst tech enthusiasts and casual customers alike. And now, a new leak hints that Samsung may be taking a page from Apple’s playbook when it comes to colour choices for its upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra. And no one is understandably thrilled about it.

Is Galaxy S26 Ultra Getting an iPhone 17-Like Orange Colour?

A leaked image on Reddit has started the discourse that Samsung could offer a similarly bold orange variant for its next flagship smartphone.

The leak comes from Reddit user Direct-Till-2680, who shared a composite image allegedly showing Galaxy S26 Ultra dummy units. One of these units appears in an eye-catching, bright orange shade, much more vibrant than the subtle orange tones Samsung has previously used.

While some comments on the post have started accusing Samsung of copying Apple, it’s worth noting that the brand has offered orange models in the past. For instance, the Galaxy S24 series was available in an online-exclusive orange colour, though it featured a much softer hue.

The alleged S26 Ultra dummy, however, displays an intense orange finish that strongly resembles the Cosmic Orange seen on Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro lineup.

The comparisons don’t end there. Last year, Samsung launched its Galaxy Watch Ultra, which drew attention for looking remarkably similar to the Apple Watch Ultra, further fueling the narrative that Samsung might be following Apple’s design direction.

That said, not everyone is convinced about the leak’s authenticity.

Renowned leakster Steve H.McFly @OnLeaks on X (formerly Twitter) questioned the image’s credibility, claiming it was “likely an AI-generated picture.”

Online Reactions

The alleged leak has also sparked mixed reactions online, with many users expressing disappointment over the supposed imitation. Redditor losplatanos1 commented, “That color has to be a joke.”

Another user, TypicalWeirdoSOS, added, “Almost every huge phone company is trying to be like Apple, originality is dead.”

Similarly, user Innocent-Bystander94 questioned, “Bro not the orange. Not like this. The Apple copying allegations are going to continue hard with this. The fuck is going on in South Korea? Did they fire all their designers?”

While the authenticity of this leak remains uncertain, it has undoubtedly stirred conversation about Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra design choices.

FAQs

Q1. Is Samsung planning to release the Galaxy S26 Ultra in a bold orange colour?
