Samsung has dropped a new teaser video on YouTube and X (formerly Twitter) hinting at the arrival of the Galaxy A56 and Galaxy A36. Here’s everything we know from the teaser video.

New Samsung Teaser Video

While the video doesn’t explicitly showcase these models, leaks suggest that they will feature a redesigned camera island.

One of the biggest takeaways from the teaser is the mention of 6 OS updates. This is surprising because last year’s Galaxy A35 and A55 only received 4 OS updates. If true, this marks a major improvement for the 2025 A-series lineup bringing it closer to Samsung’s premium Galaxy S and Z series, which receive 7 years of updates.

Samsung hasn’t confirmed an exact launch date yet.

The @SamsungIndia X account hasn’t shared any updates on the Galaxy A36 and A56 nor the rumoured Galaxy A26. However, support pages for the Galaxy A26 have already gone live and the device has received India’s BIS certification, suggesting a launch is imminent.

Meanwhile, Samsung is also gearing up to launch the Galaxy M16 and M06 5G in India. However, no specific dates have been announced yet.

Samsung Galaxy A56 & A36 – What to Expect?

Leaks suggest that both phones will come with the following specs –

  • 6-inch OLED displays
  • 5,000mAh batteries with 45W fast charging
  • Exynos 1580 for the Galaxy A56
  • Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 for the Galaxy A36

As for pricing, Galaxy A56 is expected to be priced at Rs 39,999 in India keeping things in line with its predecessor.

With over 89 million A-series users, Samsung seems to be making big moves with its 2025 lineup. In any case, we can expect more details to come out as we get closer to the official launch.

But that’s not all.

Nothing’s Design Director Adam Bates also sat down with the brand’s YouTube team to discuss the design philosophy and the reasoning behind the periscope camera layout. You can watch the full discussion below.

The video titled “The SECRETS behind Phone (3a)” dives into the design process behind the Phone (3a) Series focusing on its bold new camera module. While Nothing is known for its distinctive designs, this camera setup stands out not just for its unique layout but also for how thick it is, with the module noticeably jutting out from the back.

The video highlights various design iterations including some that resemble leaked renders of the standard Phone (3a). After several refinements, Nothing has now officially revealed the rear design of the series.

“Where technical intricacy meets purity. The essence of Nothing,” the company said about the design.

The Nothing Phone (3a) Series features a large periscope telephoto camera positioned next to the main camera, giving it a distinct look. Above these, the ultra-wide camera and flash are neatly placed, all enclosed within a refined aluminium ring.

Compared to its predecessor, the Glyph LED layout has undergone slight changes offering a fresh take on Nothing’s signature lighting design. Another noticeable addition is an extra polished button below the power button, which could serve a unique function.

Leakers Agree on iPhone 17 Lineup CAD Drawings Revealing Three Different Camera Designs

Highlights

  • Three major leakers including Majin Bu, Fixed Focus Digital and i Ice Universe confirm the same iPhone 17 CAD drawing.
  • The CAD drawings reveal a Single camera for the iPhone 17 Air, dual cameras for the iPhone 17 and triple cameras for the iPhone 17 Pro & Pro Max.
  • CAD drawings show button placements and camera layouts.

There have been multiple reports on iPhone 17 lineup including some contradictory reports by different leakers. However, for the first time, we have three well-known leakers backing the same CAD drawing of the complete iPhone 17 lineup. While leaks often have conflicting details, this level of agreement suggests the designs could be accurate. Here’s what we know.

Three Major Leakers Confirm the Same iPhone 17 CAD

Tipster Majin Bu is known for accurate leaks including the iPhone 16e name and was the first one to share the CAD drawing. Bu shared the pictures on X (formerly Twitter) simply captioning it, “iPhone 17 Lineup CAD.”

Shortly after, other popular tipsters Fixed Focus Digital and i Ice Universe also shared the same image on Weibo reinforcing its credibility.

What iPhone 17 Leaked CAD Drawing Reveals?

While CAD drawings don’t provide a full picture of how the devices will look, they do confirm key external details like button placements and camera layouts. For example, comparing the iPhone 17 Pro Max CAD to Sonny Dickson’s latest render shows how much detail these blueprints can (and can’t) reveal.

The red area in the CAD drawing isn’t a visible design element and it’s likely just a reference mark. Also, while we can see where the LiDAR sensor and flash are positioned, the drawing doesn’t clarify whether the camera module will be a single raised bump or split into two sections as suggested by Dickson.

One of the biggest takeaways from the CAD drawings is the varied camera designs across the lineup:

  • iPhone 17 Air – Single camera in a horizontal bump
  • iPhone 17 – Dual cameras in a vertical bump
  • iPhone 17 Pro & Pro Max – Triple-camera set up in a triangular arrangement

The designs appear quite different seeing them side by side, but the final finishes will likely give them a more cohesive look.

FAQs

Q1. Which leakers confirmed the same iPhone 17 CAD drawing?

Answer. Three major leakers including Majin Bu, Fixed Focus Digital and i Ice Universe have confirmed the same iPhone 17 CAD drawing.

Q2. What does the iPhone 17 CAD drawing reveal about the camera designs?

Answer. The CAD drawings reveal different camera setups across the iPhone 17 lineup: single camera (iPhone 17 Air), dual cameras (iPhone 17), and triple cameras (iPhone 17 Pro & Pro Max).

Q3. What key details do the CAD drawings confirm about the iPhone 17 lineup?

Answer. CAD drawings confirm key external details like button placements and camera layouts but don’t fully reveal all design elements such as the exact camera module configuration.

Highlights

  • Apple is developing its first foldable iPhone set to be released in 2026.
  • Another new mystery iPhone design is expected in 2026 with details yet to be disclosed.
  • Apple’s 2025 and 2026 plans include several new models.
  • 2025 iPhone 17 Air and a major design update for the base model iPhone 18 in 2026.

Apple just launched the iPhone 16e and four more iPhone models including the much anticipated ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air are set to arrive later this year. But if Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman is to believe, 2026 could be even bigger for Apple with two brand-new iPhone designs in the works. It seems we will finally get to see the foldable iPhone and another mysterious model next year.

Two New iPhone Designs Expected in 2026

In his latest Power On newsletter, Gurman shared Apple’s iPhone roadmap for this year and next. While 2025 is bringing the iPhone 17 Air and design changes to the iPhone 17 Pro models, it’s what’s planned for 2026 that stands out.

Gurman reports via Bloomberg, “[Apple is] readying a skinnier iPhone for later this year and focused on finishing up development of its first foldable device for 2026. There’s also another new iPhone design in the works for that year, I’m told.”

There are two key takeaways from this. One, Apple’s foldable iPhone is still on track for a 2026 release and is nearing the end of development and two, a second iPhone next year will introduce a fresh design.

Interestingly, this is the first time we’ve heard about two new iPhone designs coming in the same year.

Gurman hasn’t shared details about this second new iPhone design, but it’s an interesting development especially since Apple is already introducing a redesigned 17 Air this year.

One possibility is that the base model iPhone 18 could see a major design update since it’s the only iPhone 17 model not expected to change much. However, Gurman’s wording suggests something more significant than just a base model refresh.

Apple’s 2026 iPhone plans are still a while away but these reports align with recent comments from CEO Tim Cook and hardware chief John Ternus about Apple’s increasingly ambitious iPhone roadmap.

In any case, we can expect more details to emerge as we get closer to 2026.

FAQs

Q1. What new iPhone designs are expected to be released by Apple in 2026?

Answer. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is finalizing the development of its first foldable iPhone, set to be released in 2026. Additionally, another new iPhone design is expected that year, with details yet to be disclosed.

Q2. What significant iPhone models are planned for release in 2024?

Answer. In 2024, Apple is set to release the iPhone 17 Air and introduce design changes to the iPhone 17 Pro models.

Q3. What is the focus of Apple’s iPhone development roadmap for 2026?

Answer. Apple’s 2026 iPhone development roadmap focuses on finishing up the development of its first foldable device and introducing another new iPhone design.

Highlights

  • A leaked hands-on video of the Pixel 9a reveals it looks cheaper compared to previous A-series models.
  • The video shows a camera bar and plastic rings contributing to its budget-friendly appearance.
  • Tech enthusiast Shane Craig noted that the Pixel 9a feels good in the hand and its plastic aesthetic resembles Nokia Lumia.
  • Rumoured Features – Tensor G4 processor, up to 8GB of RAM and a 120Hz OLED display.

The Google Pixel 9a leaks and rumours have been all over the internet in the past few months, revealing key details about the phone. A new hands-on video has given us a closer look at the device, but not without raising some questions. Unfortunately, some online reports expressed concerns that the device in the leaked video looks cheaper than previous A-series models. Here’s all we know.

Hands-On Leak Shows a Cheaper Look

A new leaked video gives us a first look at the Pixel 9a’s Obsidian colour model. The biggest takeaway is it looks noticeably cheaper than the Pixel 7a and 8a.

While the hands-on video has been removed by the original poster, it is still visible in a Threads post by Shane Craig.

While previous A-series Pixels also used different materials than their flagship counterparts, they didn’t look as budget-friendly as this one. The camera bar and plastic rings in particular give it a cheaper aesthetic compared to past models.

That said, Craig later clarified that while the Pixel 9a may look cheap, it actually feels good in the hand, describing it as having a “Nokia Lumia” plastic aesthetic. The matte finish seems to align with the current-gen Pixel design, even if the camera bar change makes it stand out.

EMBED POST – https://www.threads.net/@shanec.irl/post/DGbmh8ry5qD

Google Pixel 9a – Is It A Budget-Friendly Flagship?

Google hasn’t officially announced the Pixel 9a yet, but recent leaks suggest that it could follow a familiar formula, which involves offering flagship-level features at a lower price. That means we’ll likely get the following features –

  • Tensor G4 processor
  • Up to 8GB of RAM
  • 120Hz OLED display
  • All the key Pixel software features

However, to keep costs down, Google typically makes hardware compromises with the build materials. Now, the leaked video made many tech enthusiasts believe that cheaper build materials could be Google’s choice again this year.

With all the leaks piling up, we can assume that Google might make things official soon. The real question is whether the Pixel 9a will feel premium enough to justify its price, or if the cheaper design will turn buyers away.

FAQs

Q1. How does the Pixel 9a look in the leaked video?

Answer. The leaked video shows that the Pixel 9a looks noticeably cheaper compared to previous A-series models with a camera bar and plastic rings contributing to its budget-friendly appearance.

Q2. How does the Pixel 9a feel in the hand according to Tech influencer Shane Craig?

Answer. Shane Craig noted that the Pixel 9a feels good in the hand, describing its plastic aesthetic as similar to the “Nokia Lumia.”

Q3. What are some expected features of the Pixel 9a according to the leaks?

Answer. Leaks suggest that the Pixel 9a could offer flagship features like a Tensor G4 processor, up to 8GB of RAM and a 120Hz OLED display at a lower price.

Apple is getting ready to launch new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air models powered by the M4 chip soon. According to Mark Gurman’s latest report, the company is reportedly preparing for a March debut.

Rumours about the M4 MacBook Air have been circulating for months. Back in December, references to the new model even appeared in the macOS 15.2 beta hinting that a launch was imminent. The leaked software references the ‌MacBook Air‌ 13-inch M4 2025 and the ‌MacBook Air‌ 15-inch M4 2025″ which confirms that upcoming M4 ‌MacBook Air‌ models are in development and are most likely close to launching.

Gurman also had previously noted that the MacBook Air was on track to launch earlier than other spring products like the iPhone 16e and iPad Air.

However, the MacBook Air is still missing when the iPhone 16e has already arrived.

Now latest reports suggest that it is expected to change soon. Gurman reports that Apple is now preparing its marketing, sales and retail teams for the M4 MacBook Air launch. Moreover, the current M2 and M3 MacBook Air models are seeing low stock in stores, which further hints at an upcoming refresh.

Aside from the M4 chip, there aren’t many confirmed upgrades for the new MacBook Air. However, some possible improvements include the following –

  • Thunderbolt 4 support (instead of USB 4/Thunderbolt 3)
  • A centre-stage camera for better video calls
  • A nano-texture display option for reduced glare

These features have already appeared in other M4-powered Macs, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see them on the new Air as well.

With Apple gearing up for launch, we should get official details very soon.

Answer. Apple is set to launch new 13-inch and 15-inch MacBook Air models powered by the M4 chip in March.

A new leak from Apple insider Sonny Dickson on X (formerly Twitter) gives us a possible first look at the iPhone 17 Pro Max’s design. He shared an image of a rendered model and a MagSafe case revealing what could be a major camera redesign.

The images reveal that instead of a clustered camera module in the upper left corner, the flash, microphone and LiDAR sensor are now separated from the triple-lens setup, creating a more spread-out camera layout.

This new “camera bar” design is expected on the iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and the all-new ultra-thin iPhone 17 Air. However, the standard iPhone 17 and iPhone 17 Plus will likely keep the current camera setup.

Apple is planning to take in-house modem technology to the next level. According to Mark Gurman’s latest Power On newsletter, the company is working on integrating its future modems directly into the main chipset of its devices. This means that instead of having an A18 chip and a separate C1 modem, everything will be combined into one. However, this shift will take a few years to happen.

With the iPhone 16e, Apple quietly introduced its first-ever in-house 5G modem, the C1 modem. This was a key step in Apple’s long-term plan to replace Qualcomm modems in iPhones. However, for now, the C1 modem is exclusive to the iPhone 16e and isn’t available across the entire lineup.

According to Gurman, Apple will introduce the C2 modem next year but only in higher-end iPhones. Then, the C3 modem is expected later and will ideally outperform Qualcomm’s offerings altogether. The C1 modem for now isn’t perfect with some trade-offs in performance. However, its power efficiency has given the iPhone 16e the best battery life ever in a 6.1-inch iPhone.

Once Apple surpasses Qualcomm in performance, the company’s next goal is to integrate the modem directly into the main chipset. Gurman says this move will improve cost and efficiency, but it won’t happen until at least 2028.

Meanwhile, many tech enthusiasts online posed an interesting question. Will Apple still offer separate cellular and Wi-Fi-only versions of its devices? Right now, iPads and Apple Watches require a $50-$150 upgrade for cellular support. If Apple’s in-house modems become the default, could all devices have built-in cellular by default?

While answers to these questions are something only time will tell, Apple’s modem strategy is clearly evolving and we can expect big changes in the next few years.
