Samsung’s Android overlay, evolved for bigger screens
ZDNet has reported that most people no longer need flagship levels of phone storage or RAM. For storage, 128GB or 256GB will suit most users who stream and use cloud backups; 64GB is now the bare minimum. For RAM, 8GB–12GB will cover most use cases while high-tier RAM is driving device price increases in 2026.
Google’s Pixel 11 series is expected to launch with price hikes across the lineup, a focus on software advantages, and hardware updates including a Pro Fold variant. The Pixel Watch 5 is also anticipated, with a new LED camera-light on the Pixel 11. Leaks point to a later retail release with preorders opening the same day as the event.
Apple has unveiled its first foldable iPhone, the iPhone Duo, with a 7.6-inch inner display and a 5.4-inch outer screen. It launches at $1,999, positioning Apple against Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 and signaling a potential shift in premium smartphones. The device offers a book-style design, a matte inner display, and an under-display selfie camera, while rivals emphasize their crease-free engineering.
