Samsung has had a busy year of phone launches so far, not only announcing the Galaxy S25 series at the beginning of the year, followed by the Galaxy A56 in March, but it also very recently released the super slim Galaxy S25 Edge.

We aren’t even half way through the year and there are already seven new Samsung Galaxy phones to choose from, but if you thought that was it for 2025, think again.

There’s more to come and we don’t just mean in terms of the company’s foldable phones, which are expected by the end of the summer in the form of at least the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The Fan Edition – or FE model – of the Galaxy S25 is also rumored however, and the latest report suggests it could see a nice upgrade.

What could the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE offer?

According to GalaxyClub – which has a pretty decent track record when it comes to Samsung rumors – the Galaxy S25 FE is claimed to be getting an improved front facing camera. It’s said the 2025 FE device will feature a 12-megapixel front camera, matching the resolution of the Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus and Galaxy S25 Ultra, though it’s not clear if it’s the same sensor at the moment. 

Still, your selfies should at least see some improvements compared to the Galaxy S24 FE, which has a 10-megapixel front camera. In terms of the other camera specs on the Galaxy S25 FE, GalaxyClub claims the main camera will be a 50-megapixel sensor like the Galaxy S23 FE, Galaxy S24 FE and the regular Galaxy S models that have launched since the Galaxy S22.

For now, nothing is confirmed by Samsung of course but we’re always here for improvements, not matter how small and especially ones that can make our face look a little better (we hope). As for when the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE might make an appearance, it’s expected in the latter half of the year so it’s likely the company’s foldables will be first.

Meta just launched a vibe-coding app for games, and it’s called Pocket
The new AI-powered app lets users create, play, and share mini-games using natural language.

If "vibe coding" wasn't already everywhere, Meta is making sure it is now. The company has quietly launched Pocket, a new AI-powered app that lets users generate, play, and share interactive mini-games simply by typing what they want. No game engine, no programming language, and definitely no debugging at 2 a.m. Just prompts.

OPPO’s Bubble made me wish magnetic accessories were this fun
This magnetic OPPO accessory is more useful than it looks
Oppo Bubble Featured

Some smartphone accessories, like power banks, are quite useful, while others are cute for about five minutes before the novelty wears off. The Oppo Bubble looked like it was going to be part of that latter, but I had too much fun with it, and now I want more accessories to be this way. One that doesn't take itself too seriously, without missing out on some well-thought-out functionality.

I used it with the Oppo Reno 16 Pro, which already has one of the flashier phone designs I have seen this year. The Pop White version has Oppo’s 3D Pop Planet look on the back, giving it this floating, toy-like visual effect. Snap the Bubble onto the rear, and it's all iced out.

Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide just leaked again, and this time the biggest takeaway isn't the cameras or the color — it's the shape. Two fresh leaks are painting a clearer picture of Samsung's next book-style foldable, suggesting the company may finally be addressing one of the Galaxy Z Fold lineup's longest-running complaints.

Sometimes wider really is better
