We finally know what the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will look like, and it’s hard not to be enamored with its Gameboy SP vibes. The Z Flip 7 will have a 3.6-inch cover display that opens to a 6.8-inch internal display, making it officially larger than its predecessor. It’s a welcome bump in size, although the Z Flip 7 is still smaller than other flip phones on the market.

The images come from an official CAD render leak for the Z Flip 7, first obtained by Android Headlines. While these leaks don’t confirm the device’s internal specs, they do make it easier to make educated guesses based on what we see.

Let’s start with the cameras. Dual cameras grace the cover, while a punch hole camera sits at the top-center of the interior.  The Galaxy Z Flip 7 will most likely use the same configuration as the Flip 6, with a 50MP primary camera and a 12MP ultra wide. It’s possible that Samsung will upgrade the sensors, even if the resolution remains the same — but not even the flagship Galaxy S25 saw significant camera upgrades, so it’s best not to hold your breath.

EXCLUSIVE BREAKING LEAK: Samsung's GALAXY Z Flip 7 LEAKED Design REVEALED!

The internal screen crease looks less prominent, although that could also be due to the quality of the render. When fully open, the crease seems all but invisible, the hinge the only indication of its location. That lines up with other leaks, although the tipsters (like PandaFlash X) say the crease isn’t gone, just significantly diminished. They also suggest it will come with a more durable hinge — a step in the right direction for Samsung, whose hinges have proven to be a weak point on the phones.

Rumors have ping-ponged between a Qualcomm and Exynos chip for the internals, although the consensus in more recent leaks points towards the Exynos 2500 SoC. That’s not confirmed, however, so don’t take it as fact until Samsung reveals the specs.

We expect to see the phone arrive with 12GB of RAM and a choice between 256 and 512GB of storage, as well as a slate of Galaxy AI features. As for price, the Z Flip 7 will most likely hold firm with a starting price around $1,100.

You can expect to see the Z Flip 7 — and the Z Fold 7 — hit shelves sometime in July or August, with more information emerging as the launch date nears.

Stardust, Flo and other popular period trackers flunk Mozilla’s latest privacy test
Euki scored a perfect 10, whereas Stardust scored a dismal 2 on privacy.

Your period tracker knows some of your most personal health details. The question is whether it keeps them private. Mozilla has published a new privacy review of six popular period tracking apps, ranking them from best to worst based on how they collect, store, and share sensitive reproductive health data.

One app earned a perfect score for keeping data on your device, while another landed at the bottom after researchers found it shared users' health information with an analytics company. These findings arrive at a time when privacy around reproductive health data remains a growing concern, especially after the overturning of Roe v. Wade in the US.

Pixel 11a leak reveals a flagship chip and a modem upgrade it badly needs
The cheaper Pixel 11a may get the same Tensor G6 chip as Google’s flagship phones

Google is less than a month away from launching the Pixel 11 series. The company has already started teasing the phones ahead of its August 12 event, including a brief look at the new Pixel Glow light built into the camera bar. We expect to see the Pixel 11, Pixel 11 Pro, Pixel 11 Pro XL, and Pixel 11 Pro Fold on stage.

The more affordable Pixel 11a will probably arrive much later, likely in spring 2027. Still, a new leak from Mystic Leaks has already revealed most of its hardware, and Google may be fixing the biggest compromise it made on the Pixel 10a.

Apple has raised the price of every iPhone currently sold through its online store in Japan. The increase covers the iPhone 16, iPhone 17e, iPhone 17, iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max, with prices climbing by as much as 11.3%.

The change arrives only a month after Apple raised Mac and iPad prices worldwide due to the ongoing memory crunch. This increase, however, appears to have more to do with the falling value of the Japanese yen.
