So far, we’ve seen a bunch of leaks, reports, and even premature unboxing video that is enough to reveal the company’s upcoming devices. And we now have another massive Galaxy A52 and A72 leak just a few hours ahead of launch.
According to the latest information, an unboxing video spotted on YouTube shows a retailer already has both the Galaxy A52 and A72 models. The video reconfirms that both of the upcoming phones will equip a silicon case and charger in the box.
In terms of design, the Galaxy A72 and Galaxy A52 have a plastic panel on the back and a punch-hole display called Infinity-O display by Samsung. Aside from this, another thing is now confirmed that these smartphones have a hybrid SIM card slot, which means you can’t use two SIMs and a memory card at the same time.

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE looks more like S24 FE than S25 in live images; supports Qi2 charging

Samsung Galaxy S25 FE just popped up in some live images on the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) site, and it’s giving us a good look at what this phone’s all about. It’s the first time we’re seeing live shots after the previous render leak.
The front has a nice, clean display with a punch-hole camera and rounded corners, which feels pretty standard but sleek. Flip it over, and you’ve got three cameras on the back, each with a silver ring around it (via TheTechOutlook).
The phone in the images is a cool grey color, so that’s definitely one of the options you’ll be able to pick. You can check out the front and back in the live images, and honestly, it looks a lot more like the Galaxy S24 FE than the Galaxy S25.

The WPC listing also spills some details about charging. Similar to the Galaxy S25 series, the upcoming S25 FE supports Qi2 Ready (version 2.1.0). That said, it is ready for Qi2 wireless charging, but it doesn’t feature magnets inside.
Samsung would offer Qi2-compatible cases for the Galaxy S25 FE. The case will have magnets to unlock faster and reliable wireless charging. It’s a major upgrade over the S24 FE that practically enhances the user experience.
The Galaxy S25 FE may launch around October this year. It will be powered by an Exynos 2400 processor with a 10-core CPU and an Xclipse GPU. The rigid OLED is also being replaced with flagship-grade flexible OLED screens.
Out of the box, the device will run Android 16-based One UI 8. While the design feels like an S24 FE replica, the thickness is being reduced. It would be released as the company’s thinnest Fan Edition smartphone yet.

Check how many battery charges your Samsung phones can survive (EU Data)

Smartphone batteries don’t last forever, but how long can yours keep going? The European Union’s new energy label program gives us clear answers. It rates devices on power efficiency, durability, and battery charge cycles. Let’s dive into the supported battery charge cycles for a range of Samsung Galaxy phones, as per EU data.
The EU’s energy labels show how many charge cycles a phone’s battery can handle before it starts to degrade. A charge cycle is one full charge, from 0% to 100%, with cycles could happen in one go or over multiple partial charges, and Samsung phones stand out in the EU data.
Samsung’s Galaxy S25 series phones show battery health and cycle count data. The new stats are inspired by Apple iPhones, which have shown such data for years. Meanwhile, Samsung’s battery stats are not widely available on Galaxy devices.
Here’s how many charges your Galaxy device could survive:
2,000 charge cycles:
- Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, S25 Ultra, S25 Edge
- Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 FE (S25 Plus and Ultra aren’t listed yet)
- Galaxy A56, Galaxy A36
- Galaxy XCover7, XCover7 Pro
- Galaxy Tab Active5, Tab Active5 Pro
- Galaxy Tab S10 Plus, Tab S10 Ultra, Tab S10 FE, Tab S10 FE Plus
Samsung flagships like the Galaxy S25, S25 Plus, S25 Ultra, and S25 Edge are rated for 2,000 charge cycles. Other Samsung models also shine:
- The Galaxy S24 series, Galaxy A56, A36, XCover7, XCover7 Pro, and Tab S10 series (including Plus, Ultra, FE, and FE Plus) all boast 2,000 charge cycles.
This means they can maintain at least 80% of their original battery capacity after 2,000 full charges. That’s impressive compared to most devices, which typically fall between 1,000 and 1,400 cycles.
1,200 charge cycles:
- Galaxy A26
- Galaxy A16
The Galaxy A26 and A16 are rated for 1,200 cycles, still above the average for many brands.

Apple iPhone 17e may go head-to-head with Samsung Galaxy S25 FE in 2026

A new report claims that Apple will launch the iPhone 17e next year. It will follow up on the main models, which are set to drop this September. The affordable iPhone 17e will compete with Samsung’s Galaxy S25 FE.
Korea’s TheElec reports that the Apple iPhone 17e may launch in Spring 2026. It’s a calendar timeline between March and May in certain countries. Samsung’s Galaxy S25 FE will launch later this year, and rival Apple’s iPhone 17e.
There’s a major hardware difference expected in these two phones.
Samsung is slated to use premium flexible OLED in the Galaxy S25 FE. The company’s Display arm is gearing up to start mass-producing OLED panels for this Fan Edition product.
On the other hand, Apple will keep recycling aged OLED panels initially manufactured for the iPhone 14 in the iPhone 17e next year, after doing it once for the iPhone 16e this year.

Samsung Display will supply OLED screens for the iPhone 17e next year. LG Display and China’s BOE will also enjoy Apple orders for display panels for its next affordable iPhone.
The report states that Apple will launch a new iPhone “e” model every year after the 2026 release. The company will retain an affordable model to compete with its biggest rival, Samsung, in terms of worldwide volumes shipped.
The iPhone maker aims to maintain annual iPhone shipments of 220 million to 230 million units. Among them, the iPhone “e” models could have a capping of 20 million to avoid sales harm to the main models that are Apple’s cash cow.

Samsung phones beat Apple and Google with longer battery lifespan

Samsung phones now have the longest battery lifespan compared to Apple and Google smartphones. A new report shows that Samsung’s batteries last much longer before wearing out.
The information comes from a new European Union (EU) energy report. The EU now requires smartphone companies to clearly show how long their batteries should last. This is measured in charge cycles by how many times a phone battery can go from 0% to 100% before its capacity drops to 80%.
Samsung’s latest Galaxy S series phones, like the Galaxy S25 series, are rated for 2,000 charge cycles. This means the battery will still keep about 80% of its strength even after 2,000 full charges.
In comparison, Apple’s newest iPhones, like the iPhone 16 Pro Max, are rated for 1,000 charge cycles, and Google Pixel phones for just 500. This means Samsung phones can last twice as long as iPhones and four times longer than Pixels when it comes to battery lifespan.

Samsung has been working to make stronger and more durable batteries instead of just bigger ones. This helps users keep their phones for longer and saves money.
While actual battery life depends on how you use your phone, these official ratings give a clear idea of what to expect. If you’re looking for a phone that stays powerful for years, Samsung’s new models are hard to beat.
At the Galaxy Unpacked event 2025, Samsung will introduce the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7 smartphones. This foldable smartphone also received the same rating of 2,000 charge cycles. Pre-Reservation has also started, you can do it and get amazing freebies!

This Galaxy S27 Ultra camera rumor might convince you to skip the S26 Ultra

Samsung’s Galaxy S series is known for pushing smartphone photography forward. Recent leaks about an upgraded ISOCELL HP2 200MP camera sensor for the Galaxy S27 Ultra have sparked excitement.
As detailed on Weibo, the upgraded ISOCELL HP2 is a three-layer stacked sensor with a hybrid-shutter design. It offers 12.5MP at 96fps in global shutter mode and 200MP in Super QPD rolling shutter mode.
This combination promises high resolution and smooth performance.
Trusted tipster Ice Universe re-shared these camera details on Weibo, noting the Galaxy S27 Ultra as the likely target. They added, “It would be even better if it is on the S26 Ultra.” This suggests the Galaxy S26 Ultra might not get this sensor.
The upgraded ISOCELL could bring high dynamic range, low noise, and fast global shutter features. These capabilities would deliver sharper photos, better low-light performance, and smoother video capture, even in difficult conditions.
The design uses a modified rolling shutter pixel with a voltage memory in the second layer. This enables a voltage-domain global shutter, making full use of the stacked pixel architecture for improved speed and image quality.

Galaxy S26 Ultra, which is rumored to reuse S25 Ultra’s camera setup, already feels outdated. If Samsung doesn’t plan a noteworthy camera upgrade in its next flagship, many users might end up skipping it for the next generation.
Well, this flagship is rumored to feature an enhanced ISOCELL HP2 sensor over the S25 Ultra. The Telephoto camera might retain 3x optical zoom, but the 10-megapixel sensor might finally be replaced with a new 12-megapixel solution.
Well, Samsung hasn’t confirmed these details, so take them with a grain of salt.
