A few days ago, a popular security research company Check Point revealed that there’s a severe vulnerability in Qualcomm’s 5G modem, which was detected in December last year, affects around 30% of the total Android smartphones across the globe.

According to the report, it may allow hackers to remotely attack Android phones by inserting malicious code into their modem, gain the ability to execute code, access call records and text messages, and even listen to calls. Not only Samsung, but Google Pixel, LG, OnePlus, and Xiaomi phones may be also affected by this critical CVE.

But, Samsung recently confirmed that this new Qualcomm security flaw can’t affect any Galaxy device as select devices have been patched since January of 2021. Although the company published its May 2021 security bulletin a few days ago, it has recently updated the webpage and mentioned CVE-2020-11292* under the already fixed CVEs group.

* Select devices have been patched since January of 2021

It is important to mention that, in the May 2021 security patch details, the South Korean tech giant also mentioned that it has been patching the vulnerability since January 2021, which is excellent news for Samsung fans and also a straight message to other OEMs about its advanced software system.

Samsung Camera march 2024 update

Samsung is considering to launch an FE-branded Galaxy Z Flip 7 next year. The company reportedly entered a review of plans to introduce an affordable foldable phone this year. There is speculation that the rumored Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE might not debut this year.

According to TheElec, Samsung has been planning to launch the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE next year. It may be cheaper than the regular variant in favor of a downgraded display and processor. However, Samsung’s pricing strategy would be worth seeing for its first affordable Flip phone.

This year, the South Korean tech giant is expected to launch only two foldable phones. While there are no signs of a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra, the Fan Edition may also be canceled in review. Therefore, an FE lineup of foldable phones – Flip and Fold will likely join the segment in 2025.

Samsung could hold the next Galaxy Unpacked on July 10 in Paris. At the event, the company may not only launch new foldable phones but the Galaxy Watch 7 series and Galaxy Buds 3 Pro could also be launched. Well, Samsung hasn’t officially confirmed the event so far.

We are also hearing that the Exynos 2400 might not be employed in the Galaxy Z Flip 6 this year. The company has reportedly tested it but the chip has failed to offer satisfactory results. This means the Galaxy Z Flip 6 will also use Snapdragon chip internationally.
