What you need to know The Galaxy S27 Ultra could replace its 3x and 5x telephoto cameras with a single new 4x f/1.9 zoom camera. The rumored 4x telephoto camera would match the native optical zoom of the iPhone 17 Pro. Leaked CAD renders appear to show room for only one telephoto camera alongside the Galaxy S27 Ultra's main sensors. A new leak may have revealed the new zoom camera Samsung is planning for the Galaxy S27 Ultra. The Galaxy S27 Ultra is finally starting to take shape. We recently saw CAD renders of the Galaxy S27 Ultra that revealed a redesigned camera module with an iPhone 17 Pro-like horizontal camera plateau. Another leak also suggested that Samsung might finally increase the battery capacity on its upcoming flagship. Now, the same leaker who claimed Samsung is working on self-healing display glass for the Galaxy S27 Ultra has shared on X that the phone could feature a new...

The memory crisis is affecting the mid-range phone category to a noticeable extent in 2026, and that is evident with the launch of the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max. Previous models in the series stood out for delivering the best hardware and value, but that hasn't been the case for the last two years at least. While the Redmi Note 14 Pro+ had a great design and 200MP camera, it debuted with outdated software and shortsighted moves like missing 4K60 video. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ had similar issues, and it cost even more while offering less in the way of features. (Image credit: Apoorva Bhardwaj / Android Central) Annoyingly, the Redmi Note 17 Pro Max is even worse. Xiaomi is distracting buyers by adding a huge 9,210mAh silicon-carbon battery that ostensibly lasts up to three days, but there's no getting around the fact that this phone is slower, doesn't have as much memory, and isn't as...

Google finally upgraded the base storage with the Pixel 11 series , among other notable upgrades and modifications. One thing remains constant, though, and that's the number of models launched. There's the basic Pixel 11, the more advanced but petite Pixel 11 Pro, and the larger-than-life Pixel 11 Pro XL. Upgrades like increased internal memory, a faster processor, and the fancy HiLight in its RGB glory come at a cost; the Pixel 11 series starts at $100 more than the Pixel 10 series. The spike in RAM prices may also be to blame, but it doesn't matter who the culprit is. You're here to decide which of the three Pixel 11 models deserves your money the most. So, how do you decide which Google Pixel 11 model you should buy? Each phone has something to offer and caters to a particular kind of user. Let's compare all three devices and come to a conclusion.

Samsung's book-style foldables have historically featured squarish (1:1) aspect ratios for their main displays, but the Galaxy Z Fold 8 changes that. It's a wider foldable with a 7.6-inch folding display that uses a 4:3 aspect ratio. As a result, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is better for widescreen video and mobile games, such as modern TV shows, movies, and game titles you're likely to play on an Android foldable. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 makes a handful of compromises to get there, so it's not for everyone. Luckily, the Android foldable market is ripe with options — and Apple is said to be gearing up to launch a wide "iPhone Ultra" foldable as well. For now, there are five Android phones I'd consider instead of the Galaxy Z Fold 8. Whether you're looking for great displays, long battery life, sharp cameras, or maximum durability, there's something for everyone here. Sa...

I admit I was a little disappointed to learn that the Pixel Watch 5 is powered by essentially a boosted version of the same chip from the previous Pixel Watch, rather than the new Snapdragon Wear Elite , which is positioned as a premium smartwatch chip for on-device AI and more. However, after reviewing the Galaxy Watch 9 and testing the Pixel Watch 5 for two weeks, I realized that Google may have made the right choice by skipping the Wear Elite. As a result, the Pixel Watch 5 delivers smooth performance, supports new AI features, and maintains good battery life. Unfortunately, the one feature I was looking forward to isn't here yet. The same charm (Image credit: Derrek Lee / Android Central) Aesthetically, the Pixel Watch 5 is no different from the Pixel Watch 4 , with a sleek design that still feels fresh yet is also starting to get a little old. The domed glass screen is gorgeous, and th...

Google’s Pixel smartphones have never been the strongest in terms of raw power or customization, but they represent something of a consumer-friendly, accessible option for those who want an easy Android experience. The Pixel 11 is the latest representation of Google’s software and hardware coming together to showcase how far Android has come and how useful AI can be, even if we love to hate it. I’ve been using the Pixel 11 for a few weeks now, and it feels like Google is navigating an interesting intersection between AI and social media, one that companies like Samsung are also starting to hone in on. The result is a phone that feels fresh, fun, and functional while remaining one of the best flagship options for your wallet. It’s the small things (Image credit: Derrek Lee / Android Central) At first glance, the Pixel 11 looks and feels as small and pocketable as the Pixel 10 . Unfortunately, the...
