Acer introduces five new gaming monitors
Acer has unveiled a group of new gaming monitors, including a pair of 26.5-inch QD-OLED screens under its Predator label. The Predator X27U F5 has peak refresh rate of 500Hz and a resolution of 2560x1440, while the Predator X27 X has a 4K screen and a 240Hz refresh rate. Both monitors offer AMD FreeSync Premium Pro technology to prevent screen tearing and support true 10Bit color. They are slated to be available in the third quarter for the EMEA region and China. The X27U F5 will start at €899 and the X27 X starts at €1,099.
The high refresh rate on the Predator X27U F5 is particularly notable. Samsung just opened limited pre-orders of its own 500Hz monitor over the weekend, which the company claimed was the first product to pair that refresh rate with OLED visuals in a gaming monitor.
Other Acer monitors in the lineup are part of its line of Nitro Google Smart TV monitors. The Acer Nitro GA321QK P is a 31.5-inch 4K screen with a 165Hz refresh rate, while the Acer Nitro GA341CUR W0 has a 34-inchultra-wide QHD curved display that refreshes at 240Hz. There's also a portable option in the lightweight Acer Nitro PG271K, which has an adjustable kickstand. This 27-inch monitor can be a 4K display with a 72Hz refresh rate or a full HD one with a 144Hz refresh rate thanks to Dynamic Frequency and Resolution technology. No prices or timeline has been shared yet for the first two Nitro monitors, but the PG271K is projected to cost €499 when it arrives in the EMEA region.

Samsung Teases Ultra-Grade Foldable Phone With a 'Powerful Camera,' AI Tools
Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Fold seems to be joining forces with the top-of-the-line Galaxy Ultra. The company on Wednesday shared a rather cryptic post teasing its next book-stye foldable, noting that it's bringing "an Ultra-experience" to "a smaller and more portable form factor." The phone is scheduled to launch this summer, Samsung says, and will include a "powerful camera" and "AI-powered tools" (of course). Samsung didn't share much more than that, and hasn't noted anything else about what's in store for the successors to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6. But the post does confirm that we can expect foldables in the summer. This teaser raises many questions. Namely, just how powerful will the camera be on this new phone? Will it, like the skinny S25 Edge, match the 200-megapixel main camera on the S25 Ultra? And will the new foldable's cover display also match the size of the S25 Ultra? Samsung appears to be on a "pushing the limits of engineering" kick, what with the recent launch of the super-slim Galaxy S25 Edge, and now this mystery Ultra foldable. We'll see what other details unfold with time.

Looks like we're getting a foldable Galaxy Ultra.
Samsung is hinting strongly at an Ultra branded foldable coming soon. The company's press release references a foldable with a 'powerful camera,' which is traditionally a weakness of folding phones. Between this Ultra model and a rumored FE version of the Z Flip, we might have a whole bunch of new folding phones on our hands later this summer.

However, it looks like the formula could change in 2025. This is due to Samsung just announcing an Ultra-branded book-style foldable is coming this summer.
