Vivo X Fold 5 With 50MP Periscope Zeiss Camera Unveiled: India Launch Soon?
Vivo X Fold 5 has been introduced in China this week and we can expect the foldable to compete with Samsung's new Fold 7 model
Vivo X Fold 5 is finally here to up the ante and take the early plaudits before the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 rolls out next month. The X Fold 5 builds on the promising X Fold 3 Pro version and looks to change the dynamics of a foldable that can give a tough fight to the best in the business. Vivo is using last year's Snapdragon 8 chipset but upgrades in almost every other aspect.
The company has been comparing its design and sleekness with the iPhone 16 Pro Max recently and these official visuals give us the clear details.
Now talking about the cameras, the X Fold 5 features a triple system with Zeiss T lens coating. You have a 50MP primary sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide lens and a 50MP periscope telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom.
We can't wait to see how the Vivo X Fold 5 is priced in the Indian market and how many variants do we get in the country.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G design leaked, could be our first real glimpse
Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G launch is about 6 months away, and a realistic-looking smartphone design has just surfaced, giving us an early glimpse of the potential design. The smartphone is already hyped as leaks and rumours about its upgrades are circulating, but as we get a first glimpse, the Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G looks like it's shaping out expectations for next year's flagship. Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G is expected to come with a new camera module design to store enhanced camera lenses.(Ice Universe) Coming to the Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G design, we could notice a few potential changes, such as three grouped camera lenses, similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The smartphone frame is also looking slightly thicker than usual, but the overall thickness and weight are expected to be reduced in comparison to the current model. Therefore, let's have a closer look at what the Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G could look like during the launch. Also read: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7 FE, and Watch 8: Here's everything announced at Galaxy Unpacked July event Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G design Tipster who goes by the name Ice Universe shared a fan-made design render of the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G model, claiming that it could potentially be the real design. While the tipster showed uncertainty about the final design, the previous leaks have hinted towards a similar-looking design. As of now, the Galaxy S25 Ultra 5G do not come with a separate camera module or bump, which makes the device slightly thicker. However, this could likely change with the new generation model. Also read: Samsung Galaxy S25 FE may not be as powerful as we expected it to be, this may be the reason Reportedly, Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G could launch with an even slimmer design than its predecessor. Whereas, it is reported to bring larger apertures for its 5x telephoto lens for more light to enter the lens, requiring more space; hence, the next year's Ultra model could feature a camera module that could measure around 3mm in thickness. Furthermore, the camera module may look very similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 grouped lenses, housing a main, ultrawide, and a 5x telephoto lens. Therefore, Samsung is expected to retain a slimmer build without compromising on crucial features. The camera bump will also allow the company to bring enhancements to camera performance, despite losing a few millimetres on the overall design. Well, the final design is yet to be confirmed, but the fan-made design render looks quite promising with the expected upgrades and design changes. Now, we simply have to wait a few more months to know what the real Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra 5G would look like.

Musk says Tesla, Samsung Electronics sign $16.5 billion chip supply deal
Tesla CEO Elon Musk said the U.S. automaker had signed a $16.5 billion deal to source chips from Samsung Electronics, a move expected to bolster the South Korean tech giant's loss-making contract manufacturing business. Samsung shares rose more than 4% after the news. 'Samsung's giant new Texas fab will be dedicated to making Tesla's next-generation AI6 chip. The strategic importance of this is hard to overstate,' Musk said in a post on X on Monday. If Musk was referring to Samsung's upcoming Taylor, Texas, plant, the deal could revive the project that has faced delays amid Samsung's struggles to retain and win major customers. 'Samsung agreed to allow Tesla to assist in maximizing manufacturing efficiency. This is a critical point, as I will walk the line personally to accelerate the pace of progress. And the fab is conveniently located not far from my house,' Musk said on his social media platform. Samsung had earlier announced the $16.5 billion chip supply deal without naming the client, saying the customer had requested confidentiality about the details of the deal, which will run through the end of 2033. Three sources briefed about the matter told Reuters that Tesla was the customer for the deal. The deal comes as Samsung faces mounting pressure in the race to produce artificial intelligence chips, where it trails rivals such as TSMC and SK Hynix. This lag has weighed heavily on its profits and share price. Samsung, the world's top memory chip maker, also makes logic chips designed by customers through its foundry business. Pak Yuak, an analyst at Kiwoom Securities, said the latest deal would help reduce losses at Samsung's foundry business, which he estimated exceeded 5 trillion won ($3.63 billion) in the first half of the year. Analysts say Samsung has struggled with the defection of key clients to TSMC for advanced chips. TSMC counts Apple, Nvidia and Qualcomm among its customers. The Samsung-Tesla deal may also be significant for South Korea, which is seeking U.S. partnerships in chips and shipbuilding amid last-ditch efforts to reach a trade deal to eliminate or reduce potential 25% U.S. tariffs. Samsung is grappling to boost production yields of its latest 2-nanometer technology, but the order is unlikely to involve the cutting-edge tech, said Lee Min-hee, an analyst at BNK Investment & Securities. Samsung has been losing market share to TSMC in contract manufacturing, underscoring technological challenges the firm faces in mastering advanced chip manufacturing to attract clients like Apple and Nvidia, analysts said.
