vivo releases more X Fold5 teaser images and a hands-on video
vivo is unveiling the X Fold5 in China on June 25, while its global launch may be coming on July 10. Ahead of the full announcement, the company has continued its teaser campaign on Weibo, where it has today released a bunch of new official images of the phone. There's even a hands-on video now doing the rounds in China, here it is embedded for your viewing pleasure. Obviously, it's in Chinese, but you don't need to understand the audio in order to appreciate what you're seeing, we'd wager. Alongside the images and the video, vivo is teasing the fact that the X Fold3 from last year still holds the record for being the lightest book-style foldable, and the X Fold5 will break that record. Thus it will weigh under 219g. That's slab-style phone territory. vivo X Fold5 official images The Fold5 is also said to be thinner than its predecessor, but despite that it will pack the largest capacity battery in any foldable, at 6,000 mAh. The battery has 12% silicon content and can operate at even -30°C. The hinge is tested to work in -20°C, and multitasking is promised to get a boost thanks to vivo's Atomic Workbench, a desktop-like experience. More vivo X Fold5 official images The X Fold5 will also be the first Android phone to seamlessly integrate into the Apple ecosystem, and this is aimed specifically at iPhone users who want a folding phone but don't want to leave Apple's walled garden. And now they won't have to. A vivo exec says using the X Fold5 side-by-side with an iPhone is totally possible, as is replacing the iPhone altogether. Source (in Chinese) | Via

Samsung Galaxy F36 surfaces in the Google Play Console, here's what it looks like
Samsung is working on the Galaxy F36, and today it's been spotted in the Google Play Console. The listing brings with it the image you can see below, as well as a few specs. The F36 comes with a waterdrop notch screen, and an oval camera island housing three sensors, two of them in another oval of their own. The LED flash array is to the right. Overall it's a very Samsung-esque design, and the integration of all the cameras into one big island has become a staple for devices that aren't flagships. The phone's screen has 1080x2340 resolution and 450 ppi pixel density. The F36 is powered by Samsung's Exynos 1380 SoC, paired with 6GB of RAM. The device will launch running Android 15 with One UI 7 on top, even though Google has already finalized Android 16. Google Play Console listings strongly imply that the Galaxy F36 will be identical to the Galaxy M36, which was spotted in the Geekbench database in April rocking the same Exynos chipset. These are both likely to become official very soon, perhaps even by the end of the month. Via
