Honor Magic V Flip 2's display can withstand 350,000 folds, big battery confirmed
The Honor Magic V Flip 2 is going to be announced in a few days, and the company is hyping up the crowd with a post on Weibo, praising the device's durable UTG display. Moreover, Honor posted another teaser confirming the impressive battery and charging specs.

The post briefly goes through the new display tech called UTG (Ultra Thin Glass) used for flexible OLED panels. However, if you've been around in the smartphone industry for the last few years, you'd know that this isn't exactly new tech. One of the first Samsung foldables featured UTG, and it's unclear from Honor's post alone what's different in the Magic V Flip 2.
In any case, the teaser claims that the new display can withstand 350,000 folds, or in other words, at least 5 years of normal use. Even after the 350,000 folds test, the panel's crease was no bigger than 50µm.
A leak from yesterday suggests the V Flip 2 will bring a solid 200MP + 50MP camera setup along with a whopping 5,500 mAh battery and 80W fast wired charging. The teaser today confirms the big battery and the speedy wired charging, but also adds 50W fast wireless charging to the specs sheet.

Oppo Find X9 Ultra could have the same main camera sensor as the Galaxy S26 Ultra
Vlad, 16 August 2025 The upcoming Oppo Find X9 Ultra has already been rumored to sport a new 200 MP main camera, and today prolific Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station has shed light on which sensor it will use. It turns out it's the one that Sony is developing - with 200 MP resolution and a 1/1.1" type size. That's not quite 1-inch type, but pretty close. Oppo Find X8 Ultra Intriguingly, Samsung has been rumored to have chosen this exact sensor to use in the Galaxy S26 Ultra's main camera. If all of these rumors pan out, we'll have an interesting situation next year when both the Galaxy S26 Ultra and the Find X9 Ultra arrive, as they will compete against each other while using the same main camera sensor. Well, in theory at least - if the Find X9 Ultra isn't officially sold outside of China (and that's definitely not outside the realm of possibility), then given Samsung's minuscule market share in China, the two won't really compete head-to-head anywhere. Anyway, the Find X9 Ultra will launch after the Chinese New Year (which falls on February 17). DCS says it might arrive a little bit sooner than its predecessor, which was unveiled on April 10, so if we were to bet we'd go with an unveiling sometime in March. Source (in Chinese)

So Apple is just discarding two heavily marketed features of the iPhone, what gives?
There have been two very heavily marketed features on the iPhone for the last 2-3 years, and Apple is apparently getting rid of both of them. What's worse is that I actually quite liked both of these characteristics of the iPhone, even though one of them has been a very contentious change. Titanium looks great for phones. | Image credit — PhoneArena Yep, Apple is ditching titanium with the iPhone 17. It's not like this was a must-have feature for flagship phones, but it was appreciated nonetheless. I don't think I'm alone in saying that the titanium iPhone models looked stunning, like a truly premium piece of gear. At least we still have the Galaxy Ultra phones, unless Samsung is planning to ditch titanium for the Galaxy S26 Ultra as well. I truly believed that titanium was here to stay, to distinguish the flagship offerings from the rest. And, on a very minor note, titanium sounds so much cooler than aluminum, glass, or stainless steel. But what truly bugs me is remembering how much Apple focused on the titanium finish when it was first announced. The people announcing the iPhone 15 Pro couldn't stop mentioning just how beautiful the new phones looked, and I agreed. But now, just like that, we're ditching titanium this year. The reasoning behind this decision is likely quite complex and not just a change of heart. Some suggest that manufacturing costs are to blame, and that makes sense because Apple is trying to make its phones as affordable as possible with the threat of tariffs looming over it. Perhaps it's the lack of titanium that has made it possible to not increase the cost of the iPhone 17 too much this titanium isn't the only heavily marketed feature Apple is getting rid of. Apple was really proud of the Dynamic Island. | Image credit — PhoneArena Who remembers when Apple first announced the Dynamic Island? This was one of Apple's more contentious changes, I remember a lot of the internet clowning on it back then. However, I thought that it was a pretty clever way to get around a problem that existed in smartphones back then, and still does today. See, every phone manufacturer had started to introduce punch holes or notches into their phones. Even the cheapest budget phones made for low income regions featured a notch at the very least. This was being done to minimize bezel thickness, and because I suppose it was just the new thing to do. Apple, who I blame for popularizing the notch in the first place, came up with a pretty clever solution: the Dynamic Island. Immediately, the iPhone was recognizable everywhere, and it wasn't just another phone with a water drop notch. Even better, the Dynamic Island actually served a integration with the Dynamic Island is superb, when it works of course, and it usually always does. And, personally speaking, I just like the pill-shaped cutout much more than a water drop notch, or a circular punch hole. But guess what, Apple is ditching the Dynamic Island in favor of a punch hole design. This won't happen until the iPhone 18, but many reports have said that it is happening. Apparently, the punch hole iPhone 18 will bridge the gap between the iPhone 17 that has a Dynamic Island, and the cutout-free 20th anniversary iPhone Pro. But…why not just stick with the Dynamic Island? Has Apple forgotten how much it showed it off back when the company first announced it? Not to mention that the iPhone 18 will just look like any other phone from the front. Apple is already making this mistake with the iPhone 17 redesign, and I wouldn't fault some people for confusing it for a Google Pixel 9, especially the iPhone 17 Air. Suffice to say, I just don't understand why Apple would abandon heavily marketed features like this out of the blue. It honestly just makes the company look like it has no direction or sense of self, and is just throwing random things at a wall to see what sticks.
