I wasn't looking for a foldable — until the Galaxy Z Fold 7 dropped a massive $300

Phone Arena13 hours ago
Having a foldable phone is more than just a trend — it's a serious productivity boost in your pocket. And when we talk about foldable devices, the latest Galaxy Z Fold 7 definitely deserves mentioning. It boasts an upgraded design, exceptional performance, and solid AI prowess. Best part? Amazon finally dropped a solid discount on it!About two weeks ago, I highlighted the e-commerce giant's first-time price cut. At the time, you could save $140 on select 512GB models. While a decent initial discount, this deal still made shoppers cough up over $1,900 for the premium Samsung phone. But now, you can grab either the 256GB or 512GB models for a massive $300 off.
$300 off (15%)
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 dropped to its lowest price so far on Amazon. For a limited time, the device is going for a solid $300 off its original price. The sale is available on both storage configurations in all colors, making it impossible to ignore. Act fast and save big while it lasts. Buy at Amazon Let me break it down: the base storage configuration is going for just under $1,700 instead of $2,000. The larger storage variant, on the other hand, will set you back about $1,820. Even though that's still a steep asking price, the device is definitely worth it. So, if you're looking to score a major bargain, I suggest you act fast. Plus, the Samsung Store doesn't offer straight-up discounts — you can only save by trading in an eligible device in good condition. Packing a larger 6.5-inch cover display, the new Android foldable finally lets you handle basic tasks — like typing a message — without constantly opening it. The main display has grown as well, and you're now looking at an 8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X panel, up from 7.6 inches on the Galaxy Z Fold 6.
On top of that, this Pixel 9 Pro Fold rival delivers incredible horsepower. With its Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip, it brings enough potential for even the most demanding apps. As if that's not enough, you're getting an advanced 200MP main camera on the rear and multiple Galaxy AI features to make your experience more seamless and intuitive. And with seven years of OS and security updates, the latest Samsung foldable remains safe and reliable for years. Needless to say, that makes the pricey smartphone an investment that pays off over time.
Bottom line: while I'm not currently looking for a new foldable, this limited-time $300 discount seriously tempts me. If you feel the same, I'd suggest you grab it, as this is a limited-time sale that might vanish soon.

Samsung Galaxy A17 5G review

While last year's Galaxy A16 5G brought a significant upgrade over the previous generation, this year's A17 5G's hardware upgrades are more modest, but still noteworthy. The Galaxy A17 5G is your second-cheapest option from the Samsung portfolio, making it an ideal entry-level solution for Samsung fans and Samsung even offers long software support with promised 6 years of major OS upgrades. Samsung Galaxy A17 5G specs at a glance: Body: 164.4x77.9x7.5mm, 192g; Glass front (Gorilla Glass Victus), plastic frame, glass fiber back; IP54 dust protected and water resistant (water splashes). 164.4x77.9x7.5mm, 192g; Glass front (Gorilla Glass Victus), plastic frame, glass fiber back; IP54 dust protected and water resistant (water splashes).

The new Galaxy A17 5G is now equipped with Gorilla Glass Victus protection on the front and a glass fiber back. The new materials have allowed Samsung to slim down the phone a bit and to shave off a few grams too. The camera hardware remains largely the same (now with OIS), and so does the battery hardware. It's still 5,000 mAh with 25W charging. The Galaxy A17 5G will likely be well-positioned in the US, where the entry-level solutions are scarce, but it will face some challenges in markets such as Europe and India. Let's take a deeper look at the Galaxy A17 5G. Unboxing the Samsung Galaxy A17 5G The phone comes in a standard retail box containing only the user manuals and a USB-C to USB-C cable. You will need to get your own charger separately, and if you are after the fastest charging speed possible, Samsung's own 25W charger is a cost-effective way to get an adapter that supports the required PPS profile.

Notion mail is now available on iOS to challenge how you manage your inbox

Months after its debut on the Mac, Notion has finally brought its AI-powered email client, Notion Mail, to the iPhone. This move brings another key piece of its productivity puzzle to mobile, fitting right alongside Notion Calendar and the main Notion app. The goal is clear: create one seamless, intelligent ecosystem for your entire workflow. Notion's big pitch is that this is "the inbox that thinks like you." In practice, this means using AI to automatically sort your incoming emails. You can teach it what's important, and it will organize and label things for you, which sounds great. But here's the first catch: you still need the Mac app to get that initial AI setup done, which is a bit of a strange limitation for a mobile-first world. Beyond the AI, the app includes some solid productivity features, like customizable swipe gestures for quick archiving and custom inbox views to help you focus. The rich text editor is also a nice touch, letting you compose emails that look a lot better than plain text. Notion Mail listed in the iOS App Store. | Image credit — App Store So, where does Notion Mail fit into the bigger picture? It's stepping into a crowded room, squaring up against heavyweights like Spark and Superhuman. While Superhuman is all about raw speed and keyboard shortcuts for power users willing to pay a premium, Notion Mail is playing a different game. Its main advantage is its deep integration with the rest of Notion. If you're already organizing your life in Notion, having your email client tie directly into that is a compelling reason to switch. From my perspective, having Notion Mail on my iPhone makes it a much more serious contender for my daily use. I tried it on the Mac and was genuinely impressed at first, but the pricing model gave me pause. The AI features are great until you hit the usage limit, at which point you have to subscribe to a paid Notion AI plan. That's the real kicker. The convenience of having it on my phone might be enough to lure me back in, but the question remains whether the long-term cost is justified for features built on top of a free service like Gmail. Notion Mail is now available globally, connects directly to your Gmail account, and is free to download from the App Store. It's definitely worth a look, especially if you're already a fan of the Notion ecosystem. Good news everyone! Over the past year we've been working on an exciting passion project of ours and we're thrilled to announce it will be ready to release in just a few short months. "Iconic Phones: Revolution at Your Fingertips" is a must-have coffee table book for every tech-head that will bring you on a journey to relive the greatest technological revolution of the 21st century.

Verizon is tricking customers into voluntarily giving up their generous discounts for lower ones

Verizon —Sregtur, Reddit user, August 2025 And if that wasn't enough to anger customers,has the nerve to email them that their bill has been lowered, even though their bill has effectively gone up. —EnvironmentalLog1766, Reddit user, August 2025 Verizon Receive the latest Verizon news Subscribe By subscribing you agree to our terms and conditions and privacy policy Verizon Verizon Verizon Verizon Consideringwas allegedly going to remove loyalty discounts for all customers, having a lower discount is better than receiving no price cut at some users may find even more infuriating is the mixed signals thatis sending. The company has so far made no official comment regarding its presumed revised discount strategy. That might be because the company itself may be undecided and doesn't want to announce anything until it has decided what course of action it customer says that something similar happened with them last year, and they were able to get their previous discount restored by complaining incessantly to. They still ended up leaving as the experience left a bitter taste in their it's totally up toto decide whether or not it wants to offer discounts, it should be transparent about its decisions, especially those that involve lowering discounts and making it look like the customer agreed to company is seemingly also planning to introduce a new monthly fee that wasn't previously there for some been paying for its unpopular decisions by losing customers, but the company doesn't seem to care about letting go of users finicky about price.
