Galaxy S26 Ultra's updated design leaks in new render

Not only that, but the upcoming Ultra will be slightly wider and taller than its predecessor (162.8 x 77.6mm) while also weighing slightly less than the current Ultra's 218 grams. The tipster shared a render of how the S26 Ultra might look. We can spot the updated camera island, which is carrying three of the four camera modules.
This would be a big change for the Galaxy S Ultra series, as the past four iterations all feature camera cutouts instead of an island formation. Speaking of cameras, UniverseIce believes the S26 Ultra is getting an updated 200MP main sensor with a larger aperture alongside a new 3x telephoto lens and a wider aperture on the 5x periscope module.
Samsung is also expected to bring a new 6.9-inch AMOLED display featuring a Color-on-Emitter (CoE) depolarizer layer. This should offer improved color accuracy and brightness output while also drawing less power. CoE OLED panels integrate the color filter directly into the light-emitting layer. The new leak also suggests the S26 Ultra is getting an updated third-generation anti-reflective glass treatment. Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra
The other big upgrade? Faster wired charging. The new report suggests 60W speeds which will be a modest yet welcome update over the 45W capabilities of the S24 Ultra and its predecessors. Sadly, the battery capacity is once again rumored to remain at 5,000mAh.

Samsung Galaxy A17 4G and A17 5G listed in Europe, here are the prices
Samsung's upcoming Galaxy A17 has been spotted in some certifications recently, and then it was outed in leaked renders. Today, it's gone one step further, being listed by a European retailer. The listings don't give us any more images, but do reveal the pricing for both the 4G and 5G models, as well as (at least some of) their colorways. The Galaxy A17 4G costs €289.90 with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and will be offered in black, gray, and light blue. There should be lower-end options too, with less RAM and storage, by the way. The Galaxy A17 5G is listed at €319.90 with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, and this one comes in black, blue, and gray. Clearly these are not exhaustive listings though (once again, keep in mind that there will most likely be other RAM/storage combos on offer as well), so we assume more colors could also be launched. According to past rumors and leaks, the Galaxy A17 5G will be powered by Samsung's Exynos 1380 SoC, and will have a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 25W wired charging. It will run Android 15 when it launches, with One UI 7 on top. Its screen could be a 6.7-inch AMOLED panel with FHD+ resolution, while for cameras expect a 50 MP main with OIS, a 5 MP ultrawide, and a 2 MP macro. The Galaxy A17 4G will be powered by the MediaTek Helio G99 SoC. It too will run Android 15. Source (in Italian) | Via

This is the shocking price Apple pays for Trump's tariffs
Apple might be ready to pay big for AI companies, but it's already spending a lot on Trump's tariffs. During the company's latest earnings call, Apple CEO Tim Cook said that tariff spending could surpass $1.1 billion during the September quarter. In March 2025, during the previous earnings call, Cook predicted that Apple would spend $900 million on tariffs in the quarter that ended in June. On yesterday's call, he said that the company has spent around $800 million during the June quarter and expects a cost of over $1 billion in the current quarter, reports The Verge. That would add an extra $1.9 billion spent on tariffs in only six months. Tim Cook , CEO of Apple, July 31, 2025 President Trump's sweeping tariffs affected virtually all Apple devices sold in the US. Most of the iPhones sold in America are manufactured in India, while Macs, iPads, and Apple Watches are made in Vietnam, according to Tim Cook .Earlier this year, Trump threatened to impose a 'tariff of at least 25%' on every iPhone not built in the US. The president has long been pushing Apple to move some of its production to the US. Tim Cook was careful to clarify that the predictions might be imprecise. He stressed that 'many factors could change, including tariff rates.' Recent rumors claimed that Apple is planning to increase the price of all iPhone 17 models by $50. The company's goal would be to offset the added cost caused by tariffs. While Samsung hasn't been mentioned by President Trump, it's also being affected by tariffs, albeit not as heavily as Apple. Samsung moved the production of its Galaxy phones out of China long ago. Apple's stellar financial results are proof that tariffs and the related price increases are unlikely to affect the company. Given how long the iPhone's price has remained practically unchanged, I don't think a $50 increase would scandalize anyone. Unless tariffs spiral completely out of control, Apple should be fine. The company sells tens of millions of iPhones per quarter, so the modest increase wouldn't only offset the $2 billion bill but also turn it into a profit gain. That's why I wouldn't worry about Apple.
