Samsung tri fold phone aka G Fold display details tipped
Samsung's long-rumoured tri-fold smartphone, often referred to as the Galaxy G Fold in the rumour mill, has been in the news for quite some time. After launching several generations of traditional foldables, Samsung is now expected to finally introduce a tri-fold device, possibly sometime later this year. The latest leak reveals new details about its display size. According to Digital Chat Station, Samsung's tri-fold display could measure around 9.9 inches when fully unfolded. This would make it slightly smaller than Huawei's Mate XT, which offers a 10.2-inch display. advertisementWhile fans are eagerly waiting for an official announcement, there is still a lot that remains unknown about the Galaxy G Fold. Some leaks suggest that the phone may not be launched globally, at least in the beginning. Samsung might first introduce it in selected markets like China and South Korea, before deciding if it will expand to other regions. This would be different from its usual launch strategy for foldable phones, which are typically available in many countries soon after launch. The tri-fold design is expected to use a dual inner-folding mechanism, allowing the device to fold inward on both sides. This could offer better protection for the main display when compared to Huawei's outward-folding design.Another important detail that recently surfaced is about the device's charging speed. Reports suggest that the Galaxy G Fold might support only around 23W to 24W charging speeds, which is quite slow compared to other premium phones today. Many smartphones now offer much faster charging speeds, even up to 100W or 120W. Samsung has always been cautious when it comes to fast charging, and it looks like the trend will continue with the Galaxy G Fold. advertisement
In terms of size and weight, Samsung's Galaxy G Fold is expected to be similar to Huawei's Mate XT, although it might be slightly thicker. The dimensions are rumoured to be 9.96 inches when unfolded, with a height of about 6.54 inches. The device is also expected to support the S Pen, as some patent filings have shown a possible slot for the stylus. Pricing will likely be on the higher side. Huawei's Mate XT launched at nearly $2,800 (around Rs 2.4 lakh at the time), and Samsung's G Fold could be priced similarly, making it one of the most expensive smartphones available.Even though Samsung has not officially confirmed anything yet, many expect the company to at least tease the Galaxy G Fold at its Unpacked event in July, alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7.

Xiaomi 16 leak reveals screen size and massive 7,000mAh battery
Even though we're still months away from the rumoured launch of the Xiaomi 16 series, new leaks are already giving us a pretty good idea of what to expect. The phone is expected to be the successor to the Xiaomi 15 — a device that launched in India just a few months ago. And yet, fresh information about its features and hardware continues to surface online. The latest scoop comes from tipster Digital Chat Station, who claims that the Xiaomi 16 will feature a 6.3x-inch display. We speculate this could be the same 6.36-inch AMOLED panel used on the Xiaomi 15. The leak also brings more clarity on the phone's battery — and it looks like we're in for a serious leaks had hinted at a battery larger than 6,500mAh, and now Digital Chat Station has specifically mentioned a 7,000mAh cell under the hood. That's a significant jump compared to most flagships on the market today. To put that into perspective — the just-released OnePlus 13s already features a 6.3-inch screen paired with a 6,000mAh battery. So, Xiaomi going even bigger with battery capacity by the end of the year doesn't feel far-fetched. Technology is clearly moving fast, and battery innovation — especially with silicon carbon cells — seems to be gaining momentum. It's high time Apple and Samsung also joined the for performance, the Xiaomi 16 is expected to be powered by Qualcomm's next-gen Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 chip, which will likely be announced during the Snapdragon Summit later this September. This would make it the direct successor to the current Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC, which powers the Xiaomi 15 and many other current Android flagships. While there's a chance that Xiaomi could even potentially use its own Xring 01 chip — the same one that's in the Xiaomi 15s Pro and Pad 7 Ultra — it seems more likely the company will stick with Qualcomm's top-end silicon for this The camera system on the Xiaomi 16 is also said to feature three 50-megapixel sensors — a primary lens, an ultra-wide lens, and a telephoto lens with macro support. Nothing wildly different from the Xiaomi 15 on paper, but we'll likely see improvements in processing and in all, the Xiaomi 16 looks like it'll be a compact flagship phone with some serious battery muscle — possibly the biggest in its class if this 7,000mAh rumour turns out to be true. If Xiaomi follows the same release pattern as last year, we can expect the Xiaomi 16, 16 Pro, and 16 Ultra to be unveiled in China by October, with an India launch likely around March tuned to India Today Tech for all the latest on the Xiaomi 16 series.
