If you're planning on buying a Galaxy Z Flip 7 , how closely have you been paying attention to the rumored specs of the phone? One area where the clamshell foldable might contain a surprise is under the hood, where the homegrown Exynos 2500 might be found. The 3nm Exynos 2500 application processor was supposed to be employed on Galaxy S25 and Galaxy S25+ models in most markets except for the U.S., China, and Canada.

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 (SM-F766B) should feature the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy AP. So why is Samsung using its Exynos chip for the? After all, the Galaxy Z Flip 3, Flip 4, Flip 5, and Flip 6 have been the most popular foldable phones worldwide over the last four years, and the Exynos chips have been known to overheat, not perform as powerfully as Snapdragon APs, and be less energy efficient than Qualcomm's chips.

Supposedly, Samsung doesn't want to continue to rely on Qualcomm as much as it has. And there is the cost savings that Samsung will be able to take advantage of by using its own in-house chipset built by its own foundry.
According to a tweet from Abhishek Yadav, the Exynos 2500 AP produced a GPU OpenCL score of 18,601 . That puts it in line with the OpenCL scores generated by the Snapdragon 8 Elite and the MediaTek 9400+. That sounds like good news for those interested in Samsung's upcoming clamshell foldable. On the other hand, the CPU scores were not as good, with single-core and multi-core scores of 2,313 and 7,965, respectively.

Those scores only bring the Exynos 2500 in line with the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 , which is one generation behind the Exynos 2500 AP. By the way, another tweet from Abhishek Yadav shows that the lower-pricedFE (SM-F761B) will have the Exynos 2400 under the hood . That AP had a less impressive OpenCL score of 12,890.

Apple releases iOS 26 Beta 3 which fixes a major iPhone issue and adds new features

Those of you riding on the iOS 26 beta track should know that iOS 26 Beta 3 has been disseminated by Apple. If you're subscribed to the Apple Beta Software Program you can install this update by going to Settings > General > Software Update and follow the directions. This is actually the third developer beta release of iOS 26 , but you don't have to be a developer to install it. The public beta for iOS 26 will begin in the middle of the current month. The update takes care of a major bug that prevented ringtones from working when someone called affected iPhone units. This happened to my iPhone 15 Pro Max and with the update, thankfully this bug has been exterminated. Apple releases iOS 26 Beta 3. | Image credit-PhoneArena One new feature found in the beta uses Visual Intelligence to recognize screenshots. When you look at a screenshot, two buttons at the bottom of the page, "Ask" and "Image Search," show up in the bottom left and right corners respectively. "Ask" let's you ask a question about the screenshot on your screen. Image search uses any photo found on the screenshot to search for further information that might be relevant to the screenshot. Visual Intelligence now recognizes screenshots after installing the iOS 26 Beta 3. | Image credit-PhoneArena Apple has added more color options for the default iOS wallpaper. Usually offered in multiple color options, previous iOS 26 beta releases offered the wallpaper in blue only. With the update, the default wallpaper is now available in Shadow, Dusk, Sky, and Halo. New colors for the iOS 26 default wallpaper. | Image credit-PhoneArena Improvements have also been made to the battery life of iPhone units running the iOS 26 beta. Certain models also have stopped overheating and lagging once the new beta version was installed. The stable version of iOS 26 should be ready in September, around the time that Apple releases the new iPhone 17 line. Until then, you can expect to see each new beta release introduce some new features for the iPhone along with some patches for serious bugs. We tell you all of the time that losing important features is the risk one takes when installing beta software, especially when it is a major OS release like iOS 26 . Losing the ringtone for incoming calls is pretty serious, which is why we usually warn you not to use your daily driver when installing beta software. After approximately one week, those affected by this bug will now hear their ringtone when receiving a call. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Apple might redesign the iPhone 17's front after all

Among them was a mention of the Dynamic Island, which, according to a machine translation, may feature a brand-new UI. Do you think the Dynamic Island should be smaller?

That's far from the first time we've heard about such changes on theseries, first heard of a smaller Dynamic Island late last year. Initially, rumor had it that the changes would only apply to the iPhone 17 Pro Max . However, in January, that rumor was debunked by Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who claimed the size of the Dynamic Island would remain largely unchanged across Apple's 2025 to February of this year, and Digital Chat Station was insisting on a smaller Dynamic Island for the. The leaker then claimed Apple may use metalens technology for the Face ID system to shrink the size of the display's opening.

TikTok is apparently developing a new app for the US market

TikTok is reportedly working on developing a separate app just for the US market, in order to comply with the country's legislation requiring it to either sell its business in the US or face a ban. The new app is allegedly going to be released on September 5, and US TikTok users will have to switch to it in order to continue using the service. The 'old' app, the one currently in use, will be removed from US app stores when the new one launches and will then stop working entirely around next March. Obviously, if this pans out there will be plenty of notices in the existing app telling people to switch before that deadline. It's very much unclear how this is connected to the US government's repeated threats to ban TikTok unless it's sold. The report says there's a connection, but doesn't go into any more details. In the meantime, US President Trump has announced that a "group of very wealthy people" is going to buy TikTok's US operations from ByteDance, the Chinese company which owns the platform. We still don't know who these people are, but Trump promised that will change later this month. The deal will most likely require some sort of approval from the Chinese government, since ByteDance is based over there. Whether that will be forthcoming is anyone's guess. Source
