Samsung's Galaxy S25 FE is coming into focus, and here's what to expect
The phone is expected to feature a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, Exynos 2400 chip, and 45W charging.
It looks like the selfie camera will be bumped to 12MP, and the device will weigh around 190g.
We've already got a pretty solid idea of what to expect from the Samsung Galaxy S25 FE, but the same leaker behind last week's RAM and storage leak is back with a more substantial spec dump. Let's look at what you'll be getting for your money.
In a new post on X, leaker Arsène Lupin shared a comprehensive hardware rundown for Samsung's next Fan Edition phone. A few of the details had already been rumored, such as the 6.7-inch AMOLED display at 120Hz and the Exynos 2400 chip. Still, we've now got reliable indications of things like 45W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, and a 4,500mAh battery.
The camera hardware looks largely unchanged, though the selfie cam has been bumped to 12MP. We'll have to wait and see if any actual photo quality improvements are in store. The same goes for the design — no sign yet of any big shake-up.
Other newly mentioned details include IP68 water resistance, Gorilla Glass Victus, and a 190g weight, which seems reasonable given the screen size. None of this is mind-blowing, but it does help paint a more complete picture of the phone, which is also expected to ship with One UI 8 out of the box.
The Galaxy S25 FE is expected to land sometime between late Q3 and early Q4, likely around early October if past launches are anything to go by. Unless Samsung has a few surprises left, this might be more of a refinement than a full refresh.

An upcoming phone could offer double the battery capacity of S25 Ultra
Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR HONOR is apparently working on a smartphone with a 10,000mAh battery. This would be double the capacity of the Galaxy S25 Ultra's battery and larger than some tablet batteries. It's highly likely that the phone won't offer a 10,000mAh battery if it launches in the EU. We're seeing more and more smartphones with huge batteries thanks to silicon-carbon battery tech. HONOR recently launched the HONOR Power, which packs an 8,000mAh battery. However, it looks like the company could step up with an upcoming phone. Leaker Digital Chat Station claimed on Weibo that HONOR has started testing a device with a 10,000mAh battery and a yet-to-be-released Dimensity 8500 processor. You can view the machine-translated screenshot of the post below. A 10,000mAh phone would have double the battery capacity of the Galaxy S25 Ultra (5,000mAh). It would also be significantly larger than the OnePlus 13 battery (6,000mAh). In fact, this would also be larger than some Android tablets like the Pixel Tablet (7,020mAh) and Galaxy Tab S10 FE (8,000mAh). Either way, a phone with a 10,000mAh battery would likely offer at least three full days of typical usage. Would you buy a phone with a 10,000mAh battery? 0 votes Yes, absolutely NaN % Maybe, if it's not too thick and heavy NaN % No, I wouldn't NaN % This wouldn't be the first phone with a 10,000mAh battery, as niche brands frequently offer rugged phones with larger batteries. However, these devices tend to be incredibly thick and heavy. By contrast, the previously released HONOR Power has an 8,000mAh battery but measures 7.98mm thin and weighs 209 grams. So we hope this new phone offers a similarly slim and light design. There's no word on a release timeline for this phone, but we hope to see a global release. Unfortunately, EU regulations mean that the device will likely see a huge drop in battery capacity if it comes to Europe. Follow

Dr. Li continued, 'In overseas markets, our electric motorcycles continued their steady recovery throughout the first half, in line with our overseas strategy. Meanwhile, sales in the micromobility segment softened due to ongoing geopolitical and economic uncertainties.' Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results Revenues reached RMB 1,255.7 million, representing a 33.5% increase year-over-year.

Share-based compensation was RMB 7.9 million, compared with RMB 5.4 million in the same period of 2024. Income tax benefit was RMB 12.5 million, compared with income tax expense of RMB 1.0 million in the same period of 2024. Net income was RMB 5.9 million, compared with net loss of RMB 24.9 million in the second quarter of 2024.

Expro Marks Major Milestone in International Expansion with First Fully Remote Five-Plug Cementing Operation in Saudi Arabia
HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aug 11, 2025-- Expro (NYSE:XPRO), a global energy services provider, has successfully delivered the world's first fully remote five-plug cementing operation in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, reinforcing its commitment to innovation, safety, and international growth within the well construction sector. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: Cement Technologies The milestone operation - executed using Expro's Generation-X™ Remote Plug Launcher (RPL) and proprietary SkyHook™ cement-line make-up device - marks a major step forward in the company's expansion into the Middle East. The fully automated solution enabled a complex, multi-stage cement job to be completed with zero red-zone entry or man-riding operations, setting a new industry benchmark for personnel safety and operational control. This breakthrough builds on Expro's first successful cementing job in the Kingdom, delivered in January. That initial operation laid the foundation for a rapid regional ramp-up, culminating in May's delivery of the five-plug job. Together, these achievements reflect a deliberate progression from strategic market entry to innovation leadership, demonstrating the proven scalability and reliability of Expro's cementing technologies in one of the world's most technically demanding operating environments. Jeremy Angelle, Vice President of Well Construction at Expro, said: 'Our entry into Saudi Arabia is more than just geographic expansion - it's about transforming cementing operations through advanced engineering. This breakthrough showcases our Generation-X and SkyHook technologies as world-class innovations that drive measurable safety and efficiency gains.' The complex five-plug stage-cementing operation was executed for a challenging 9-5/8' casing run in a high-pressure gas well - the longest of its kind in the field. Utilizing Expro's modular Generation-X™ RPL, all of the five downhole components were pre-loaded in a controlled shop environment and then remotely launched at the well site with precision. Expro's modular cement head allowed the operator to eliminate high-risk tasks at the rig site, significantly reducing rig time, and enhancing the overall well integrity through optimized cement placement and effective zonal isolation. Building on this momentum, additional deployments across the region have further validated the benefits of Expro's remote and wireless cementing technologies. In one case, the customer was able to displace cement through the top drive at up to 13 bpm, resulting in cleaner wellbores, faster transitions from casing to cementing, and reduced static wellbore time. Collectively, these case studies demonstrate how Expro's solutions enhance operational integrity and redefine safety standards, particularly in markets where reliability, repeatability, and HSE performance are critical. 'Both the Generation-X™ launcher and SkyHook™ system were designed with safety, control, and field adaptability in mind,' added Angelle. 'To see them deliver such strong results in a new region is a proud moment, and a signal of what's possible as we grow our well construction capabilities globally.' Expro continues to invest in expanding its presence in the Kingdom and beyond, with a clear focus on aligning with customer goals in the oil, gas, and geothermal markets. With proven success in Saudi Arabia and strong customer interest across the region, we believe that Expro's cementing product line is now well positioned for international adoption, bringing automation, safety, and cost efficiency to the forefront of well construction operations globally. Notes to Editors Working for clients across the well life cycle, Expro is a leading provider of energy services, offering cost-effective, innovative solutions and what the Company considers to be best-in-class safety and service quality.
