vivo S30 launch date set, Xiaomi 15S Pro official with Xring O1 SoC, Week 21 in review
vivo will unveil the S30 and S30 Pro mini on May 29. The China-bound series will come in a variety of colors - pink, yellow, blue, and black. The S30 could have a 6,500mAh battery, while the Pro mini will get a Dimensity 9400e SoC. Huawei's MateBook Fold Ultimate has the body of a 13-inch laptop, but is actually an 18-inch foldable. The bottom part of the display can display a virtual on-screen keyboard (or whatever you want). The laptop weighs just 1.16kg, and is 14.9mm thick when closed (7.3mm when opened). The display is quite impressive – it has 4:3 aspect ratio when opened (3,296 x 2,472px) and 3:2 when in laptop form (2,472 x 1,648px resolution of the 'display'). It's a dual-layer OLED LTPO panel that pumps out a powerful 1,600 nits and has 1,440Hz high-frequency PWM dimming. The dual-layer structure reduces power usage by 30% while tripling the expected life of the panel. It is protected by a non-Newtonian fluid and a carbon fiber support layer. The Huawei MateBook Pro also launches on June 6, starting at CNY 8,000 ($1,110/€985/₹95,000) for the 24GB/512GB model. Xiaomi announced the 15S Pro, which premiered its new in-house chipset - the Xring O1. The SoC is the real story, as the phone is otherwise identical to the 15 Pro. Developed and designed by Xiaomi and fabbed on TSMC's second-generation N3E 3nm process, Xring O1 features a ten-core CPU cluster with 2x Cortex-X925 prime cores clocked @ 3.9GHz, 6x Cortex-A725 performance cores between 1.9-3.4 GHz and 2x Cortex-A520 efficiency cores @ 1.8 GHz. The CPU is joined by a 16-core ARM Immortalis-G925 GPU and a 6-core NPU rated at 44 TOPS. Xiaomi revealed that its flagship SoC scored over 3 million points on the AnTuTu benchmarking platform, edging out the Snapdragon 8 Elite. Xring O1 also managed over 3,000 single core points and 9,000 multi-core points in Geekbench 6, with the multi-core score edging out Apple's A18 Pro. Xring O1 supports the latest LPDDR5T RAM, UFS 4.1 storage, USB 3.2 Gen2 connectivity, Wi-Fi 7, and a custom 3-core Xiaomi ISP. We will also see a tablet, audio wearables, and a fast-charging power bank. You can use a virtual keyboard or a super-slim 5mm wireless keyboard. The laptop itself is super thin, measuring only 14.9mm when closed. Xiaomi's first flagship chipset outbenchmarked the Snapdragon 8 Elite. The Xiaomi 16 is coming in September with the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 SoC. We saw the first CAD-based renders of Xiaomi's next flagship, and it appears similar to its predecessor. The Xiaomi 16 is apparently going to have an enormous 6,800 mAh battery with support for 100W wired charging. It's also claimed to have the best screen for a device of its size. Infinix's Hot series will continue with the slimness trend - the Hot 60 Pro+ will be under 6mm, and will be the thinnest curved phone, Per Ice Universe. We put the new vivo X200 Ultra against its predecessor in a stills camera battle. The new phone has an interesting new 35mm camera, a superior 14mm ultrawide, and a slightly improved 85mm zoom. Just how different is a 35mm lens from a 23mm lens? It will be unveiled in late September. The device is precisely 5.95 mm thin. The OnePlus 13s will launch in India on June 5. The phone is being launched in India in three colors, two of which we are familiar with from the OnePlus 13T. These include the Black Velvet and the Pink Satin. India, however, gets an additional exclusive color called Green Silk but does not get the gray color of the 13T. The green and pink models have a new soft touch finish that is dubbed Velvet Glass. No word on pricing just yet. The event will see the Pad 7 Ultra tablet with the same chip. Will feature an exclusive Green Silk colorway for the Indian market. Almost a month in advance of its predecessor.

Amazon's foldable laptop leak shifts Apple's rumored launch window
Huawei MateBook Fold. | Image credit – Huawei These past few days, we got a glimpse of what's coming soon – not way down the road, but stuff that feels like the near future. If you caught the Google I/O keynote, you probably saw what I mean: new AI tools for videos, smooth real-time translation, even something called Artificial Pokémon Intelligence and a bunch more cool on the hardware front, Huawei just dropped its MateBook Fold laptop, which has a folding screen. When open, you get a massive 18-inch display, but fold it up and it is about the size of a 13-inch laptop. Apple might be cooking up something similar and now, another big player could be jumping in. Amazon is reportedly developing its own foldable laptop. This project hasn't officially kicked off yet, but if all goes well, it could hit mass production by late 2026 or 2027. If that timeline holds, Amazon might actually beat Apple to market with this type of device. Apple's competitors in the large-sized foldable device market may not be limited to Huawei. My research indicates that Amazon is also internally developing a similar product, which has not yet officially kicked off. If development progresses as planned, it is projected to enter… — 郭明錤 (Ming-Chi Kuo) (@mingchikuo) May 20, 2025 According to this latest leak, Apple's foldable laptop/tablet plans seem to be pushed back, now expected around 2027 or 2028, even though earlier rumors suggested a late 2026 or early 2027 course, Apple rumors are almost always a mixed bag, so nothing's set in stone. But one thing's clear: Apple is definitely working on a foldable laptop. With Amazon jumping in, too, foldable laptops could really be the next big other details have leaked yet and one big question is what operating system Amazon will choose – Windows or Fire OS? The same goes for Apple – will it run macOS or iPadOS? We've got a while to wait before seeing these in real life, but expect more news as the timeline moves closer. Huawei, for example, went with its own HarmonyOS 5 for its foldable laptop. This is actually the first time Huawei is using its in-house OS on a PC. Originally, HarmonyOS launched on Android devices, but after losing access to Microsoft Windows back in March due to US sanctions, Huawei shifted to using its own system for foldable laptops like Huawei's new model – and what Apple and Amazon's versions might end up looking like – definitely look sleek and stylish in pictures. But I'm not totally sold on how practical one will be – especially when it's folded. The full open-screen mode with a separate keyboard seems promising, but when folded, the software has to be flawless to avoid weird glitches from accidental touches or other issues. I'll need to try it myself to be sure, but for now, I'm still a bit on the fence about foldable laptops. What do you think?
