We finally know what the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will look like, and it’s hard not to be enamored with its Gameboy SP vibes. The Z Flip 7 will have a 3.6-inch cover display that opens to a 6.8-inch internal display, making it officially larger than its predecessor. It’s a welcome bump in size, although the Z Flip 7 is still smaller than other flip phones on the market.

The images come from an official CAD render leak for the Z Flip 7, first obtained by Android Headlines. While these leaks don’t confirm the device’s internal specs, they do make it easier to make educated guesses based on what we see.

Let’s start with the cameras. Dual cameras grace the cover, while a punch hole camera sits at the top-center of the interior.  The Galaxy Z Flip 7 will most likely use the same configuration as the Flip 6, with a 50MP primary camera and a 12MP ultra wide. It’s possible that Samsung will upgrade the sensors, even if the resolution remains the same — but not even the flagship Galaxy S25 saw significant camera upgrades, so it’s best not to hold your breath.

EXCLUSIVE BREAKING LEAK: Samsung's GALAXY Z Flip 7 LEAKED Design REVEALED!

The internal screen crease looks less prominent, although that could also be due to the quality of the render. When fully open, the crease seems all but invisible, the hinge the only indication of its location. That lines up with other leaks, although the tipsters (like PandaFlash X) say the crease isn’t gone, just significantly diminished. They also suggest it will come with a more durable hinge — a step in the right direction for Samsung, whose hinges have proven to be a weak point on the phones.

Rumors have ping-ponged between a Qualcomm and Exynos chip for the internals, although the consensus in more recent leaks points towards the Exynos 2500 SoC. That’s not confirmed, however, so don’t take it as fact until Samsung reveals the specs.

We expect to see the phone arrive with 12GB of RAM and a choice between 256 and 512GB of storage, as well as a slate of Galaxy AI features. As for price, the Z Flip 7 will most likely hold firm with a starting price around $1,100.

You can expect to see the Z Flip 7 — and the Z Fold 7 — hit shelves sometime in July or August, with more information emerging as the launch date nears.

iOS 27’s Liquid Glass slider looks simple, but it’s more useful than I expected
Text, Document, Business Card

Let's be honest: few iOS design changes have sparked as much debate as Liquid Glass. When Apple first introduced it with iOS 26, the internet immediately split into two camps. Some people loved the fresh, translucent look, while others couldn't stand it and felt it made parts of the interface harder to read. I happened to be firmly in the first camp. At the time, I was using an iPhone 14 Pro Max, and installing the update was one of the first things I did. I loved how the new design made iOS feel more modern and dynamic. The transparency effects gave the interface a sense of depth, making the entire experience feel fresh again.

That said, it's easy to understand why not everyone felt the same way. After months of feedback, screenshots, hot takes, and endless debates online, Apple eventually responded by giving users more control. Instead of forcing everyone into the same look, it introduced options that let people choose between a clearer glass effect and a more tinted appearance. With iOS 27, Apple is putting the Liquid Glass debate completely in your hands. A new slider lets you customize the effect exactly the way you want it, whether you prefer a crystal-clear look or something easier on the eyes. Here's what it does and how to make the most of it on your iPhone.

Apple users are being targeted by a familiar tech support scam
Apple users face a new wave of fake iPhone and iCloud security warnings

AI has made online scams harder to spot by making deepfakes, voice cloning, and fake messages more realistic. Even so, the old tech support scam is still catching victims. For years, fraudsters often posed as Microsoft support workers. Now, reports suggest many are shifting their attention to Apple users.

Consumers are reporting a rise in fake “Apple High Alert” messages that claim an iPhone, iCloud account, or Apple ID has been compromised. These messages are designed to make people panic and react quickly before they can stop to check whether the warning is real.

A better dictation system is already on your iPhone. Apple just didn't switch it on.
Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

If you have an iPhone 17 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max, or iPhone Air running iOS 27 beta, you have a meaningfully better dictation system on your device right now. 

However, Apple did not turn it on by default, and most users have no idea it is there.
