Galaxy S27 leaks hint at a new fourth model and Ultra’s redesigned camera housing

New CAD renders suggest Samsung’s Galaxy S27 line may add a fourth model and bring a fresh look to the Ultra’s camera housing; the Ultra is expected to keep its dimensions, S Pen holster, and bottom-left speaker, while the base S27, S27 Plus, and S27 Pro reportedly relocate the speaker to the right. Some renders show the Pro with a broader, Ultra-like camera housing, but this could be an error or unconfirmed—更多 details are awaited.

Tablets Ended the Netbook Era

Netbooks emerged around 2007 as cheap, ultra-portable devices for internet access, but by 2013 major makers like Acer and Asus stopped producing them as smartphones and tablets—especially the iPad—captured user demand; netbooks were underpowered (often around 1GB RAM and Atom CPUs), could not compete with modern laptops, and the line between netbooks and notebooks blurred, prompting a pivot to notebooks and tablets.

Pixel 11 Deals Spark Big Trade-Ins and Gift Cards on Amazon

Amazon is rolling out a wave of Pixel 11 series deals with sizable trade-in bonuses and gift cards: Pixel 11 ($324 trade-in), Pixel 11 Pro/Pro XL ($425 trade-in), and Pixel 11 Pro Fold ($425 trade-in plus a choice of a $350 Amazon Gift Card or a Pixel Watch 5). The Pixel Watch 5 itself has no perks. Samsung’s Galaxy A37 and A57 receive discounts, Nothing Phone (3) and (4a) Pro show price cuts, and Galaxy Z Fold8/Ultra/Flip8 bundles combine gift cards with trade-ins. Look for the Galaxy S26 FE reveal next Thursday, with no strong offers yet for the S25 FE.

Google Pixel 11: Camera Looks Expands Pre-Capture Photo Control

Google’s Pixel 11 introduces Camera Looks, a suite of pre-capture photo styles (Editorial, Velvet, Classic, Digi, Black Tie, Minimal) that let users tailor how images are processed before capture, moving beyond simple filters. The feature mirrors Apple’s Photographic Styles and could push Apple to expand its own options, with the piece arguing for a coveted “Minimal” style to preserve a more authentic look.

Z Flip8 lands in pink with brighter displays and modest upgrades

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip8 arrives with a new pink color and modest upgrades over the Flip7: newer silicon (SD 8 Elite Gen 5 in the US/Canada/China or Exynos 2600 elsewhere), brighter inner display (up to 3,000 nits) and brighter cover display, while most hardware (cameras, battery, charging) remains the same. It’s available in 12/256 or 12/512 GB, in Cream, Graphite, Pink and online-exclusive Mint, with prices starting around €1,300 (often discounted). For Flip7 owners, the upgrade isn’t essential, though Samsung’s polished software and premium feel persist.
