New Smartphones
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is a smartphone with the industry-leading camera, specifications, and a fundamentally new Galaxy AI. The new update features a robust titanium shield built directly into the device's body.
This is the ideal smartphone option for someone in a creative profession. A foldable smartphone with the thickness and weight of a standard flagship, all-day battery life, an ultra-light and ultra-reliable titanium hinge, and innovative eye protection technologies.
The meticulously designed Xiaomi 14 Ultra ensures comfortable interaction and reliable protection. The smartphone is equipped with a silicon-carbon battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh and an energy density of up to 779 Wh/l.
The Infinix Zero 30 offers several advantages: a large screen for comfortable content viewing, high performance for running complex applications and games without lag, and a high-capacity battery for long-lasting operation without recharging on the go.
The Realme GT Neo6 SE became the world's first foldable smartphone built on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset. Additionally, the smartphone supports dual SIM cards with 5G and is equipped with two ultrasonic fingerprint sensors.
The distinctive feature of this model is satellite communication support. The main module features a one-inch image sensor from top manufacturer Sony.
Expected Smartphones
The iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus are expected to feature a vertical dual-camera layout, similar to the iPhone 11. This will allow the devices to record spatial video for the Apple Vision Pro. Additionally, the entire iPhone 16 lineup will be equipped with an Action button capable of performing up to nine different functions. A new camera launch button will also be located on the right side. As always, the new iPhone is expected to launch in the fall.
Google Pixel 9 and 9 Pro
The Pixel 9 Pro will be equipped with a flat 6.5-inch screen. More intelligent call analysis, enhanced Gemini functionality, and possibly an improved display are expected. The new smartphone is expected to launch in the second half of 2024.
The Realme GT Neo6 SE features a curved LTPO OLED display and a powerful mid-range Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 processor. The smartphone is expected to be available in green and silver colors.
Samsung is expected to use a 6.7-inch main screen, an improved hinge, and an internal layout with a larger cooling system. The foldable smartphone is expected to feature the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset combined with up to 12 GB of RAM. The launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is scheduled for the summer.
iPhone SE 4
Apple releases the iPhone SE every two years. The question of whether Apple will switch to a full-screen design, abandoning the Home button, and whether it will include FaceID technology in the SE for the first time remains open. The release date for the iPhone SE 4 is currently unknown.
