With numerous high-profile announcements, week 32 was likely the most interesting one this year.
The Ace Pro, a China-only variant of the OnePlus 10T that made its debut last week, was how OnePlus got things started.
When Samsung unveiled its newest foldable devices, the Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4, on Tuesday, things really took off. The Fold4 switches to a less tall screen aspect by trimming the bezels and lowering the total body height. Its two biggest updates are the new 50MP main and 10MP 3x telephoto cameras.
Additionally, the Galaxy Z Flip4 improves the screen to body ratio, includes a long needed camera improvement, and has a larger battery with quicker charging.
Along with those two, Samsung also unveiled its flagship smartwatches, the Galaxy Watch5 and Watch5 Pro, as well as the high-end TWS Buds2 Pro headphones.
We received a new foldable on Wednesday, this time from Motorola. With the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, the Razr 2022 finally switches the line to a flagship chipset and does away with the obtrusive notch on the front. The 200MP X30 Pro and the upper mid-range S30 Pro were also unveiled by Motorola.
It was finally Xiaomi's moment to dazzle. A stunningly beautiful foldable, the Mix Fold 2 has a super small body, a strong camera setup, and quick charging. The Redmi K50 Ultra, which delivers the most recent Qualcomm chipset at an incredible price, was introduced alongside it. Sadly, it's still not known whether any of those two will ever be accessible outside of China.
See the whole list of our most popular stories below for more information on those and the other hot topics of the week. I'll see you next week.
