Nothing Phone 3 The Nothing Phone 3, from the British manufacturer Nothing Technology Limited, is rumoured to be launched on July 1. While the company has kept silence about the phone's design, information about several of its key features has leaked. With a 6.7-inch LTPO OLED display and a 50MP secondary lens on the front and a primary camera module comprising a trio of 50MP sensors on the back, the phone is suspected to be an upper mid-ranger. A Gen 4 octa-core Qualcomm SM8735 Snapdragon 8s, accompanied by an Adreno 825 GPU, hints at powerful performance. To back it, the phone will present a 5150 mAh battery with a lightning-fast 100W charging system. The design and other functionalities are supposed to be inspired by the signature NOTHING style.

The phone will come wrapped in a unique design, combining a futuristically linear camera module, vertically placed at the left upper corner of the phone’s back, with a classic marble slab pattern on the flat rear panel. The primary camera module accommodates a wide 50 MP, an ultrawide 8 MP sensor, and a flashlight. The secondary camera, which is a 50 MP sensor, is punch-holed in the display, a 6.83-inch full-HD+ AMOLED screen. The operations of the phone will involve a Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 SoC processor, up to 12GB of RAM, and a maximum of 512GB of storage, catering to high-end gamers and media bingers. Enhancing the experience, there will be a 7,300sq mm vapour chamber and a 5200 mAh battery. OnePlus Nord CE 5 OnePlus’s second release, planned for July 8, 2025, will be the OnePlus Nord CE 5. By features, the phone seems to target the lower mid-range market as it will come with 8GB of  RAM, a 50MP dual primary camera setup, a 16MP front lens, and a Mediatek Dimensity 8350 processor. By compromising a few crucial features, like a macro lens, a more powerful RAM and selfie camera, the phone has strived to provide a more gaming-friendly environment.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 & Z Flip 7 To rock the world of Fold and Flip lovers, Samsung has arranged its next-to-release lineup with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 models, coming on July 9, 2025. The Fold 7 will extend a much thinner structure, marking only 4.2 mm in thickness when unfolded. The 8.2-inch bendable LTPO AMOLED primary display and a cover display of the same panel will produce vivid visuals at higher resolutions and respond to touch at a 120Hz refresh rate. Its design will be highly focused on multitasking. Fostering that expectation, the phone will exploit a 3nm Qualcomm SM8750-AB Snapdragon 8 Elite processor. Cooperating with the Adreno 830 GPU and 12 GB of RAM, the processor can pull up a solid experience for gamers, too. The primary set of cameras will feature an awe-striking 200 MP wide sensor with a 10 MP telephoto and a 12 MP ultrawide lens. The Z Flip 7 will share the same primary display panel, processor, RAM, and GPU as the Z Fold 7 but differ by featuring a dual rear camera setup composed of a 50 MP wide and a 12 MP ultrawide sensor. With all these features, both phones may be really up for a great performative and visual experience, but they come up short in battery capacity, using around 4000 mAh batteries.

Most about the vivo X Fold 5 is kept hidden, and no rumour seems to have gained access to it. Only through a few leaks, the possibility of an 8.03-inch LTPO AMOLED and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor is suggested. As per general expectation, the phone may have a triple 50MP camera module and a 6000 mAh battery. With X200 FE, vivo will refresh its presence in the mid-range market, and amidst the current competition in that segment, the phone will make a good entry. Its armament is heavy with powerful features, like a MediaTek Dimensity 9300+ SoC, 12GB of RAM, a 50MP trio, and a 6500 mAh battery. Motorola G96 & G86 Motorola’s aggressive domination in the budget-friendly segment grows in power as the company is all set to release two models back to back, the Motorola G96 and G86. Both phones will feature curved pOLED displays, which is extremely rare at this price.
