The strategy with the new product lineup is simple: increase upgrade rates and shorten replacement cycles. The iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max redesign, alongside the new iPhone 17 Air, will likely drive many users to upgrade, as the new aesthetics and thinner form factor will be distinctive factors.

The new Pixel 10 Pro Fold is built to address the biggest concern with foldables: durability. It's one of the first book-style foldables to achieve an IP68 rating, meaning it has top-tier protection against both dust and water. #MadeByGoogle

"Isn't the Galaxy Z Fold 7 too expensive?!", many asked me.
The price is high, but....
✔️ trade-in a device and get a significant discount
✔️ most people will buy it on a contract and pay a monthly installment
✔️ people can't expect to get one of the best devices this year cheap 😅

I've been testing the HONOR Magic V5 for several days now, and the experience couldn't be better. This is a dream foldable phone that makes me forget that I'm carrying a foldable phone. At 8.8mm (folded) and weighing just 217g, it's a remarkably sleek. Battery life couldn't be better with 5,820mAh

I look forward to attending one of the most interesting and important tech events of the year, Apple's #WWDC25. Last year, Apple announced #AppleIntelligence. As competitors have been moving fast on AI developments, will Apple make any breakthrough announcement or incremental improvements?
