Tipster Digital Chat Station has revealed that Huawei’s next-generation flagship, the Mate 80 series, is scheduled to arrive in November.
According to the leak, the upcoming range will include four models and introduce significant upgrades across design, imaging, and performance, positioning it as a strong contender against the newly launched iPhone 17 series.
It can be said based on the above leak that the Huawei Mate 80 lineup is said to feature the Mate 80, Mate 80 Pro, Mate 80 Pro+, and Mate 80 RS.
Read on to find out more details.
 According to fresh reports from Korean media, the company plans to launch not one but two Galaxy Z Fold models in 2026, including a new “wide-type” version that breaks away from the tall, narrow design of previous Folds. The wide model is said to use two 18:9 panels, which unfold into a nearly square 18:18 inner display. That’s a clear contrast to the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s 18:20 aspect ratio, and it could make tasks like gaming, multitasking, and video consumption more natural. |  Xiaomi is preparing its next flagship launch, and the spotlight this time falls on the huge battery of the compact Xiaomi 16. Fresh leaks suggest the phone won’t just rely on raw performance but will also bring notable improvements in other aspects, including battery life, durability, and cameras. With its debut expected in China this month, the device could prove to be one of the year’s most competitive flagships. |
 ARM has announced its next generation of CPU and GPU cores, which will power the MediaTek Dimensity 9500 set to launch later this month. The company has introduced several changes this generation, starting with the naming itself. ARM has retired its familiar Cortex-X and Cortex-A branding in favor of the new C1 family. At the top sits the C1-Ultra, followed by the C1-Premium (a smaller footprint version), the C1-Pro for mid-tier performance, and the efficiency-focused C1-Nano. |  Samsung is expected to take the wraps off the Galaxy S26 series in January 2026, but a new leak has sparked debate among fans who were hoping for another round of camera upgrades. Instead, it seems the Ultra model could take a step backward on one of its telephoto lenses. According to leaker Ice Universe, the Galaxy S26 Ultra may ship with a 12MP (cropped to 10MP) 3x telephoto camera using a 1/3.94-inch sensor and 1.0µm pixels. On paper, that’s smaller than what the Galaxy S25 Ultra offered. |
