Looking back at the news and headlines this week in the Android world, including Galaxy S26 Ultra Leak, Pixel 10 Pro Fold Specs, Galaxy Z Triufold, Sünndesign or Wireless Load, OnePlus Plusmind -Start, Gemini in a bar and global smartphone shipping.

The Android Circuit is here to remind you of some of the many discussions about Android in the past seven days. You can also read my weekly digestion of Apple News here on Forbes.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Specs Lecks

New details have occurred on Samsung Galaxy S models for 2026. The top line smartphone, probably the Galaxy S26 Ultra, seems to support a 200 megapixel camera alongside other optical improvements:

“… points to a 200 -MP main camera, but there is no word if this is an updated sensor in accordance with a recently carried out leak. A 50 -MP telele camera was also mentioned, while the partners apparently create the first parts for 5 -times optical zoom. This probably means that a 50 -MP camera returns a return.

Pixel 10 Pro -Fold details unveiled

The always reliable FCC certification process usually confirms the specifications of the upcoming devices per month before the start. Google's Pixel 10 Pro Fold was captivated, with details about the dimensions, ads and battery, everyone is given:

“The Google Pixel 10 Pro -Fold cover display will be increased from 6.3 inches to 6.4 inches this year. This should lead to a similarly large internal display, since Google reduces the bezel of the cover display and the hinge. The cover display also receives a brightness thrust to 3,000 nITs.

Samsung's Triple Play

What does fold and flip form factors come after Samsung? Since the South Korean company is applying for a new brand in South Korea, we can have our answer to the next origami smartphone:

“The official name of this device is not yet known. It is therefore all the more interesting that Samsung registered the trademarks of Galaxy Z Triflold in South Korea at the beginning of this week.

Samsung asks “thin or wireless?”

The future is very important in terms of Samsung with a public survey of his community whether “thin” prefers the support of its upward trend from 'Qi2'. With the Qi2 -wireless Charigng standards, magnets have to block the charger in place. While Samsung can offer this over a case, it requires a thicker phone to offer it on the phone (like some other manufacturers). Which will it be?

“The first question asked whether” Qi2 (like Magsafe) “would reduce the inconvenience if the device would only support the shop with wireless loading methods. In other questions, however, Samsung asks whether users want magnets to be integrated into their telephone at the expense of the device.”

OnePlus' AI movement

OnePlus introduced his new assistant with AI. Plusmind probably rests under the “Plus key” (the replacement for the legendary three-way alarm slider) on new models, but available via the user interface of older models. The OnePlus 13S could debut the new service:

“Mind Space is a place to organize your fragmented memories … This is a stroke in which all your most important content will live. With the AI search, you can find out what you need without the information overload you use, or automatically translates content into another language to make you accessible and searched.”

Gemini in a bar

If you stay in the user interface at AI, a closer look at the code in the latest Android Beta implementation of a widget style “AI -Balken” shows to support the surface -gemini functions and information.

“The function is still in progress, and we expect its functionality grow and ripe when it comes closer to the publication. Google has not yet announced the function, so we do not know when it comes. We will keep it up to date when we learn more.”

(Android Authority).

And finally …

There is good and bad news on the smartphone market. New figures from IDC and its quarterly mobile phone tracker show that the programs have risen somewhat compared to the previous year, but there are considerable headwinds from many market areas that have to be addressed:

“The smartphone market remained positive, but the uncertainty, which was heated by volatility of the tariffs, have continued persistent macroeconomic challenges such as the instability of forex, unemployment and inflation in all regions, which rejuvenate the expenses of consumers for smartphones, especially in segments with a low end.”
