By the way, these are the official color options which will be available from retailers, but if past releases are anything to go by, Samsung will likely offer a few Samsung.com exclusive options too.

Behold the upcoming Galaxy Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic, and Watch Ultra (2025) in beautiful new leaks!
They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and there are likely very few tech products on the market right now that emphasize the validity of that old aphorism than the fast-approaching Galaxy Watch 8, Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, and Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025). That's obviously not a fair question or a fair comparison, because it's very clear that the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic will offer more functionality than the "regular" Galaxy Watch 8 ... at a higher price. The upcoming Galaxy Watch 8 looks radically different from last year's Galaxy Watch. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass The rotating bezel-rocking Watch 8 Classic is also unquestionably thicker and presumably significantly heavier than its non-Classic sibling, although it remains to be seen if that will result in a noticeable battery life advantage. At first glance, it looks to me like the square/circle combination on the Galaxy Watch 8 is a bit weirder than what the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic has going for it, which might be due to the smaller size of the cheaper timepiece or the slightly smoother and more natural curves on the costlier model. Of course, you don't have to (and I'm fairly certain many of you will not) agree with my first impression, which may be distorted by how much I traditionally love round, thin, and lightweight smartwatches. The Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is pretty classically handsome in a white colorway. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass Keep in mind that the Galaxy Watch 8 is expected to come in a silver colorway in addition to the graphite paint job leaked in all its glory today, while the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic is likely to rock, well, classic black and white flavors. Perhaps more interestingly, Samsung's 2025 sequel to last year's Galaxy Watch 7 should start selling relatively soon in both 40 and 44mm case sizes, with the belated follow-up effort to 2023's Galaxy Watch 6 Classic only expected to come in a single 46mm variant (with or without standalone cellular connectivity, of course). I'll be honest, I had hoped to see Samsung's 2025 wearable lineup resemble the Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic more closely than have to look at an all-squircle smartwatch portfolio. The squircle still makes the most sense for the rugged Galaxy Watch Ultra line. | Image Credit -- Evan Blass But at least in this color option, I kind of dig the second-gen Galaxy Watch Ultra. The undoubtedly upgraded rugged timepiece looks pretty distinctive in what's likely to be marketed as a "Titanium Blue" version... which strikes me as closer to a silver hue as far as the actual case is concerned. The band is very much blue and very much appealing, although I'm still sad to hear that the Galaxy Watch Ultra (2025) might ditch its predecessor's Titanium White model in favor of this colorway while keeping the Titanium Silver and Titanium Gray paint jobs around. For the time being, there's not an awful lot that I can tell you about the internal upgrades of the Galaxy Watch 8 , Watch 8 Classic, and Watch Ultra (2025) over their forerunners, but with an official announcement likely to take place in just a couple of weeks or so, you should probably expect full spec sheets and lists of capabilities to drop any minute now.

Sony could be preparing a second Xperia phone for 2025, and it's not the one fans were hoping for
Xperia 10 VII could follow the Xperia 1 VII Receive the latest mobile news Subscribe By subscribing you agree to our terms and conditions and privacy policy Xperia 5 series remains absent for a second year What might be a more noteworthy piece of news, however, is revealed by the lack of any Xperia 5 VII mentions. Traditionally, the Xperia 5 line has served as the company's smaller alternative to the Xperia 1 series, with similar camera tech and chip performance but in a more compact form factor. But at this point, we might be looking at a second consecutive generation without the smaller Sony flagship. Uncertain future for U.S. and other global markets The new mid-ranger was spotted in a database listing with model numbers ranging from PM-1510-BV to PM-1515-BV, and carries the internal code name XQ-FE44. Based on this timing, the device could arrive later this year, possibly sometime in new information follows the recent global launch of the Xperia 1 VII , Sony's current flagship for the year. So far, it's the only Xperia phone Sony has officially released in 2025. The emergence of a second model aligns with Sony's tradition of offering a more affordable Xperia 10 variant later in the technical specifications have leaked yet, but the Xperia 10 series typically aims at the mid-range segment, offering lightweight designs, long battery life, and 5G connectivity in a more accessible package. Last year's Xperia 10 VI featured a 5,000mAh battery, Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 processor, and a 6.1-inch OLED display — specs we may see lightly upgraded this lack of new Xperia 5 seems to support speculations that Sony has abandoned this segment in favor of focusing on larger flagship phones and mid-range devices. Although, it might even be that Sony is slowly abandoning the smartphone market altogether The new Xperia 1 VII has yet to launch in North America, raising questions about Sony's commitment to that market. If this is any indication of the company's broader strategy, the upcoming Xperia 10 VII may follow a similar path of remaining limited to Asia and Europe, at least now, it seems the only Sony phones we'll see in 2025 are the Xperia 1 VII and the Xperia 10 VII. Hopefully, the latter performs better in its category than the flagship has in its own.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 vs Galaxy Watch 7: Main differences to expect
Intro It's not a colossal secret, but Samsung tends to release a new wave of smartwatches every summer, usually alongside its newest foldable phones, and this year is no different. Accompanying the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be not two, but three smartwatches: the Galaxy Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic, and the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2. All are shaping up to be slightly different versions of their predecessors, but as usual, we expect that the Galaxy Watch 8 will be the best-value new Samsung wearable that will quite possibly turn out to be a bestseller. Aside from the slightly newer design language, the Galaxy Watch 8 isn't shaping up to be drastically different from last year's Galaxy Watch 7. But is a new styling all there is to it, or is Samsung cooking another cool new feature? New squircle design vs circular design 32GB storage on both 435mAh vs 425mAh battery (44mm models) 10W wireless charging speeds on both Table of Contents: Design and Sizes Bands Software Battery Models Specs Summary This year, Samsung is seemingly treating all of its wearables to a new squircle-like design language, similar to what we got with last year's Galaxy Watch Ultra. This means a mostly squircle aluminum case paired with a standard circular screen. No rotating bezel here, just the standard dual buttons on the right-hand side. This change could potentially help Samsung put an ever-so-slightly bigger battery inside, unconstrained by the circular shape of the previous watch cases, and that seems to be precisely what we get here: a slightly larger battery is rumored to be making the rounds. Other than that, there doesn't seem to be any other particular reason for the redesign itself, but then again, none was needed in the first place. Galaxy Watch 8's new squircle design language That's in a fairly stark contrast with the Galaxy Watch 7 , which is a standard circular smartwatch, just like most Samsung has released in the years before it. It's the most recognizable shape for a watch that translated well for the smartwatch offshoot, too, and the South Korea-based giant knew that well. Galaxy Watch 8 as per the latest rumors" The Galaxy Watch 8 will definitely come in two size versions: 40 and 44 mm ones, just like its predecessors. Size-wise, we don't expect major changes to the formula, which possibly means that the Galaxy Watch 8 will be just as thin and compact as the Galaxy Watch 7 . For a refresher, the latter measured 9.7 mm thin, and either 40.4 or 44.4 mm in diameter, depending on the model. In terms of weight, we doubt the Galaxy Watch 8 will be much heavier than the Galaxy Watch 7 , which weighed in at either 29 or 34 gr. The Galaxy Watch 8 will certainly score IP68 water and dust resistance, as well as MIL-STD-810H shock resistance, just like the Watch 7. With the Galaxy Watch 6, Samsung introduced a new quick-release band attachment mechanism to its smartwatches. It uses a button to quickly detach the strap mechanism from the case of the watch. The system worked perfectly on both the Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 7 generations, and it will likely work beautifully on the Galaxy Watch 8 , as we don't expect changes in the band attachment mechanism. That said, back in December 2024, Samsung filed for a patent for a new attachment mechanism which uses a combination of mechanisms to allow for even faster band interchangeability instantly's notice. However, this one being a patent, there's no way of saying if and when it could become reality. We nevertheless expect some new types of watch bands to be announced alongside the Galaxy Watch 8 series. Software & Features The Galaxy Watch 8 will come with Wear OS as the backbone and Samsung's One UI Watch 8 running on top. Historically, this amalgamation between Google and Samsung's software is a surprisingly decent take on a smartwatch interfaces has been top-notch from a usability and feature perspective, and there's no reason to believe the Galaxy Watch 8 UX will be any different. The aesthetics will be changed, though, as Google's Wear OS is about to score a pretty big redesign with the upcoming Material 3 Expressive design language that's also bound to change Android 16's appearance as well. Samsung is also rumored to be reining it its Galaxy AI to do more on the company's smartwatches, like provide you with an AI-powered personalized recommendations, and more. In terms of new features, we could possibly get non-invasive blood glucose monitoring, which uses the BioActive sensor on board to measure the minuscule differences in blood glucose. While we are slightly pessimistic about this feature making it to this year's Galaxy Watch 8 series, there's always a chance. Last year's Galaxy Watch 7 came with a 300 mAh battery in the 40 mm version, while the larger 44 mm one came with a 425 mAh battery. Well, the rumor mill claims we should expect a slightly larger battery on the Galaxy Watch 8 . A minimal increase to 435 mAh on the 44 mm model and possibly 310 mAh on the smaller option is what we're getting here. As we expect the same 3nm Exynos W1000 chip to be making the rounds on the Galaxy Watch 8 , it's unlikely we're about to get a major increase in battery life. So about a day, a day and a half is possibly the maximum battery life we are getting. Charging-wise, we are possibly getting the same 10W wireless charging on the Galaxy Watch 8 . There will be two versions of the Galaxy Watch 8 : 40 and 44 mm ones. You will be able to get either one with LTE connectivity (great independency) or with GPS/Wi-Fi only that won't be very usable without a phone nearby. Here is how the Galaxy Watch 8 vs Galaxy Watch 7 specs will likely turn out: The Galaxy Watch 8 is shaping up to be mostly a design refresh, a gradual and logical evolution in comparison with the Galaxy Watch 7 . The most intriguing new feature could be the glucose monitoring feature, which could potentially be super useful to many people with diabetes. The fact that it will be non-invasive is an extra cherry on top. Should you upgrade from your Galaxy Watch 7 ? Given that the base specs and features of the two smartwatches are mostly the same, it doesn't seem like Galaxy Watch 7 users should feel compelled to upgrade, given the current ramblings of the rumor mill. Samsung's regular smartwatches have always been good value, so there is
