Samsung finally confirmed the launch date for the S26 series. We'll see the S26, S26+ and S26 Ultra make their debuts on February 25, just as expected. Samsung's big launch event will take place in San Francisco and will be livestreamed on Samsung.com as well as YouTube. Samsung also went ahead and opened reservations for the S26 series. Users who sign up for the event are eligible for $30/€30 vouchers, a trade-in bonus, and a chance to win other vouchers.
To say that Sony is conservative about changing the design of its smartphones would be a laughable understatement - for anyone but the biggest Sony fans it's almost impossible to tell different generations apart. This, however, may change for its next mid-ranger, the Xperia 10 VII. According to a case maker on Amazon, Sony will be switching things up this time, with a different arrangement of its camera sensors compared to its predecessor which launched last year.
