Samsung’s foldable phone might get a big curved battery

Samsung hasn’t officially acknowledged its foldable Galaxy X but rumour has it the device will be coming next year and its foldable display panels might be going into mass production this summer—if there aren’t any issues, that is. But, of course, the screen isn’t the only flexible thing in the phone, its other components should be, too. A new report shows what the batteries could look like. It’s supposedly being developed by Samsung SDI and comes in a V shape. Capacity is said to be anywhere between 3,000mAh and 6,000mAh. The expectation or hope is for it to be as high as possible, given that the rumoured device will have a screen that’ll be at 7.3 inches when opened and 4.5 inches when folded. Of course, this could all change but for now, it shows us what we could be getting. Is a foldable phone something you’d want to own?

FCC clears lower cost Surface tablet, expected to come to market soon

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

It looks like a more affordable and compact Surface tablet is in the works. The FCC cleared a 10-inch tablet for release this year, which makes it likely that an education focused Surface device is on the way.

Intel from the report claims a “portable computing device” which doesn’t have a specific name except “Model 1824.” The various documents also reveal that the new hardware will be powered by a 24W charger, similar to the one used by the Surface Pro 4 ( the 2017 Surface Pro uses a more powerful 36W charger).

A 10-inch device in the US $400 price range makes a lot of sense for Microsoft and for Surface. It will appeal to students, it can compete with Apple's iPad (which now has Apple Pencil support across the line). The original Surface, which ran on an ARM processor, was a 10-inch device that aimed at students as well althought the Windows RT OS that accompanied it was limited at the time.
