Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8 is debuting a wider form factor we’ve not seen on Android in a few years and, ahead of its launch, the device has been spotted in the wild.

Later this year, Samsung Gallery will be completely ending its integration with Microsoft OneDrive but, months early, the app is already removing support.

Prototype devices find their way to leaking in a variety of different ways, such as the infamous iPhone in a bar. Now, though, there’s been the finding of what appears to be a Pixel Watch 5 that was lost… in the ocean.
