Will Sattelberg is a writer and podcaster at 9to5Google.
He’s been covering all things Android since 2021 when he joined the team at Android Police, serving as both News Editor and Phones Editor throughout his tenure. Prior to professionally covering Android and all things smartphones, he was just a passionate enthusiast, having purchased his first Android device — HTC’s Thunderbolt — back in 2011.
Will has a degree in video production he occasionally remembers to use, but his real love lies in both writing and podcasting. He’s constantly fascinated — and sometimes frustrated — by the ever-evolving shape of consumer technology, and enjoys bringing that sense of affection and curiosity to everything he produces.

If you have a hazy recollection of a gold-plated Escobar-branded foldable from a few years ago, your mind isn’t playing tricks on you.

After a full reveal earlier this month, it’s launch week for Samsung’s upcoming lineup of foldables, and at least in the company’s home country, it seems like that bold, refreshed Galaxy Z Fold 7 design is paying off.

Welcome to episode 62 of Pixelated, a podcast by 9to5Google. This week, we’re prepping for all things Pixel 10. With Made By Google officially announced for August 20th, we have less than five weeks to go until new Google hardware hits our desk. From phones to wearables, earbuds to foldables, there’s a lot to look forward to — and frankly, it might all boil down to some software secrets we don’t know much about yet.
If you’re impatiently waiting for word on when Samsung’s first tri-fold smartphone might finally hit the market, you might not have to wait much longer — even if it means getting beat to the punch by the only other tri-foldable in town.

Although Samsung took the stage at Unpacked last week to debut an all-new trio of foldables, we’re still waiting for the company’s long-rumored tri-fold smartphone. Now, a new trademark registration might be giving away its eventual name before we even get a real tease.

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 represent a big leap forward for Samsung’s mobile arm, but they’re far from perfect devices. In a new interview, we’re getting some insight into the sacrifices made to achieve these new designs, and whether the S Pen could make a comeback in the future.

This week’s Unpacked might have been Samsung’s most successful launch in ages. Both the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 offer some pretty substantial improvements over their direct predecessors, with slimmer builds and larger displays — exactly what fans have been asking for. And while neither device is perfect, they each go a long way in quelling discussions around Samsung’s recent output.

Welcome to episode 61 of Pixelated, a podcast by 9to5Google. This week, we’re unpacking Galaxy Unpacked, exploring everything Samsung announced at this week’s foldable-focused event.

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7 has arrived with a whole slate of upgrades — at the cost of S Pen support, that is. But despite this year’s big-screen foldable feeling wholly reinvented, there’s one element that’s gone ignored for yet another year: battery capacity.
