Samsung unveiled its Galaxy Z TriFold this week. Unlike the Huawei Mate XT, which folds outward, the Galaxy Z TriFold keeps its vulnerable folding display on the inside and has an independent cover screen.

The results from last week’s poll are clear – the Poco F8 Ultra is not the best flagship, but it is certainly the best Poco F8 model. And to be fair, it’s not trying to be the best flagship.

This violates the obligation, under... Read more ›
