The moment of truth has arrived for Android fans, as the highly-anticipated new version of the operating system is now available for preview. Following a lengthy period of buildup and speculation, Android 16 Beta 1 is ready to be explored. In this article we’re going to take a quick look at some new highlights.

Almost two weeks ago rumors started to swirl that Samsung would be making a rather interesting move with its upcoming flagship, the Galaxy S25 Ultra. As hard as it was for many to believe, word was that Samsung was set to remove bluetooth functionality from their trademark stylus. Let’s be honest, at the time this was pretty hard to believe. Not only was it only coming from one smaller source, it also just didn’t make a lot of sense.

Now that the Galaxy Unpacked Event is over, we finally have all the details on the brand new Galaxy S25 Series of devices. Once again, Samsung focused heavily on the new features powered by AI. Even still, there were a few hardware changes, mostly going to the Ultra model. Check out the specs below.

Xiaomi’s new WinPlay system might just change the way you game on the go forever. Forget little mobile games and the latency of streaming PC games. Just run the PC game on the device!

Despite the fact that the original OnePlus Open/OPPO Find N2 had a real strength in the form of 67W charging, there was one rather blatant omission on these devices which stood out as one of the loan setbacks of what is otherwise a superb device - wireless charging.

Remember when I told you guys that we might be thinking about the Samsung Galaxy S25 Slim wrong? Well, a new report from PhoneArena certainly adds credibility to that perspective. They are reporting that a trusted source has informed them that the S25 Slim, if that is its real name, won’t see a typical launch. Surprisingly, it might not even be released in the US, much like the Z Fold SE.

This rumor mill is once again churning with talk of a tri-fold Samsung phone as well as rumors about the next Galaxy Z Fold device. First, let’s dig into what’s being said and then I’ll tell you why it might be bunk.

Oppo’s trickle of details on the Find N5 continue today as we have another post on Weibo, this time showing off something a bit unexpected - waterproofing.

As we creep closer and close to the February launch of the Oppo Find N5 (the sister device to the OnePlus Open) it’s clear what the marketing strategy from Oppo is - keep posting photos of the phone that make just how insanely thin the thing is.

Maybe you’ve missed the news, but this little app called CapCut has just been banned in the United States. Along with TikTok several other apps by ByteDance have also gotten the axe. On of those said apps was CapCut, which was one of the best and most popular free video editors on Android. I've installed a whole bunch of other video editors on my Pixel 9 Pro Fold, and I'm going to try to edit a quick video in each of them. Hopefully, I'll be able to determine which, if any, of these can serve as a suitable replacement for CapCut.

Much like the Galaxy S25 series of phones, the rumor mill for the Oppo Find N5/OnePlus Open 2 has gone from trickle to raging river quite rapidly. Just the other day we saw a post on Weibo from Senior VP of Oppo Zhou Yibao that showed the Find N5’s thickness compared to a stack of 5 ID cards. From this post, it seemed like Yibao’s earlier claim that the Find N5 would be the world’s thinnest foldable might actually be true.

The Galaxy 25 leaks have been nothing short of a torrent for the last few days and it shows no signs of slowing down. Today, Android Headlines managed to get their hands on a promotional video that we most certainly are not meant to be watching. This video shows many of the new features we’re going to be getting with the Galaxy S25 line of devices.
