Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 Series

Galaxy Watch 8 series renders

The design of all of the upcoming Galaxy Watch 8 series has been leaked before. Galaxy Watch 8 series renders show that the lineup will have a consistent design language across all three models. All three of the watches wil have a squircle dial, departing from the circular dial on the Galaxy Watch and Watch Classic models we have seen before.

While the dial is squircle, the display will remain round on all three. The vanilla Watch 8 will simply have a flat display with a thin bezel. The Watch 8 Classic gets a time-marker bezel as well as a rotating bezel that will make a comeback from the Watch 6 Classic.

The classic model this year also gains the new round quick button we saw on the Ultra model last year, which the 2025 Ultra model will also have. Aside from that, all three of them also have a couple of regular buttons as well. The design for the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025 remains largely the same, except that it will be made available in new shades this time.

Another recent report suggests that the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic could arrive in a single 47mm size and could pack a 435mAh rated battery, which typically translates to a 450mAh typical capacity. Compared to the 47mm Watch 6 Classic, which had a 425mAh battery, this year’s model will have a marginally bigger cell.

Samsung Galaxy Buds 3 FE

The FE model of the Galaxy Buds 3 may also be unveiled at the event. While the Galaxy Buds Core are likely arriving this week, the Buds 3 FE will have a different set of features and specs. Unfortunately, details regarding its specs and features are scarce at the moment.

This is all the hardware one can expect to see at the Galaxy Unpacked July 2025 event. We should get to know more about these devices as the launch nears.

Real-Money Gaming, Real Rules: Zupee’s Bid to Build Trust

0

As India’s digital gaming market experiences a surge in real-money gaming, questions of regulation, user protection and ethical gameplay have come to the forefront. At the centre of this evolving landscape is Zupee, an online skill-based gaming platform, which has taken a markedly cautious approach to scaling, even though it has surpassed 100 million downloads and boasts 9 million monthly active users with digital versions of nostalgic Indian games like Ludo and Snakes & Ladders. For Govind Mittal, the company’s Chief of Staff, the challenge has been clear: to grow the platform without compromising on compliance, user safety or long-term integrity.

“Real-money gaming is not just about the product-market fit,” Mittal said to The Mobile Indian in an interview. “It’s about trust, compliance and long-term sustainability.”

Regulatory shifts and responsible scaling

The sector has faced increasing scrutiny in India, with concerns over addiction, financial risk, and regulatory compliance. Mittal says these challenges have shaped Zupee’s internal culture.

“One of the biggest challenges I’ve faced at Zupee has been scaling the platform responsibly in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment,” he said.

To address this, Mittal says he efforts to embed a “governance backbone” across the company, from age verification and compliance teams to partnerships with legal advisors and audit firms.

“We built agile, cross-functional teams that could respond quickly to policy shifts,” he said. “I worked closely with product, legal and marketing to make sure we were not just compliant, but leading the way on ethical gaming.”

Tackling addiction and user harm

Online gaming platforms, especially those involving real money, are often criticised for enabling addictive behaviour and financial strain. Mittal says Zupee has tried to incorporate user protections directly into the platform.

“At Zupee, responsible gaming isn’t a checkbox – it’s part of the platform’s DNA,” he said.

The firm has introduced daily and monthly spending limits, self-exclusion tools, and identity checks. It also uses to detect gameplay patterns that may indicate problematic behaviour.

“Our refund policies are transparent, and our customer service team is trained to intervene when necessary,” Mittal added. “My goal has always been to ensure our platform empowers users, not exploits them.”

Emphasising fairness and transparency

Zupee positions its games as skill-based rather than chance-driven – a crucial distinction in India’s regulatory framework. Mittal says transparency has been key to building public trust.

“All our game mechanics are based on skill, not chance, and gameplay is strictly human vs. human, with no manipulative design,” he said.

The company has partnered with international auditors and undergone evaluations to certify the fairness of its systems, including an audit by consulting firm Arthur D. Little.

“Players have full access to their gameplay and spending history,” he added. “Fairness isn’t just a promise – it’s been tested, audited and institutionalised.”

Growth driven by trust

While Mittal declined to disclose specific conversion rates from free to paying users, he emphasised that Zupee’s monetisation strategy prioritises sustainability over short-term revenue.

“A large percentage of our users come organically, often through referrals,” he said. “We don’t push upsells aggressively. Conversion is important – but retention through trust is what we truly value.”

Preserving nostalgia while pushing forward

Part of Zupee’s appeal lies in how it has reimagined familiar Indian games for the digital age. Mittal said maintaining cultural relevance while modernising the experience has been a careful balancing act.

“The challenge was to innovate without losing the emotional pull,” he said. “It’s a tightrope walk – modernising the experience while staying authentic.”

Zupee has introduced real-time multiplayer features and added layers of skill and technology, including blockchain for fairness and security.

What’s next?

Zupee is now exploring new categories, including light-strategy games and educational formats. However, Mittal says the company is not interested in following trends for the sake of growth.

“Every new format must pass our internal test, evaluating for skill orientation, engagement, cultural relevance and scalability,” he said. “Innovation without governance is risky. I focus on ensuring we do both.”

As Indian authorities consider new frameworks to regulate online gaming, Zupee’s approach may offer insight into how the industry can evolve, with innovation, but also with safeguards.

Samsung Debuts Exynos 2500 SoC Ahead of Next-Gen Foldables’ Launch

Samsung has announced a new flagship dubbed Exynos 2500. Successor to last year’s Exynos 2400, Samsung’s in-house Exynos 2500 features a customized 4th generation Xclipse 950 GPU, is made on a 3nm node, and has a Cortex-X5 prime core. The chipset is expected to make an appearance next month inside the Galaxy Z Flip 7. Here’s everything else to know about the chip.

Exynos 2500 SoC: All Details

Thanks to Exynos 2500’s powerful NPU that can run up to 59 trillion operations per second (TOPS), the chip brings on-device that represents a 39% improvement over its predecessor.

The NPU embedded in the Exynos 2500 features two 12K MAC clusters creating an impressive 24K MAC capability, which is significantly higher than the previous model’s 17K MAC performance. It also brings enhanced vector engine efficiency for generative AI model acceleration.

Built on 3nm Gate All Around (GAA) process technology, the Exynos 2500 provides better power efficiency and enhanced heat dissipation at a much reduced chip thickness through fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP), says the brand. Plus, further optimization has been achieved through the modifications to core structure and implementation of an GNSS interface.

Exynos 2500 has adopted the Arm Cortex-X925 and has ten cores in a 1+7+2 arrangement. Big-core performance has also improved by a claimed 15% over the predecessor. There’s the Cortex-X5 ticking at 3.3 GHz, two Cortex-A725 cores running at 2.74 GHz, five Cortex-A725 cores running at 2.36 GHz, and two Cortex-A520 cores running at 1.8 GHz clock speed.

The Exynos 2500 adopts new image quality improvement features, including multi-layer noise reduction (MLNR), enhanced temporal & spatial noise reduction, as well as its premier Dynamic Range Compression (DRC) tone mapping function for sharper contrast in the area of detail.

It comes with AI-based image processing and supports ultra-high-resolution cameras that shoot up to 320MP. It also allows for 8K video recording and playback of 60 and 30 fps, respectively. Thanks to an upgraded image signal processor, you can shoot vivid images and videos in high resolution.

The chip is powered by a customized 4th generation Xclipse 950 GPU. The Xclipse GPU’s increased rendering speed improves hardware-accelerated ray tracing for smoother, more immersive gaming experiences.

The Exynos 2500 provides seamless communication through its NR modem that supports the latest 3GPP Rel. 17. The modem enables downlink speeds of up to 9.6 for FR1 and 12.1 Gbps for FR2. It also supports up to 1024-QAM, which is a spectral efficiency more than 20% improved over existing modems.

Furthermore, the Exynos 2500’s built-in modem has non-terrestrial network (NTN) capabilities that utilize satellites for free-flowing connectivity even in cellular dead zones. The Exynos 2500 also comes with a built-in GNSS block and allows the latest connectivity features — such as 5.4 and 7 — to interface.

The chip can support 4K/WQUXGA displays running at 120 refresh rate. There’s support for 4.0 storage and LPDDR5x RAM.

While Samsung didn’t officially reveal the first device to use this chip, it is expected to be the Galaxy Z Flip 7 that will reportedly debut on July 9th.
