Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra Design Leaks: Rounded Corners Revealed!
Across the generations of its models, Samsung has been trying to retain its premium S-series design. It brings a bit of change each time, so that there is apparent improvement in both style and feel. The results have been mixed. For the latest release, the Galaxy S Ultra series has settled on rectangular design with sharp corners that add a touch of style but can make the phone uncomfortable to hold for extended periods.
There are hints that Samsung may be changing course with the next flagship model in store, the Galaxy S25 Ultra. According to Samsung critic Ice Universe, the new S25 Ultra is coming with a more rounded design.
The sharp 90° angles that defined previous models seem to be a thing of the past. Ice Universe has said that the design of the S25 Ultra will bend a lot more towards the Galaxy S24 and S24+, which are believed to have a flatter front and back.
It may be more rounded at the back than at the front, giving it a softer shape and making it more comfortable to hold.
Here are some mock-up comparisons with the current Galaxy S24 Ultra and the upcoming iPhone 16 Pro Max. Noticeably different is the new S25 Ultra, with rounded corners on both its frame and its display. However, when placed next to the iPhone 16 Pro Max, the S25 Ultra still does manage to maintain some of its rectangular look.
The OnePlus 11 5G is getting the OxygenOS 15 April 2025 update. The update comes with the software version CPH2447_15.0.0.800(EX01) and has a download size of 937.15 MB. It brings several new features, improvements, and bug fixes to enhance the overall user experience.
What’s New in this update?
One of the major additions in this update is partial screen recording. Users can now choose a specific area of the screen to record, rather than recording the entire screen. This is useful for making focused tutorials or short clips without showing everything on the display.
The update also adds support for file sharing between the OnePlus 11 and Mac devices. You can now view your phone files directly on your Mac and easily transfer files between the two devices. This improves interconnection and makes file management more convenient for users who use both platforms.
Another new feature is the stack view layout for the Recent Tasks screen. This can give a cleaner and more organized look when switching between apps. If you prefer the old style, you can disable this feature by going to Settings > Home screen & Lock screen > Recent tasks manager.
In addition, the update improves gesture recognition for floating windows, making them easier to close. It also enhances the visual appearance by adding better shadow effects around these floating windows, giving a smoother and more polished look.
Lastly, the update includes the April 2025 Android security patch, which helps improve system security and keep your device protected.
If you own a OnePlus 11, it’s recommended to check for the new update by going to Settings > System > System Updates and install it for the latest improvements.
I’ve recently noticed a strange issue with my OnePlus 11. A few times, I’ve taken a photo—usually to remember something important—and while the shutter sound goes off and it looks like the photo was taken, it never appears in my gallery.
What’s even more confusing is that I clearly remember the photo being captured, but it just vanishes. This has been happening occasionally since the beginning of this year.
I’m not sure what’s causing the problem. It could be a bug in the camera app, an issue with the gallery, or something deeper in the system software. So far, I haven’t seen any official response from OnePlus about this.
If anyone else is facing the same issue, I’d recommend keeping your phone updated and trying a third-party gallery app to check if the photo gets saved elsewhere. Clearing the camera or gallery cache might help too.
The CMF Phone 2 Pro has officially launched, and it comes with its first software update – Nothing OS 3.2. I received the device before launch and had been using it with pre-release software. While some features like Private Space, Hotspot Manager, and separate App Lock passwords were already available earlier, this update brings further performance improvements and system optimizations.
There are also small but useful changes in the Essential Space, such as the ability to edit reminder details like date and time, which were already present before this final rollout. This was push through Google Play Store.
The new update is quite large, with a size of 0.96GB, and has the build number Galaga-V3.2-250425-1517-IND. It focuses on optimizing the phone’s performance and stability, making it smoother and more responsive during daily use.
The update includes general performance boosts, such as smoother app launches thanks to optimised launcher animations, improved scrolling in the Google News Feed, and better adaptive brightness adjustment. The three-finger screenshot gesture is now more fluid, and the overall system stability has been improved.
The update also improves the camera experience. Photos now have more accurate colours and better clarity, while 4K videos at 30fps are sharper and clearer. The camera now performs better under heavy usage, which will be useful for users who shoot a lot of photos or videos.
Even though many features were already present before launch, this official software update ensures that all retail units of the CMF Phone 2 Pro will deliver a more polished and stable experience right out of the box.
