Recent leaks have revealed renders of two new foldable smartphones from Samsung, which the South Korean producer of electronic devices will almost certainly launch on August 10th. The leaks come from Evan Blass and 91mobiles, and they show the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4.

The Galaxy Z Fold 4 is showcased in three colors (Black, Blue, and Gold/Cream), and it sports a design that’s very similar to the design of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 we saw last year.

According to rumors that have been floating around the internet for some time now, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 will be slightly lighter than its predecessor and will ship with the Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor and 12 GB of RAM. The device is expected to run Android 12 and be available with up to 1 TB of storage.

The smartphone’s cameras will also be upgraded and feature a 50 MP main sensor, a 12 MP ultrawide sensor, a 10 MP telephoto sensor with 3x optical zoom, a 10 MP front-facing sensor for selfies, and a 16 MP under-display sensor.

The Galaxy Z Flip 4 will also use the mighty Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1 processor, but it will probably be available with only 8 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of storage.

The upgrade users of the current Galaxy Z Flip 3 look forward to the most is the increase of the smartphone’s battery capacity from 3,300 mAh to 3,800 mAh or possibly even 3,900 mAh. Together with support for 25 W fast charging, it should make it much easier for users to maintain a reasonably high battery percentage.

In addition to the two foldable smartphones, Samsung will also probably launch the Galaxy Watch 5, the Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, and the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. You’ll be able to watch the livestream on Samsung’s official website on August 10, 2022 (10:00PM KST).

paypal and terrapay join forces for cross-border mena payments

PayPal has teamed up with TerraPay to improve cross-border payments across the Middle East and Africa. The move is designed to make it easier and faster for users to send and receive money internationally, especially in regions where traditional banking infrastructure can be limited or inconsistent.

The partnership connects PayPal’s digital payments ecosystem with TerraPay’s global money transfer network. The goal is to streamline real-time transfers between banks, mobile wallets, and financial institutions, significantly improving access for millions of users looking to move money securely and efficiently.

Through the partnership, users will be able to link their PayPal accounts to local banks and mobile wallets using TerraPay’s platform. This means faster transactions and fewer barriers for individuals and businesses across the region.

“The Middle East and Africa are at the forefront of the digital transformation, yet financial barriers still limit growth for many,” said Otto Williams, Senior Vice President, Regional Head and General Manager, Middle East and Africa at PayPal. “At PayPal, we’re committed to changing that […] Together, we’re helping unlock economic opportunity and build a more connected, inclusive financial future”.

For TerraPay, the deal is a chance to scale its reach while reinforcing its mission of frictionless digital transactions.

“Our mission at TerraPay is to create a world where digital transactions are effortless, secure, and accessible to all,” said Ani Sane, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer at TerraPay. He added that the partnership is a major milestone for enhancing financial access in the Middle East and Africa, helping businesses grow and users move funds with fewer limitations.

The integration also aims to support financial inclusion in a region where access to global banking tools is still uneven. With interoperability at the core, TerraPay can bridge the gap between different financial systems — whether that’s a mobile wallet or a traditional bank — making it easier to send money, pay for services, or grow a business across borders.

As the demand for cross-border payment options continues to rise, both PayPal and TerraPay are doubling down on their commitment to provide reliable, secure, and forward-looking financial tools for the region.
