A rapper wanted to build a futuristic city of 6,000 million dollars in Senegal: a wakanda inspired

by

The American rapper Alioune Badara Thiam, better known as AKON, announced in 2020 his goal of building a Megation of 6,000 million dollars In Senegal. This city would be inspired by wakanda, The Central African country invented by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby to locate the kingdom of the Superhero Black Panther. The proposal promised to change the urban and economic landscape of the African country, serving as a magnet To attract investments and tourism to Senegal. In the same way that happened to them To other pharaonic projectsAkon’s “Wakanda” went from estimating its investment of 6,000 million to a sixth part and, finally, summarizing just a couple of buildings in a remote rural population southeast of the capital of Senegal. Akon City: Wakanda in real life Akon was A success rapper During the early 2000s. Although he spent most of his life in the United States, his origin is Senegalés. That is why it is not strange that he dreamed with taking Senegal the project of his life. The artist dreamed of building a futuristic megaciudad inspired by the wakanda I had seen in Marvel’s comics and movies. To anyone’s surprise, the rapper baptized the project as Akon City. Although the idea could have remained as An artistic eccentricitythe close ties that joined Senegal made the then Minister of Tourism of Senegal, Alioune Sarr, give institutional support to the project, such and As reported The avant -garde In 2020. “For all those who come from America, Europe or anywhere wanting to visit Africa, we want Senegal to be his first stop,” said the rapper in the presentation of the project. Akon City The rapper said “I want buildings to seem authentic African sculptures that make in the villages”, collected he Washington Post. That spirit was collected in the architecture that the artist imagined in the form of great skyscrapers in sinuous ways. As can be seen on the project website, the city was going to be divided into different thematic areas: educational, health, technological, entertainment, etc., etc., equipped with hospitals, football stadiums, filming studies or research laboratories and universities. And how is that paid? Financing, in addition to state investments and private investment, was going to be supported by a cryptocurrency that the rapper wanted to link to the development of the city: the Akoin. The Senegalese government fulfilled its part and contributed 800 coastal hectares without building to develop the new urban project. The chosen location was Mbodiène, an agricultural village about 100 kilometers southeast of Dakar. Akon City entertainment district However, like It has already happened With projects that start from Much more solvent pockets That Akon’s, Like NeomThe rapper soon realized that 6,000 million was a lot of money. Therefore, in 2024 investment expectations They were reduced from 6,000 million dollars to a much more modest plan, valued at 1,000 million dollars. For its part, Akoin began its price on the Bitget exchange platform at $ 0.15 on November 19, 2020. For December 11, its last available price had already fallen to $ 0.003 confirming the little support that the project had received and hurting it. Such and as he collected Bloomberg, At present, there are still no roads, homes or electricity grid on those land. The only constructions that the rapper has financed are a youth center, a basketball court in the nearby population of Mbodiène and a building reception still half building. Nor is there a trace of futuristic buildings They imagined for Akon City. The end of Akon City and the future of the land The outcome of the project came from the hand of Serigne Mamadou Mboup, director of Sapco, the Senegal Tourism Development Agency that in statements to the BBChe said: “The Akon City project no longer exists, fortunately, an agreement has been reached between Sapco and the businessman Alioune Badara Thiam. What is preparing with us is a realistic project, which Sapco will fully support” The artist himself acknowledged that the project was great and admitted that “it was not properly managing; I assume all responsibility.” Senegal has recovered 90% of the land that had yielded for the development of the city and plans to continue collaborating with the artist to build sports and civil equipment for 2026 Youth Olympic Games that are celebrated in Dakar. However, Senegal Wakanda will have to wait save in a drawer. Yibambe!

If interpreting a magnetic resonance it seems difficult it is because it is. That is why we are developing help: an AI

by

The expectations are high: Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been promising for some time to be the next great revolution in medicine. Even aware of this revolution, the tools based on this concept are gaining step step by step in the area of ​​medical sciences. One of the most recent steps has been given by a team of researchers in Malaga. Improve images. The step in question has to do with the techniques used to take medical images. The new tool Improve automatic segmentation Of medical images, which in turn allows us to reduce errors in the analysis of complex images, says the team itself. Segmentation. But what exactly is that automatic medical image segmentation? According to Explain the team itselfmedical segmentation consists in “delimiting anatomical structures or lesions in medical images.” Thus it is possible not only to diagnose certain diseases more effectively, but also to more easily locate injuries and improve precision in certain treatments. However, this task is not always easy due to the limitations of the techniques used to take these images, such as magnetic resonances and tomographs. “The precision in the segmentation of medical images is essential to improve diagnoses and treatments,” detailed in a press release Ezequiel López Rubio, who led the study. Our approach demonstrates that it is possible to optimize the reliability of AI models by applying trial time increase techniques, which opens new possibilities in the field of computational medical image. ” In Xataka The Chinese company Alibaba has an AI to detect pancreatic cancer. It is so good that the US has accelerated its approval Medsam. For the development of the tool, the team started from a New Model of AI called Medsam, a model that combined with the TTA technique (Test-Time Augmentation). This combination allows, the team itself points out, introduce small transformations in the images at the time of being analyzed. Thus it is possible to achieve a “more robust system against variations”, with better precision in segmented contours. Promising results. With Regarding the resultsThe team stressed that the new tool “significantly improves precision” if we compare it with traditional segmentation methods, achieving greater reliability. This greater reliability would be key in images with noise or with little quality, something that, stand out, is common in clinical practice. Another relevant point for those who have formulated this new tool is flexibility of the methodology and its ability to adapt to different image taking technologies. The details of the study were published In an article In the magazine Mathematics. {“videoid”: “x8px49v”, “autoplay”: fals, “title”: “Antibiotics are no longer effective and the problem is superbacteria”, “Tag”: “Webedia-prod”, “Duration”: “327”} The new border. Artificial intelligence continues to see rapid expansion. An expansion that It covers medical disciplines. A good example of this are the diagnostic tools, whose precision would have managed to overcome the “clinical eye” of health personnel, according to They hold their developers. We still cannot trust our health at AI, but of course the potential of these tools when assisting health professionals and patients themselves grows day by day. These tools are a promising future, but at least for now they are just that.

Fruit fear fattening. Reality is more complicated

by

We are in full summer and the heat is not giving us truce, despite the Dana that is touring the Mediterranean. Above, at night, the high temperatures is not that Dén a lot of truceso turning on the fire to cook becomes somewhat difficult. And in Spain, where we had dinner later than anyone in Europethe idea of ​​a heavy dinner at 22:00 can be almost offensive to the stomach. Therefore, there are people who are opting for the easy: Fruit dinner, but is it really a good idea? A tempting combination. Between the heat and the effervescent idea of ​​the “bikini operation” – which charges strength with the arrival of fashions on social networks, Like the obsession with flat belly– Some people see in the fruit a kind of dietary lifeguard. Refreshing, quick to prepare and with a light reputation, it seems the ideal option for dinner without adding calories. In fact, publications like Vogue They have pointed out that this practice has become popular as a detox strategy or to lose weight, while Men’s Health He has pointed out that those who seek to control their caloric intake usually resort to fruit at night. But, like almost everything in nutrition, things are not as simple as they seem. An easy solution. The fruit is healthy, nobody doubts. It is a food that provides vitamins, water, fiber and antioxidant compounds. Eating only fruit for dinner is not a dangerous practice by itself, but it is not a magical solution either. In a report for Telvaseveral nutritionists have warned that many fruits have a high glycemic index (such as very mature banana, grapes or chaqui). This means that they can raise blood sugar quickly, something that is not convenient if you are going to sleep later without moving a muscle. In addition, the point is that fruit has no healthy proteins or fats, which generates less satiety and can cause hunger the next day. This situation can cause a cycle of excess for food anxiety, such as have pointed out in Vogue. And what can be done with this heat? Nutritionist Jerlyn Jones has pointed out in Heathline that the fruit is Perfectly compatible with a healthy dinner, provided that it is not the only thing on the plate. Combine it with proteins (such as natural yogurt, cooked egg or white fish) and healthy fats (avocado, nuts, olive oil …) helps stabilize blood sugar levels and feel more satiated. For his part, dietitian Rocío Práxedes has insisted on an interview for Infosalud that the fruit does not fat at night: the relevant is not the time, but the daily caloric total and the balance of the diet. However, remember that excessive consumption of fruit can displace other essential nutrients, especially if dinner becomes regularly into a bowl of melon and little else. If you are determined by the fruit … Some fruits are more suitable than others for dinner. The low glycemic index – as apple, pear, kiwi or red fruits – are good allies. On the other hand, others such as mango, mature pineapple or watermelon raise glycemia faster, something that does not interest just before sleeping. As have pointed out in the voice of Galiciayou have to be careful with the juices and the dehydrated fruit. Although they seem healthy, when fiber is eliminated, its effect on blood sugar is faster and less satiating. Most recommended. It may sound to Cliché, but the key is in variety and balance. A healthy dinner in summer can be light, yes, but it must be complete. A yogurt with fruits and nuts, a salad with fresh cheese and fruits of the forest, or a cold cream of vegetables with a hard egg and a piece of fruit at the end can be simple, fresh and very healthy options, According to Vogue. Not everything is the fault of the fruit. The fact of late dinner and in large quantities can alter rest and favor Fat storage, since the body does not spend energy while we sleep. The general recommendation of experts: dinner at least three hours before going to sleep, and that dinner does not exceed 20% of the daily caloric daily. And while dinnering fruit may seem like a way to compensate, it is not worth any fruit or any amount. In Men’s HealthNutritionist Tiziana Stallone has pointed out that, in cases of diabetes, insulin resistance or digestive problems such as dysbiosis or Sibo, it is convenient to limit high glucemic index fruits, such as watermelon or grapes, especially at night. Neither myth, nor miracle. No, the fruit does not get fat at night. But it is not an infallible plan to lose weight. Eating well is somewhat more complex than opening the fridge and chopping watermelon with the light of the refrigerator. The fruit is an ally, but not the only one. And taking care of yourself does not suppress food, but to learn to combine them. So this summer, before skipping dinner or limiting it to a peach: it’s not about eating less, but eating better.

If Europe is beating solar energy records this summer, why has the price of light shot?

by

Summer is a paradox season for the energy sector. On the one hand, renewables are reaching historical figures. June marked the month of greater production of solar energy ever registered in the European Union: Friolera of 45 twh22% more than the previous year. On the other, many Europeans saw how their light of the light doubled or even tripled. The question is inevitable: if we swim in solar energy, why do we pay more for electricity? The demand is triggered. The heat waves that run Europe They have put the thermometers around 40 ºC in numerous points in Spain, France and Germany. With air conditioning systems, working at maximum power, the electrical demand has shot. According to him Last Ember reportdaily demand grew by 14% in Spain, 9% in France and 6% in Germany during the month of June. A greater electrical demand, alone, already presses the prices of upward light. But the heat brought with it a second problem, this time on the offer side. Thermal plants are suffocated. The same heat that drives the demand for air conditioning puts traditional energy plants, especially nuclear. These facilities need huge amounts of river water to refrigerate their reactors. When the water temperature rises too much, its refrigeration capacity decreases, forcing to reduce production and, in extreme cases, to stop it completely. France It has been the most affected country. Its fleet of nuclear centrals, one of the pillars of the European interconnected network, is suffering capacity reductions in almost all its facilities. But it is not an exclusively nuclear problem. In Poland, the cooling of coal centrals is being a constant concern, and in Italy, the overheating of the network cables was the most likely cause of the blackout of July 1. At the time of maximum need, a crucial part of the generation of traditional energy is not available. Missing storage for the solar. The saving of this crisis is photovoltaic solar energy. In Germany, the Solar came to generate 50 GW peaks, covering between 33% and 39% of the entire electricity of the country. With a marginal cost close to zero, solar panels are doing exactly what is expected of them: maintain the stability of the network during the day with abundant and cheap energy, despite their Performance problems under extreme heat. The night is another song. At sunset, solar production falls to zero, but the refrigeration demand remains high. When the high temperatures persist until well into the night, Insufficient storage capacity (either in batteries or With pumping hydroelectric) forces to resort to gas and other fossil sources to cover the hole, shooting prices. The damn “Spred”. This temporal mismatch caused by the abundance of variable energy and the lack of resources to store it is what causes madness in prices. A daily price differential (the “spred”) of up to € 400/MWh in Germany and € 470/MWh in Poland. This night peak, and not the average price, is what triggers the final bill and makes the light through the clouds when more cheap energy is producing. The lesson is clear: the challenge is not only to generate cheap renewable energy, but manage it. More storage is needed to buy energy at low prices at noon and sell it at high prices in the afternoon. But also More European interconnections. The heat wave did not affect all of Europe with the same intensity and the same day. The biggest June peaks arrived in Madrid on Domingo, Paris on Tuesday and Berlin on Wednesday. The reinforcement of the interconnections will allow to distribute the cheap energy more and better.

This summer’s surprise success in Netflix combines superheroes and k-pop

by

‘The K-Pop Warriors’ is the undisputed surprise success of the summer: an animated film inspired by the K-Pop music that has been submitted to the top of Netflix’s success lists. One more proof that sometimes it is not necessary to have great names by supporting a production: strangely that it seems, sometimes it is enough to exhibit enough quality and originality. What happens to ‘The K-Pop Warriors’: Also known as ‘KPOP DEMON HUNERS’, the movie’s premise is pure fantasy: a group of idols of K-Pop They lead a secret life as demon jackets, in an absurd and highly stylized mixture of ‘Buffy Hunting’ and ‘Hannah Montana’. In this adventure, facing a band of villains, a group of boys who are also music stars, their responsibilities as Salvadoras of the world and more or less run over their massive success are quoted. Sweeping ‘The K-Pop Warriors’ arrived on the platform on June 20 and quickly reached the post number 1 in Netflix worldwideleading the most watched lists in 26 countries and entering The Top 10 in 93 territories. In its first two weeks, he accumulated more than 33 million views, being placed as the most watched film of the platform in that period. In fact, in the second week, he doubled his initial figures, from 9.2 million views in the first three days to 24.2 million and more than 40 million hours reproduced. That is, a phenomenon of pure mouth mouth. And be careful, that there is also critical and public impact: In Rotten Tomatoesthe film has 95% criticism and 90% of the public, which makes it the best combination of scores for an animated production output of the platform. Impact on multiple aspects. It is not just that the series is reaching unusual success thanks to the quality of its history or its impressive animation, but has transcended its initial success in streaming to become a global phenomenon that also dominates the musical field. Your soundtrack has also achieved a Notable impact: two of their songs entered the 200 Billboard and in their second week the streams In the US, they exceeded 42 million, with a 44% increase in digital downloads, an unusual achievement for an animated film. Who is behind. This success must to the participation of a couple of producers from the K-Pop industry, Teddy Park and Lindgren. The first is one of the most influential producers of the genre, and has written successes for Blackpink2Ne1 and Bigbang. The second is an international producer and composer of international scope, and has worked with artists such as Dua Lipa and BTS. Park took care that the songs sounded to Genuino K-Pop, not a low quality glow for a movie. And Lindgren, on the other hand, is responsible for the cabins to possess enough pop hook to impact the lists of successes. To round the product, in the songs you can hear voices of idols Reales such as Jeongyeon, Jihyo and Chaeyoung from Twice. The fandom can be satisfied. And now what. The overwhelming success of ‘The K-Pop warriors’ can leave an important mark in the industry, or at least advance some future trends. For example, it eliminates from Disney’s hands the monopoly of animated musical productions, introducing other genres and themes that are proven that they are interested in the Fandom: the K-Pop sells, and is a practically virgin material in the world of success animation. We are facing unstoppable force within the tastes of thousands of spectators. Lie groups. And linked to the latter, we must not forget that Hentr/X and Saja Boys, the leading groups of ‘The K-Pop Warriors’ are entirely virtual. Its sales and their achievements (for example, have reached number one of platforms such as Spotify) rival those of authentic groups, which opens the doors to more experiments of this type. The creation of fictitious artists, whose life was modeled by marketing departments, was common note in the K-Pop, but with this confirmation of the success of the idols Virtualthe genre continues to widen borders towards unknown limits.

Save the price or save power. And he has chosen the path of self -destruction

In just ten minutes of video call, eight OPEC+ countries made a decision with the potential to alter the balance of the global energy market. Behind this new movement, that could be expectedthere is something else: a carefully calibrated strategy, with economic and geopolitical implications that could spread far beyond the barrel. Opening the tap. Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Kazakhstan, Algeria and Oman – the eight OPEC+ countries that They applied volunteer cuts In 2023— they have been gradually increasing Your production. Now they have decided to accelerate this process: from August they will add 548,000 additional daily barrels, and do not rule out another similar increase in September. According to the official notethis could be completed before planning the total reversal of 2.2 million barrels per day that stopped pumping last year. Do you enjoy good health? It seems that yes, or at least that the reason declared by the OPEC+. From the organization They have expressed that there is a “good health of the oil market”, with low inventories and a global demand that remains stable. Giovanni Staunovo, UBS analyst cited by BloombergHe explained that “the market remains adjusted, suggesting that it can absorb additional barrels.” However, there are more reasons behind the scenes. According to Goldman Sachs bank has pointed out for Reuters that the measure is part of a broader strategy to normalize idle capacity and discipline the schist sector in the US. In this way, the entity provides that the eight countries will increase its collective production by 1.67 million BPD between March and September, with Saudi Arabia leading more than 60% of the increase. The threat of oversupply. In the short term, the market seems receptive. The same day of the ad, the price of crude rose slightly, challenging the most pessimistic predictions about the fall in demand. However, medium -term consequences are uncertain. The reality is that the market is currently “adjusted”, commercial tensions and The “Peak Oil” Chinese They could translate into a significant oversupply for the end of the year, especially in winter. The International Energy Agency It foresees a surplus of up to 1.5% of world consumption for the fourth quarter of 2025. In addition, some experts like Doug King, from RCMA Capital, They have remembered in Bloomberg that the “official” increase of the offer does not always equals real availability, since countries like Kazakhstan They keep breaking installments while Saudi Arabia presses for compensation to those who have overcome in the past. A possible domino effect. The OPEC+ decision impacts unevenly. For importing countries such as India or the European Union, the lowest prices of oil relieve internal economic tensions. But for producers outside the poster, the stage is more uncertain. The pressure on the American shale sector, highly dependent on prices above $ 60-65 per barrel, intensifies. Here enters the United States. Interestingly, this measure is also aligned with the political interests of Donald Trump, who has promised to reduce fuel costs to relieve the crisis of the cost of living. Your pressure on OPEC to increase production is well known, and its insistence on Apply tariffs and interest rate cuts could be tilting the balance in its favor. But there is another face: the American oil industry, one of Trump’s main economic and political bastions, It is also the most exposed. If prices fall below 60 dollars, many shale companies could see their profitability compromised. As Oilprice has pointed outdespite the current difficulties of companies such as Exxon and Shell, demand remains more robust than expected, challenging the collapse narrative for electric vehicles. However, the risk is clear: a new price drop could put in check to the United States’s own energy, which has already announced less perforations for this year due to the uncertainty of the market. Can Riad hold it? This is one of the big questions. Despite its apparent confidence, Saudi Arabia also faces internal pressures. According to the International Monetary Fundyou need prices above $ 90 per barrel to cover your budget. The economic reforms of the heir prince Mohammed Bin Salman, which include ambitious national projectsThey require sustained investments. According to Bloombergif prices collapse, Riad could be forced to cut public spending or even withdraw oil from the market to defend their income. A cyclical dynamic. This episode reveals a change in the OPEC+strategy: less emphasis on high prices and more focus on recovering market share, even at the expense of lower prices. As Oilprice has detailedoil remains a market subject to temporary swings, and large oil companies are better prepared to resist. But volatility remains the sign of time. The next chapter will be written on August 3, when the OPEC+ decides if it continues with the last stage of the planned increase, the oil market faces a key question: will the OPEC+ short -term pricing stability work in long -term influence?

Linda Yaccarino leaves Elon Musk’s network without clear relay

by

Linda Yaccarino It has ceased to be the executive director of X. Executive Lor has announced In a message posted on the platform, where Elon Musk thanks the opportunity and claims to be proud of the “historical change of course” achieved in these two years. His resignation leaves the direction of one of the best known social networks and opens a new question in a company that has not stopped mutating since Musk bought it. A CEO to turn off fires. That was, in essence, the role that Linda Yaccarino assumed when Elon Musk placed it at the head of the company in May 2023. The advertising business had collapsedthe brands fled and Twitter’s reputation was minimal. Musk needed someone to return calm without stealing prominence, and chose an executive tanned in the world of media, with experience, contacts and good image. Your mission: Recover trust. Click to see the message of Linda Yaccarino in X From nbcuniversal to the jungle of X. For Yaccarino, the jump to X not only meant a company change: it was a change of ecosystem. He went from leading one of the most solid groups in the television industry to put a social network in crisis and an unpredictable owner. A position, many shadows. Yaccarino’s resignation comes months after one of the strangest movements of the Musk ecosystem: The sale of X to XAIits own artificial intelligence startup, in an unprecedented operation and loaded with opacity. In parallel, Musk intensified his presence in American politics, collaborating with the Trump administration and moving away, at least publicly, day to day in some of his companies. Tesla is no stranger to the earthquake: in recent months He has immersed himself in a difficult financial panorama. An output without successor (for the moment). At the moment there is no substitute. Not even a provisional name. The company has not made additional comments and Elon Musk, faithful to its style, has not clarified who will take over. It is a silence that weighs, especially in a company that has been trying to convince the market for years to remain viable.

Both the Watch8 and the Classic leave behind the circular box of the Watch7 to offer a more modern design that can clearly drink from the Galaxy Watch Ultra. The box is somewhat more rectangular, “cushion type” they call it from Samsung. To be able to implement it, the firm has had to redesign the interior, something that has resulted in a reduction in the thickness of 11%. We pass, therefore, from 9.7 mm to some 8.6 millimeters thick. In terms of design, the Classic model is larger, heavier. It has a rotating bezel that will allow us to move along the screens and that, incidentally, will slightly protect the panel of possible scratches. Also a small lateral rotating crown. The standard Watch8, meanwhile, has the screen in a kind of elevation on the box. The finish is more elegant and minimalist, but the clock does not have a crown or rotating bezel. Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic | Image: Samsung If we take a look at the screen, they all ride Super Amoled panels whose size will depend on the size of the box. It is curious, of course, that the classic watch8 has the same panel as the smallest watch8. Be that as it may, all models share a fairly high resolution, up to 3,000 peak brightness and a sapphire crystal to protect the daily inclement panel. That engine sounds to me Samsung Galaxy Watch8 | Image: Samsung Under the hood we have an engine that is familiar to us, basically because it is the same as that of the Watch7. Samsung has again bet on the processor Exynos W1000 of three nanometers and five nuclei, two Gigas RAM and 32 Gigas of storage that amount to 64 in the Classic. The key, of course, is in the software and in the sensors. Samsung premieres Wear os 6 with one ui 8 for watch and the juicy has its own name: Google Gemini. This will allow us to use natural voice commands to ask for information and/or do things on the fly.

At the design level, the new Samsung Galaxy Z fold7 It is quite similar to your predecessoralthough it has worked especially both in the thickness and in the weight of the device. Closed presumes 8.9mm, a thickness similar to that of a normal phone. Open … barely exceeds 4mm, madness. With 215 grams, the Z fold7 It weighs less than a good part of high -end phones. And no, we are not talking about folding, we talk about traditional format phones. That Samsung achieves a lower weight with a device of these characteristics is something to value. The design is not just the pretty face that is seen, it is also inside. Samsung has improved the hinge to make it more resistant, fine and light. A more robust aluminum is used, and the general resistance has improved. The concept is the usual, but with more sense than ever: a mobile more similar to a traditional one when it is closed, and one that remembers a light and thin tablet when it is open. A screen that grows and improves The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 exterior screen grows Until 6.4 inches, the interior until 8, and the frames are reduced slightly. The company ensures that the fold is less notable than in previous generations. Although, in our first impressions, we have noticed quite fast that inevitably follows. The two keys to the outer panel of the Samsung Galaxy Z fold7: finally has Full HD+ resolution and a “classical” appearance ratio One of the keys is in the outer panel that, being much wider, attends to a historical request to Samsung fold: to have a screen closer to what we would find on a traditional mobile. Specifically, the appearance ratio is now 21: 9. The resolution finally jumps to full HD+ (something that the previous models shouted), a Dynamic AMOLED with 120 Hz of adaptive refreshment rate. The 8 -inch interior panelhas 2184 x 1968 resolution, is also Amoled and of course has adaptive soda. The maximum brightness is 2,600 nits, an excellent figure for a mobile that, a few years ago, could well be a tablet. Samsung promises that the panel is more robust than everincreasing the thickness of the ultrafine glass that composes it, and covering it with CORNING GORILLA Glass Ceramic 2the latest Corning technology. Power and software to accompany Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite. Up to 16 GB of RAM and up to 1 TB of internal storage. All ok. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 arrives with the best market processor and a base configuration of 12 + 256 GB, with the only sin of having a 4400MAH battery. Samsung’s rivals are squeezing in The race for battery capacityalthough it will remain first hand how it yields despite its capacity. The big surprise comes in the software. Not only because these phones are released on 8, but because they arrive hand in hand with Android 16. Google released this version of stable for your pixel Just a month ago, and Samsung wanted to be the first to take her to her customization layer. This phone comes with the suite Galaxy AIand his rom is especially optimized for folding format. Of course, it will be updated for no less than seven years, both to Android versions and in security patches. Finally, at the photographic level, We have a 200 megapixel cameraa resolution that we had not seen to date in a fold. It is accompanied by an ultra wide angle of 10 megapixels, and a teleobjective of three optical increases, also of 10 megapixels. The 10 megapixel selfie camera is not lacking, both inside and outside.

Samsung returns to the burden of folding. The Korean company has just presented in New York its new batch of Galaxy Z devices that, this time, is composed of one, not by two, but by three devices: the Galaxy Z fold7, the galaxy z flip7 that occupies us in this text and his little brother Fan Edition, the Galaxy Z Flip7 Fe. The new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 is an interesting improvement with respect to the previous model: not only wins in power, but loses several millimeters thick and adds an external flexwindow screen that, now, occupies the entire front of the upper part as we have seen in the terminals more recent Motorola and XiaomiFor example. Made the presentations, we will know it better. Thus samsung money earns: the secret is on the iPhone Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 Technical Card 7 Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 dimensions and weight Folding: 75.2 x 85.5 x 13.7 mm Displayed: 75.2 x 166.7 x 6.5 mm Weight: 188 grams internal screen Dynamic Amoled 2x FullHD+ resolution (2,520 x 1,080 pixels) Format 21: 9 Refresco rate: 1-120 Hz Maximum brightness: 2,600 nits External screen Super AMOLED of 4.1 inches Resolution 1,048 x 948 pixels 60-120 Hz soda rate Maximum brightness: 2,600 nits PROCESSOR Samsung Exynos 2500 RAM 12 GB Internal storage 256/512 GB Rear camera 50 MP angular, f/1.8.

With the Galaxy Z Flip7 it has finally been updated. This screen, whose name is Flexwindow, grows up to 4.1 inches to occupy the entire front. Through that screen we can access the basic functions or make a selfie, although Samsung has not confirmed whether we can use any app or if, on the contrary, we will continue depending on Good Lock and its modules. Both this screen and the internal, the folding, have a maximum brightness of 2,600 nits. Speaking of the internal screen, we are facing a 6.9 -inch AMOLED panel that retains the elongated format 21: 9 and the FullHD+resolution. Samsung has updated the hinge, a code name Armor Flexhinge, to make it finer and Offer a softer fold. The idea is that the fold is noticed less, but we will only come out of doubt when we can put the glove and try it for ourselves. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 | Image: Samsung As for the design, Samsung continues to cut millimeters thick and passes from 14.9 and 6.9 mm (folded and displayed) of the Z flip6 at 13.7 and 6.5 mm in its new model. The weight is practically identical: 188 grams (before 187 grams). That is: it loses thickness, wins inches of screen and, as we will see later, we have also won in autonomy. The frames are made of aluminum and the rear parts (not the screen, eye) are protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2. An updated house made to the last Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 | Image: Samsung If in the galaxy z fold7 Samsung has mounted a Snapdragon 8 Elite For Galaxy, for the Z Flip7, has opted for a home -made development. Samsung is the second most important chips smelter in the world, only behind TSMC, and the Exynos 2500 He has left his ovens. This processor has been manufactured in a Samsung Foundry’s three nanometers process And it has ten nuclei: a Cortex-X5 at 3.3 GHz, two Cortex-A725 to 2.74 GHz, five Cortex-A725 to 2.36 GHz and two Cortex-A520 to 1.8 GHz. On paper, it does not paint badly. They accompany him 12 Gigas RAM and up to 512 Gigas of internal storage. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 | Image: Samsung To give life to this engine, the terminal has a battery of 4,300 mAh (300 mAh more than the previous generation) that feeds Android 16 with One UI 8 standard. Yes, the stable version of Android 16 He left last month for the Google Pixel And Samsung has not taken a month to adapt it so that its new folders get to the market with the latest the latest. This operating system is not only loaded with AI, but adds a long -awaited novelty: Samsung Dex. At last it is possible to turn a flip into a kind of work station With an interface similar to that of a computer. We also found Now Bar, Now Brief and Gemini Live which, as a novelty, now works directly on the flexwindow screen. A modest camera Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 | Image: Samsung We approach the end, but not before talking about photography. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 aspires to be the photographic mobile of the year, but its camera points to a more casual use and, above all, to selfie. In the rear we find a 50 megapixel angular with OIS and a large angle of 12 megapixels, while in the front we stayed with ten megapixels of resolution. The key of the Flip7 camera is the versatility offered by the folding format What is the key of Flip? Than thanks to the flexwindow screen We can use the main camerathat of 50 megapixels and even the wide angle, to get a selfie. That will give us … Read more
