If you hang out in certain quadrants of the internet, you could be forgiven for believing that smartwatches are dying. (And look, I get it: as I prep for a “dumbphone detox” in December, one of the things I look forward to most is downgrading to a dumbwatch as well.)

To fully understand the first folding iPhone, we need to revisit another first from 16 years ago. No, not the 2007 iPhone keynote: I’m talking about the iPad debut from January 2010. It was buzzy and exciting in its own way, but even then, people seemed to grasp that it wasn’t the sea change the iPhone had represented. Partially that’s because at launch it was essentially what its critics called it – an oversized iPod Touch. Its main advantage was that it was ... big.

[IPHONE DUO DISPLAY DEEP DIVE] I'm fairly accustomed to spending time with cutting-edge pieces of technology; a much rarer treat is getting the opportunity to talk with the people who brought that tech into existence. During the Apple Event in Cupertino back in September, I got to sit down with three such people: VP of iPhone Product Design, Rich Dinh; Senior Product Manager for iPhone, Piyush Pratik; and JP Guillou, Senior Director of Display Technology for iPhone.
Topics: Hello from Cupertino · Why is now the right time for a folding iPhone? · Aspect ratio: why so squatty? · Apple vs Samsung · "Stunningly satin" – the nanotexture · How durable is the Duo?

[MRMOBILE'S XIAOMI 18 FOLD REVIEW] Everybody’s talking about the iPhone Duo – and rightly so: Apple’s first foldable is the shot in the arm the category has needed for years, and my early look last month has had me yearning for its late-October release.
Topics: iPhone Duo from an alternate dimension · Where ya from? · Hardware as hot as the color · Lucid · Software as frustrating as always · More cameras, better photos

[MRMOBILE’S TRAVEL TECH 2026-27] Even in the ethereal otherworld of endless in-betweens that is the modern-day airport, there's work to be done. So during a lull between the waves of existential dread and ruminating on regrets ... I started thinking about all the stuff I take with me that carries me through trips like this.

I came to California to see the new iPhones, blitzed back to the Big Apple for just long enough to taste the autumn air, and now I'm right back on the left coast to try on some new ... Specs. Nearly the whole time, I've had the latest Apple review device in my pocket, alongside the latest Pixel phone – so join me for another Road Trip Review, featuring another Android user's take on the iPhone ... this time, the iPhone 18 Pro!

[GOOGLE PIXEL 11 PRO FOLD REVIEW] I wrote this review entirely on the Pixel 11 Pro Fold. Not just for the gimmick of it; I wanted to test all the various inputs available, from the new Rambler voice dictation to the teleprompter in the creative suite – and of course the venerable two-pocket laptop.

We’ve lived in a world where you can fold your phone in half for a half-decade now – and frankly, I expected Apple to jump into the fray much sooner. But this is a company that likes to wait until it has something new to offer, and the iPhone Duo has a lot to add to the conversation. From Apple HQ in Cupertino I’m MrMobile; join me for a first look at the first folding iPhone!

[SO YOU'RE THINKING OF BUYING A FOLDING PHONE] So! Six years after they first hit the scene, you’re finally thinking of buying your first folding phone! Maybe that’s because Apple is finally joining the fray, or maybe it’s because of the growing realization that foldables are actually good now.

[SAMSUNG GALAXY FOLD8 ULTRA REVIEW] Here’s a little peek behind the MrMobile curtain: I’d planned to publish this video before my Galaxy Flip8 Review. But then I remembered that I’d booked a sightseeing cruise to Alaska, and frankly there was just no way I was entrusting those once-in-a-lifetime memories to a phone camera without optical zoom. So, I flipped the script.

MrMobile's got tech trinkets for your eyes, ears and other senses in this episode of the Gadget Grab Bag, but let’s be honest: you’re mostly here for the dancing droid, right? Kicking us off is the HONOR ROBOT Phone with its bold blend of gimbaled action camera and smartphone. Whether that's truly "hot stuff" will depend on the readings taken by the next gadget in the rundown, the TOPDON TC002C Duo that turns your phone into a thermal camera.

Summertime. It's supposed to be the season of unplugging; of outside. Getting hot; getting wet; getting off the productivity tools and onto a phone that maybe encourages you to use it a little bit less. I’m MrMobile and I normally carry a Motorola Razr Ultra – but I’ve spent the past week living life on the Flip side! This is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 Review.

In the strange world of 2026, there are a lot of phones you can buy if you want to use your phone less. BlackBerry lookalikes with e-paper screens; smartphones with side-switches to toggle temporary temperance; and full-on dumbphones for the fancy, the frugal, and most tiers in between.

If your social feeds have been dominated by a strangely squat smartphone this summer, you have Samsung to thank. Even though the Galaxy Fold8 is far from the first widebody to wade into these waters, it is the first of a new wave of foldables – and for now, it’s also the best. I’m MrMobile and this is my next ... nearly-$2000 phone!

[SAMSUNG GALAXY FOLD8 / GALAXY FLIP8 / GALAXY FOLD8 ULTRA 2026 HANDS-ON] It’s my favorite time of year: new-foldable summer. Samsung’s new season hinges on updates to its Flip, its Fold – and a little something in between.
