vivo has officially launched the Y500 4G in Pakistan and Nepal, featuring a substantial 8,100 mAh battery. The device sports a 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate.

Meanwhile, Samsung is rumored to be making significant internal adjustments to achieve crease-free displays on the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8 and Fold8 Ultra, slated for a July 22nd launch in London.
