Engadget Recaps 5 Reviews Led by Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 and DJI Osmo Pocket 4P

3 articles · Updated · Engadget · Aug 1

Summary

  • Five recent Engadget reviews highlight Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8, which the outlet says benefits from a shorter, wider redesign that makes the standard model more appealing than the Ultra.
  • Meta’s new in-house smart glasses are pitched as a lower-cost option, though Engadget says their design feels less polished than pricier Optics or Oakley variants.
  • DJI’s dual-lens Osmo Pocket 4P wins praise as a solid evolution of the Pocket line, but limited US availability could force buyers to pay inflated resale prices.
  • Canon’s EOS R6 V is framed as a strong vlogging camera thanks to RAW video, stabilization and autofocus, while still falling short as a photography-first hybrid.
  • Alienware’s new 15-inch budget gaming laptop rounds out the recap, with Engadget arguing its compromises are easier to accept at a lower price point.
