That’s nothing out of the ordinary, but here’s the thing – the teaser video itself was “generated with the assistance of AI tools”, as the company’s disclaimer clearly notes at the bottom. That’s… interesting, to put it nicely. Why wouldn’t Samsung just share a video captured in low-light conditions with the Galaxy S26 Ultra, if the idea is to tease how good it is at that?

After smart rings and action cameras Dreame, a brand that got famous for its robotic vacuums, is expanding into the smartphone business. A couple of weeks ago at a launch event in Poland, the company showed off the Dreame RS1, Air1 and E1. Now the company’s Weibo account is posting images of a luxury Dreame Aurora that doesn’t seem to be based on any one of those three.
