British teens are turning their back on traditional sources for news, such as terrestrial TV. Why does it matter? An [Ofcom report]( reveals that Instagram, TikTok and YouTube have overtaken TV channels as the most popular destinations for news coverage. What's my take? The Ofcom report looks at news consumption in the UK and finds that teenagers are consuming news through social video platforms rather than traditional TV broadcasts. Given how long teens spend on their phones, that probably comes as no surprise. What's more interesting is that this is only really about the platform of choice: they're still heading to sources like the BBC to get news, just not as you'd traditionally expect. This is a positive reflection of how media companies have diversified the delivery of their products, and with social media often accused of being part of the fake news chain, these findings are actually reassuring. The bigger picture is that, in the future, the news is going to be less about watching BBC One at 10pm, but how it will be integrated into the rest of your social (media) life. First Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 press shots leak 91Mobiles What's happened? Evan Blass has [published]( a couple of shots of the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4, revealing what we can expect from the new folding smartphones. Why does it matter? Samsung has confirmed it will hold an event on 10 August where it is expected to announce the Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Z Flip 4 and Galaxy Watch 5 models. What's my take? In what feels like a never-ending drip feed of leaks, we now have what look like official images showing us the folding phones coming from Samsung next month. That second detail is the important part of the puzzle, because the confirmation of its launch on 10 August means that there's not long to wait until we have a new Galaxy Unpacked event and lots of fresh hardware. So, if you're excited about Samsung's devices you don't have long to wait - and if you can't wait for people to stop talking about them and move on, then again, you don't have long to wait. - [Here's everything you need to know about the Galaxy Z Fold 4]( - [And this is what you need to know about the Galaxy Z Flip 4]( Brompton Electric P Line review: Take a load off Pocket-lint What's happened? Brompton's approach to new bikes means that its electrification efforts come in more of a trickle than a flood. Its frames only get the electric bike treatment when Brompton is completely happy that everything will work on a long-term basis. The latest to pass that test is the P Line. Our quick verdict In terms of weight, the Electric P Line is a welcome improvement compared to the C Line, making it ideal for new customers. This isn't really one to consider if you're already a Brompton e-bike owner, though. [Read our review](.
