Canon has unveiled two new mirrorless cameras, [the EOS R8 and R50](. Why does it matter? The former is a lightweight full-frame camera and the latter is a more budget-oriented APS-C body, joining the R7 and R10 as the brand's RF-mount APS-C options. What's my take? There was a time when a full-frame camera involved parting with serious cash. We're not saying that $1,499 is cheap, but it still feels like these cameras are now a lot more accessible. That could be a price that attracts photographers who feel it's time to step up to the larger sensor to unlock more potential in their images. At the same time, Canonnwants to appeal to a legion of "content creators" with the R50. As such, it's designed to appeal to those who might be using a phone and want to move things up a notch.  Did OnePlus tease its first foldable phone? ADAMYA SHARMA/ANDROID AUTHORITY What's happened? It appears that, during the launch event for the OnePlus 11, the company also gave us a quick teaser for an upcoming device which - so far - it hasn't acknowledged publicly: [its first foldable smartphone](. Why does it matter? Watch the livestream on YouTube and you won't see this, but if you watch to the end of the video you'll hear the company state that it has some exclusive products to share with its audience who attended the event. What's my take? OnePlus has been a little sneaky here, saving this tease for the audience rather than sharing it in public - but it helps to build the hype and give us an idea of what's to come. A folding phone perhaps shouldn't be a surprise considering that Oppo is pushing out folding devices and the product path of both brands is closely linked. We'd expect this phone to launch in China first, but could well make an appearance at IFA 2023 towards the end of the year.  A MESSAGE FROM OUR SPONSOR Never run out of power with Oukitel Abearl P5000 and Oukitel Abearl P5000 Pro Generators OUKITEL It's always a good idea to have a backup source of power.

Once the plucky upstart with phenomenally good phones for the money, OnePlus is now fully a sub-brand of Oppo, launching all manner of devices. The latest creation is the OnePlus 11. The Pro naming has gone, and - as a device - it borrows elements from previous phones to create a device that's something like a happy flagship middle ground. Our quick verdict In an everyday performance sense, the OnePlus 11 5G is the most complete flagship OnePlus phone experience the company has delivered so far. The display is genuinely fantastic, with great detail, colours and refresh rates, plus the phone is fast, has great bloat-free software and very speedy charging.
