The final smartphone roundup of July was led by two notable leak stories: a detailed preview of the upcoming vivo S2 and fresh battery information tied to Samsung's Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra. The Week 31 recap highlighted how both brands stayed in the spotlight as July came to a close.
According to the leak, the vivo S2 is expected to launch in India on August 6. The phone is said to feature a 6.83-inch 1.5K curved AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, along with MediaTek's Dimensity 7360 chipset. The trimmed report also points to a 50MP spec among the leaked hardware details, suggesting a camera-focused talking point ahead of the announcement.
Samsung was also part of the week's biggest discussions, with battery details for the Galaxy S27 Pro and Galaxy S27 Ultra appearing in leaks. While the snippet does not include the full battery figures, the mention was enough to place both flagship models among the most closely watched devices in the recap.
Taken together, the Week 31 review showed how late-July smartphone news was driven by early specifications and component leaks rather than official launches. With vivo's expected India event approaching and Samsung's next premium phones already attracting attention, the final week of the month offered an early look at what could shape the next wave of device announcements.
