Summertime is usually slow for Android news, but this week there were a few interesting stories. It might sound like old news at this point, but Samsung announced that theGalaxy Fold’s design flawshave been fixed, and it’sset for release in September. Not to be outdone, HUAWEI’s CEO was spotted in an airport with the Mate X in what wastotally not a planned event.

We also got our first look at theASUS ROG Phone 2, which sports someseriously impressive specsand somesuspiciously Switch-like accessories. If the Chinese prices are anything to go byit won’t break the bank, either. We also heard about a follow up to one of the most disappointing devices of last year, theRed Hydrogen 2.
