Kyle Kucharski/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways Twelve South's HiRise 2 Deluxe It's a premium, 2-in-1 Qi2 wireless charging solution that's as minimal as it is practical.

Case in point: the new HiRise 2 Deluxe charging stand, a 2-in-1 device that

CISA confirms hackers are actively exploiting critical ‘Citrix Bleed 2’ bug

U.S. cybersecurity agency CISA says hackers are actively exploiting a critical-rated security flaw in a widely used Citrix product, and has given other federal government departments just one day to patch their systems. Security researchers have dubbed the bug “Citrix Bleed 2” for its similarity to a 2023 security flaw in Citrix NetScaler, a networking product that large companies and governments rely on for allowing their staff to remotely access apps and other resources on their internal netw

3 excellent Pixel accessories I’d buy before the end of Prime Day (I already have them!)

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority Prime Day is almost over — I know this because I’m rushing to research the last few items I need to buy before their price goes back up. You, though, don’t have to do the extensive research because I’ve done it for you. I have three excellent accessories that I use every day with my Pixel 9 Pro XL, Watch 3, and Buds 2 Pro, and I’d recommend them in a heartbeat. Some of these are review units that I’d buy myself if I didn’t have them, some are items I’ve bought

The zero-day that could've compromised every Cursor and Windsurf user

A security researcher from Koi Security stumbled upon a critical zero-day buried deep in the infrastructure powering today’s AI coding tools. Had it been exploited, a non-sophisticated attacker could’ve hijacked over 10 million machines with a single stroke. AI coding assistants like Cursor and Windsurf have exploded in popularity, promising supercharged productivity for developers around the world. Behind their sleek interfaces lies a shared foundation: community-built VS Code forks and an ope

I take this solar GPS tracker on all my off-grid adventures - and it's on sale

ZDNET's key takeaways The Garmin eTrex Solar is available now for $228, while the eTrex SE without solar sells for $149.

CISA tags Citrix Bleed 2 as exploited, gives agencies a day to patch

The U.S. Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency has confirmed active exploitation of the CitrixBleed 2 vulnerability (CVE-2025-5777) in Citrix NetScaler ADC and Gateway and is giving federal agencies one day to apply fixes. Such a short deadline for installing the patches is unprecedented since CISA released the Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) catalog, showing the severity of the attacks exploiting the security issue. The agency added the flaw to its Known Exploited Vulnerabiliti

At Amazon's biggest data center, everything is supersized for AI

A year ago, a 1,200-acre stretch of farmland outside New Carlisle, Ind., was an empty cornfield. Now, seven Amazon data centers rise up from the rich soil, each larger than a football stadium. Over the next several years, Amazon plans to build around 30 data centers at the site, packed with hundreds of thousands of specialized computer chips. With hundreds of thousands of miles of fiber connecting every chip and computer together, the entire complex will form one giant machine intended just for

Some arguments against a land value tax (2024)

To many people, the land value tax (LVT) has earned the reputation of being the "perfect tax." In theory, it achieves a rare trifecta: generating government revenue without causing deadweight loss, incentivizing the productive development of land by discouraging unproductive speculation, and disproportionately taxing the wealthy, who tend to own the most valuable land. That said, I personally think the land value tax is overrated. While I'm not entirely against it—and I think that several of th

The ‘Murderbot’ Finale Was Note-Perfect

Murderbot wrapped up its season today, bringing the Apple TV+ adaptation of Martha Wells’ first Murderbot Diaries story, All Systems Red, to a close. If you’ve read the 2017 novella, you know the show stayed true to Wells’ ending—perfectly setting up that just-announced season two, something creators Chris and Paul Weitz told io9 they’ve had in mind all along. Episode 10, “The Perimeter,” is unlike earlier episodes in that it doesn’t immediately pick up right where we left off. A little bit of

New leak spills Google’s full pricing strategy for the entire Pixel 10 lineup

Google is expected to launch the Pixel 10 series in the coming weeks, and we already know a lot about the device. We’ve seen leaked renders of the three devices and even a live image of the Pixel 10 Pro . Now, prices for the Pixel 10 series have leaked, and it’s good news for some regions at least. The leaker notes that the EU pricing for the upcoming Pixel phones is the same as last year. However, given the wildly fluctuating tariff situation, it’s unclear what the pricing will be in the US.

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 just sold me on a foldable iPhone

For years, I’ve been snickering at foldable phones, the perpetual “next big thing” that never quite gets here. And while I still think Samsung is mostly winning in this market by walkover, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 might have just made Apple’s case for what a foldable iPhone could look like. And I like it. The double-stacked tradeoff was always a dealbreaker Ever since its first edition, Samsung’s flagship foldable has looked to me like a bulky prototype that somehow escaped the lab. Sure, the compa

Drop Into Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and 4, Now on Xbox Game Pass

The Tony Hawk games were some of my favorites when I was growing up. The soundtracks helped form my musical taste and the games helped propel me and my friends to learn to skateboard. So I'm grabbing my (virtual) deck and returning to some familiar gaps and rails in the revamped Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and 4, which are on Xbox Game Pass now as one game.

The original Pixel Fold is over $1,000 off on the last day of Prime Day

is an editor covering deals and commerce. He joined in 2018, and served as commerce editor at Polygon until May 2025. Not enough foldable phones are priced for people who just want to try them out without going broke. We used to love pointing readers to deals on the Microsoft Surface Duo, which have since gone extinct, it seems. And, the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip FE? $900 isn’t all that cheap, actually. So, this Prime Day deal on the original Google Pixel Fold will have to do. The 256GB versio

Samsung says it could’ve charged more for its already expensive foldable phones

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung mobile chief TM Roh says the company absorbed the increased production costs associated with its new foldable phones. Roh claimed that these costs are due to “significant innovations” in the new devices. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 starts at $1,099 while the Galaxy Z Fold 7 starts at $1,999. Samsung launched its new foldable phones this week, and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 has the same price as last year’s model. Unfortunately, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is more exp

Samsung may be rethinking the Galaxy S26 lineup, and the clues are hiding in model numbers

Lanh Nguyen / Android Authority TL;DR A new leak shows the base Galaxy S26 with a notable jump in its model number (SM-S942), suggesting potentially significant hardware changes. The expected model number for the Galaxy S26 Plus has not yet surfaced, leading to speculation that Samsung might skip that variant. Leaks hint that all upcoming models — Galaxy S26, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra — may focus on being thinner than their predecessors. Samsung just wrapped up the launch of the new Galaxy Z F

Google’s foldable Pixel phones are in serious trouble

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The foldable Android market got a lot more interesting this week. At its latest Unpacked event on July 9, Samsung unveiled a trio of new folding phones. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 ushers in the most impressive foldable hardware from Samsung ever, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 gives Samsung’s flip phone the larger cover screen we’ve waited years for, and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE adds a much-needed affordable option to Samsung’s foldable lineup. But while the new Fold and Flips a

Wild Galaxy S26 Ultra leak points to a massively upgraded 200MP camera

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A leaker has claimed that the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra could get a Sony-made 200MP camera. This camera would be notably larger than the 200MP main camera used on the S25 Ultra, suggesting improved image quality. This would be an uncharacteristic move by Samsung, as it’s typically been conservative with hardware upgrades. The Galaxy S25 Ultra has the same 200MP main camera seen on Samsung’s previous two Ultra phones, and we weren’t expecting an upgrade in

Samsung’s budget Galaxy Z Flip is here, but it’s not what I was hoping for

Samsung’s recent generations have taught me one thing: I love its Fan Edition lineup. From traditional smartphones to tablets to wearables, it’s won me over time and again, offering just the right mix of specs and price to make sense for those who want a flagship experience without the cost. And, when I heard that it might be expanding to include a foldable phone for the first time, you better believe I was excited. After all, I have a soft spot for anything and everything that flips, and would

Why no S Pen support just killed my interest in the Galaxy Z Fold 7

“Writing is learning!” That’s a core belief my primary school headmistress instilled in me when she spoke to the class before the soon-to-follow series of tests. Over the last 20-plus years, I have diligently followed her wisdom, and writing has been crucial in distilling my thoughts. This tendency also influences my inclination towards devices that let me use a pen-like contraption on digital screens — the Galaxy Z Fold being one of them. However, as Samsung introduces the newest foldable, the

Squid Game Creator Unveils Scrapped Ending Fans Are Calling Better Than the Original

Squid Game creator Hwang Dong-hyuk has revealed that season 3 almost had an enormously different ending -- an ending that might have gone over better with fans who are still divided over how the hit series wrapped. In a recent interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Hwang said he originally wrote an ending where Player 456, Seong Gi-hun, leaves the deadly games behind for good. That's a huge contrast to the version that actually aired, in which Gi-hun sacrifices his life in the end for the new P

T-Mobile Is Bringing Starlink Satellite Access to Your Phone, Even if You’re on a Different Carrier

Going off-grid might soon be a thing of the past, as T-Mobile’s partnership with SpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet service gets ready to launch on July 23. The direct-to-cell messaging service, called T-Satellite, will also be available to AT&T and Verizon cellphone customers. T-Mobile says its goal is to "eliminate mobile dead zones for good" by way of 657 Starlink satellites that'll be used exclusively for cellphone service. T-Satellite has been in beta testing since December 2024, with ne
