I can't go back to grainy night vision after testing this security camera

ZDNET's key takeaways The EufyCam S3 Pro is available separately for $220 or in a two-pack with the HomeBase 3 for $550.

Smart Cameras Power a Robot Umpire at MLB All-Stars for the First Time. Here's How the Challenges Went

The ABS uses Hawk-Eye cameras, a technology increasingly common in games with high-speed objects. The cameras judge how a ball trave

The Galaxy S25 FE might outpace the base S25 in one key area

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A regulatory filing has apparently listed the Galaxy S25 FE with 45W wired charging speeds.

Samsung Galaxy S26 series leak hints at an Edge future (again)

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra will reportedly gain a 200MP main camera and a 50MP tele camera. Samsung’s middle Galaxy S26 model apparently has a 50MP ultrawide camera, much like the Galaxy S25 Edge.
