I Tested the Oppo Find N5, and This Is What a Foldable Should Feel Like

cnet.com Abrar Al-Heeti 2025-06-29 23:00:00

The Oppo Find N5 appears to have achieved what foldables have long strived for, at least from a design perspective: It's ridiculously thin and feels like a normal phone when closed, with the added perk of a spacious, (almost) crease-less internal screen that's easy to navigate. Oppo's latest foldable, unveiled Thursday, is being marketed as "the world's thinnest book-style foldable when closed." And indeed, it measures only 8.93mm thick when closed – which, for reference, is just slightly thick

Netflix's 'Leaving Soon' Label Is Enough to Give Some Very Random Titles a Major Boost

cnet.com Liz Kocan 2025-06-30 00:00:08

Every week, Netflix reveals its Top 10 lists, ranking its most-viewed movies and TV shows. While many of these top titles are expected, others can surprise; here's where we try to make sense of those seemingly random hits. "I read this post on Reddit" is always a risky way to start a conversation, but here I go… I recently saw a Reddit thread from a few years ago where a poster suggested that Netflix create an entire category on its homepage to showcase content that's leaving the platform soon.

Apple's iPhone 16E Brings Apple Intelligence Features With a Cheaper Price Tag

cnet.com Abrar Al-Heeti 2025-06-30 00:00:11

Until now, Apple Intelligence has been reserved for the cool kids – aka, the people with the latest, most powerful iPhones. Now, the $599 (£599, AU$999) iPhone 16E is here to shake that up. Apple's latest version of its budget phone line invariably cuts corners when it comes to design and camera specs, but it doesn't hold back with AI. Equipped with an A18 chip -- just like the iPhone 16 and 16 Plus -- the more affordable phone can power a suite of Apple Intelligence features including notifica

The world’s thinnest foldable phone doesn’t come cheap

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2025-06-29 23:06:35

Oppo has launched the Find N5, the thinnest foldable phone in the world. It’s launching in markets worldwide, including across Europe and Asia, at $2,499 SGD (about $1,867 USD). That’s more expensive than either the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 or Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold in Singapore, though comparable once you adjust for storage. There won’t be any US release at all though, as sister brand OnePlus has already confirmed that it has no plans to launch a foldable phone this year. The Find N5 is slimme

Oppo Find N5 review: the final evolution of foldables

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2025-06-29 23:16:23

Oppo’s Find N5 feels like the end game for foldable phones. Not because it’s make or break for a segment of the phone market that never quite took off like manufacturers hoped it would, but because I simply don’t know where we go from here. There’s scarcely room to make the phone thinner without ditching USB-C entirely; battery life, performance, and even cameras are now on par with other flagship phones; and this time, Oppo even managed to fit wireless charging and water resistance in, too.

Oppo’s new foldable can remote control a Mac

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2025-06-29 23:37:05

Today Oppo launched the Find N5, the thinnest book-style foldable phone yet, but there’s more to the phone than a slim design: it’s capable of connecting to a Mac for file transfers and even remote control. It’s not quite the first Android phone to do so, but it is the only one you can buy outside of China. To link the Find N5 with a Mac you first have to install Oppo’s O Plus Connect app on the Mac, which will be available from Oppo’s website — I’ve been testing out a beta version. Linking the

The iPhone is done with home buttons — here’s why I’ll miss it

theverge.com Jay Peters 2025-06-30 00:00:00

For the first time since the iPhone’s debut in 2007, Apple no longer sells a smartphone with a home button. The iPhone 16E announced yesterday removes it. The removal was long overdue, having been surpassed by all touchscreen controls many years ago. But while the home button’s time is over, it leaves behind an important legacy. The home button was crucial to the first iPhone, but it was also jarring; no other phone at that time had basically no buttons. It was both a gamble and a necessary inn

Humane wrapped its bet against the iPhone in the cloak of AI and lost

The Ai Pin is officially dead. Parts of Humane have been sold to HP, and the Ai Pin will cease to function in a week. Cause of death? An outdated and undercooked bet against the iPhone made by former Apple engineers that Humane tried to disguise as artificial intelligence hardware. Bloomberg reports that HP has agreed to acquire assets from Humane for $116 million. Humane’s sole product, Ai Pin, won’t become an HP product.

iPhone 16e has a binned version of the A18 chip – but what does that mean?

The new iPhone 16e, which was announced by Apple earlier today, features the A18 chip. In theory, this is the same chip that powers the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus. However, as already reported by 9to5Mac, there is a slight difference in the chip inside the iPhone 16e, which suggests that Apple is using a binned chip in the less expensive model. But what exactly does this mean? What is a binned chip? Before the iPhone 16e, there were already two different versions of the A18 chip. One of them

The iPhone 16e's lack of MagSafe doesn't make sense

The iPhone 16e, Apple's replacement for the iPhone SE, has plenty of features that make it a good deal, from its A18 chip to the fact that it actually comes with an OLED screen. But one glaring omission in its spec sheet makes no sense: Why doesn't this $599 phone have MagSafe? Despite looking a lot like an iPhone 14, and using components that are similar to the iPhone 16, the iPhone 16e doesn't support MagSafe or fast wireless charging.

Broken legs and ankles heal better if you walk on them within weeks

Twenty years ago my husband, Mark, broke his left ankle and was in a cast and on crutches for nearly two months. Last year he broke the other ankle. But this time, after surgery, his doctor surprised us by instructing Mark to walk on it two weeks later. It turns out the standard advice to stay off a broken leg bone for at least six weeks is based less on scientific evidence and more on cultural caution—physicians like to play it safe.
