AYN Odin 3 and Thor could be the upgrade that retro gamers have been waiting for

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-12-22 15:32:55

TL;DR AYN has teased two new handheld gaming devices, the Odin 3 and a new handset named Thor. Both devices are confirmed to be Android handhelds, and not x86. More information about the devices will be released in the coming weeks. AYN’s Odin 2 handheld lineup has been extremely popular, primarily due to the decently capable Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 on board, which makes them perfect for emulating demanding retro consoles like the Nintendo Switch and others.

What iPad mini & iPadOS 26 can teach us about the future of iOS

9to5mac.com Fernando Silva 2025-12-22 15:00:00

The moment Apple announced iPadOS 26 at WWDC, I rushed to install the developer beta on my M4 iPad Pro. And for the first time in years, it felt like Apple was finally putting iPad users first. We got features we’ve been asking for since iPadOS split from iOS: a fresh new look, Mac-like windowing, a smarter Files app, and more. But what surprised me wasn’t the iPad Pro experience. It was just how many iPads supported all of these features, including the iPad mini. After installing iPadOS 26 on

NVIDIA is working on a new AI chip meant for the Chinese market that's more powerful than the H20, according to Reuters.

A random report from an account with zero track-record for anything claims that the iPhone 18 will drop the Camera Control button as too few people are using it.
