New proof dramatically compresses space needed for computation

Once upon a time computers filled entire rooms, reading numbers from spinning tapes and churning them through wires to do chains of basic arithmetic. Today they slip into our pockets, performing in a tiny fraction of a second what used to take hours. But even as chips shrink and gain speed, theorists are flipping the question from how much computation space we can pack into a machine to how little is enough to get the job done. This inquiry lies at the heart of computational complexity, a measu

I instantly improved Samsung Gallery’s search using its hidden menu, and you can too

Andy Walker / Android Authority Samsung devices are nothing if not goldmines for treasure hunters, particularly those dealing in hidden menus. Just glossing through Good Lock and its myriad modules indicates how customizable One UI is. However, not every new feature requires an external download. Often, these options are hidden within the stock skin — you need to know where to look. Do you use Samsung Gallery as your default gallery app? 88 votes Yes, it's my default gallery app on my Samsung

Latest Fold 7 S Pen rumors add a confusing new twist to Samsung’s stylus solution

TL;DR Samsung’s been rumored to be moving to a new technology for S Pen stylus input, starting with the Fold 7. While it earlier sounded like we might get a stylus with a built-in battery, the latest rumor suggests that won’t happen. The Fold 7 could even be compatible with old S Pens, but experiencing different input latency. What the heck is Samsung up to with the technology powering its S Pen stylus? A while back, we heard rumors that the Galaxy phone manufacturer was considering a new tra

I’ll only upgrade to the Galaxy Watch 8 if it focuses on these 2 features

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority I’ve used several smartwatches throughout my career, switching between devices to match my changing priorities. However, the one smartwatch I always return to is my Galaxy Watch 4. Now paired with a Galaxy smartphone, it’s become the center of my ecosystem. Samsung’s first new-generation Wear OS watch launched in 2021. Now, nearly four years later, I still feel little temptation to upgrade. While the watch is starting to show its age, as its chipped exterior

What's driving Wall Street stablecoin interest? Trillions up for grabs in the future and banks getting ready for it

After a brief pullback this week, shares of stablecoin issuer and recent IPO darling Circle were in rally mode again, soaring double-digits on a percentage basis during trading on Thursday and ending the day up close to 8%, after having moved up by more than 600% percent since its debut on the New York Stock Exchange earlier this month.

Samsung’s Project Moohan XR headset could be similar to Vision Pro in more ways than one

Lanh Nguyen / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung will reportedly procure some displays for its upcoming Project Moohan headset from Sony. Sony also produced displays for the Apple Vision Pro.

Samsung and Google are openly collaborating to create the first extended reality (XR) headset based on Android. The headset, codenamed Project Moohan, is expected to be unveiled some time in 2025, an

The Galaxy Watch 8 may ruin my favorite thing about Samsung smartwatches

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority Leaks don’t usually take the wind out of my sails, but the latest details about Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Watch lineup came close. According to renders posted by trusted leaker Evan Blass, the Galaxy Watch 8, Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, and the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2025 will each feature the same squircle design that debuted with the original Galaxy Watch Ultra, and, to put it softly, that’s a massive disappointment. I wasn’t a fan of the Ultra’s shape at launch (o

The best Android 16 features that are already live in One UI 8 beta

Samsung could be ditching the S Pen as you know it — for a very good reason

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s already rumored to be adopting new, active S Pen tracking tech for the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Now a new report claims Samsung will use the same new system on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. While this would result in a thicker stylus, one side effect might be opening the door for Qi2 magnetic support. Modern smartphones may have the PDAs of yesteryear in their DNA, but over the past couple decades we’ve seen advancement after advancement take this hardware to

Gareth Edwards Toiled Over Using John Williams’ Music in ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’

One of the weirdest choices made in the previous three Jurassic World films was not to lean on John Williams’ iconic score from the original Jurassic Park. On the one hand, you understand the score elicits emotions very specific to that one movie and won’t always necessarily line up with the story being told. But, on the other hand, it’s a Jurassic Park movie; hit us with that John Williams goodness. Jurassic World Rebirth, which opens in theaters July 2, makes use of Williams’ themes at severa

Samsung may build Qualcomm’s most advanced chip ever for the Galaxy S26 series

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung could reportedly fabricate one variant of the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 for Qualcomm. While the normal chip would be made with a 3nm TSMC process, Samsung’s could be a 2nm chip. This 2nm Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 may debut with the Galaxy S26. There’s arguably no single component that more influences how a smartphone comes together than the choice of its system-on-a-chip (SoC). And while a phone is a whole lot more than just how fast it can crunch numbe

Your Samsung Galaxy Watch is getting a big upgrade for free - 4 features I can't wait to try

Samsung’s next budget earbuds sound like they have incredible battery life

One year later with the Galaxy Z Fold 6: I'm praying Samsung fixes these 3 shortcomings

Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET It's not a hot take to say that Samsung hasn't changed the core design of its Galaxy Z Fold series since day one. While the cover screen has grown over time, the overall candy bar-style form factor has remained mostly untouched. While brands like Honor, Vivo, and Google have released slimmer foldables, Samsung has stuck to steady, incremental upgrades, resulting in a sturdy hinge that holds at almost any angle and polished software for productivity.

A good smartwatch isn’t cheap though, and the Galaxy Watch Ultra starts at $650. Well, thanks to a great deal from Samsung directly right now, you can actually save $150 on the Galaxy Watch
