Nothing Says the Phone 3 Isn’t One Big Gimmick, but I’m Not So Sure

gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-02-23 17:26:32

Nothing CEO Carl Pei wants you to know one thing: the startup’s smartphones aren’t just relying on a schtick. The Phone 3, which was finally unveiled this week after seemingly never-ending leaks and teasers, is being billed as the company’s “true flagship,” which means… to be honest, I don’t know what the hell it means. But it’s clear that Nothing sees it as its most premium phone yet, which is evident not just through its own messaging but also its starting price. The Phone 3 costs $800—more th

Leaks about the iPhone 17 have been pouring in for more than a year. We've seen reports of a new selfie camera, faster MagSafe charging and a new purple (or green) color. We've even heard rumors that Apple might change how frequently it launches new iPhone models, from once a year to twice. But when the iPhone 16 debuted, there was criticism aimed at its screen. The phone starts at $829 and still has a 60Hz display, despite most phones from competitors having high-refresh-rate screens topping o

The Three Types of Camera I Learned Every Photographer Needs to Have

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-02-23 16:36:48

I've been a professional photographer for over a decade, shooting everything from editorial photo stories, to product photography and landscape, travel and street photography in my personal work. In that time, I've learned there are three main types of camera that all photographers need to own. And I'm not talking about brands, like a Sony or a Canon, or even sensor types, like a full frame or an APS C. I mean a deeper level of camera selection -- the types of camera that offer fundamentally dif

Big tech companies are always looking for new ways to tie us into their ecosystems, but there is something to be said for the simplicity of a single monthly subscription. Apple One bundles several Apple services into one payment, which is cheaper than subscribing to the same services individually. If you already subscribe to Apple Fitness+ and News+, it’s a great deal for you.

2 It should have been a night for Jim Leslie to savor. On July 8, 1976, the Louisiana State Senate passed what was known as the Right to Work Bill. One of the most fiercely debated pieces of legislation in decades, the law did away with mandatory union membership and allowed businesses to hire nonunion workers. Given the interests involved, this was a staggering achievement. Labor had a muscular presence in Louisiana, largely because it was controlled by organized crime. Developers were ordere

RFK Jr.’s plan to put ‘AI’ in everything is a disaster

In a 92-minute interview with Tucker Carlson on Monday, RFK Jr. drilled down on his vision for the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Artificial intelligence — arguably, a uselessly vague umbrella term — came up multiple times.

Let’s start with the term “agent” itself. Right now, it’s being slapped on everything from simple scripts to sophisticated AI workflows. There’s no shared definition, which leaves plenty of room for companies to market basic automation as something much more advanced. That kind of “agentwashing” doesn’t just confuse customers; it invites disappointment.
