The iPhone 17 Air Could Hint at Apple's Foldable Future

Anticipation is high for the launch of the next iPhone, and so are expectations. Rumors have been swirling for months about the upcoming lineup, which most notably may include a thinner model dubbed the iPhone 17 Air. But speculation isn't stopping there; what Apple reveals this fall could hint at what it has in store for next year, too. Thin phones are undoubtedly having a moment, with companies like Samsung, Huawei, Honor and Oppo debuting slimmer devices in the name of novelty -- and slappi

Apple rolls out limited AI chatbot test in its Support app

A few weeks ago, a few strings of code in the Apple Support app showed that it could soon get a “Support Assistant,” based on generative models. The assistant is now live, as a limited experiment. As first spotted by MacRumors reader Gatlyn, Apple has rolled out an early preview of the Support Assistant through a “Chat” tab that is being made available for select users within the Apple Support app. Upon tapping it, the user is greeted with a splash screen with the following instructions, and t

Samsung Acknowledges Its 'Upcoming' Tri-Fold Phone on Earnings Call

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 may have just come out, but it appears the company is already teasing its next foldable phone that takes things to a whole other level.

It also acknowledged the imminent arrival of its Project Moohan mixed reality headset, which it's developing with Google. Samsung reportedly said it's "preparing

Titan sub implosion caused by absolutely bonkers “toxic workplace environment”

In a 300-plus page final report released today, the US Coast Guard analyzed the 2023 Titan sub implosion from every conceivable angle and came to a clear conclusion: OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush was a dangerous and deeply unpleasant boss. His company used "intimidation tactics" to sidestep regulatory scrutiny, it was a "toxic" workplace, and its safety culture was "critically flawed." The Titan itself was "undocumented, unregistered, non-certificated, [and] unclassed." As for Rush, he managed to

Google is rolling out a fix for Pixel back button issues

The issues appear to have started popping up shortly after the official release of Android 16 in June. Ever since that update, the user said that navigation has been “a complete mess” and that they ran into issues with buttons being “completely unresponsive” or delays of “over 30 seconds” on their Pixel 8 Pro. Another user said they had to occasionally press the back button “a few times” on their Pixel 9 to get the phone to register it. The swipe gesture to navigate back also occasionally stoppe

Teardown confirms Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a repair nightmare, but maybe that’s the point

TL;DR iFixit gives the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 a pitiful repair score in its latest teardown. Fragile inner components, glued batteries, and a hard-to-replace screen make DIY fixes tough. It could be that the same design choices may help the phone survive extreme durability tests. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 impressed last week in JerryRigEverything’s notorious bend test, which is just as well. According to iFixit, if anything does go wrong, actually repairing the device is a different kind o

Tesla Investors Are Suing Elon Musk Over His Disastrous Robotaxi Debut

It's a major escalation, highlighting significant discontent, even among its own investors, with the way the EV maker's early testing of its long-awaited autonomous ride-hailing service has panne

Some Sonos Speakers Are Getting So Hot That the USB-C Port Melts

If you’re in the business of selling audio gear with a Sonos logo on it, you may be feeling a little more heat than usual. And if you’re a person who owns a Sonos speaker, you may be equally as hot, though potentially not in a figurative sense. According to a report from Bloomberg, Sonos has admitted that a small number of customers who bought its Roam Bluetooth speakers have experienced overheating problems that caused the speaker to partially melt (specifically the USB-C port). Per Bloomberg,

Google could fix one of the most annoying things about switching from a Galaxy to a Pixel phone

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on a native option for stock Android to flip the three-button navigation bar, a feature long requested by users switching from Samsung devices. This addresses a major pain point, as Samsung’s default navigation layout is the reverse of stock Android’s, forcing users to retrain their muscle memory. Evidence of the unreleased feature was found in an Android Canary build, but it will likely not launch until a future Android 16 quarterly

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 has solved the wrong problem

Ever since foldable phones first appeared, I’ve had a complicated relationship with them. I wanted to love the concept from the very beginning, and I truly tried, but I could never get past how unwieldy they were. If you’ll remember, early foldables were comically thick, essentially feeling like two regular phones stacked on top of each other. Over the years, manufacturers have been on a mission to slim them down. Now, with the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, we’ve reached a significant

Another Samsung Galaxy S25 FE leak suggests an earlier launch

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The Samsung Galaxy S25 FE could launch on September 19 in Korea. Last year, Samsung launched the Galaxy S24 FE globally a month before it launched in Korea, leaving us wondering if the same is possible this year, too. The Galaxy S25 FE rakes up only minor upgrades, with the most notable being its much faster wired charging. The Galaxy S25 FE is the next major launch expected out of camp Samsung and will conclude the S series launches of 2025. The phone i

As a linguist, I want to find the words to measure chronic illness

Heather Hogan / The Sick Times Let me paint a scene that is all too familiar: I’m not feeling well (again), I go to the doctor (again), they take some blood (again; I turn my head away) and poke at me in whatever way my insurance company deems appropriate. The result is a long sheet of seemingly arbitrary numbers that indicate something about my metabolic processes and the resulting sensations, and I leave without much information aside from some variation of: “These tests tell me that your bo
