Do You Need a Satellite Messenger?

When the smartphone in your pocket is loaded with a growing arsenal of safety tools—including location tracking, fall detection, and SOS alerts—it’s very tempting to adventure off the grid without back up. But if your hikes, runs, and rides regularly take you beyond the reach of cell towers, into more extreme conditions and terrain, sticking a dedicated satellite messenger in your pack might just save your life. Unlike smartphones, satellite communicators don’t rely on Wi-Fi or network coverage

Jason Hiner/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. The hype continues to build around the arrival of Meta's futuristic Hypernova (a.k.a. Celeste) smart glasses, which will reportedly add a small heads-up display in one eye and a neural wristband (Ceres) to control the interface.

Samsung’s trifold might be launching pretty soon

We know officially that Samsung is planning to launch its first trifold phone this year, and recent rumors suggest that might mean either this month or next. Just don’t expect it to appear at this week’s Unpacked event, which promises products ranging from “premium AI tablets to the newest member of the Galaxy S25 family.” Korea’s ET News reports today that the new foldable could be unveiled as early as this month, with the phone actually on sale in November. That launch sounds pretty limited t

Survey claims many iPhone owners will switch to Android for a foldable this year

A new survey of US iPhone owners claims that almost a third of them would consider switching to either Samsung or Google in order to get a folding phone this year, rather than waiting until the expected launch of the iPhone Fold next year. There’s a mix of good and bad news for Apple in the rest of the findings, but the headline claim seems a real stretch … SellCell’s survey is of 2,000 iPhone owners. The way sample sizes work, that’s a surprisingly meaningful number of respondents if they are

The Morning After: DJI’s tiny Mic 3 can record four subjects at once

It was a quiet Labor Day weekend for tech, but the Engadget team has kept busy testing out new gear from the likes of DJI, Sony and Bose. I want to kick things off with the new flagship DJI Mic 3. The wireless mics have a wholesale design change from the Mic 2, plus many improvements in sound quality, noise reduction and the number of subjects you can record at once — though there is one downgrade compared to the last model. I’ve had one for over a week, so I’ll share some impressions as well.

Sony Is Spoiling PlayStation Plus Subscribers With These Free September Games

All PlayStation Plus members can now play games like Psychonauts 2, the 2021 Game Awards nominee for Game of the Year.

PlayStation Plus is similar to Xbox Game Pass, offering subscribers a large, constantly expanding library of games. Subscribers can choose from the Essential, Extra and Premium tiers, each

It’s surprisingly easy to remove Google’s digital AI watermark on the Pixel 10

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority Like the Samsung Galaxy S25, Google’s new Pixel 10 series is adopting C2PA metadata for digital media authenticity. Anytime the phones take a photo or edit it, they embed a watermark in the final image that traces its origin and any changes made to it. Google, like Samsung, is following this standard to help combat all inevitable confusion around an image’s provenance and veracity on the internet. Is this photo real or AI? Or is it real with AI embellishments?

F1 in Hungary: Strategy and fast tire changes make all the difference

Formula 1 teams can start their annual summer break today. Sometime this month, each of the 10 teams has to close its factory for 14 consecutive days. Laptops stay in the office, email goes unchecked. It all sounds very civilized for a sport where the difference between hero and zero can come down to milliseconds. As was the case at this past weekend's Hungarian Grand Prix, at least in qualifying. When the Hungaroring was added to the calendar back in 1986, it was F1's first true foray behind t

Behold: Horror Icons Are Getting the Baby Yoda Treatment

It seems these days most major franchises want to cash in on that Star Wars Baby Yoda money by making their own adorable version of something within any given fandom. We saw it last year with the debut of Baby Beetlejuice in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, and now this year we have Spirit Halloween‘s Horror Babies. The cuteness aggression is too real with Terrifier star Art the Clown—plus Chucky, Ghostface, lil’ Michael Myers, Leatherface, Pennywise, and others, all featured as infants in the Spirit H

Space investing goes mainstream as VCs ditch the rocket science requirements

Five years ago, investor Katelin Holloway made what she calls a “literal moon shot” investment. A founding partner of the generalist venture firm Seven Seven Six admits she and her team had “no clue” what rocket company Stoke Space was talking about when they pitched the firm on its reusable launch technology. “We knew full well we were not the specialist,” she says. Since then, Holloway has also invested in Interlune, a company planning to harvest helium-3 from the moon and sell it back to Ear

You can buy an iPhone 16 Pro for $250 off on Amazon right now - how the deal works

Kerry Wan/ZDNET No, your eyes are not deceiving you. For a limited time, Amazon has the iPhone 16 Pro, unlocked and all, listing at a $255 discount. That brings the flagship iPhone down to around $745, from its retail price of $1,000. Is there a catch? When you're buying outside of the Apple store, there almost always is. Fortunately, this one's a little easier to shoulder: the discounted model is in "renewed" condition, a refurbish standard placed by Amazon that indicates that while the phone

Can You Develop Film in a Jägerbomb?

Analog photographers love trying new and unusual things. Whether it’s shooting on expired film, skipping film altogether, or developing film using odd ingredients. Sweet Lou Photography opted for this last type of experimenting and developed his film inside a Jägerbomb. Did it work? For those who have not had the displeasure of drinking a Jägerbomb, it is a bomb mixed drink that combines a shot of the alcoholic German digestif, Jägermeister, into an energy drink, typically a Red Bull. This is n

Apple isn’t done patching a discontinued iPhone thanks to EU radiation drama

Stop us if you’ve heard this one before. Apple is preparing a software update for an iPhone from 2020 to address a years-old health complaint only raised in one market. Specifically, Apple is once again updating iPhone 12 models to address a non-issue pushed by health authorities in France. This time the software update will apply to all iPhone 12 models in EU countries, and not just France. Here’s a recap from our coverage two years ago: French authorities determined that the iPhone 12 no lo

iPhone 17 Pro: Apple’s rumored not-so-clear case design shown in video

Yesterday, leaker Majin Bu revealed that Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Clear Case may not be so clear after all. A second source has now backed the claim. Sonny Dickson shared a video on social media that shows someone handling what is likely a knockoff case based on Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Clear Case design. You’ve probably already seen the new iPhone 17 clear case, but here’s another look at it. Would you prefer an all-clear version? pic.twitter.com/jsCPankDkx — Sonny Dickson (@SonnyDickson) September
