Samsung TL;DR Samsung has scheduled a virtual Unpacked event for September 4. A promotion for reserving “the latest Galaxy Tab device” hints that we’re looking at the Tab S11 launch. Samsung has already had a busy summer for itself, with its Galaxy Unpacked event back in July introducing us to the Fold 7, Flip 7, and the Watch 8 series. While some of you may argue that the summer’s basically already over with August just about to wrap up, we’re still channeling summer vibes — and Samsung is s
Ryan Haines / Android Authority Have you stopped and considered the fact that we can now fold smartphones? It’s truly impressive, and I still marvel over foldable phones.

Samsung is hosting another Unpacked event on September 4, and this time it'll only be available to watch virtually. The event will stream on Samsung's YouTube page and website at 5:30AM ET, following the in-person launch events the company held for the Galaxy S25 line in January and the new Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 in July. With most of the company's smartphone lineup accounted for, Samsung will likely use this Unpacked to introduce new tablets. The company announced the the Galaxy Tab S10
Samsung will unveil new phones and devices for its Galaxy line during a Sept. 4 virtual event. The upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event is timed just ahead of the IFA 2025 conference, a consumer tech event held in Berlin. The invite references a new Galaxy Tab that is available to "reserve" ahead of the event, but it's unclear what the new tablet is or what features it'll have. Samsung also typically announces new FE devices in the fall, which means we could see a Galaxy S25 FE phone or a similar FE
I’m writing this in a building with 756 windows. I know because I counted, and spent months researching, measuring, designing, 3D printing, and assembling them for the final project of an architecture course I took last spring. I’m a computer science major, but I make a point of taking a few non-math non-CS courses each year, made possible by Brown University’s Open Curriculumn. Last semester, those courses were in architecture and epigraphy; this blog post is about a project for the former.

Crystal Dynamics, the studio behind the recent Tomb Raider games, announced an unspecified number of layoffs today. In a post on LinkedIn, the game developer kept the size of the cuts vague, only stating that "a number of our talented colleagues" would be impacted. In what's becoming an all-too-familiar refrain, the company cited "evolving business conditions" as the reason for the layoffs. "This decision was not made lightly," the post reads. "It was necessary, however, to ensure the long-term
“This research focuses on a central issue in the discourse surrounding AI and language: are these language changes happening because we’re using a tool and repeating what it suggested or is language changing because AI is influencing the human language system?” said assistant professor of computational linguistics and principal investigator Tom Juzek. “By analyzing lexical trends before and after ChatGPT was released in 2022, we found a convergence between human word choices and LLM-associated p

After so many years searching for someone to fill the "Blank Space" in her heart, billionaire chanteuse Taylor Swift has, it seems, finally found her person in Kansas City tight end Travis Kelce. After two years of dating, the celebrity couple announced this week that they're engaged to be married in an Instagram post that featured, as seen below, a beautiful photoshoot in a rambling English garden, complete with the caption "your English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married."

Remember Judas? No, not the biblical figure and not the Lady Gaga bop, this Judas is a project from Ghost Story Games. If you don't remember, it's the game that was reportedly in " development hell " before it was even announced . The team, led by BioShock creator Ken Levine, had gone pretty quiet for a few years after releasing the debut trailer, but today teased a look at some key art and mechanics for the game. The BioShock lineage is clear from the handful of visuals we've seen so far, but
I'll start with the tl;dr summary to make sure everyone sees it and then explain further: As of September 1, we will temporarily be forced to block access to Dreamwidth from all IP addresses that geolocate to Mississippi for legal reasons. This block will need to continue until we either win the legal case entirely, or the district court issues another injunction preventing Mississippi from enforcing their social media age verification and parental consent law against us. Mississippi residents,
Video footage went viral on social media earlier this summer after an intoxicated woman was seen on a Southwest Airlines flight pulling another woman’s hair and shouting abusive things before being subdued and arrested. Now the woman who was attacked has filed a lawsuit against her attacker and named Southwest as a co-defendant, partially blaming the airline’s open seating policy for the confrontation. Leanna Perry, identified as a 32-year-old illustrator from Brooklyn by the New York Post, was
In July, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention dramatically, but quietly, scaled back a food safety surveillance system, cutting active tracking from eight top foodborne infections down to just two, according to a report by NBC News. The Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet)—a network of surveillance sites that spans 10 states and covers about 54 million Americans (16 percent of the US population)—previously included active monitoring for eight infections from pathog
Acer Swift 16 AI ZDNET's key takeaways The Acer Swift 16 AI is regularly priced at $1,250. Its 16-inch OLED display, well-designed lightweight form, and marathon battery work together to create a laptop that feels more premium than its price would suggest. Its speakers, however, leave much to be desired, and it has its fair share of bloatware. $1,249.99 at Best Buy Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google.

Earlier this year, the Trump administration raised eyebrows and inspired scoffs when it announced it wanted to buy Greenland. Since then, the government has ignored the laughs and continued to pursue its stated objective. Now, a new report from a Danish news outlet alleges that multiple Americans with direct ties to Trump have been engaged in covert “influence operations” aimed at Greenlanders. The purpose of these propaganda efforts is to sow division between the Nordic territory and its parent

The tool helps users appear in their group pictures by snapping two aligned shots and seamlessly stitching them together to create a composite photo for the whole group.

Add Me is a highlight feature of the Pixel 9 series, and it’s one of those features you think you won’t use until y
When Apple releases the iPhone 17 in a few weeks, the timer will start for the new flagship model breaking a record set 15 years ago. The record will take more than a year to break, but based on current rumors, the iPhone 17 will be the first to steal the crown. iPhone 4 had an unusually long run That record belongs to the iPhone 4, which went on sale in June 2010 and remained Apple’s top iPhone until October 2011. Because Apple shifted its flagship launch cycle from summer to fall that year,

According to Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, the behavior of a black hole depends on two numbers: how heavy it is, and how fast it is rotating. And that’s it. Black holes are said to have “no hair” — no features that distinguish them from their fellows with the same mass and spin. With new data, it has started to become possible to test this no-hair conjecture. Astronomers have detected hundreds of signals from colliding black holes over the past 10 years. In these dramatic even
Tesla appears to be launching one more salvo in its bid to boost flagging Cybertruck sales and popularity, saying this week it will now offer the model in a new international market. The company announced its South Korea launch with regional branding on X, linking to an official statement on Korea’s top app, Naver. The move underscores Tesla’s intent to solidify its presence in Asia, where demand for high-end electric vehicles continues to grow. Interestingly, Tesla also appears to be trying t
A judge has denied Meta’s request to dismiss a lawsuit brought against it by early employee Kelly Stonelake. U.S. District Judge Barbara Rothstein, who is overseeing the case, ruled this month that parts of Stonelake’s suit had merit, and the case will move forward. “I hope this ruling encourages others who have experienced discrimination and toxic workplace cultures to consider the courts as one way to push for justice and accountability,” Stonelake said in a statement given to TechCrunch.

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Smartphones shipped in Q2 2025 with an average of 3.19 cameras, down from 3.37 a year earlier. Dual-camera setups now lead shipments, while single-camera models are making a comeback. Brands are swapping extra lenses for higher-res sensors and AI-driven photography. Phone makers spent many years racing to cram as many cameras into their handsets as possible. At one point, it wasn’t unusual to see four lenses stuck on the back of a flagship, and it was
Anthropic’s agentic AI, Claude , has been "weaponized" in high-level cyberattacks, according to a new report published by the company. It claims to have successfully disrupted a cybercriminal whose "vibe hacking" extortion scheme targeted at least 17 organizations, including some related to healthcare, emergency services and government. Anthropic says the hacker attempted to extort some victims into paying six-figure ransoms to prevent their personal data from being made public, with an "unprec
Google is introducing a new defense for Android called ‘Developer Verification’ to block malware installations from sideloaded apps sourced from outside the official Google Play app store. For apps on Google Play, there was already a requirement for publishers to provide a D-U-N-S (Data Universal Numbering System) number, introduced on August 31, 2023. Google says this has had a notable effect in reducing malware on the platform. However, the system didn’t apply to the vast developer ecosystem
Kerry Wan/ZDNET Follow ZDNET: Add us as a preferred source on Google. ZDNET's key takeaways RAM is an important hardware resource that allows a computer to perform optimally and at fast speeds. Escalating computing demands have made 16GB of RAM the new standard for PCs and laptops if they are to continue performing at their best. Even then, 16GB of memory may not be enough for certain users, so it's important to know when to upgrade. I used to struggle when shopping for a new computer. Ove
