techspot.com Rob Thubron 2026-01-24 08:46:00

What just happened? There are so many similarly specced monitors these days that we rarely see "world firsts" anymore. However, Samsung is claiming that title with yet another new Odyssey, which it says is the first-ever 37-inch 4K display. The Odyssey G7 G75F joins Samsung's increasingly long list of Odyssey monitors, but it's the first monitor ever to combine a 37-inch panel with a 4K (3840x2160) resolution, according to the company. It's rare to see a 37-inch monitor – 32 inches tends to be

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-24 04:59:03

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is apparently thinking about adding an additional NFC antenna to the top of the Galaxy S26 series.

The Galaxy S26 rumors are trickling in at a steady pace, even though the expected launch window is roughly six months away. The latest leak has revealed that Samsung could significantly improve NFC payments like Samsung Pay or Google Wallet.

WTF?! One of the many fears about AI use becoming widespread is that people can now alter images – sometimes convincingly – without any technical skills. An example of this surfaced recently when an Airbnb guest said a host manipulated photos in a false £12,000 ($9,041) damage claim. The incident took place earlier this year when a London-based woman booked a one-bedroom apartment in New York's Manhattan for two-and-a-half months while she was studying, reports The Guardian.

Ferroelectric Helps Break Transistor Limits

Integrating an electronic material that exhibits a strange property called negative capacitance can help high-power gallium nitride transistors break through a performance barrier, say scientists in California. Research published in Science suggests that negative capacitance helps sidestep a physical limit that typically enforces trade-offs between how well a transistor performs in the “on” state versus how well it does in the “off” state.
