Inside Brembo’s brake factory, where technology is making better brakes

Nvidia reportedly plans to release new AI chip designed for China

In Brief Nvidia seems determined to find a way to sell AI chips in China despite U.S. export restrictions. The semiconductor giant is planning to launch an AI chip specifically for the Chinese market as early as September, as originally reported by the Financial Times. This AI chip would be based on Nvidia’s Blackwell RTX Pro 6000 processor, which is already modified to meet the existing AI chip restrictions, the Financial Times added. These chips wouldn’t include high-bandwidth memory or NVL

Apple trade-in values cut for iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Apple Watch

Apple trade-in values have been cut for most models of iPhone, all Macs, several Apple Watches, and one iPad. Additionally, there are two older Apple products the company will no longer accept as trade-in against a new one, making them officially worthless … While Apple trade-ins represent very poor value compared to selling privately or using third-party resellers, some people prefer the ease and convenience of just taking their old device into an Apple Store when buying a new one.

It seems the big three US carriers are skipping out on the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE

TL;DR The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is official, but none of the three major US carriers are currently offering it directly. Customers on Verizon, AT&T, or T-Mobile will need to buy the Z Flip FE unlocked or finance it through Samsung or a retailer. Boost Mobile and Xfinity Mobile are offering the Z Flip FE for free as part of a promo for their postpaid plans, though more carriers could eventually follow. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 are now official, and this year also brings a new family

This Fact About Netflix's 'Poop Cruise' Still Haunts Me

It's not often a popular film on a streaming platform is heavily peppered with the phrase "it was raining sewage," but that's one of the joys-slash-horrors of Netflix's Trainwreck: Poop Cruise documentary. The movie is part of the platform's Trainwreck franchise, which focuses on real-life media sensations, news stories and controversial public figures, and for two weeks running, the flick has been in Netflix's Top 10, debuting at No. 2 (yes, No. 2) in its first week before sliding down to No. 6

How to Free Up Your iPhone's Storage by Deleting Data You Don't Need

If you've owned your iPhone for a long time, you know the f when you're about to snap a photo, download an app or update your phone, when suddenly a notification pops up warning you that your iPhone storage is almost full. Maybe you've frantically tried to figure out how to free up as much space as possible without just nuking everything. But don't panic. There are several ways to regain storage space from your iPhone that don't involve starting from scratch. From offloading apps to using the c

Galaxy Z Flip 7 fixes the biggest gripe with using Gemini on flip foldables

TL;DR The Galaxy Z Flip 7 now runs Google Gemini’s Android app natively on the cover screen. This is a step up from Flip 6, which could only support text-based chat with some workarounds. Gemini Live also works directly from the cover screen. The progressive increase in the Galaxy Flip’s cover screen size has also expanded its utility over time. The cover screen on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 measures 4.1 inches, occupying a larger space than the previous model’s 3.4-inch layout. This means m

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE vs Motorola Razr (2025): I know which one I’d buy

If there’s one thing I like, it’s a flip phone. If there are two things I like, they’re flip phones and good values. For a long time, only one device checked both boxes, and it was Motorola’s base-level Razr. Now, though, there’s a new competitor in town: Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. At a glance, it looks like everything that a Samsung fan on a slightly tighter budget might want, yet I can’t see it pulling me away from the Razr that I already like so much. Here’s why in a battle of the Samsung

Samsung drops Snapdragon for the Galaxy Z Flip 7 — here’s why it makes sense

After months of speculation about the status of Samsung’s custom Exynos chip program, we finally have an answer — it’s alive and kicking inside the new Galaxy Z Flip 7. This includes customers in the US, who had previously only been treated to a modern Exynos chip in the Galaxy S24 FE. However, this choice leaves Samsung with two different chips inside its latest flagship foldable portfolio. The Exynos 2500 is in the Z Flip 7, but Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite powers the Galaxy Z Fold 7. But wh

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 vs. Z Flip 6: I used both models, and there's a clear winner

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Samsung this week introduced its newest foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Fold 7. These devices feature updated specifications, resulting in a thinner, lighter, and more powerful design. You might be wondering if these updates justify an upgrade, especially if you own a previous model like the Galaxy Z Flip 6, or if you're considering a flip phone for the first time.

Samsung’s Z Flip Won’t Be Perfect Until It’s as Thin as the Z Fold 7

Samsung's flip-style foldable phone is so close to perfection. Despite the new look, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a far-too-similar foldable to the Galaxy Z Flip 6. The new clamshell phone has a larger exterior screen that integrates (with a heavy sigh) Google Gemini, but compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, the Z Flip 7 is still thick enough that it will protrude like a bony crag from any user’s thin pockets. I understand why Samsung places so much emphasis on its expensive flagships, but the fact is th

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 still doesn’t fix the worst thing about Samsung’s flip phones

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority I have a long history with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip line. Our revisit of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was my first experience with a modern flip phone, and it instantly hooked me. I started slipping my SIM back into a Galaxy Z Flip anytime I was between review cycles, and the summer Unpacked event became my favorite of the year, Sydney Sweeney cameos and all. And yet, as much as I’ve loved the overall Galaxy Z Flip experience, I’ve always had one issue: The cover scree

iPhone Fold production line almost ready for next year’s launch – report

An iPhone Fold production line is being prepared in readiness for the launch of the first folding iPhone next year, and a new supply-chain report says that this is almost ready to begin production. The news follows a recent report that Apple is currently testing realistic prototypes of the device. The plant will reportedly have the capacity to produce displays for around twice as many devices as Apple actually expects to sell … The long journey to an iPhone Fold Folding smartphones have been

AI Is a Lousy Chef

After my sage plant struggled for years in a shadowy corner of my roof-deck planter garden, I moved it into the sunniest spot up there. Boy did that make a difference. It also meant I needed to figure out what to do with all the leaves it produced. As luck would have it, I was also trying out AI cooking platforms. That night, I plugged the prompt “recipe using brats and lots of sage” into an AI recipe generator and it gave me what it called “sage infused brats skillet with caramelized onions.”

Samsung reveals why the Galaxy Z Fold 7 didn’t get a bigger battery

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has reportedly revealed why the Galaxy Z Flip 7 has a bigger battery while the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has the same capacity. The company said that most Flip users wanted a bigger battery, while the Fold 7 had other priorities. This comes as rivals to the Galaxy Z Fold series offer much bigger batteries and other impressive features. Samsung has just launched its new foldable phones, and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 brings a welcome battery upgrade. Unfortunate

How to clear your iPhone cache (and why it greatly improves the performance)

What is cache? Cache -- or browser cache -- is the temporary storage of website files. So, things like images, scripts, and cookies that your browser saves on your phone to make pages load faster the next time you visit. Also: Every iPhone model that can be updated to iOS 26 (and which ones don't support it) Over time, though, those files can add up, taking a large bite out of your device storage and slowing things down.

The FTC's 'Click to Cancel' Rule Is Blocked. Here's What That Means for Your Subscriptions

The Click to Cancel rule is supposed to make it as easy to cancel a subscription as it is to sign up for one. Viva Tung/Getty Images The Federal Trade Commission's "click to cancel" rule -- which would have made it easier to cancel unwanted subscriptions -- has been blocked by the US Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals. The rule was set to take effect on July 14. "Click to cancel" would have required businesses to clearly disclose terms and obtain informed consent before charging for a subscriptio
