If this OnePlus 15 camera leak is true, OnePlus might be making a critical mistake

Ryan Haines / Android Authority The OnePlus 13 is, without a doubt, one of my favorite Android phones available today — and for a multitude of reasons. Its design is great, performance is outstanding, and battery life is amazing. Unlike a lot of past OnePlus phones, the OnePlus 13’s cameras are just as good (if not better) than the rest of its flagship competitors. And that’s why the latest OnePlus 15 leak has me worried. Earlier this week, a well-known leaker teased a few details about the u

Your Samsung Galaxy Watch is about to get a big upgrade for free - 4 features I can't wait to try

Using the Very Large Telescope (VLT), astronomers captured an incredibly detailed image of the nearby spiral galaxy, displayed in thousands of colors that illuminate all the action taking place in our galactic neighborhood. The Eur

How Trump Mobile Compares to Other Cheap Phone Plans (That You Can Actually Get Now)

When the Trump Organization announced its new Trump Mobile cell service and gold colored T1 phone -- complete with an American flag on the back -- it raised a lot of questions. While most of them focused on the numerous mistakes and typos on the Trump Mobile site -- some of which have been fixed -- other errors and questionable policies, like calling RAM storage, not identifying the handset's processor or the fact that you can't get a refund for the T1 phone raised several flags for us. Even the

Honda’s hopper suddenly makes the Japanese carmaker a serious player in rocketry

An experimental reusable rocket developed by the research and development arm of Honda Motor Company flew to an altitude of nearly 900 feet Tuesday, then landed with pinpoint precision at the carmaker's test facility in northern Japan. The accomplishment may not sound like much, but it's important to put it into perspective. Honda's hopper is the first prototype rocket outside of the United States and China to complete a flight of this kind, demonstrating vertical takeoff and vertical landing t

Silk & Snow S&S Organic Mattress Review: Soft as a Cloud

Right off the bat, I'm letting you know this bed is made of neither silk nor snow. I would argue that it’s made with something even better—latex. The feel of latex can be hard to pinpoint, as I’ve heard it compared to everything from a thicker yoga mat or trampoline to even a waterbed. The fact of the matter is that latex has cushioning, pressure relief, and a bouncy feel. It’s also pretty good at keeping out heat and allergens, which is a win for hot sleepers and those with allergies. With the

I saved $30 per month with these portable solar panels (and how they work)

ZDNET's key takeaways The EcoFlow 125W bifacial solar panels cost $899 for a four-pack. They're portable panels that you can take with you or set up temporarily without construction, with easy setup, and lightweight construction Though portable, these bifacial solar panels feel very fragile, so they must be weighed down if conditions are windy; their low 125W input also limits their capacity. $899 at Amazon I see more hurricanes in a year than I'd like, so I ensure my house is prepared to wea

Polar hopes to stand out from other

What Google Translate can tell us about vibecoding

What Google Translate Can Tell Us About Vibecoding | Ingrid's Space What Google Translate Can Tell Us About Vibecoding 6 minute read There has been rather a lot of doomsaying (and perhaps astroturfing) lately about LLMs as the end of computer programming. Much of the discussion has been lacking nuance, so I’d like to add mine. I see claims from one side that “I used $LLM_SERVICE_PROVIDER to make a small throwaway tool, so all programmers will be unemployed in $ARBITRARY_TIME_WINDOW ”, and f

Far-Right ‘Appeal to Heaven’ Flag Flown Above Government Agency in DC

A controversial “Appeal to Heaven” flag that has recently become associated with the “Stop the Steal” movement and Christian nationalism was flown above the Small Business Administration (SBA) agency last week in Washington, DC. On June 11, Kelly Loeffler, the former senator from Georgia and current administrator of the SBA, participated in a ceremony where a new flag of the United States was raised over the agency’s headquarters. Just beneath that flag, on what appeared to be the same halyard,

LLMs pose an interesting problem for DSL designers

The most exciting part of Programming Languages (PL) research for me has always been in Programming Language Design. By carefully crafting a language with a syntax and semantics tailored for a specific domain, PL designers can provide an interface for end users that seamlessly aligns with the sensibilities and intuitions of practitioners, allowing users to focus on the "interesting" parts of a problem and tackle larger and more complex problems. Instead of writing a verbose sequence of API cal

The Best Android Phones of 2025: Tested by Our Experts

The Galaxy S25's biggest flex that I noticed while testing is it shares many of the same attributes as its pricier counterparts, the S25 Plus and S25 Ultra – but it does so for several hundred dollars less. You'll find features like the AI Select tool, Audio Eraser and deeper Gemini integration across all of Samsung's S25 devices, as well as a custom Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12GB RAM – making the smaller phone of the bunch still seem pretty mighty. And while the Galaxy S25 might look
