What’s most imp
The next season of Apex Legends kicks off on August 5, and it will see the arrival of a new, permanent game mode. Respawn says it built Wildcard as a faster-paced alternative to the core battle royale mode. For instance, when you take out an enemy, they won't leave behind a death box. Instead, their loot will scatter around them, making it easier for you to spot and pick up an item you need or want. Another big difference here is legend stacking. You and your teammates will all be able to play
Facepalm: Google released the Pixel 6a in 2022 as a mid-range variant of the Pixel 6 smartphone line. The device was initially praised for its so-called "flagship-level" performance and features, though it's now clear that the phone is far from perfect. A new Pixel 6a caught fire, even after Google released a crippling software update intended to limit the device's lithium-ion battery charge level. A Reddit user recently shared his harrowing experience, explaining that the phone essentially beg
Kerry Wan/ZDNET There's been no shortage of Pixel 10 leaks leading up to its expected August launch event -- even Google has taken part in it. But while all eyes are on external design and camera changes, the biggest feature upgrade with the next-gen Pixels may actually be hidden in plain sight. I'm talking about Qi2 certification, the wireless charging standard introduced at CES more than two years ago that has yet to gain widespread market adoption due to material costs, lack of user demand,
CLJ-COLL: looks like Clojure, tastes like Common Lisp! This is a Common Lisp implementation of Clojure's APIs for collections, seqs, and lazy-seqs. It provides immutable Cons, Queue, PersistentList, capabilities as well as Vector, Set, and Map analogues built on FSet (but accessed entirely via Clojure APIs). CLJ-COLL is intended to give a "most naturally integrated" experience of Clojure APIs and immutable data structures within a Common Lisp environment, and to make Common Lisp more approacha
Since February, multiple news reports have alleged that a significant number of agents at Homeland Security Investigations (HSI)—the Department of Homeland Security’s investigative wing that focuses on transnational crimes like child exploitation, human trafficking, and drug cartels—have been pulled from child exploitation cases and reassigned to immigration enforcement and arrests. US senator Ron Wyden urged DHS Inspector General Joseph Cuffari on Tuesday to “promptly” launch an investigation
is a news editor with over a decade’s experience in journalism. He previously worked at Android Police and Tech Advisor. Evidence is mounting that Google’s Pixel 10 series will support Qi2 wireless charging, including built-in magnets, finally offering a mainstream Android alternative to Apple’s MagSafe. The latest sign is a leaked image of the Pixel 10 with what appears to be a magnetic wireless charging puck attached to the back. The leaked image comes from the reliable leaker Evan Blass, an
Foxconn on Wednesday said it is taking a stake in TECO Electric & Machinery Co ., as it looks to supercharge its efforts to become a key player in building artificial intelligence data centers. The Taiwanese firm, formally known as Hon Hai, is looking to replicate the success it has had in consumer electronics in the world of AI. It's a play that could unlock Foxconn's access to a potential $1 trillion of spending by companies on data centers in the coming years, according to Counterpoint Resea
We’re just a day away from the AAPL Q3 2025 earnings report, covering April to June. Apple said it expected single-digit growth, and analysts expect this to be toward the lower end of the scale. Digging into the detail, the consensus view is that both iPhone and Mac revenue will be up year-on-year, while iPad earnings will be down … AAPL Q3 2025 revenue expectations Apple saw revenue grow 5% year-on-year in fiscal Q2, and said we should expect similar in Q3. Analysts are slightly more pessimi
French smart ring brand Circular has launched its Immunity Index feature that could notify you ahead of your next cold. The feature, available on the smart ring's app, uses health data the ring already aggregates, such as heart rate variability, resting heart rate, sleep-breathing regularity, and temperature stability, to predict strain on the body ahead of illness. Also: This subscription-free smart ring gave my Oura a run for its money (and it's cheaper too) Immunity Index monitors these bi

Yesterday, my Android Authority colleagues broke the news that Samsung might be shaking up the Galaxy series with the S26 next year. According to our sleuthing, the three product names for the upcoming phones will be Galaxy S26 Pro, Galaxy S26 Edge, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. And wow, do these tell a story or what? The Ultra is here to stay, clearly. As the crown jewel of the series, it’s predicted to have a massively upgraded main camera, faster charging, Qualcomm’s highest-end Snapdragon Elite pro
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a major step forward for Samsung; it’s the lightest and arguably thinnest foldable phone on the planet. That’s a dramatic upgrade over last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 6, which looked dated compared to rival devices. Here’s the thing, though. We’re now at the point where the Galaxy Z Fold and other foldable phones are arguably thin enough; they are now a hair thicker than conventional smartphones. If we no longer need thinner phones, here’s what I’d like Samsung to do next with
Google's upcoming Pixel 10 may support wireless Qi2 charging natively (without a case), which would make it the first Pixel model and one of the few Android phones to do so. A new image from mega-leaker Evan Blass shows a Qi2 charger attached to the back of a naked Pixel 10 device, meaning it likely has the magnets required to support the fast-charging system. Rumors bubbled up last month that Google was working on a new lineup of "Pixelsnap" Qi2 accessories, leading to speculation that the Pix

Most smartwatch newbies will be delighted by the $349.99 Galaxy Watch 8 — provided they can stomach the new squircle design. It’s more that if you’ve been a fan of Samsung smartwatches, it fe
Ryan Whitwam / Android Authority TL;DR A new certification has revealed details about the upcoming Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra’s battery and charging speeds. The Tab S11 Ultra will feature a minor upgrade in battery capacity over the last generation. However, there are no increments in charging speed, which remains unchanged at 45W. Samsung recently concluded the second major launch of the year, where it announced the latest foldables and a refreshed Galaxy Watch lineup. Besides these, we’re still
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR We previously found code evidence within One UI 8 suggesting that Samsung’s next flagship lineup could consist of the Galaxy S26 Pro, Galaxy S26 Edge, and Galaxy S26 Ultra. However, GSMA listings for the base Galaxy S26 contradicted this finding. Previously listed as “Galaxy S26,” updated GSMA listings were spotted for SM-S942, which now list the same model number as the “Galaxy S26 Pro.” This corroborates our previous finding and suggests that the Galaxy
In modern computing, data exchange is foundational to everything from web browsing to microservices and IoT devices. The ability for different systems to represent, share, and interpret structured information drives our digital world. Yet no single perfect format has emerged to meet all needs. Instead, we've seen an evolution of data interchange formats, each addressing the specific challenges and technical requirements of its time. This narrative traces three pivotal data formats: Extensible M
Key takeaways: The rumored iPhone 17 Pro is expected to be released in early September. The Pro is rumored to be getting a scratch-resistant antireflective display. Colors could include black, silver, dark blue and orange. The new iPhone is likely just a couple of months away from release, and rumors about an iPhone 17 Pro have been ramping up. Although whispers about an ultrathin iPhone 17 Air have hogged a lot of the attention, the Pro models tend to include more upgraded features. In addi
Other Alexa (or Alexa Compatible) Speakers Amazon Echo Pop for $40: The Echo Pop is a perfectly fine little speaker, and the cutest one in Amazon's lineup. Does it have great sound? No. It's fine enough for background tunes or if you're limited to a dorm room, but you'll get much better sound for a similar size from the Echo Dot (but you'll pay a little more, and you won't get as cute of colors!) Amazon Echo Show 5 (3rd Gen) for $90: This smart display is another just-fine option, but it's too
Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has begun rolling out the fourth One UI 8 beta for the Galaxy S25 series. The third beta is available to users in the South Korea, Germany, and India, but we expect users in the US to get the update soon. The Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7, and Flip 7 FE have launched with stable One UI 8, but the rest of Samsung’s lineup still has to wait for their stable release. There’s some good news for the six-month old Galaxy S25 series though, as Samsung has relea
C. Scott Brown / Android Authority A man pressed the digital crown of his Google Pixel Watch 3. TL;DR Google could soon let Pixel Watch users manually trigger backups. We’ve found code evidence suggesting Pixel Watches could soon get a “Backup now” button in Settings, possibly removing the current requirement of having the watch connected to a charger during the backup process. The option is similar to the Backup now setting you find on Android phones. Google seems to be working towards maki
When a new member arrives at the Signal Processing Club, this is what they find at the club gate: I/Q signals. Perhaps a secret plot to keep most people out of the party? Some return from here to try another area (e.g., machine learning, which pays more and is easier to understand but less interesting than signal processing). Others persist enough to push the gate open for implementation purposes (even a little understanding is sufficient for this task) but never fully grasp the main idea. So w

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung Display has revealed more details about the Galaxy Z Fold 7 screen’s durability in extreme temperatures. Samsung told Android Authority that the folding screen is rated for 60,000 folds at -20 degrees Celsius and 300,000 folds at 60 degrees Celsius. This is a two-fold increase over the Galaxy Z Fold 5’s folding screen durability in extreme temperatures. Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7 earlier this month, and it also revealed that the fold
