UAE’s deal to buy Nvidia AI chips reportedly on hold

In Brief The massive AI deal between the U.S. and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is reportedly on hold before it can be finalized due to national security reasons. The deal, which gives the green light to the UAE to buy billions of dollars worth of AI chips from Nvidia and other semiconductor companies, is on hold due to concerns in the U.S. that these AI chips could end up in China, the Wall Street Journal reported, citing anonymous sources. This potential chip smuggling was a concern when t

It’s too late for a Google Pixel flip phone

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority Just think about it: A Google Pixel Flip. Honestly, it sounds like my dream phone. It’d combine my favorite form factor with my favorite Android skin, and I’d never need to recommend anything else again. I’d have Google’s top-notch image processing to balance out the often-limited flip phone cameras, years of updates to look forward to, and a cover screen experience that only needs a proper app drawer to leap ahead of Samsung’s Flex Window. And yet, I can’t s

With Samsung’s tri-fold on the horizon, TECNO unveils its own ‘G-style’ concept phone

TECNO TL;DR TECNO has unveiled the Phantom Ultimate G Fold Concept, a slim, inward-folding tri-fold phone that will be showcased at MWC 2026. It features a 9.94-inch display, dual-hinge “G-style” fold, and measures just 11.49mm when closed. The design rivals the upcoming tri-fold from Samsung but remains a concept for now. Two of the hot topics of 2025 regarding foldable phones are slimmer builds and the triple-fold design. TECNO’s latest concept phone hits both of these talking points, and

ChatGPT’s upcoming Image Styles could make it super easy to Ghiblify your images (APK teardown)

These styles can be added as instructions for converting existing images or generating new ones. ChatGPT’s image generation capabilities are pretty nifty, and it’s largely credited for spa

Bluetooth pairing sucks on most Google TV devices, but Google wants to change that

Damien Wilde / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s Fast Pair, meant to simplify Bluetooth pairing, is still not widely available on Google TV devices a year after its initial rollout. Despite a prior announcement suggesting a broad release, the feature is currently only supported on four devices, including the Chromecast models. Device makers must choose to enable Fast Pair on their TVs, and Google says it’s working with partners to bring the feature to more devices. Pairing a new Bluetooth acc

ChatGPT Plus could soon get a yearly plan that will save you money (APK teardown)

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority TL;DR Open AI appears to be working on an annual billing option for its ChatGPT Plus plan. New code spotted in the latest ChatGPT beta release for Android indicates that the annual subscription could cost $200. OpenAI currently only offers monthly billing for its premium ChatGPT Plus and Pro tiers, but that may change soon. A recent teardown of the ChatGPT Android app revealed potential support for weekly, annual, and even lifetime subscription options. Whi

Samsung may have accidentally revealed its tri-fold’s name, and it’s not very exciting

TL;DR Samsung has filed a trademark for its upcoming triple-screen foldable. The filing reveals the name “Galaxy Z TriFold,” but we’re skeptical of this being final. The foldable is rumored to launch in October, but with availability limited to China and South Korea. Samsung’s progress on a new style of foldable with three inner screen faces instead of two is no longer a secret. It has repeatedly teased the new shape and even showcased a working prototype at Mobile World Congress 2025 of what

Samsung chairman cleared of fraud by South Korea's top court

South Korea's top court has upheld an appeals court ruling to dismiss all charges in a long-running fraud case against Samsung chairman Jay Y. Lee. The accounting fraud and stock manipulation charges stemmed from a merger of two Samsung subsidiaries in 2015. Prosecutors had accused Lee of manipulating share prices to help clear the way for the merger in an attempt to consolidate his power. In 2024, a court ruled that the prosecutors failed to prove their claims. The case has worked through the

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 review: Foldable phone nirvana (for a price)

After several generations of iterative updates, it feels like Samsung tossed the Galaxy Z Fold 7 into a Hyperbolic Time Chamber to create a stunning device that's leaner, stronger and more powerful than before. The best part though is the phone looks and functions just like a regular handset now that there’s less bulk to lug around. But at a moment's notice, it can go Super Saiyan by opening up to reveal an even larger 8-inch display to become a true multimedia Raidboss. Unfortunately, it's stil
