feeds.bbci.co.uk Unknown 2025-11-18 03:00:10

Coinbase boss claims SEC will drop crypto lawsuit Coinbase chief executive Brian Armstrong said the potential dismissal of the lawsuit would be "hugely vindicating". Its boss Brian Armstrong said in a post on X on Friday that "an agreement" had been reached with the regulator's staff to dismiss the legal action which would see it pay no fines or make any changes to how it operates, when confirmed. The US regulator alleged in 2023 that Coinbase had violated laws by offering investments that ar

TL;DR Samsung has pulled the product page for its recently announced three-in-one wireless charger. This suggests that the Galaxy maker may have canceled the accessory, but we’ve asked the company for more information. Samsung quietly announced a new three-in-one wireless charger alongside the Galaxy S25 phones last month.

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Multiple Galaxy Buds 3 Pro owners claim to be experiencing an issue where one of their earbuds isn’t charging.

The iPhone 16e lacks support for MagSafe charging, an omission that has dominated conversations about Apple’s cheapest iPhone model this week.

The Morning After: Apple reveals its new cheapest iPhone. What’s missing?

The price has been bumped up, but so have the specs. If you couldn’t stomach $800 for a new iPhone with Apple Intelligence, don’t worry: Apple just announced the iPhone 16e. At $599, it strikes a balance on specs, which is the soft and cosy way to say it doesn’t have everything. It has a lot, though. With a 6.1-inch screen, it’s a much bigger device than the 4.7-inch iPhone SE, with a notch for FaceID (no more TouchID), USB-C (adios, Lightning) and the company’s A18 processor. There’s also an
