Nothing Phone (3) review

Carl Pei led electronics manufacturer OnePlus from being a scrappy brand for tech enthusiasts offering affordable phones to one that produces multiple lines of devices, including flagship phones that challenge Samsung and Apple. He is running a similar playbook with Nothing, a five-year-old, venture-backed hardware startup that just launched its most ambitious device, the Phone (3), earlier this month. The phone, priced at $799, is intended to compete with devices from Samsung and Apple. While

Jack Dorsey’s New Private Messenger App Doesn’t Need an Internet Connection

What has Jack Dorsey, the founder of Twitter (now X) been up to lately? Among other things, creating experimental little projects, like a new private messenger that doesn’t need the internet to function. On Sunday, Dorsey announced the beta launch of a new messaging app that he says relies on mesh networks to pass messages from user to user via the power of Bluetooth technology. The service sounds vaguely like Amazon’s Sidewalk project (which similarly used mesh networks to power IoT devices),

The US and Europe were the dominant public funders of fusion energy research and are home to many of the world’s pioneering private fusion efforts. The West has consequently developed many of the basic technologies that will make fusion power work. But in the past five years China’s support of fusion energy has surged, threatening to allow the country to dominate the industry. The industrial base available to support China’s nascent fusion energy industry could enable it to climb the learning c

It's a little shallow that my favorite thing about the OnePlus Nord 5 -- and its cheaper sibling the Nord CE5 -- is the design on the back of the phone. But in a world where most budget-focused phones are identical gray slabs, it's refreshing to see something a bit different. The back of the Nord 5 has an unusual design that looks like marble. I don't know how OnePlus has done it, but the way that the material catches the light makes it look deeply three dimensional. Running your finger across
