Galaxy S25 FE leak reveals new colors, bad news for RAM and storage

TL;DR The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 FE could have 8GB of RAM and 128GB or 256GB of internal storage. While these may be sufficient for most people right now, the specs aren’t very future-proof, especially given the pace of development of AI features. Samsung is expected to charge about $700 for the base variant of the Galaxy S25 FE, which makes these specs difficult to digest. Samsung is hard at work on its next launch, which is most likely the Galaxy S25 FE. We’ve seen several specs leak f

Microsoft fixes SharePoint zero-day exploits used in cyberattacks and ransomware - how to patch them

Kiryl Pro motion / Getty Images Microsoft has patched three critical zero-day SharePoint security flaws that hackers have already exploited to attack more vulnerable organizations.

Google’s strategy to grow Gemini seems to be working

Tushar Mehta / Android Authority TL;DR Google executives say that the Gemini app has over 450 million monthly active users as of Q2 2025. Daily requests in the app have grown over 50% since the first quarter of the year. Gemini is replacing Google Assistant as the default voice assistant on Android phones. Gemini is so big right now, this year it basically ended up taking over Google I/O, pushing Android off to its own separate event. But if you still had any doubts about the popularity of G

Yet another bad three months as Tesla reports its Q2 2025 results

Tesla posted its financial results for the second quarter of 2025 this afternoon. The numbers show yet another bad three months for the automaker. As competition in the EV marketplace has exploded, Tesla has increasingly been left behind, with a small and aging model lineup, before we even contemplate how CEO Elon Musk has tarnished what was once the hottest brand in the car world. Earlier this month, we learned that sales dropped by 13 percent year over year in Q2 2025; today, the financials sh

The Pixel 10 is probably getting Qi2 25W. I just hope Google doesn’t screw it up

Although wireless charging typically isn’t the most exciting thing to talk about with a new Android phone, that’s due to change very soon. On Wednesday, the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) announced its new Qi 2.2.1 specification, which will be better known going forward as “Qi2 25W.” As the name suggests, Qi2 25W boosts wireless charging speeds to an impressive 25W — a notable step up from the 15W limit that standard Qi2 is currently capped at. The WPC says that “major Android smartphones” are

The First ‘Five Nights at Freddy’s 2’ Trailer Returns to the Scene of the Crime

Fans of the Five Nights at Freddy’s Universe were treated to an extended look at the Blumhouse and Universal Pictures sequel for the hit cinematic adaptation of the games ahead of its debut panel at San Diego Comic-Con 2025 today. The pizza animatronic puppet mascots have gone haywire again with a new series of haunted shenanigans, this time outside of their parlor walls. Actor Josh Hutcherson returns as Mike, whose little sister Abby (Piper Rubio) gets drawn back into the world of her “friends

The S25 Ultra is more expensive to make than the S24 Ultra, and it’s thanks to this part

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A new report reveals that the Galaxy S25 Ultra costs a little more to make than the Galaxy S24 Ultra. Samsung reportedly spent an estimated 21% more on the phone’s processor. The report also found that camera, casing, and RF costs were lower than last year’s phone. The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra launched way back in January, and it maintains the same $1,299 price tag as last year’s phone. However, a report suggests that the latest Ultra phone costs more to

Qi2 25W wireless phone chargers are official, but caution still advised

Last week saw certification of the first next-gen wireless chargers, and the latest standard has now been officially launched, as Qi2 25W. The new name will help ensure we can see for sure that we’re buying the more powerful models. The iPhone was the first to support the standard, with Android smartphones now following, but anyone planning to buy an iPhone 17 may want to hold off for now … A quick catch-up on Qi chargers Early wireless phone chargers were based on the original Qi standard, o

SonicWall urges admins to patch critical RCE flaw in SMA 100 devices

SonicWall urges customers to patch SMA 100 series appliances against a critical authenticated arbitrary file upload vulnerability that can let attackers gain remote code execution. The security flaw (tracked as CVE-2025-40599) is caused by an unrestricted file upload weakness in the devices' web management interfaces, which can allow remote threat actors with administrative privileges to upload arbitrary files to the system. "SonicWall strongly recommends that users of the SMA 100 series produ

Wireless Android charging is getting a big upgrade with Qi2 25W

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR The WPC has now formally branded its new high-speed wireless charging system as Qi2 25W. We just saw some of the first 25W-supporting accessories get their certifications. The WPC says that “major Android smartphones” will be using the standard, but we’re still waiting to hear who will be involved. Wireless charging on Android, for lack of a better word, is messy. Even though Android was early to the wireless charging party, Apple has since swooped in

Qi2 25W wireless charging is coming to iPhones and 'major Android smartphones'

The newest version of the Qi2 wireless standard is coming to iPhones and some Android handsets. It has also received a snappy, new branding of Qi2 25W, denoting the wireless charging speed, which is miles better than the previous name of Qi2.2. The big hook here is right in the name. Qi2 25W provides up to 25 watts of power delivery to compatible products, which is a 66 percent increase over the pre-existing Qi2 platform. Paul Struhsaker, Executive Director of the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC

Samsung Galaxy S26 Edge rumor teases the best of both worlds

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR The next Galaxy Edge phone is rumored to be even thinner than its predecessor. The rumor also suggests that the device may have a larger battery. To achieve this feat, Samsung may use “new battery material technology.” The Galaxy S25 Edge stands out from the rest of the Galaxy S25 line due to its slim and light design. However, to achieve this slender frame, Samsung had to make a number of sacrifices, which may have played a hand in its poor sales number

Faster Qi2 charging is coming to iPhones and &#8216;major&#8217; Android phones

The Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) has announced the official launch of faster Qi2 25W wireless charging, with the first devices already certified and “several hundred” yet to come. Most excitingly, it promises that alongside iPhone support, several “major Android smartphones” will finally be adopting the standard. We’ve known that faster Qi2 charging was coming, up from the prior 15W limit, with accessory brands including Anker, Ugreen, and Baseus securing early certification, and some even a

Samsung Galaxy S25 problems and how to fix them

Lanh Nguyen / Android Authority The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is here, and while it hasn’t been out for long, a few issues have already been reported on community sites like Reddit and Samsung’s official forum. This isn’t particularly surprising, as newly launched smartphones — regardless of the manufacturer — often come with bugs and other issues. Beyond these reported problems, the Galaxy S25 series may also experience minor issues common to Android devices or Samsung’s One UI. In this guide

Zach Cregger’s Mysterious New Horror Movie ‘Weapons’ Has Critics Raving

Coming off a movie as insane and surprising as Barbarian, writer-director Zach Cregger certainly knew his next movie would carry massive expectations. That movie, called Weapons, is now almost here. And, based on the first reactions, he may have just blown those expectations away. Cregger wrote and directed the film, which stars Julia Garner (Ozark, Fantastic Four: First Steps) as a teacher who walks into school one day to find almost her entire class has gone missing. No one else has gone miss

Cisco: Maximum-severity ISE RCE flaws now exploited in attacks

Cisco is warning that three recently patched critical remote code execution vulnerabilities in Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) are now being actively exploited in attacks. Although the vendor did not specify how they were being exploited and whether they were successful, applying the security updates as soon as possible is now critical. “In July 2025, the Cisco PSIRT became aware of attempted exploitation of some of these vulnerabilities in the wild,” reads the updated advisory. “Cisco c

Microsoft Sharepoint ToolShell attacks linked to Chinese hackers

Hackers with ties to the Chinese government have been linked to a recent wave of widespread attacks targeting a Microsoft SharePoint zero-day vulnerability chain. They used this exploit chain (dubbed "ToolShell") to breach dozens of organizations worldwide after hacking into their on-premise SharePoint servers. "We assess that at least one of the actors responsible for this early exploitation is a China-nexus threat actor. It's critical to understand that multiple actors are now actively explo
