Hyundai Reveals the ‘Lightspeed’ Ioniq 6 N

Following the success of its ridiculously entertaining Ioniq 5 N in 2024, Hyundai is clearly hoping it can repeat the trick by applying its speedy sub-brand's knowhow to its streamliner sibling—the result revealed today is this, the Ioniq 6 N, Hyundai's second high-performance EV.

Garmin's new Google Maps app puts your phone where it belongs: your pocket

The big screen of the Venu X1 is perfect for Google Maps. Matthew Miller/ZDNET It's summer in New York, and I'm currently navigating around the city, phone in-hand for navigation. Like everyone else, I use Google Maps religiously when I travel: going from the airport to the hotel and to various destinations around town. But I don't actually like being glued to my phone the whole time to check turns, train transfers, and directions. Also: The best Garmin watches you can buy: Strong tracking tec

How to clear your iPhone cache (and why it greatly improves the performance)

What is cache? Cache -- or browser cache -- is the temporary storage of website files. So, things like images, scripts, and cookies that your browser saves on your phone to make pages load faster the next time you visit. Also: Every iPhone model that can be updated to iOS 26 (and which ones don't support it) Over time, though, those files can add up, taking a large bite out of your device storage and slowing things down. That's why it's smart to clear your browser cache regularly. In this art

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 vs. Z Fold 6: I tried both phones, and the difference is dramatic

Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 7 Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 is arguably the biggest upgrade to its foldable phone lineup in years. In fact, it is the lightest book-style foldable available on the market right now. I went hands-on with the new Galaxy Z Fold 7, and this is the Samsung upgrade I've waited years for. The device is thin, light, and has a wider coverscreen, one that's closer to a slab phone's aspect ratio. Also: Everything announced at Samsung Unpacked: Galaxy

The most otherworldly, mysterious forms of lightning on Earth

Our atmosphere is like one big electrical circuit: Thunderstorms are the batteries that charge it up, and lightning is the current flowing through it. On the ground we see evidence of this circuit when lightning cracks and strikes the ground, or when it lights up deep inside a thundercloud, but high above the clouds lies a secret electrical zoo full of sprites, elves, and jets. These fantastical terms refer to light displays called transient luminous events or TLEs that occur in Earth’s upper a

Samsung’s 7th-gen foldables slim down, may finally fit in your pocket

There's no denying annual smartphone releases have settled into a routine—flat glass slabs with slightly faster processors and better cameras. Foldable phones buck the trend, but these products come with plenty of drawbacks. They're big and heavy, and even with all that bulk, the battery life and cameras can be lacking. Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 don't right all the wrongs, but they mark the most significant year-to-year upgrade since the company began making foldables. The new

As Waymo Debuts in Philadelphia, It May Want to Look Into the Time Furious Locals Tore Apart an Adorable Robot

The City of Brotherly Love is known for lots of things: cheesesteaks, the Liberty Bell, Paddy's Pub, and residents who don't take kindly to outsiders messing around in their business. Way back in 2015, Philadelphians' territorial nature briefly became national news when hitchBOT — a child-size hitchhiking robot that relied on the kindness of strangers and had already traversed several entire countries with their help — arrived in Philadelphia and quickly got decapitated by furious locals.

I Held the Galaxy Z Fold 7. It's So Thin I Almost Forgot It's a Foldable

Perhaps the most extraordinary thing about the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is how ordinary it feels in my hand. Well, at least when it's closed. Unfolded, it's a whole different story. I got to check out the Z Fold 7 during Samsung's Unpacked event in New York on Tuesday and Wednesday, along with the Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE.

Gen Z Deserves a Cute Flip Phone. Samsung's Cheaper Foldable Is Too Pricey to Be It

Every young person today should get to experience the specific fun, flirty pleasure of having a quirky flip phone that is both a fashion accessory and a cutting-edge piece of tech. It's the noughties tech experience in a nutshell – or a clamshell, if you will. But even though folding phones are now more sophisticated than ever thanks to advances in flexible screen technology, the devices on the market are usually extortionately expensive. Samsung's latest flagship phone, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, an

Im Never Splitting AirPods With My Wife Again Thanks to This iPhone Trick

When my wife and I travel, we usually download some shows to watch on our flight. But we always have to split a set of AirPods when we watch these shows so we each have one earbud. That means one of our ears is enjoying the show while the other is forced to endure the crying baby behind us on the plane, which can be distracting. But thanks to Apple's Audio Sharing feature, we can each enjoy a show together while using our own sets of AirPods. Audio Sharing was introduced with iOS 18 and iPadOS
