4 Best Folding Phones (2025), Tested and Reviewed

Other Folding Phones to Consider Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 Photograph: Julian Chokkattu Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 for $1,100: Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip7 (7/10, WIRED Recommends) is a close second to Motorola's Razr Ultra. I liked the camera quality from Motorola's flip phone this year more than Samsung's—a big win for the Razr—but the Flip7 still captures nice photos and offers better video quality, if that's your thing. Samsung's latest Flip has a larger front screen, though you still have to jump th

We found Google’s next Pixel-only calling feature and it’s borrowed from Apple (APK teardown)

Google already packs its Pixel phones with a bunch of smart calling features like Call Screening

Another Galaxy S26 Ultra leak pours cold water on a battery upgrade

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Another leaker has claimed that the Galaxy S26 Ultra will have a 5,000mAh battery. This comes after a reliable outlet made the same claim earlier this month. That means Samsung’s Ultra phone will have the same battery capacity for the seventh time. We’ve seen many flagship Android phones with huge batteries this year, but the Galaxy S25 Ultra retains a 5,000mAh battery. We previously heard that Samsung won’t change things on the Galaxy S26 Ultra, and anot

These secret Netflix codes saved me from canceling my subscription - here's why

Adam Breeden/ZDNET Netflix wasn't the first streaming platform, but it was the first to make video-on-demand mainstream. Fourteen years ago, as it phased out its mailing service, it took a massive bite out of the global market. Also: This 30-second fix made my Roku TV run like new again (and why it works) Remember that? Physical DVDs showing up in your actual mailbox -- the one at the end of your driveway (or your hallway)? To my surprise, that was still actually a thing up until late 2023. W

Leprechauns, root causes, and other fairy tales

This is a short talk I gave a while ago about how complex systems fail, and root cause analysis. Transcript is below.

Electric cars produce far less brake dust pollution than combustion-engine cars

“It’s not just the tailpipe y’all,” joked one Electrek commenter, alluding to the black discolorations on alloy wheels visible proof of a less infamous city pollutant: brake dust. For decades, exhaust emissions have been the focus of city-air cleaning initiatives, but a new wave of research indicates that the real story goes far beyond the muffler.

Google DeepMind's Aeneas model can restore fragmented Latin text

At its best, AI is a tool, not an end result. It allows people to do their jobs better, rather than sending them or their colleagues to the breadline. In an example of "the good kind," Google DeepMind has created an AI model that restores and contextualizes ancient inscriptions. Aeneas (no, it's not pronounced like that) is named after the hero in Roman mythology. Best of all, the tool is open-source and free to use. Ancient Romans left behind a plethora of inscriptions. But these texts are oft

AI's not the only hot tech trend - check out the year's other 11, according to McKinsey

MicroStockHub/Getty When we hear the word "technology," most of us automatically think of hardware; the physical devices that have become such a conspicuously present part of many of our day-to-day lives.

I Tried T-Mobile's New Satellite Service for Texting in Dead Zones. Here's How It's Different

If you've traveled to remote areas where cellular coverage doesn't reach, you know that anxious feeling when your communications slam to a halt.

After $380M hack, Clorox sues its “service desk” vendor for simply giving out passwords

Hacking is hard. Well, sometimes. Other times, you just call up a company's IT service desk and pretend to be an employee who needs a password reset, an Okta multifactor authentication reset, and a Microsoft multifactor authentication reset... and it's done. Without even verifying your identity. So you use that information to log in to the target network and discover a more trusted user who works in IT security. You call the IT service desk back, acting like you are now this second person, and

Computing’s Top 30: Tejas Chopra

SpaceX Has the Nerve to Be Mad About a Competitor’s Massive Satellites Littering Earth Orbit

Despite owning more than half of the satellites currently in low Earth orbit, SpaceX is complaining about AST SpaceMobile’s BlueBird constellation and how it’ll introduce added risks. In a letter sent to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), SpaceX raised concerns that AST SpaceMobile poses a threat to the sustainability of low Earth orbit.

Trump’s AI Action Plan aims to block chip exports to China but lacks key details

The Trump administration wants its AI technology to be considered an industry leader both on home soil and abroad. But it also doesn’t want the U.S.’s AI prowess to empower or embolden a foreign adversary. That’s quite the balance to strike. If President Trump’s AI Action Plan, which was released on Wednesday, is any indicator, the administration seems to still be figuring out the right course of action to achieve those goals. “​​America currently is the global leader on data center construct
