This upcoming Android flagship will offer a video feature not even the iPhone has

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Vivo has confirmed that the upcoming X300 series of phones will offer 4K/60fps Cinematic Portrait video capture. By contrast, the latest iPhones support 4K/30fps Cinematic video recording. Vivo claims this is a first for both Android and Apple devices. Apple’s iPhones are widely considered to be the best phones for video capture, but they’ve played catch-up to Android when it comes to some features. This includes 4K/120fps video capture, multi-camera r

3 Exciting Camera Features on Apple’s New iPhone 17 Lineup

In the early days of the smartphone, Apple had a strong lead with the camera on the iPhone consistently besting its peers. There was a period somewhere in the middle where it lagged, but over the last several years, it has produced some of the best mobile cameras on the market, and it still delivers one of the best video capture experiences—even for aspiring filmmakers. With the new iPhone 17 range—which includes the iPhone Air—Apple has a bevy of camera upgrades that go beyond more megapixels

This Unlikely Chemical Could Be a Powerful Weapon Against Climate Change

Year after year, humans pump more carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere than nature can remove, fueling global warming. As the need to mitigate climate change becomes increasingly urgent, scientists are developing ways to actively remove CO2 from the atmosphere in addition to cutting emissions. One of the biggest hurdles to scaling current carbon capture technologies is the vast amount of energy they consume, but what if there was an alternative that uses an abundant, cheap power source? A t

The Pixel 10 Pro phones got two more video upgrades you may have missed

TL;DR The Google Pixel 10 Pro phones can now film Night Sight Videos with the ultrawide camera. The phones can also use any zoom range up to 20x for Night Sight Video. Google’s Pro devices have also received an 8K/24fps option for more cinematic 8K video. The Google Pixel 10 phones offer AV1 capture, which enables smaller file sizes for your recorded videos. This isn’t the only video-related improvement, though, as the Pixel 10 Pro phones also bring a couple of other enhancements. Don’t want

Capture Checking in Scala

Hands on Capture Checking Introduction I gave a live coding session on capture checking at Scala Days 2025. Let’s be honest: it was essentially a failure, mostly because I have very little live coding experience and woefully underestimated how long it’d take to go through the material. I was stopped maybe 10% in, much to my annoyance and that of Martin Odersky, who’d kindly agreed to be there and help with the questions I was likely to get. This article is a form of apology for my failure: at

VSCO launches dedicated 'Capture' app with live previews

VSCO, the photo filter and editing app that spawned an entire culture , has released a dedicated camera app called VSCO Capture. The free iOS‑only app is a camera with live previews where users can choose from over 50 different presets with real‑time film effects and manual settings like shutter speed and exposure for fine‑tuning. The app takes the guesswork out of how your photo will look after you apply VSCO's iconic filters. “VSCO Capture is a direct response to our community’s desire to get

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 has a photo editing feature other Galaxy phones won’t get

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s One UI 8 software on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 brings enhancements to the camera and photo editor to better utilize the large display. The camera’s Capture View mode has been redesigned and now includes an always-on menu to quickly favorite, share, or delete recent shots. A new “Side-by-Side Editing” mode for Generative Edit lets you compare the original and AI-edited images. Samsung’s recently unveiled Galaxy Z Fold 7 is one of the first devices

Elgato's new Game Capture 4K S is Switch 2 compatible

Elgato’s latest capture card supports 4K at 60 fps to capture rich in‑game imagery in all its glory. The Game Capture 4K S works with just about any modern console, PC or handheld gaming device, including the Switch 2. Retailing for $160, this is the CORSAIR subsidiary’s best value yet for capturing in 4K. Elgato's higher-end 4K X supports 4K capture at 144 fps but costs quite a bit more. Though a more affordable model, the 4K S doesn't skimp where it matters. The new capture card features zero

The Pigeon River Is Perched, Which Is Geologically Bad News (2020)

A reader of the Nantahala Gorge post asked a very relevant question: Is there a stream capture in the Appalachians that is going to happen soon? While “soon” can be a very relative term in geology, there is most definitely a good answer to the question. At Canton, North Carolina, the headwaters of Hominy Creek, a French Broad River tributary, are VERY close to capturing the Pigeon River. In human terms, this is still probably a long way off, but it is most certainly geologically “imminent.” The

The AI Replaces Services Myth

During college, my class was instructed to study Schopenhauer in political philosophy. Complete bummer, pessimist, the guy just makes you want to kill yourself. There was one quote about him though that really opened my eyes. Schopenhauer's philosophy is the mirror of his own nature... What he saw was not the world, but himself writ large." Nietzsche Schopenhauer basically talked about himself. Not the world. His prior conclusions on how the world works influenced his work. However, you and

GoPro HERO13 Black Ultra Wide Edition Drops to All-Time Low, Amazon Clears Out Its Best Action Camera

The Summer holidays will be here in no time, and whether you’ve got kids or not, now’s the time to start planning all sorts of escapades. Whether you’re going to the beach, camping, going out skating, or just about anything else, it’s important to be able to capture all of the action, no matter what that action is. While a mobile phone is a great way to do this, if you want something that’s built for it, then you’ll want to get an action camera. See at Amazon There are a few brands out there t

NASA’S James Webb Space Telescope has captured its first direct image of an exoplanet

NASA’S James Webb Space Telescope has captured direct images of a planet outside of our solar system, which is the first time it has accomplished such a feat. This is a very big deal because exoplanets don't put out much light, so researchers typically discover new planets through indirect methods like keeping track of shadows as they pass across a host star. Webb, however, didn't have to do all that. It has directly captured images of a planet called TWA 7 b . Scientists believe the planet is

VSCO to launch ‘Capture,’ a standalone iPhone camera app with film-style filters

Visual Supply Co. is about to enter the increasingly competitive iPhone third-party camera app market. The company best known for VSCO: Photo Editor is launching a standalone camera app called Capture. Here’s what to expect. With Capture, VSCO joins an increasingly crowded space of third-party camera apps trying to rethink the iPhone shooting experience. Just last week, we covered Adobe’s release of Project Indigo, and how that added to great App Store options like Halide, all catering to user

iPadOS 26: Testing the new local capture for podcasting

If you’re a creator or podcaster, I’ll bet your ears perked up towards the end of the WWDC25 keynote, when Apple announced that built-in local audio and video capture during calls would be coming to iPadOS 26. And while I have tried (and repeatedly failed) to fit the iPad in my podcasting workflow, I knew Jason Snell would be one of the first to take the feature for a spin. And he did just that. Currently on iOS and iPadOS, once you’re on a call, you can’t run a second app in the background to

The real reason why oil and gas companies are bullish on carbon capture

Two years ago, oil and gas company Occidental bought carbon capture startup Carbon Engineering. The transaction was hailed as a win-win: A climate tech company scored a significant exit, and a fossil fuel company gained a foothold in a sector that could be worth up to $150 billion by 2050. Now we have a better idea why Occidental was keen to pick up the pricey technology: They want to use it to pump more oil. Previously, the company had said it would use the technology to zero out its climate
