Two teenagers charged over Transport for London cyber attack Two teenagers have been charged as part of a National Crime Agency (NCA) investigation into a cyber attack on Transport for London. TfL suffered a major hack on 31 August last year, which investigators believe was carried out by members of the cyber-criminal group, Scattered Spider. Thalha Jubair, 19, from east London, and Owen Flowers, 18, from Walsall in the West Midlands, were arrested at their home addresses on Tuesday by the NC

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-20 02:30:52

Google Pixelsnap Charger with Stand The Pixelsnap Charger with Stand offers a clean aesthetic and a very solid and hefty build quality. Unfortunately, it has a non-removable 1m USB-C cable and doesn't allow for any stand adjustment or portability. It promises 25W of Qi2.2 wireless charging, but fails to deliver that power consistently over a full charge, often dropping to slower Qi2 15W charging speeds. When Google announced the Pixel 10’s Pixelsnap accessory ecosystem, the one thing that drew

Here’s how to find it. As spotted by MacRumors, Apple published a new support page this week with new details about Apple Watch charge speeds. As the document explains it: “With watchOS 26, if your Apple Watch detects that your charging experience could be improved, you’ll see a Slow Charger message in Settin

Android brands should learn honesty from Apple’s fast charger (?!)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-27 03:45:30

TL;DR Apple’s new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter with 60W Max provides more transparent marketing than most other fast chargers. The charger’s branding differentiates between sustained power (40W) and peak power (60W). It supports the USB PD 3.2 AVS protocol, a step toward more open charging solutions, unlike many proprietary Android chargers. Apple launched the iPhone 17 series last week, but there was one new piece of hardware launched alongside it that flew under the radar: Apple’s new 40W Dyna

Apple's new iPhone charger dynamically switches between 40 and 60W

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-27 04:30:53

If you want a powerful phone charger in the smallest size possible, Apple has the answer — but there is a tradeoff. The company's new 40W Dynamic Power Adapter is the first charger to support the USB PD 3.2 AVS (adjustable voltage supply) protocol so it can hit up to 60W, but only for a limited time. It was designed to work the company's new iPhone 17 models with faster charging speeds than previous iPhones. Lugging heavy chargers is a particularly bugbear of mine so the Dynamic Power Adapter s

Apple introduced 25W wireless charging with the iPhone 16 ahead of the Qi2.2 specification being officially introduced early this year, which is why the faster rate was only available when using Apple’s own wireless charger.
