This Dock Is the Only Way to Play the Switch 2 in AR. It Was a Very Awkward Experience.

I should be used to sticking odd contraptions on my head during plane flights. I’ve planted a Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro over my eyes as my in-flight entertainment and tried not to get motion sick while imagining what other passengers think of my sci-fi asshattery. On my latest six-hour, cross-country flight, I took my Nintendo Switch 2 out of my bag, then dug in for a USB cable, two pairs of augmented reality (AR) glasses, and finally a large power brick that was supposed to make this e

I spoke with an AI version of myself, thanks to Hume's free tool - how to try it

Chiken Brave/Getty Images If you've ever had the urge to converse with an AI version of yourself, now you can -- kind of. On Thursday, AI start-up Hume announced the launch of a new "hyperrealistic voice cloning" feature for the latest iteration of its Empathic Voice Interface (EVI) model, EVI 3, which was unveiled last month. The idea is that by uploading a short audio recording of yourself speaking -- ideally between 30 and 90 seconds -- the model should be able to quickly churn out an AI-ge

Google targets cybercriminals behind massive Android malware scheme

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Google is suing the creators of BadBox 2.0, a botnet that infected 10 million off-brand Android devices. The malware often came pre-installed on cheap streaming boxes, tablets, and projectors, mostly made in China. Infected devices were used for ad fraud and to hide other cybercriminals’ activity behind your home network. Before they even turned it on, the device was already infected. That’s the reality for millions who unknowingly bought Android-powe

Phishers have found a way to downgrade—not bypass—FIDO MFA

Researchers recently reported encountering a phishing attack in the wild that bypasses a multifactor authentication scheme based on FIDO (Fast Identity Online), the industry-wide standard being adopted by thousands of sites and enterprises. If true, the attack, reported in a blog post Thursday by security firm Expel, would be huge news, since FIDO is widely regarded as being immune to credential phishing attacks. After analyzing the Expel write-up, I’m confident that the attack doesn’t bypass F

No, your Ring cameras aren’t haunted (and probably not hacked)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Ring users have started seeing multiple entries in their activity history for May 28 that they don’t recognize. Ring insists that no accounts have been compromised, and this is simply a bug displaying incorrect information. Users are still pressing for more answers, as some report entries for devices they’ve never even owned. Connecting smart cameras to the internet allows us to access our feeds from anywhere, getting alerts and checking out what’s g

Is your Ring camera showing strange logins? Here's what's going on

Maria Diaz/ZDNET If a TikTok trend has you spooked about your Ring camera's security, there's good news -- everything is ,OK and nobody is watching your videos. Over the past 24 hours, videos of a strange problem with Ring cameras have flooded TikTok. The videos make some fairly unsettling claims and urgent warnings. If you check your device history, people say, you may notice a series of logins on May 28, 2025, from devices that aren't yours. This means that for the past two months, the video

What’s on offer at a luxury Bay Area longevity clinic

Human Longevity, a medical clinic in South San Francisco’s biotech corridor, feels more like a spa than a doctor’s office. The floors of the 8,000-square-foot space are sleek and white, the walls bamboo with moss accents. Visitors are referred to as clients, not patients, as they are ushered into private rooms equipped with Wi-Fi, snacks, full bathrooms with showers, and cameras for Zoom meetings — a feature meant to accommodate executives who fly in for the day for multi-hour batteries of test

YouTube Music is finally syncing your playback progress across devices

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR YouTube Music tracks listening history across devices, but so far hasn’t offered a way to resume playback directly. With YouTube Music version 8.26.51, we’re now seeing the app sync playback progress across devices. Listeners are able to continue a playlist where they left off by tapping “Resume.” It’s a fair question: How many of us are big YouTube Music fans, and how many use it because we want YouTube Premium, signed up before Premium Lite was an

Italian YouTuber Faces Jail Time for Showing Android Handhelds With Emulated Games

There are countless Android-powered gaming handhelds, but they go beyond the usual slate of Android games by offering console emulation support. The problem is the game ROMs on these devices, which are not entirely legal. Italian YouTuber Once Were Nerd is learning how seriously some rights holders are taking game piracy after agents from the country's Guardia di Finanza showed up to confiscate his consoles. He now says the investigation could lead to criminal charges and the end of his channel

This is the model number for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite SoC. Samsung has been working on a triple-screen foldable phone, much like the HUAWEI Mate XT. Recently, there’s been a flurry of reports about the foldable, including our own story about the device being ready to be put into produ

Google is suing the BadBox 2.0 botnet group

The company said in its complaint that this China-based botnet had compromised more than 10 million uncertified devices — including TV streaming boxes, tablets and projectors. Google said that cybercriminals pre-installed malware or used malicious apps to download malware on hardware that was running open-source Android software. These compromised devices were then

Google sues to disrupt BadBox 2.0 botnet infecting 10 million devices

This ‘G’ Tri-Fold Phone Bends in Ways That Make Me Uncomfortable

Darwinian evolution is speedrunning foldable phone development. “Z”-style folds from companies like the Huawei Mate XT collapse in a zig-zag pattern, exposing one side of the screen to the elements. The new alternate universe tri-fold could be Tecno’s Phantom Ultimate G Fold concept phone that literally wraps around itself like a big “G.” This actually may be the better way to do tri-folds, but Samsung would need to think long and hard about device integrity if it’s using this same design for it

Bluetooth pairing sucks on most Google TV devices, but Google wants to change that

Damien Wilde / Android Authority TL;DR Google’s Fast Pair, meant to simplify Bluetooth pairing, is still not widely available on Google TV devices a year after its initial rollout. Despite a prior announcement suggesting a broad release, the feature is currently only supported on four devices, including the Chromecast models.
