Samsung is reportedly prepping some improvements for the Galaxy Ring‘s connectivity notifications to give users more useful information. The smart ring already notifies users when it’s running low on battery and when it disconnects from a phone, but an in-development change suggests more helpful alerts could be on the way. While digging through the latest version of Galaxy Ring Manager, Samsung’s companion app for the wearable, Android Authority discovered new code strings pointing to upcoming enhancements for these notifications. According to the findings, the disconnection alert, which appears when the Galaxy Ring loses its connection to a phone, could soon…

Lithium-sulfur batteries can pack a lot of energy for their weight. But a Science X Dialog post on Tech Xplore says they usually need more space than todays lithium-ion batteries, about 1.5 to 2 times as much. That extra bulk makes it harder to use them in gadgets where space is tight. The new design could help make thinner lithium sulfur batteries by changing the binder. The binder is basically the glue that holds the battery’s electrode together. The team whipped that glue into a foam using a protein-based material. When the foam dries, it leaves behind lots of tiny…
Generative AI is getting good at making the dead talk. The newest critique isn’t about whether it sounds real. It’s about what happens when a person’s voice, face, and emotional presence get rebuilt into something that can be reused. In a 2025 paper in New Media and Society, researchers Tom Divon and Christian Pentzold call this “spectral labor.” The concept frames AI resurrection as a form of posthumous production, where a person can keep “working” through their data after death. That can happen without consent, and without any clear guardrails. “What we resurrect may not be what we remember, but…
Rumors about a new range of laptops powered by Nvidia‘s ARM-based processors have been circulating for more than a year. Early reports pointed to Lenovo as the first manufacturer set to launch these machines, but more recent leaks suggest Dell could beat it to the punch. Now, a fresh report from Taiwan offers a clearer idea of when Nvidia-powered laptops might finally arrive. According to DigiTimes, sources familiar with Nvidia’s roadmap have revealed that the first laptops featuring the N1X chip, aimed at retail buyers, could hit the market in the first quarter of 2026.

It is a tough day for anyone who loved the underdog energy of the Zenfone or the sheer overkill of the ROG Phone. Asus has officially confirmed what the rumors were hinting at: there will be no new smartphones in 2026. They are calling it a “strategic pause,” but let’s be honest—this feels a lot heavier than just taking a gap year. According to reports from early January, the company has basically frozen its development pipeline. That means no ROG Phone 9, no Zenfone 12 Ultra, and likely nothing else for a long time. They are taking the resources that…
NVIDIA’s RTX 5070 Ti is getting harder to buy, and the squeeze is showing up at checkout. The RTX 5070 Ti end of life chatter is being driven by board partners pulling back though, with no clear public announcement from NVIDIA. ASUS has put its own RTX 5070 Ti models into end of life status and says it has no plans to produce more units because supply is too tight. That leaves shoppers fighting over whatever inventory is already out there. ASUS stops building its cards After Hardware Unboxed posted its report, it added a clarification that matters. ASUS didn’t…
Alongside upgraded specs and features, Samsung’s annual Galaxy S series refresh also brings new color options. The upcoming Galaxy S26 lineup likely won’t be different in that regard, with previous leaks pointing to a striking orange colorway, seemingly inspired by the iPhone 17 Pro‘s Cosmic Orange finish. However, a fresh leak suggests this might not be the signature color for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Every year, Samsung launches a signature colorway for its top-end flagship, which takes center stage in its marketing material. When the orange variant first surfaced in leaks last year, it was widely expected to be the…
