Since 2023, Call of Duty has been trying to rebuild trust. This is largely due to Modern Warfare III and Black Ops 7 launching in less-than-ideal states, which led to them being among the lowest-rated in the franchise. Infinity Ward’s first step toward bringing players back and rebuilding confidence is to set up a campaign in Korea.”We’re in the middle of what they call the third Hallyu wave, the name they give to the spread of Korean culture throughout the world,” co-studio head Jack O’Hara says in a hands-off presentation of the campaign. Aside from cultural impacts, another reason the…
Budget laptops have always been a compromise. You either get a machine that struggles to keep up with your browser tabs or one that dies before lunch. And almost all of them feature a cheap plastic body. Qualcomm wants to change that with its new Snapdragon C Platform, a chip built specifically for entry-level laptops starting at $300. Qualcomm says that the Snapdragon C is designed for students, families, and small businesses that need a reliable, everyday machine without breaking the bank. Devices powered by this chip will handle web browsing, video streaming, productivity apps, and video calls without a…
A supposed Modern Warfare 4 cover art leak is circulating online, and the post sharing it already warns readers to be careful around fake leaks. That caution fits the moment. Call of Duty speculation is moving quickly again, but the stronger thread is tied to platforms, not artwork. Insider NateTheHate affirmed a user’s claim that the next Call of Duty should be the first game in the series on Nintendo Switch 2. The same claim has also been linked to Modern Warfare 4 as the title that would bring the franchise back to Nintendo hardware. Microsoft has already signed a…
Apple has yet to officially reveal any details about its first-ever foldable iPhone. Though an accessory maker may have offered us one of the most believable leaks of the iPhone Fold. A new iFunSmart listing has been spotted online (via MacRumors) that appears to line up with an earlier CAD render. Case makers often work from leaked CAD files or dummy units before a device hits the market, so these designs are still speculative. But they can be surprisingly accurate as well. How the case reveals a cleaner foldable design The iFunSmart listings show a slim folding case with separate…
Samsung’s next big foldable may have surfaced early, and the standout change is hard to ignore. A leaked dummy unit said to show the Samsung Fold 8 Wide points to a much slimmer profile than the company’s current book-style foldables. The short video compares the mockup with what’s described as a Galaxy S25 Edge, suggesting the foldable could close down to a surprisingly slim shape. For Samsung, that would mark a noticeable design shift after years of Fold models that packed strong hardware into bodies that still felt bulky beside newer rivals. Still, this is not a Samsung reveal. The…
Valve has made the Steam Deck much more expensive, and that is a worrying signal for anyone waiting on the upcoming Steam Machine. The 512GB Steam Deck OLED now costs $789, rising from its previous $549 price, while the 1TB OLED model has moved from $649 to $949. Valve has linked the increase to higher memory and storage costs, which are being driven by the ongoing AI boom. Now, a well-known Valve leaker has shared a disappointing update for gamers waiting for the Steam Machine. Why the Steam Machine price may be difficult In a recent tweet on X, leaker…

Apple may have a black Vision Pro hiding somewhere in its labs. A new leak on X (formerly Twitter) has shared images of an all-black Vision Pro headset, with a recognizable power strap and audio pod that looks similar to the current Apple Vision Pro hardware. Except, Apple doesn’t sell its MR headset (Mixed Reality) with a dark finish. @LusiRoy8 on X claims that these parts belong to an upcoming second-generation Apple Vision Pro in black. The black finish is doing a lot of work here This is still a parts leak, so it should not be treated as proof…
Sony just announced two new BRAVIA televisions, the BRAVIA 9 II and BRAVIA 7 II, and they might usher in a new era of living room TVs. Built around a technology the company is calling True RGB, instead of using a single white backlight like most TVs, these displays use independently controlled red, green, and blue LEDs to produce color directly from the source. Sony claims this results in the largest color volume ever achieved in its home TV lineup. The company has been working toward this for over two decades, starting with the Qualia 005 back in 2004. True…
