Tesla has a new problem in China. BYD is finally rolling out its megawatt flash chargers at scale, and the specs leave Superchargers in the dust. These new units push 1360kW, enough to add roughly 400 kilometers of range in about five minutes. The timing matters. BYD has talked up this technology before but held back on deployment. Now construction is visibly underway based on the social media posts as reported by Car News China, and the company is betting that ultra-fast charging will pull more drivers to its EVs.

Honor’s Magic V5 claimed the slimmest foldable crown last year, and the company now seems to be gunning for the most durable foldable title with its successor. Honor is set to unveil the Magic V6 at MWC early next month, and the next-gen foldable phone will bring some serious durability upgrades. Ahead of the official launch, Honor has revealed that the Magic V6 will feature both IP68 and IP69 ratings for dust and water resistance, giving it a significant edge over Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 7, which comes with an IP48 rating. The phone will also feature a new 2,800…

You ask a chatbot for medical advice. It responds with something thoughtful. But did it actually weigh what’s at stake, or did it just get lucky with words? That’s the problem Google DeepMind tackles in a new Nature paper. The team argues that the way we test AI morality is broken. We check if models produce answers that look right, what they call moral performance. But that tells us nothing about whether the system grasps why something is right or wrong. People use LLMs for therapy, medical guidance, even companionship. These systems are starting to make decisions for us. If we can’t…

Most popular messaging apps already let you schedule a text for later, whether it’s a birthday wish timed for midnight or a reminder set to land at the start of a workday. Until now, that convenience has been missing from WhatsApp. However, a new report suggests that the Meta-owned platform is finally laying the groundwork for a native message scheduling feature that could roll out in a future update. WABetaInfo has spotted evidence of the in-development message scheduling feature in the latest WhatsApp beta for iOS. While the functionality is not yet live, the outlet reveals that the feature will…

Microsoft is weighing a significant expansion for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. The company may bundle several premium services into its $30 tier, potentially packaging subscriptions for World of Warcraft and Minecraft Realms under one roof. The talk started with The Verge’s Tom Warren, who recently noted Microsoft is early in exploring how to grow its Game Pass offerings. Jez Corden later fleshed that out. He claims to have heard Microsoft is specifically looking at tucking those extra subscriptions into Ultimate. Nothing is confirmed. But if it happens, that recent price hike suddenly makes more sense. What extra services might show…

Samsung is giving Galaxy owners a real choice in which AI runs their phone.

Perplexity is the first confirmed partner, though Samsung hints more could follow. Press and hold for Perplexity You’ll soon launch Perplexity just by talking to your phone. The agent…

Samsung is once again facing a familiar problem ahead of its latest flagship launch. Details about the upcoming Galaxy S26 series have already surfaced online through a wave of leaks, outlining specifications and features for all three models before the company’s official announcement. This year, however, the leaks appear to have gone a step further. A YouTuber has already managed to get their hands on the top-end Galaxy S26 Ultra ahead of its scheduled unveiling, sharing early hands-on coverage just days before Samsung’s launch event. Sahil Karoul, a Dubai-based technology YouTuber, purchased the African variant of the Galaxy S26 Ultra…

The four astronauts preparing to end a five-decade gap in crewed lunar flights will have to wait until at least April before they can begin the Artemis II mission. During the SLS rocket’s second wet dress rehearsal last weekend, NASA discovered an issue with the flow of helium to the rocket’s upper stage. Engineers decided that to fix the problem, the massive rocket, which is currently on the launchpad at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, will have to be transported back to the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). That four-mile rollback to the VAB is expected to take place on…

Samsung’s Galaxy Buds 4(s) are right around the corner, and the biggest improvements are coming to the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro. Samsung’s flagship earbuds will reportedly get head gestures, a feature that has been available on the AirPods Pro for quite a while (via Sammyguru). Basically, head gestures let you respond to notifications by nodding to say yes and shaking to say no. When there’s an incoming call on my iPhone, I can simply nod or shake to answer or reject the call; the same applies to incoming messages. Head gestures could finally come to Galaxy Buds (Pro) The feature…
