Samsung is rolling out a new feature for its Galaxy range of smartphones that is designed to help users understand which apps will actually work when connected to a satellite network. There’s a new “Satellite-ready” apps section, which lists all the apps that remain functional even when the phone is outside of traditional cellular network connectivity. These apps still work via satellite connectivity, so now, users won’t have to guess which apps are functional and can quickly check in the system settings. This makes off-grid connectivity easier to understand Samsung has been gradually expanding satellite communication support across its devices…
The team at TUM’s (Technical University of Munich) Learning Systems and Robotics Lab has developed a humble-looking robot that resembles a stick on wheels with a camera on top. However, don’t let the looks fool you. It might be one of the most useful robots designed for everyday people. Led by Prof. Angela Schoellig, the team has built a robot that can find lost items by creating and analyzing a spatial map of its surroundings. Next time you can’t find your keys or glasses, you won’t lose your sanity, as this robot will find them for you. How does the…
Let’s get this out of the way now. OLED is absolutely undefeated when it comes to contrast and viewing angle. If I had the budget to build a dedicated home theater space in my home, and money was no object, I would be mounting the largest OLED TV I could get my hands on in that space. Something like LG’s 98-inch G5 OLED, which would run me a cool $25,000. Alas, most of us don’t have that kind of pocket change lying around, and most homes don’t have purpose-built blacked-out home theaters. For most of us with regular living rooms…
Samsung’s next clamshell folding phone could end up being a disappointment in the battery department. Despite the Galaxy Z Flip 7 seeing a humble battery bump, its successor might not bring a similar upgrade. This is quite the bummer for anyone expecting Samsung to improve the battery life on its flip phone. What’s in the leak? According to a GalaxyClub report, the Galaxy Z Flip 8 may use two battery cells rated at 1,150mAh and 3,024mAh. This gives it a total rated capacity of 4,174mAh, which will likely be marketed as 4,300mAh. If the leak is true, this would mean…
We’ve all heard the saying: “screens before bed are bad,.” Yet somehow, I’ve been watching screens to go to sleep after a day of working with the screens for around eight to 10 hours. Well, I might consider switching to Samsung’s micro RGB TVs for both my work and leisure requirements, as they’ve recently got an eye- and sleep-friendly certification. In a press release, the Korean tech giant has announced that its Micro RGB TV (the R95H model) has received two certifications from VDE (which is a German testing body). What certifications has the Samsung TV received? The Samsung TV…
The Beats Studio Pro is down to $169.95 at Amazon right now in a limited-time deal, which is $180 off the $349.99 list price. That’s a 51% cut on a pair of over-ear headphones that offer active noise canceling, 40-hour battery life, and USB-C lossless audio in a package that works equally well with Apple and Android devices. It’s a lot to like at under $170. What you’re getting The Studio Pro is the most fully featured headphone Beats has put out, and a lot of that comes down to the USB-C lossless audio capability, which is a genuine differentiator…
If you’ve ever squinted at your ROG Xbox Ally X’s screen and thought that it could be a little sharper, Xbox (and Microsoft) heard you, loud and clear. In April 2026, the handheld gaming PC will get a free software update that will make your games look better. No hardware updates or additional costs included. Xbox will release a feature called Automatic Super Resolution or Auto SR — Microsoft’s AI-powered answer to Nvidia’s DLSS and AMD’s FSR — which upscales video games from 720p up to 1080p or more (via Windows Central). What does the Auto SR feature do? The…
I have my issues with WWE 2K26 that you can read all about in my review, but when I don’t have to engage with the content that bugs me the most, it’s still a fun time. With the Road to Wrestlemania in full swing, ’tis the season to throw down in 2K’s annual wrestling sim. And if you hate the game’s sim-style gameplay, I highly recommend going into the menus and turning off all of the mini-games, stamina, and weight detection to make it closer to an arcade experience. Now that the review period is over, I’ll continue unlocking Ringside Pass…
Smartphone enthusiasts like me will never forget the time when modular phones were about to change everything. Whether it was Google’s canceled Project Ara or the more popular Moto Z series, nothing really panned out as well as the Fairphone, but even it isn’t as mainstream as some other brands. So, most users just live with their non-modular smartphones on a day-to-day basis, having already grieved about the idea that once raised plenty of hopes. Well, about that, an upcoming foldable could change that conversation entirely. What exactly is Xiaomi cooking? I’m talking about the Xiaomi Mix Fold 5. Early…
I used to be of the opinion that MacBooks are relatively safer than other laptops, but I have been proven wrong. Embarrassingly and demonstrably wrong. A new report from Sophos X-Ops has spared no effort in rubbing my nose in it. Researchers at the firm tracked three separate attack campaigns between November 2025 and February 2026, all of which targeted macOS users with something called the MacSync infostealer. For those catching up — it’s a type of malware that quietly rifles through your passwords and saved credentials, acting like a digital pickpocket. So, how does it actually work? The malware…
