Apple Watches already have hypertension notifications, but the Cupertino giant may be working on another blood pressure-related feature that goes further than the alert system available today. According to Digitimes, Apple has a new high blood pressure notification feature under review by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. That wording is a little tricky because Apple already released hypertension notifications in September 2025 with watchOS 26. The feature works on Apple Watch Series 9 and later, and Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Watch Ultra 3, in supported regions. How would blood pressure alerts work? It is not clear yet how…
Scientists have pushed wireless speed into territory that current mobile networks can’t touch. A Tokushima University team demonstrated a 112Gbps wireless connection in the 560GHz band, using soliton microcombs to generate a more stable terahertz signal for future 6G systems. The near-term prize isn’t a faster handset. It’s the hidden infrastructure that carries traffic between network sites, where backhaul capacity can decide whether future 6G speeds feel real or get trapped behind crowded network pipes. That makes this a useful 6G speed breakthrough to watch, even if consumers won’t see it on a spec sheet anytime soon. Why does this…
Major smartphone brands are racing to turn phones into agentic AI assistants that can do more than answer prompts. Google gave a clear preview of that future at its recent Android show, and Samsung has been moving in the same direction with Galaxy AI. Now, a new leak suggests Samsung may be planning a hardware upgrade that could push more AI tasks directly onto future Galaxy phones. That sounds useful on paper. More on-device AI could mean faster responses, stronger privacy, and fewer features that need to reach out to the cloud. There is also a possible downside. If Samsung…
A new study by Yango Group and INSEAD examines how the UAE has moved beyond AI pilots to treat artificial intelligence as public infrastructure — and distills transferable lessons for policymakers worldwide. Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, 18 May 2026 – Governments that treat artificial intelligence as part of their core operating infrastructure — rather than a collection of standalone projects — are better positioned to scale AI sustainably across public services, according to new research published by Yango Group and INSEAD. The paper, AI as Public Infrastructure: Lessons from the UAE for Government Transformation, argues that AI in government has reached…
For years, the Shortcuts app on the iPhone has remained one of the most frustrating parts of the user experience. On one hand, it’s an utterly powerful app to create automations and perform multi-step tasks in a jiffy. However, the process of creating a shortcut has been pretty complicated and almost a test of patience. It appears that Apple has finally listened to the feedback of iPhone users and is planning to give a major functional overhaul to the Shortcuts app with the release of iOS 2027. As per Bloomberg, Apple will finally let users describe the exact shortcut they…
Sony is raising PlayStation Plus prices for new customers from May 20, adding another cost increase to an already pricey console generation. The change applies in select regions and affects the shorter subscription options.

However, subscribers in Turkey and India may also see the change. Starting May…
Over the last few years, Sony gradually got PC gamers used to the idea that most major PlayStation exclusives would eventually land on Steam. Games like God of War, Spider-Man, Horizon, Ghost of Tsushima, and The Last of Us all made the jump sooner or later. But earlier this year, reports suggested that Sony was planning to stop releasing future single-player PlayStation titles on PC and keep them locked to PS5 instead. Now, it looks like those fears are finally becoming reality. Sony reportedly wants PlayStation exclusives to stay exclusive again Bloomberg’s Jason Schreier, who originally reported this story back…
