Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which could end up being called the iPhone Ultra, may have more going for it than a wider form factor. A fresh Weibo post from tipster Instant Digital (刹那数码) claims the phone could also be easier to open, repair, and take apart than other foldable phones. Foldables are still notoriously difficult to fix because of their compact layouts, fragile displays, and complex cable routing. Even Google’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which is considered one of the more repairable foldables, only received a 4 out of 10 repairability score from iFixit. That should give you an idea…

Large file transfers have a habit of starting fast and finishing slow, and thermal throttling is typically to blame. Satechi’s new DotDisk SSD enclosure addresses that with a built-in microfan to keep your drive cool under load. A built-in fan solves the problem passive cooling can’t Most compact SSD enclosures rely on their metal shell alone to shed heat. That works fine for short bursts, but sustained transfers, large video exports, or back-to-back backups generate enough heat to trigger throttling, cutting speeds mid-transfer. The DotDisk pairs a microfan with a thermal pad to actively pull heat away from the drive,…

The laptop in the patent is shown using built-in sensors in the palmrest to detect the position of the user’s arms and adjust the function of the keys accordingly.

The year is 2026, and the OLED revolution has officially landed on our desks. Not just in flashy ads or YouTube thumbnails, but right there in your shopping cart.

Most people who use AI daily, including me, have already found their preferences. I use a paid Claude subscription to help with my editorial chores (headline brainstorming, fine-tuning the tone, etc.), while Gemini is my go-to AI model for image generation and background research, especially when I want to go deep on a topic. Maybe you use Perplexity for search or ChatGPT for code, and that’s absolutely fine, as it only boosts your productivity and gets you the right information faster. The problem is, the operating system on your phone or laptop isn’t aware of your choice, and until now,…

A fake beard might be the funniest new loophole in online safety check. According to a recent Internet Matters report, some children have been drawing facial hair on themselves to trick facial age-estimation tools into thinking they are older. One parent said their 12-year-old used an eyebrow pencil to draw a moustache and was verified as 15. Can a fake beard really beat online age checks? It sounds funny at first, however, this trick points to a much bigger cat-and-mouse problem. Platforms are adding stricter checks because of laws like the U.K. Online Safety Act, while younger users are finding…
