Ever since the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, there has been a visible clamoring among enthusiasts for more palm-friendly and smaller phones. And trust me, it’s not merely nostalgia. I’ve been using Samsung’s compact foldable phone for weeks, and the only reason that I can’t stop using it is that it’s just so comfortable to hold and easy to slide in your pocket. What if a candybar-style phone could mimic that form factor? Well, Huawei just heard your prayers. The latest from the Chinese technology giant is the Pura X View. It comes with a wide 16:9.5 aspect…

You’re either thinking about getting a new Pixel 11 or already have one in your hand when you’re going through this, thinking about the possible accessories that you can pair with the beautiful smartphones Google launched in August 2026. As always, I’ve looked at dozens of Pixel 11 accessories on Amazon, only to find seven that actually deserve your money.  These include a $20 third-party dual-port charger that rivals Google’s $70 charging dock. Some solve a real annoyance, like fumbling for a cable at night; others are just genuinely nice to have around a Pixel 11, because why not. So,…

Instagram has spent the last few weeks trying to clean up harassment videos recorded using Ray-Ban Meta smart glasses. The platform deactivated two pickup-artist accounts, each with over a million followers, after they were found to be posting videos of women recorded without their consent. However, a recent Business Insider investigation found that the crackdown hasn’t been going well, with dozens of similar videos still circulating on the platform. That failure to catch problematic videos isn’t limited to public harassment anymore. A report from Futurism reveals that teenage boys are using Meta’s smart glasses to record classmates and teachers at…

I like minimalist phones more in theory than I probably would in practice. I want fewer reasons to stare at a screen, but I also know I’m used to my phone doing ordinary things quickly and without putting up a fight. That’s why the Minimal Phone 2 interests me. It swaps the original model’s E-paper display for a smoother 90Hz AMOLED panel, alongside faster hardware, 5G, and better cameras. If I were buying one, I’d probably want most of those upgrades too. The problem is that once you add them all together, the Minimal Phone starts looking suspiciously like the…

LG Display says its new FLiPP OLED technology can make displays last 2.4 times longer than panels made with conventional fine metal masks under the same conditions. It also claims a 1.6x increase in brightness while cutting power use by 13%. LG Display plans to bring FLiPP to IT products such as monitors and tablets first, which gives the technology a fairly direct path from the lab to products people might actually buy. That puts OLED monitors near the front of the line for testing whether those numbers hold up once FLiPP moves into mass production. How FLiPP changes OLED…
