A new report from iPhone-ticker.de says accessory makers are already preparing for Apple’s first foldable iPhone, and it includes the most concrete Apple foldable iPhone dimensions we’ve seen so far. The site says it obtained CAD drawings and measurements tied to an internal project labeled V68, with a timeline that points to September 2026. Taken at face value, this is a foldable built around a different carry compromise than a normal iPhone. Folded, it’s listed at 83.8mm (3.30 inches) wide, 120.6mm (4.75 inches) tall, and 9.6mm (0.38 inches) thick, a short, wide block that could feel steady in your hand,…
Samsung is expected to launch its next-gen flagship Galaxy S26 series early next year, and recent leaks suggest that the phones could be powered by the company’s in-house Exynos 2600 chipset. Now, ahead of the Galaxy Unpacked event, the South Korean giant has officially unveiled the SoC and shared its key specifications.

It’s the first smartphone SoC built on a 2nm process, a step up from the 3nm node used for Qualcomm’s latest Snapdragon chip. New CPU, GPU, and…
I spend more hours slouching over my laptop, or staring at an unusually large monitor than I have the guts to admit. Between work, play, and passion projects, my daily screen time is abysmally unhealthy. And to top it off, my near-permanent workation situation means ergonomics is not a luxury for me. All that has taken a visible toll. I wear prescription lenses to compensate for vision issues and blue light protection. I often resort to hot water bags or vests to make me sit straight due to the forward-neck situation. And regular water intake, or work breaks, is something…

A new investigation by Consumer Reports, in collaboration with Groundwork Collaborative and More Perfect Union, suggests that Instacart’s use of artificial intelligence in pricing experiments may have resulted in shoppers paying different amounts for the same groceries. The findings point to a system where prices can quietly vary between users, even when orders are placed at the same retailer, at the same time, and for identical products. The study tracked over 400 Instacart users across four major U.S. cities and found that the price tag on a carton of eggs or a bag of chips often depended on who was…
LimX Dynamics is doing some fascinating work in the robotics arena. Four months after impressing us with its talented Oli humanoid robot, the three-year-old tech startup has just unveiled Tron 2, which, as its name cleverly suggests, is the follow-up to Tron 1. Going by the video (top) released by LimX on Thursday, Tron 2 is an advanced, AI-powered modular humanoid robot featuring remarkable strength and movement. Grabbing your attention from the very start, the video begins with the odd sight of a pair of robotic legs — and nothing else — walking along. With a few turns of a…
Samsung is officially stepping in to shut down the panic. The company has firmly denied reports that it plans to kill off its consumer SATA SSD production. In a direct statement, a spokesperson made it clear: the rumors are false, and Samsung isn’t going anywhere. The rumors didn’t come out of nowhere. The global supply chain for memory is currently under massive pressure. With AI companies and cloud giants buying up insane amounts of hardware, manufacturers are struggling to keep up. The tension hit a breaking point recently when Micron unexpectedly pulled its Crucial brand out of the consumer SSD…
Bahrain’s effort to present itself as a destination for advanced industrial investment is encountering renewed attention as foreign court filings shed light on long-running disputes involving the financing and ownership structure of the Bahrain Titanium project. The disclosures arise primarily from proceedings in the United States, where publicly filed materials describe allegations surrounding the global titanium trade and the role of entities said to be connected to Igor Raykhelson, the businessman publicly associated with the Bahrain venture and allegedly the ultimate beneficial owner of the Interlink companies that appear throughout the record. While no allegations have been made against the…
Snapchat has started rolling out Snapchat Quick Cut iOS, a Lens-powered video creation tool that turns multiple Memories or Camera Roll clips into a beat-synced, ready-to-share video without leaving the app. The appeal is speed. After you select your photos or clips, Snapchat generates an instant preview of the rendered edit, so you can get to something shareable fast instead of bouncing through a longer manual workflow. The limitation is availability. Quick Cut is iOS-only at launch, and Snap says Android support is coming “soon,” plus expansion to more “surfaces,” but it hasn’t shared dates or a rollout schedule. Quick…

Pixel phone users have long dealt with accidental actions, like unintended calls, apps opening on their own, and the flashlight turning on while the device sits in their pocket. While brands like Samsung and OnePlus offer a built-in accidental touch protection feature that uses the proximity sensor to disable touch input when…
