Case designs for the wide-style Galaxy Z Fold 8 have appeared online, and some show the phone inside them. | Image: Android Headlines Samsung is expected to unveil its next generation of foldables at a Galaxy Unpacked event next month, but now we know what they might look like, courtesy of some leaked images published by Android Headlines. Images shared by the publication include case designs for two new Galaxy Z Fold 8 models and the Galaxy Z Flip 8, each giving a good look at the phones inside the cases too.This could be our closest look so far at Samsung's new wide-style foldable, following a leak of a purported dummy unit in May and a fresh photo of an apparent dummy unit from leaker Ice Universe this week. There are some similarities between all of these leaks: The …Read the full story at The Verge.

The Avinox MG Concept MGU coming next year. | Image: Avinox Imagine an e-bike motor that lets you select your preferred pedaling cadence and then automatically adjusts the gears to keep your legs spinning at that exact speed, no matter how steep the hill gets - all without a fragile derailleur or heavy multi-speed cassette to maintain. Prefer manual control? No problem, you can have as many gears as you like in whatever ratio makes you feel most connected to the terrain. That's the e-bike motor announced last week at the big Eurobike trade show in Frankfurt, by not just one company, but two. Pictured above is the MG Concept. It's a Motor Gearbox Unit, or MGU, from Avinox, the DJI spinoff that's upe …Read the full story at The Verge.

One of my biggest reasons for starting a home lab was my obsession with archiving data. After all, storing a few dozen TBs of data on the cloud isn’t feasible in the long term, as I’d end up shelling out hundreds of bucks in just a few years. Not to mention, relying on an external platform to store my painstakingly-collected media isn’t ideal from a privacy standpoint.

What sets Google's Pixel apart from many other Android phones is its clean interface and focus on simplicity. Google's version of Android is designed to avoid unnecessary clutter and superfluous features, but that simplicity doesn't come at the expense of features. Over the years, Google has added a surprising number of productivity tools that many Pixel owners probably never even discovered, and that certainly includes me.

My couch gaming setup is a Bazzite ATX PC wired to the living room TV, and for years it's had one nagging weak point: the controller. Not any single controller, but the whole category. Everything I tried got part of it right, but had a glaring downside. The Xbox controller I own worked out of the box with every game, but didn't have any controls resembling a mouse, and connecting via my old sketchy Bluetooth receiver meant connection would drop very easily. A DualSense had the gyro, but connecting them always felt like a compromise, especially on Linux.

Canva needs no introduction. With over 260 million monthly users and a template library in the millions, it's pretty much the default most people go to when they need anything visual, and the reason is obvious. You don't need to understand what a bleed margin is, know how to draw, know the difference between raster and vector, or know how to create a decent graphic from start. That's the entire point of Canva.

One of my favorite DIY projects to cover is people reproducing video game technology in real life. People see something cool in-game, and their first instinct is to try to make one for themselves as close to the source material as possible. This usually ends up with people making their own Pip-Boys from the Fallout series, but sometimes we see something a lot more complex.

The idea of an OS running off a floppy disk isn't particularly new; in fact, I gave one a try a year and a half ago. However, not all of them are as cool or as cute as HamsterOS, a full-blown GUI-based operating system designed to run off the 1.44MB storage medium. For an operating system that runs off a long-dead data drive, HamsterOS certainly looks the part, and if you have a floppy disk lying around collecting dust, you can give it a spin in November.

If you've ever read one of my ESP32 pieces, you'll know I'm a huge sucker for e-Ink devices. They look incredible, to the point where you can just hang one up on your wall and it'd fit right in with the rest of your art. However, they do have low refresh rates, which means they're often delegated to showing photos and smart home dashboards. Which isn't a bad thing; it's just a limitation.

The booming AI market has been amazing for innovation, but not so great for consumer electronics. All you need to do is Google how much a premade PC cost around this time last year versus today, and you can feel your bank account scream out in terror. Well, it seems that Nvidia is giving gamers struggling to secure a new RTX 50 GPU a hand, as it has reportedly begun releasing new RTX 3060s for people to buy. And the strange thing is, they're almost identically priced as they were when they first released.

I have used enough IDEs to know when something genuinely changes the way I work. Cursor made coding faster, VS Code’s agents made it feel smarter, and Claude Code showed me how powerful an agent-first workflow can be. But after spending a week with Antigravity 2.0’s agentic workflow, going back to a standard IDE felt outdated. I wasn’t just typing prompts and waiting for code.

The PC hardware market is no longer the same as it was four years ago, and that means the mistakes you make while assembling a rig don't impact you quite the same way they used to. The cost of correcting an oversight has gone up considerably, and the timeline for being able to correct it cheaply has stretched out indefinitely, which is a fact that anyone who's been following the RAM economy is painfully aware of.
