The company is launching three closely related phones today – let’s have a closer look. TCL P80 Ultra As you can tell by the name, the TCL P80 Ultra is the “no effort spared” flagship of the series.

Add Android Authority on Google: TL;DR Roborock is getting into pool cleaners with its new RockAqua P1. Another new outside model is the RockNeo Q2 LiDAR, an upgrade to the company’s lawn-mowing solutions. We’re also getting a host of new robotic vacuums, including a Saros 2o model with a roller mop.

Tracked as CVE-2026-84115, the security defect impacts the JWT refresh token logic and allows remote attackers to elevate their privileges via argument bearer manipulation.

Sign up to see the future, today Can’t-miss innovations from the bleeding edge of science and tech When the long awaited role playing game “Fallout 4” dropped in 2015, it marked the first installation in the franchise in five years. The release quickly became a running joke, with working class gamers yukking it up over their plans to call in sick the day it hit store shelves, and the game’s developer even issuing a bogus doctor’s note. Now history seems to be repeating itself — and this time for almost certainly the most hyped game ever, making its release an…

TVs might be more technologically advanced than ever before, but there are still problems that have to be fixed. As TVs became more modern, so did the surrounding technology. It’s not shocking to see somebody own an Xbox, PlayStation, Switch, and a streaming device. If that sounds like you, then you have four HDMI slots that are accounted for, and that creates a big problem. Many TVs just don’t have the ports needed to have things plugged in all the time, so you have to swap the cords around depending on your situation, and that gets annoying fast. It gets…
