The Galaxy Z Fold7 featured a third generation of Armor FlexHinge, which was 27% thinner and 43% lighter than the hinge inside the Z Fold6. Now the company is introducing the next innovation that will make foldable displays even tougher and slimmer while minimizing the crease – Flex Titanium. This is just a preview of what is to come on Wednesday next week. The Flex Titanium technology promises a more refined viewing experience for the new Z Folds, while making the display more resistant to external shocks and the wear and tear of being folded and unfolded hundreds of thousands…

Microsoft on Tuesday announced patches for a record-breaking 622 vulnerabilities, including two bugs in Active Directory and SharePoint Server that have been exploited in the wild as zero-days. Tracked as CVE-2026-56155, the exploited AD flaw affects Federation Services (AD FS) and could allow attackers to elevate their privileges locally to administrator. Also leading to privilege escalation, the SharePoint Server flaw is tracked as CVE-2026-56164 and can be exploited over the network without authentication. Another security defect that Microsoft drew attention to is CVE-2026-50661, a BitLocker security feature bypass issue that can be exploited by physical attackers and which was publicly…
NASA astronaut Anil Menon, along with Roscosmos cosmonauts Pyotr Dubrov and Anna Kikina, arrived safely at the International Space Station Tuesday, bringing the orbiting laboratory’s crew to 10 for about the next two weeks. The trio launched aboard the Soyuz MS-29 spacecraft at 10:47 a.m. EDT (7:47 p.m. local time) from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan. After a three-hour, two-orbit journey, the spacecraft docked at 1:52 p.m. with the station’s Prichal module. Following hatch opening, expected about 4 p.m., the new arrivals will be welcomed by the space station Expedition 74 crew: NASA astronauts Jessica Meir, Jack Hathaway, and Chris…

The Bambu Lab A2 L is a printer I’ve been expecting for some time. Essentially, it’s a larger A1, just with technology tweaks and, of course, scale. The big feature here is a 330 x 320 x 325 build area, making it one of the largest in its class of large open 3D printers.While the A1 is a superb printer for beginners, there’s often a feeling that the print…
When you buy a smartphone, you should own it. It’s a basic principle, but one that phone brands and cellular carriers rarely follow in practice. Buy an Android phone, and it’s usually loaded with pre-installed Google apps by default. Pick up a model from another Android brand, like Samsung or Motorola, and you’ll have your manufacturer’s default apps pre-installed alongside the Google apps. Use a carrier-locked Android phone from AT&T, T-Mobile, or Verizon, and bloatware is coming your way from every direction. Carrier bloatware is eating your phone’s limited storage space, and I have the numbers to back it up.…
It has been a rocky road for Disney+ series spinoff movie The Mandalorian and Grogu, which didn’t exactly land with audiences in theaters when it was released back in May. The film has ended its theatrical run officially and now has the unfortunate distinction of being the lowest-grossing live-action Star Wars film of all time, grossing just $342.2 million worldwide, far below the previous record-holder, Solo: A Star Wars Story, which grossed just $393 million worldwide. Though it’s hard to pinpoint exactly what went wrong with this film, some have speculated that the mere idea of bringing a Disney+ series…
Broadcom announced on Tuesday that new VMware Avi Load Balancer updates patch several critical and high-severity vulnerabilities. VMware Avi Load Balancer is a software-defined platform that provides load balancing, application security, and analytics for applications in hybrid and multi-cloud environments. According to Broadcom, two external researchers recently discovered that the VMware product is affected by seven potentially serious vulnerabilities. Filip Waeytens of NATO’s technology and cyber hub has been credited with discovering CVE-2026-47865, a critical authentication bypass issue that allows an attacker with network access to breach the Avi control plane. Waeytens also discovered three high-severity vulnerabilities that can allow…
Watchers held their breath as the robot made its first incision. Hovering over its patient, an anesthetized pig, with a robotic assistant standing nearby, it navigated to the gallbladder and gently removed it.The operation marked the debut of humanoid robots in a standard surgical setting. The robot, named Surgie, wasn’t autonomous—it was controlled by an expert surgeon—but the study is a step toward using humanoid robots as collaborators in minimally invasive surgery.“Remotely operated and autonomous humanoid robots have real potential for amplifying access to critical surgeries to which patients would otherwise not have access,” said study author Michael Yip at…
Samsung’s next Galaxy smartwatches could last longer than ever, thanks to bigger batteries and more efficient processors. According to a report from WinFuture, Samsung is set to swap its long-running Exynos smartwatch chips for Qualcomm’s Snapdragon Wear Elite platform. This new chip is built on a 3nm manufacturing process, and as such, should bring a welcome boost to both performance and power efficiency. As a result, everyday tasks might feel snappier while battery life could be extended. The leak also suggests that memory and storage will vary by model. Samsung is reportedly pairing the new chipset with 2GB of RAM.…
