The A20 and A20 Pro'will definitely benefit from TSMC's 2nm "N2' process, but a chipset's packaging also makes a monumental difference. According to the latest rumor, this change will improve heat dissipation, resulting in increased performance. The switch from InFO (Integrated Fan-Out) to WMCM (Wafer-level Multi-Chi Module) will make all the difference in the world for the iPhone 18 series - [] [iPhone 18]The introduction of a vapor chamber enabled the iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone 17 Pro Max to deliver better sustained performance, but Apple is expected to bring changes at a deeper level next year when it announces the iPhone 18 family The A20 and A20 Pro will definitely benefit from TSMC's 2nm "N2' process,…...

"read more The best part about BEV and hybrid cars is probably the bit where their electronics are taken out for a good teardown and comparison with previous generations and competing designs. Case in point: This [Denki Otaku] teardown of a fifth-generation Prius inverter and motor controller, which you can see in the video below. First released in 2022, this remains the current platform used in modern Prius hybrid cars. Compared to the fourth-generation design from 2015, the fifth generation saw about half of its design changed or updated, including the stack-up and liquid cooling layout. Once [Otaku] popped open the big aluminium box containing the dual motor controller and inverters, we…...

The Anker SOLIX PS200 represents the other half of the off-grid equation: the generation node. For field engineers and remote workers, solar isn't about "free energy"; it's a math problem involving surface area, conversion efficiency, and angle of incidence. This panel is engineered to optimize those variables, boasting a 23% efficiency rating and a chassis designed for optimal alignment. Let's break down the physics and build quality behind this energy harvesting machine. Solar yield is directly proportional to the cosine of the angle between the sun's rays and the panel's normal vector. If you are off by 10 degrees, your yield drops significantly. The Anker SOLIX PS200 features a 4-angle adjustable kickstand. For a deeper dive into real-world output data and durability tests, check the…...

1+ hour, 18+ min ago (497+ words) As tempting as the Galaxy S25 Ultra may look on paper, all signs point to its successor, the Galaxy S26 Ultra, being the real flagship to wait for. With launch expected in February 2026, the S26 Ultra is shaping up to be Samsung's most refined and forward-thinking phone in years. The leaks make a compelling case for patience. Samsung is also reportedly using a next-gen Gorilla Armor glass with improved anti-reflection and durability, along with a 15% larger vapor chamber for better cooling. These tweaks might not sound revolutionary, but they point to a phone that will feel cooler, sharper, and more balanced to use, especially during long gaming or video editing sessions. Leaked details suggest the S26 Ultra's 6.9-inch AMOLED screen will be backed by a new CoE depolarizer layer that improves brightness and efficiency by letting more light through the panel. There is also…...

1+ hour, 20+ min ago (538+ words) Beijing's XXL drone submarines suggest a new approach to projecting power across the Pacific. China is reportedly testing large unmanned underwater drones that could, it is claimed, be used to blockade important sea routes like the Panama Canal or the U.S. West Coast. Technically called an Extra-Extra-Large Uncrewed Underwater Vehicle (XXLUUV), these drones are not dissimilar in size to conventional diesel submarines but are completely autonomous. Because such drones do not need to reserve space for human crews, they can dedicate more space to things like fuel, batteries, sensors, and, of course, weapons. They also reportedly have exceptionally long ranges, meaning they could potentially traverse the Pacific and loiter for long periods. According to reports, the new submarines are over 131 feet (40 meters) long and most likely have a hybrid diesel-electric propulsion system. They also likely benefit from large battery banks, which…...

Samsung officially launched the beta on December 8, and since then, we've discovered a surprising number of new features and settings. While there's a lot to like about One UI 8.5, having used the update myself for a few days, it's clear to me which new feature is the best. And I won't beat around the bush " it's Samsung's new Quick Settings. With One UI 8.5, Samsung has taken off all guardrails and gives you free rein to make your Quick Settings look like whatever you want them to. And compared to One UI 8, the difference in customization options is staggering. Previously, Samsung only let you add/remove toggles from the expandable menu. Things like the media playback widget, smart home controls, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth toggles, and…...

1+ hour, 23+ min ago (1018+ words) A little more accessible than the Apple Vision Pro, this Android XR headset could use more polish. I have had the new M5-powered Apple Vision Pro and Samsung Galaxy XR headsets sitting on my desk for several weeks. These are expensive, cutting-edge pieces of hardware. Apple's version is $3,499! Samsung's headset is roughly half that'still a pretty penny at $1,800. Mustering the energy to don them has been a task. You can watch movies, play immersive games, and get some work done with multiple virtual screens. None of these experiences has been so compelling that I want to wear a headset on my face for more than an hour. Still, I gave it the ol' college try, and my takeaway is that Google and Samsung have more work ahead of them to improve the Android XR experience; I've also had a strange…...
