Amazon Prime Video’s ad-free tier gets a new name and a price hike
You might not know this, but Amazon Prime Video actually has a higher-tier subscription, similar to Netflix, which offers an ad-free experience. Most people just get Prime Video as part of their Amazon Prime subscription. Well, this is one tier above that and costs extra - $4.99 a month, up from $2.99 after this new price hike. The service also has a new name – Prime Video Ultra. It’s not all bad news, though. Amazon actually invested quite a bit in upgrading this new Ultra tier. It now comes with the option to watch 4K/UHD streams with optional Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos. The concurrent...

Instagram is removing end-to-end encryption
In a very definitive case of 'not something that happens very often', Instagram has decided to remove end-to-end encryption (E2EE). It wasn't that long ago when Meta-owned properties like WhatsApp and Instagram were bragging about adding E2EE to their chats, but now one of them is headed in exactly the opposite direction. As you'd expect in trying to avoid a ton of online fuss regarding this matter, Instagram hasn't announced this in a press release or blog post. Instead, it's quietly updated its help section to read that E2EE will no longer be supported after May 8. So, the...

The vivo X300 Ultra will upgrade audio quality on all levels
The vivo X300 Ultra will bring a host of improvements compared to its predecessor, and while we've mostly focused on the photographic side of them, there's another side to it: audio. Vivo's Han Boxiao took to Weibo to tease some substantial improvements to the audio capture and audio reproduction of the upcoming global flagship. The first has to do with enhancements to how the phone uses its four available microphones. They'll combine spatial recording with noise reduction and AI smarts to isolate voices and enhance the sound recording. Below is a screenshot Boxiao shared from the...

vivo patents vertically rollable smartphone
Rollable smartphone concepts have come and gone in the past few years, but we've yet to see an actual product using a rollable display (there are, however, rollable-screen laptops already). While the rollable smartphone concepts we've seen thus far have all rolled the screen out of the side, vivo has patented something else entirely - a rollable screen that becomes longer, not wider. The vivo rollable device pictured in the patent application becomes taller as you roll out the screen, which is definitely interesting to see, yet we can't help but wonder what the actual use cases for...

MacBook Neo is surprisingly repairable
The brand-new MacBook Neo is projected to be a hit in terms of sales and could turn out to be one of Apple’s most important laptops in recent memory. While its main claim to fame is the relatively affordable $599 base price ($499 for students), the Neo is also Apple’s most repairable laptop in a long time. YouTuber Phone Repair Guru performed a teardown of the Neo, and the results are fascinating. Apple opted for an easily repairable design with key components like the battery, speakers, trackpad, USB ports and display held in place only with screws and connectors. Virtually...

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra goes through durability testing, see if it bends
Yesterday we saw the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra subjected to a teardown on video, and today the same JerryRigEverything channel is back with its now-traditional 'durability test'. This shows how scratchy the glass is, what happens to the screen if direct fire is applied to it, and, of course, whether a phone bends. [#InlinePriceWidget,14320,1#] So if you're interested in finding out how the Galaxy S26 Ultra fares in all those areas, and some bonus ones, grab something to eat and/or drink, take a seat in a comfortable chair, and hit Play below.

Apple lowers App Store commission fees in China
Apple announced it is lowering the commission fees on the Chinese App Store effective March 15. The fees for standard Apple In-App purchases will drop to 25% from the current 30% figure.

Leaked info on Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 batteries brings disappointing news
With the Galaxy S26 series launch behind its back, Samsung is turning its attention to the next generation of foldables. While work on those proceeds, details on the two battery cells for the Galaxy Z Flip8 have surfaced and they bring bad news for anyone hoping for an upgrade. The two cells, EB-BF776 and EB-BF777, have rated capacities of 1,150mAh and 3,024mAh, respectively. This adds up to 4,174mAh. Last year’s Galaxy Z Flip7 had exactly the same rated capacity, though the split was slightly different – 1,189mAh and 2,985mAh. Galaxy Z Flip7, disassembled (source) Either way, we...

Here's how the Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 will improve its connectivity
Samsung is widely expected to launch the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 this year, to mark its predecessor's two-year anniversary. The most likely scenario is it being unveiled alongside the Galaxy Z Flip8 and Galaxy Z Fold8. The Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 was recently rumored to employ the just-announced Snapdragon Wear Elite SoC, which would differentiate the Ultra further from the Galaxy Watch9 it's supposedly launching with (as that model would keep using the Exynos W1000 also seen in the Galaxy Watch8 and Watch7). Now a new rumor tells us about another upgrade that Samsung has allegedly baked into...

Samsung starts showing a list of satellite-ready apps
According to a tipster over on X, who shared the screenshot you can see below, Samsung phones now have a list of "satellite-ready" apps. This can allegedly be accessed by going to Settings > Connections > Satellite networks. This will then show a list of apps that are "satellite-ready" among those you have installed. So it's not an exhaustive list of every app out there that can use satellite connectivity, just a subset of those you have installed at any given moment. Before you go ahead and celebrate the fact that you can use Google Maps when you only have satellite connectivity,...

Honor Robot Phone's launch timeline tipped, Arri's involvement in video as well
Honor's Robot Phone is still more of a concept device than an actual product, but the company has promised it's going to be launching by the end of this year. It's not a robot, it's a phone with a three-axis gimbal for (we assume) the main camera. There are still no specs of any kind, Honor has only done a few demos here and there with very limited functionality. According to a new rumor out of China, the Robot Phone will be launching in the third quarter of the year, so between July and September. Given the state of the prototypes shown at MWC earlier this month, we'd wager it will be...

The Honor X80 GT is now rumored to break all mainstream battery capacity records
While Apple, Google, and Samsung continue to keep their devices (at most) around the 5,000 mAh mark, Chinese brands are innovating fast based on Silicon Carbon technology. Honor was in fact rewarded for just this at MWC earlier this month, and the brand shows absolutely no signs of stopping. According to a new rumor out of China, the upcoming Honor X80 GT will come with a 13,080 mAh battery. The 'vanilla', non-GT X80 was previously rumored to sport a 10,000 mAh cell instead, going up to that amount from the X70's 8,300 mAh, which was still definitely commendable in itself. Honor Power...

Here's the Phu Quoc island in Vietnam, seen through the lenses of the Xiaomi 17 Ultra

The purpose of the visit was to check out the cameras on the new Xiaomi 17 series phones and put them through their paces in this bustling, vibrant environment. Our weapon of choice for this trip was the flagship Xiaomi 17 Ultra. This phone has a broad array of cameras on the back, including a 50MP main camera, a 50MP ultra-wide camera, and a 200MP telephoto camera with a variable 3.2x to 4.3x optical zoom.
