Amazon couldn't ignore the rise of Temu and Shein anymore, and so today it's launching its competitor to both. It's called Haul (what an apt name!) and all items in Haul cost under $20, with the majority being $10 and under. Shipping takes one to two weeks and is free for orders over $25, otherwise it's $3.99. Returns are free within 15 days for items over $3, and if you buy over $50 you get 5% off, with 10% off orders over $75. Here's the catch: Haul is currently only available in the US. And an additional, slightly less catchy catch - it's a mobile-only affair. You either use the...
With a rumored launch in January, the Samsung Galaxy S25 series is potentially just two months away, and the leaks and rumors keep on coming.

WhatsApp is now testing a clearer way to let you know what happens when you mute group chats. This has been spotted by a few people in the latest beta update for Android. As you can see from the screenshot below, the new feature lets you choose between receiving notifications for all group messages or only for "Highlights", which include @mentions, replies, and "other relevant messages". This is obviously meant to make large and very active group chats more manageable for people. The interesting thing is that "Highlights" are what you'll get even today in the non-beta app when you...

Qualcomm’s Q4 report from last week showed that the company raked in $1.7 billion in revenues from its Internet of Things (IoT) products. That’s double what it is currently making from automotive. So, you probably won’t hear much about these chips, but there is a good chance that you will encounter them in one form or another. The QCC74xM is Qualcomm’s first programmable connectivity module based on RISC-V. This is an instruction set that offers an alternative to ARM, which might come in handy, given the recent ARM vs. Qualcomm spat. This module has advanced connectivity features with...
