Samsung fully launched the Galaxy Ring this summer, and so we were expecting its successor (if there was to be one) to arrive next summer. That, however, may not be the case, as one tipster now claims. According to this unverified rumor, the Galaxy Ring 2 is coming, and it's going to arrive sooner than initially planned.

Interestingly, the Honor Magic7 Lite could be a rebranded Honor X9c, a phone that was made official yesterday. That's because its model number is identical to that...

Apple is still trying to figure out the best recipe for an affordable Apple Vision Pro and it has given itself plenty of time to do so – the headset has reportedly been delayed beyond 2027. What kind of things is Cupertino considering? TheElec reports that Apple wants to switch to a different kind of display. The current Vision Pro uses OLED on Silicon (OLEDoS) panels from Sony, which have an impressive pixel density of 3,391ppi. That is out of the question for the affordable headset, so Apple has to choose between two different technologies. One is W-OLED+CF. This dense acronym...
