Nvidia announced last month that it’s planning to upgrade its GeForce Now cloud gaming service to RTX 5080 GPUs. Now, we have a date for that upgrade: September 10th. The upgrade will allow GeForce Now subscribers to rent what’s effectively an RTX 5080 in the cloud, with a huge 48GB of memory and DLSS 4 support.
Nvidia’s RTX 5080 upgrade for GeForce Now will include support for 5K...

TCL is not a brand that typically elicits desire from me, yet here I am, looking at its IFA 2025 announcement of the PlayCube, wondering how a projector that pays homage to both a Rubik’s cube and TARS can fit into my life. The all-in-one Google TV projector with up to three hours of battery life — introduced as a concept in...
These could be the rough shapes of the Galaxy S26, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra.
At least one phone in Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy S26 range may look a little different to what we were expecting, and a lot more like Apple’s iPhone 17 series. That’s going by a photo of dummy phones shared by leaker and journalist Sonny Dickson, who has a pretty good track record for sourcing accurate Apple and...
After years of unofficial copies of Microsoft’s 6502 BASIC floating around on the internet, the software giant has released the code under an open-source license. 6502 BASIC was one of Microsoft’s first pieces of software, adapted in 1976 by Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates and early employee Ric Weiland to run on the 6502 CPU that powered the Apple II, Atari 2600, Nintendo Entertainment...
IFA, the European tech trade show equivalent to CES in the US, is just around the corner. Companies are gearing up to showcase their latest innovations, bringing us the latest product announcements, feature demonstrations, and design concepts that will shape future consumer tech releases.
IFA will open its doors between September 5th and 9th, but many of the biggest announcements will...
Huawei has announced the Mate XTs, its second-generation trifold phone, which is available to order now in China. It’s only a minor upgrade on the first edition, but comes with new colors, stylus support, and a slightly lower price tag.
The biggest addition is the ability to use a stylus on the folding screen, though otherwise the 10.2-inch display — which folds down to 7.9-inch and 6.4-...
Roborock is launching an updated Qrevo Curv robot vacuum that offers an impressive 25,000 Pa of suction power — topping the 18,500 Pa available with last year’s model. That’s not all that’s new with the Qrevo Curv 2 Pro, either, as the newly announced robovac comes with a dual-spinning mop system that automatically detaches before passing over carpets, helping to keep them dry.
And, at...
Roborock, a company best known for its robovacs, is entering a new product category: robot lawnmowers. During the IFA 2025 tech conference, Roborock took the wraps off a trio of robot mowers, with its premium RockMow Z1 featuring an all-wheel drive system to handle steep slopes of up to 80 percent, or around 38.66 degrees.
In addition to sporting independent hub motors on each wheel, the...
If you've been eagerly awaiting Samsung's long-teased trifold phone or Project Moohan XR headset, the company's IFA launches may feel a little prosaic: an affordable spinoff of its flagship phone line, and a pair of Android tablets. The Galaxy S25 FE and Tab S11 series may not be Samsung's most exciting launches of the year, but they're the bread-and-butter basics that will drive its sales...
Take your pick from four color options.
I’ve never been quite sure what to call the category Samsung’s Galaxy FE belongs to. Upper midrange? Midrange plus? Low flagship? Whatever we’re calling it, Samsung is bringing the concept back again this year in the Galaxy S25 FE, which continues to stand for Fan Edition. It’s still $650 like the S24 FE before it and still comes with a 6.7-inch...
