Samsung Galaxy S26- rumor has it.

Image
 It's still quite early in the Galaxy S26 rumor cycle, so there are plenty of things we don't know about the upcoming lineup. But we have started hearing some murmurs about what to expect, which will only increase as we get closer to 2026. One noteworthy rumor suggests Samsung may revert back to releasing three phones instead of four, as it did with the Galaxy S25 — but which three? Here's what we know about the Samsung Galaxy S26 so fa r. 📅 Launch & Naming Strategy Samsung is rumored to discontinue the base S26 and Plus models, replacing them with a three‑model lineup: Galaxy S26 Pro, S26 Edge, and S26 Ultra, based on firmware codenames M1, M2, and M3 . The Galaxy S26 series is expected to debut in January or February 2026, with a possible December 2025 pre-order push to align with holiday demand. 💰 Pricing Entry-level pricing is speculated to start around $799 / £799, though the shift to premium Pro and Edge models may result in a modest price hike ...

Want to buy iPhone 17 Air? A Leak Sugest Terrible Battery Life

Image
 Apple is expected to announce the iPhone 17 Air this fall, and a new leak claims that it will have an incredibly small battery. If accurate, this means that owners of the unconfirmed device can expect particularly poor battery life from their new iPhone. The report comes via leaker Instant Digital, who posted to their Weibo social network to confirm that the battery will have a capacity smaller than 3,000mAh. As MacRumors points out, the last time we saw an iPhone with such a small battery was when the iPhone 12 and iPhone 13 models launched. This leak also backed up a previous report by The Information that suggested the iPhone 17 Air would have worse battery life than the current iPhones that are on sale. If all of this comes to fruition, it seems most likely that the iPhone 17 Air’s thin design is to blame. It has previously been reported that the new model will be just 5.5mm thick, which means that the battery has to shrink as well. Smaller batteries, obviously, mean wors...

One tap from apple watch makes an order of a Domino's Pizza

Image
To make ordering Pizza an easier experience for you in 2016, Domino’s has updated its Apple Watch app to add an “Easy Order” option to it. True to its name, the option essentially allows you to save your favorite combination of pizza and side dishes so that you can order it with a single tap through your Apple Watch.  You cannot setup your ‘Easy Order’ from the app itself though. You have to use Domino’s website for that, but chances are that if you love their pizzas, you already have a favorite order setup. For now, this functionality is only offered in certain regions of the world, including United States. After ordering the pizza through the app, you can also track the status of your pizza and the time left before it reaches your doorstep. If you live in any other part of the world, you will have to use the old cumbersome way of going through Domino’s website or use their app on your iPhone to place an order. →  Domino’s Pizza Like this post?

Apple watch keeps time 4x more accurate than iPhone, detailed Kevin Lynch, Vice President of Technology of Apple

Image
The Apple Watch is a smartwatch, so that means it can do a lot of things. But one of the elements that Apple is most proud of, and the thing that should count the most for a watch, is how accurate it is in telling you what time it is. Now that the wearable has been on the market for a few months now, and as the clocks inexorably tick closer to a brand new year,  Mashable  took some time to talk to Apple’s Kevin Lynch, who is the Vice President of Technology at the company and has been working on the Apple Watch ever since joining the ranks. In the sit-down, Lynch detailed the power of the Watch’s ability to keep time, and even compared it to the time-keeping abilities of the iPhone. For those who might have forgotten, Apple has marketed the Apple Watch as an incredibly accurate timepiece, going as far as to say that the device “keeps time to within 50 milliseconds of the definitive global time standard.” On a broad scale, that’s good news. But when working i...

Calculator Watch app Turns your Apple Watch into a Casio

Image
One of my favorite watch as a teenager was the calculator watch made by Casio, pretty much like the one in the image above. You can still  get one  for $15. The cool thing is that if you’re feeling nostalgic, then you can now turn your  Apple Watch  into a Casio with a new Calculator Watch app called  Geek Watch . The app brings the Casio Calculator user interface to the Apple Watch. They’ve replaced the “Casio” brand with “Geekio” to avoid getting into trouble, but as you can see it is heavily inspired by the popular calculator watch. As TechCrunch points out, since Apple doesn’t allow third-party Watch faces, you’ll still have some borders and text around the edges, without which it would have been perfect. Geek Watch is available on the App Store for $1 ( iTunes link ).You can also unlock 9 other watch models via in-app purchase. It is just a novelty, as the buttons which worked just fine on the Casio Calculator wa...
