Regular smartphones continue to outsell foldable devices by a large margin, which explains why Apple has avoided making one for years. OnePlus recently made a tough decision to pause the development of the OnePlus Open 2 after evaluating market conditions. The company isn't leaving the foldable market forever but needs time to reconsider its strategy.
Vale G explained on the OnePlus forum that the company aims to set new benchmarks across all product categories. Despite surprising some fans, they decided against releasing a foldable phone this year. Their parent company, OPPO, will lead foldable development with the Find N5 model, while OnePlus focuses on other innovative products aligned with its "Never Settle" philosophy.

Palantir shares are climbing after the company secured a deal with NATO. The AI software firm helps organizations analyze large amounts of raw data. Between 2022 and 2024, Palantir grew revenue 50 percent but increased staff just 3 percent. The company expects 31 percent revenue growth next year with 45 percent operating margins.
The tech firm recently formed ten commercial partnerships, including one with competitor Databricks. Analyst Louie DiPalma kept his Market Perform rating on Palantir stock but noted positively that NATO finalized an agreement on March 25 to use Palantir's Maven Smart System. This AI-enabled military platform could benefit the entire US defense industry as European allies increase defense spending.

A well-known leaker says the rumored portable PlayStation 6 will pack less power than the current PS5. The portable device will run on a 15W SoC built with 3nm technology, according to AMD leaker Kepler L2. Gamers wonder how this handheld might handle PS5 games with lower specs.
Details about the main PlayStation 6 remain scarce. Kepler L2 mentioned the system-on-chip design is complete and has entered the pre-silicon testing phase. The console might launch around 2027, based on typical development timelines between chip testing and release.
One confirmed fact is that AMD will continue making PlayStation chips. Intel tried to win the contract but failed because of internal disputes about profit margins. The company struggled to agree...
Bungie recently showed off its team-based extraction shooter Marathon, revealing gameplay footage but leaving fans wondering about the price. The company confirmed to GameSpot that Marathon will be a "premium" release but not a "full-priced title." This supports earlier rumors that the game might cost around $40, similar to Concord.
Sony might consider pricing Marathon below $40 after watching Concord fail last year. The games differ significantly—Bungie has a strong reputation among gamers, Marathon revives an existing franchise with established fans, and Concord lacks both advantages. Many loyal Bungie supporters will likely purchase Marathon regardless simply because they trust the studio behind it.
Despite these advantages, price...
Apple plans to join the foldable phone market soon with its iPhone Fold. A Chinese leaker says the device will have a 7.76-inch inner screen with 2,713 x 1,920 resolution and an under-screen camera. The outer display will measure 5.49 inches with 2,088 x 1,422 resolution and feature a punch-hole camera instead.
The inner display should have a 4:3 aspect ratio without any creases, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. Apple might put the Dynamic Island on the outer screen for faster user authentication. The company could also replace Face ID with Touch ID, possibly in the power button, similar to iPad Air models.
Reports indicate Apple is developing an 18.8-inch foldable iPad with in-display Face ID sensors as well. This larger device...
AMD plans to launch the Radeon RX 9060 XT graphics card with NAVI 44 technology. The card comes in 8GB or 16GB versions using 20 Gbps GDDR6 memory. It features 32 compute units with 2048 stream processors for gaming tasks. A 128-bit memory bus handles high-resolution applications smoothly. Game speeds reach 2620MHz, with boost speeds hitting 3230MHz.
The new card offers better performance than the RX 9070 series. Overclocked models push speeds to 3.3GHz for extra power. Users need at least 500W of power for the standard model, and some versions require 550W or more to run properly. The card connects through PCIe 8-pin power plugs for stable operation. Three video ports let gamers connect multiple screens.
AMD will reveal the Radeon RX...
Overclocker Seby broke the world record for DDR5 memory speed using G.SKILL hardware. He pushed speeds to DDR5-12772 MHz with Trident Z5 memory featuring SK hynix DDR5 chips. The setup included an ASUS ROG Maximus Z890 Apex motherboard paired with an Intel Core Ultra 9 285K processor. Extreme cooling through liquid nitrogen helped reach these speeds. This achievement proves what G.SKILL memory can do with high-end components.
The record attempt used just one module from the F5-8000J3848F24GX2-TZ5K kit. HWBOT and CPU-Z confirmed the record after submission. The extreme overclocking demonstrates system stability even at these incredible frequencies. G.SKILL continues its reputation for making performance-focused products with this...
