Durability enhancements include Corning Gorilla Glass Victus on the front and an IP48 rating for protection against dust and water. Samsung has begun rolling out the beta version of One UI 8, which is based on Android 16. First showcased during the Google Android Show I/O Edition, the beta is currently available for the Galaxy S25 lineup, with the exception of the newly launched Galaxy S25 Edge (review). The finalized version is scheduled to launch alongside Samsung's foldables this summer. Logitech G, the gaming arm of Logitech, has released the Powerplay 2, a wireless charging pad designed for gaming mice. This accessory delivers uninterrupted power to compatible mice, whether they are actively in use or idle. As per the company, it eliminates the need to stop gaming to recharge. Samsung has started dispatching the Galaxy S25 Edge to customers who placed pre-orders. The brand had promised early access to these buyers ahead of the official release. Pre-orders are open until May 30 and include perks like complimentary storage upgrades and interest-free EMI options. Opera has introduced a new browser named Neon, designed to enhance user experience through built-in AI tools. Unlike conventional browsers, Neon integrates AI to support more advanced digital tasks such as web and game development, form completion, and online shopping. The browser will be subscription-based, although pricing details are yet to be announced.

Apple is said to be working on a new functionality in iOS 19 aimed at simplifying the switch from iPhone to Android by enabling wireless eSIM transfers. A report by Android Authority suggests that the new 'Transfer to Android' option will be added to the Settings app, allowing eSIMs to be moved to Android phones wirelessly. Google plans to phase out the remaining Duo calling features from its Meet app by September 2025. Although Duo was discontinued in 2022, some legacy functions continued under the "Legacy calls" section in Google Meet. The upcoming changes aim to consolidate all calling features within the Meet platform. OpenAI may soon challenge Google's dominance in third-party logins by enabling users to access external apps via their ChatGPT credentials. Much like Google's long-standing sign-in option, OpenAI is exploring similar integration. A page on OpenAI's site indicates that developers can express interest by filling out a form. Anthropic is introducing a voice interaction mode for its Claude AI assistant. This feature, available through the mobile app, allows for spoken conversation and hands-free use. The company states that this will offer a more natural and accessible user experience. The beta version will initially be rolled out in English in the coming weeks. At a price of Rs 99,999, Motorola's Razr 60 Ultra offers significant improvements over its predecessor. Enhancements include better performance, a more advanced front camera, improved dust resistance, and new design elements such as wood and Alcantara finishes. Core strengths from the Razr 50 Ultra remain, including the large functional cover display, streamlined software, and polished foldable design.=
