Reports from IGN and The Verge indicate that the event could include previews of titles such as Death Stranding 2: On the Beach, Ghost of Yotei, and others. Google is reportedly experimenting with a new AI-powered feature in Search that generates summaries of local weather.

The feature is currently in a limited testing phase for select users. The 2025 Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), starting June 9, is expected to concentrate on ecosystem-wide platform enhancements.

Additionally, a redesigned CarPlay interface could be unveiled. Chinese smartphone maker Vivo is preparing to debut its T4 Ultra model on June 11.

Reddit is introducing a new update designed to improve profile customisation. The update grants Redditors—the platform's registered users—the ability to decide which posts are visible on their profiles and which remain hidden. Previously, any interaction within a community, including 'Not Safe For Work' (NSFW) posts, would automatically appear on a user's profile. With this change, Reddit is offering users more control through selective content visibility tools. YouTube has ended support for several legacy iPhone and iPad models. A report from 9to5Mac states that the video platform has updated the minimum system requirements for its apps on iOS and iPadOS.

Samsung is gearing up to release its latest foldable phones—the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7—later this year. Before the formal debut, the company has issued a teaser that alludes to a third potential model, referred to as the 'Galaxy Z Fold 7 Ultra.' Telecom provider Vi has teamed up with Vivo to launch an exclusive bundled plan for the Vivo V50e 5G smartphone.

The awards recognize 12 apps and games for excellence in design and innovation. India's exceptional capabilities in data and big data place the country at a pivotal juncture, with the potential to spearhead the next wave of global tech innovation, according to Claude Smadja, former Managing Director of the World Economic Forum (WEF). In May, Google unveiled SynthID Detector, a new tool designed to identify AI-generated content. According to Google, the detector can recognize synthetic content across various formats—text, images, video, and audio. However, it has some limitations. Most notably, the tool is currently accessible only to 'early testers' via a waitlist, and its detection capabilities are primarily effective with content created using Google's own AI services like Gemini, Veo, Imagen, or Lyria. 'This video is not available in your location.' It's a message many users encounter when trying to access international content online. This restriction prompts a larger question—how can we cross digital borders safely and ethically? As digital access becomes more essential, so does the desire for unrestricted content. You might be eager to watch new shows before their regional release, follow live international sports, or securely log into your workplace network from abroad. Imagine a lightweight, flexible wearable that adheres to your skin like a temporary tattoo and tracks mental exertion in real-time. That's exactly what researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have developed—a wireless, ultra-thin 'electronic tattoo' capable of monitoring brain activity and eye movements, offering insights into cognitive workload.
