NVIDIA celebrates Cyberpunk 2077’s fifth anniversary with an ultra-rare giveaway

Cyberpunk 2077 just hit its five-year anniversary — hard to believe, considering how rocky its launch was and how far it’s come since. Despite everything, it’s still one of the most visually striking games on PC, thanks in no small part to NVIDIA’s early push for ray tracing. To mark the milestone, NVIDIA is dusting off something fans probably thought would never see daylight again: an original GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Cyberpunk 2077 Edition, and yes, it’s signed by Jensen Huang himself.

These cards were already rare when they were new. NVIDIA only made 200 of them back in 2020, and none ever hit retail shelves. Seventy-seven were given away during the original Cyberpunk promotion, and the rest essentially vanished into storage. Now, NVIDIA is offering up two more units — and at least one reportedly carries Jensen’s signature, which pretty much turns it into a collector’s grail piece rather than a GPU anyone would actually install.

The card itself is impossible to mistake: a custom AL5052 aluminum shroud in that unmistakable yellow-and-black Cyberpunk scheme, turquoise accents, and a matching backplate. Under all that flair, though, it’s still a standard RTX 2080 Ti Founders Edition. It launched with support for the game’s original ray-traced effects and DLSS 2.0, but modern features like RT Overdrive, DLSS 3.5 Ray Reconstruction, and DLSS 4 are out of reach for Turing. Not that it matters — whoever wins one of these isn’t going to be gaming on it. This is the kind of hardware you put behind glass.

If you don’t win but really want the look, there are third-party reproduction shroud kits floating around on eBay for people who happen to own a regular RTX 2080 Ti FE PCB. It’s not quite the same, but it’s a way to get close.

As for entering the giveaway, it’s straightforward: just head to NVIDIA’s X post embedded above and comment “GeForce Season.”

That’s it. Two winners will be picked, and they’ll walk away with one of the rarest pieces of GeForce history ever made — a signed relic from the Turing era and a neat little slice of Cyberpunk memorabilia.

World’s first fully AI-created game hits Steam with a free demo

Most studios either quietly use generative AI or avoid the topic altogether, but one small team has decided to do the exact opposite. The developers behind Codex Mortis say their new bullet hell game was built entirely with AI — no human-drawn art, no hand-written code, no traditional music production. And now there’s a free Steam demo so anyone can check it out.

According to the Steam listing, “all code is AI vibe codes, also arts, sounds, music, texts.” It’s a rare case where a developer is not only open about using AI but is essentially making it the whole pitch. Even the character faces shown in the trailer appear to be AI-modified selfies of the team members, dropped onto undead wizard bodies.

The gameplay is pretty familiar, but with necromancy. The full game is supposed to support solo and co-op play. The early impressions are mixed but curious. The graphics in the actual build look a bit rough compared to the slicker YouTube trailer, and some players say the UI feels clumsy on a controller. But the basic loop — combining spells, surviving the onslaught, raising minions — works well enough to show that a fully machine-generated game can at least run and be played.

Whether it’s fun is another matter entirely. The studio seems to know this and is leaning harder into the 100% AI-made angle than anything else, hoping the transparency will draw interest instead of backlash. Some players are treating it like an experimental art project; others see it as another example of AI creeping into game development in ways that replace human artists.

Codex Mortis isn’t shying away from the debate. With a planned low price for the final release, the team is banking on curiosity and affordability winning people over.

If nothing else, the free demo gives everyone a chance to decide for themselves whether a game built wholly from AI tools can still have personality — or if it ends up feeling exactly like you’d expect from something made entirely by algorithms.

Anker’s new Prime Charging Base (150W) is now on sale in the US

Anker has launched its new Prime Charging Base in the US, giving users of the company’s latest high-capacity power banks a much faster way to top them up. The accessory has been available in the UK for a while, but this is the first time it’s officially showing up stateside.

The base is mainly meant for Anker’s newer Prime power banks — the 26K 300W and the 20K 220W models — which sit on top of the dock using pogo pins. When connected, the base can push up to 150W thanks to Anker’s own fast-charging protocol, letting you refill the big 26K model in under an hour. It’s basically a drop-and-charge setup aimed at people who are tired of juggling cables.

You also get three regular ports on the back: two USB-C (140W and 100W) and one USB-A (22.5W). The whole thing tops out at 150W combined, and Anker says it automatically divides power depending on what you plug in. If you pair it with the Anker app over Bluetooth, you can check charging stats, tweak settings, and get OTA firmware updates — a bit overkill for a charger, but helpful if you’re deep into the ecosystem.

The base itself is fairly compact at 4.1 × 4.1 × 0.9 inches and weighs around 350 grams, so it’s small enough to live on a desk without getting in the way. Like most of Anker’s recent gear, it also includes its ActiveShield 4.0 temperature monitoring, which constantly checks for overheating.

Pricing:

Anker is selling the Prime Charging Base in the US for $99.99 through its website and Amazon.

Huawei’s Gorgeous New Router with a Snowcapped Mountain Hits the Global Market

Huawei Router X3 Pro

It has a cylindrical body with a transparent upper section that houses a structure that is built to resemble a mountain. This features a subtle glow effect that gives the illusion of a the sunlight hitting a snowcapped mountain. So it looks and feels like a modern piece of decor rather than a router at home.

Huawei built this unique gadget with AI functions to boost performance and offer a reliable connection. You even get a range extender with the WiFi Mesh Router X3 Pro, which helps improve the connectivity overall. This range extender works wirelessly and doesn’t need a dedicated cable either. Users can configure this router via the Huawei AI Life app. It is releasing globally today and will be available in regions like Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Asia-Pacific, and Africa for 169 Euros. Meanwhile, the range extender is sold separately for 99 Euros.

OnePlus 15 Receives December 2025 OxygenOS Update with Neon Camera Filter and System Fixes

OnePlus has started rolling out the OxygenOS 16.0.2.401 update for the OnePlus 15 in India and Europe. The update is being released in batches, with wider availability expected in the next few days. The build numbers are CPH2745_16.0.2.401(EX01) for India and CPH2747_16.0.2.401(EX01) for Europe.

OnePlus 15

The update brings improvements across AI features, the camera, system performance, and charging. The AI summary and subtitle feature now ends automatically when there is no sound input for a certain period. This aims to make speech-related tools more accurate and easier to use.

The update also adds more control over app icons. After resizing an app icon and adding commonly used shortcut icons, users can now drag and drop these shortcut icons to rearrange them. App clone icons can also be dragged to resize and customized with shortcuts.

In the Camera app, a new Neon filter is now available. It is designed to recreate the CineStill 800T film effect and improve atmospheric night portrait shots. In the Photos app, new filter options have been added, including Motion Photo, Screenshots and screen recordings, and Edited items. The Photos app also loads thumbnails faster due to an improved parsing method.

The update fixes an issue where a car display could disconnect when the phone switches data networks. It also integrates the December 2025 Android security patch to improve system security. Since this OTA is incremental, only a small percentage of users will receive it today. A broader rollout will follow. Update content may vary by region.

Xiaomi Starts New Beta Program for Xiaomi AI Glasses With Voice Parking Payments & System Upgrades

Xiaomi has opened registrations for a new beta version of its Xiaomi AI Glasses, announcing the launch of its “Pioneer Experience Program” on December 11. The company will recruit 200 users to test upcoming features and firmware changes before the public release.

Vivo Switch Off Report 2025 explores digital behavior and changing family dynamics

The Vivo Switch Off Report 2025 has been released, offering a deeper look at how smartphones are influencing the daily interactions between parents and children in India. While digital tools support modern life, the findings show shifting behavioural patterns that are shaping communication, connection and family routines. The report sets the stage for understanding how families are navigating technology and what they hope to improve.

Vivo Switch Off Report 2025: Key findings on attention, dinner time and rising AI dependence

This year’s Switch Off Report highlights dinner time as the most dependable opportunity for families to connect, with many children saying conversations improve when phones are put away. A significant portion of parents and children acknowledge that habitual phone checking during shared activities weakens dialogues and reduces emotional presence. The study also notes a steady willingness among families to adopt small adjustments such as reducing notifications or choosing offline moments to feel more attentive and present.

Another major shift identified in the survey is the growing reliance on AI among children. With parents perceived as increasingly busy, many children turn to AI tools for learning, creative tasks and at times even companionship. This behavioural shift has led some children to speak less with their parents, raising questions about how families can balance digital support with meaningful human interaction.

The study shows that children and parents relate to smartphones differently, with children using their devices mainly for entertainment while parents are more prone to micro checking throughout the day. These interruptions often disrupt the flow of conversations, affecting how children perceive their parents’ availability.

Despite these challenges, the findings reveal a shared aspiration among families to reduce interruptions and create predictable phone free spaces that encourage warmth, openness and deeper engagement. The Switch Off initiative continues to emphasise the value of stepping away from screens to reconnect with what truly matters.

Xiaomi 17 Ultra sparks excitement as blind pre-orders begin

Xiaomi’s next big camera-focused flagship seems to be getting closer, and offline stores are already stirring up interest. Several Xiaomi retail locations have reportedly started taking blind pre-orders, hinting that the Xiaomi 17 Ultra may arrive earlier than expected.

Xiaomi Home store staffs pushed out messages about a 100 RMB “refundable pre-order” for an upcoming annual imaging flagship. Given Xiaomi’s usual release cycle — and earlier leaks — it’s almost certainly the Xiaomi 17 Ultra.

The phone is expected to run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and ship with HyperOS 3.0. The global version will also support satellite connectivity, which keeps users connected in remote areas.

Leaker @SmartPikachu recently claimed that a major imaging flagship from “a certain manufacturer” would show up before New Year’s Day, somewhere between December 15 and 25. That lines up almost perfectly with Xiaomi’s new blind pre-order push.

There’s also movement on the accessory side. A new Xiaomi device with the model number 25125PS17S passed China’s 3C certification on November 19. According to @DigitalChatStation, this product is a new professional photography handle — one that also doubles as a power bank. It’s reportedly an exclusive accessory for the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, and the first to be certified alongside the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5.

The 100 RMB deposit is refundable, a tactic phone makers often use to measure hype before a major launch. And with the 17 Ultra expected to lean even harder into photography, imaging fans seems to have plenty to look forward to.

Satellite support on the international model adds another layer of appeal for travelers and outdoor users. Combine that with the latest Snapdragon flagship and the 17 Ultra looks like a strong year-end flagship.

Vivo X200T’s India launch timeframe leaks

Vivo may have already pushed the X300 series into global markets, but it looks like the company still has one more device lined up from its previous generation. 

A phone called the Vivo X200T was first spotted in an IMEI listing back in November. It has surfaced again through a new leak, revealing its possible launch timeframe for the Indian market.

A report from SmartPrix suggests that the X200T is expected to launch in India toward the end of January 2026. 

Vivo X200 FE

The publication refers to the phone as a “mix of the X200 and the X200 FE.” Instead of being a direct successor or a budget variant, the X200T might be between the best of the previous two flagships.

Right now, the leak doesn’t tell us much about actual specifications. There are no details on the display, processor, cameras, or battery. But the report suggests that Vivo might reuse the compact design of the X200 FE while pulling in most of the core hardware from the standard X200. Until more concrete information appears, it’s probably best to treat all of this as early speculation.

There’s more coming

Apart from this, Vivo is currently working on X300 Ultra as its most spec-ed phone for 2026. Unlike the Dimensity 9500 chip powering the X300 and X300 Pro, the Ultra model is rumored to carry Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor. 

Its camera hardware could include a 200-megapixel Sony LYT-901 main sensor, a 50-megapixel ultra-wide lens, and a 200-megapixel Samsung HPB periscope telephoto camera.

Another device, the Vivo X300s, is reportedly an upgraded take on the standard X300, likely featuring the upcoming Dimensity 9500 Plus chipset.

For now, the X200T remains the most mysterious of the bunch. But with the launch window approaching, we’ll probably see more leaks fill in the gaps soon.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra’s 60W power adapter quietly appears online

A new Samsung 60W power brick has surfaced quietly on the company’s official website, opening the door to speculation about what this unexpected listing could mean for future Galaxy flagships. While the South Korean tech giant has not made any official announcement about the device, the product page of the new charger mentions all its key specifications and features. This power brick may power up the upcoming Galaxy S26 Ultra at 60W speed.

Why this new charger hints at the Galaxy S26 Ultra

Last month, Android Authority highlighted evidence from early One UI 8.5 that referenced new charging levels beyond Samsung’s existing Super Fast Charging and Super Fast Charging 2.0 profiles. These have traditionally corresponded to 25W and 45W limits on current Galaxy models.

The presence of a new fast charging tier in the leaked code implies a higher charging class is in the works, and this aligns closely with Samsung’s fresh 60W power adapter listing. The combination of both developments has fuelled speculation that this accessory could be intended for the Galaxy S26 Ultra, potentially marking Samsung’s first step into faster wired charging since the S20 Ultra.

Samsung 60W power adaptor specifications

The EP-T6010NBEGWW charger supports up to 60W through PD 3.1, with both PDO and PPS modes available for compatible devices. Samsung highlights low standby consumption, with figures below 5 mW, and the adapter includes protection against overheating, overcurrent and short circuits.

It is also positioned as a universal Type-C charger suited for smartphones, tablets, wearables and even Galaxy Books. The listing confirms Super Fast Charging 2.0 compatibility with newer Galaxy devices, although the higher wattage further strengthens speculation that this charger is part of Samsung’s next-generation charging solution.
