Apple today officially unveiled the second-generation Apple AirPods Max 2. The new over-the-ear headphone brings upgrades to active noise cancellation, sound quality, and several new smart features powered by the company’s H2 chip.
At first glance, the new model looks quite familiar. Its design remains largely unchanged from the original AirPods Max, but most of its improvements are inside.
Apple AirPods Max 2 Specifications
It now runs an H2 chip, enabling features like adaptive audio, conversation awareness, and voice highlighting. We have seen these features in newer AirPods, and they are now making their way to the company’s flagship headphones, too.
According to Apple, active noise cancellation on AirPods Max 2 is now 1.5 times more effective than the previous generation. The company says the improvement comes from a combination of the H2 chip and updated computational audio algorithms.
Transparency mode is also getting an update. Apple says the system uses new digital signal processing tuned for the H2 chip and the headphone’s microphone array, which should make outside sounds feel more natural when users want to stay aware of their surroundings.
AirPods Max 2 also introduces a new high dynamic range amplifier designed to produce clearer audio while maintaining the sound profile the original model is known for. The spatial audio now gives more accurate instrument placement and improved balance across lows, mids, and highs.
A few extras
The headphones support 24-bit, 48 kHz lossless audio when connected with the included USB-C cable. Apple says creators can use the headphones in professional workflows inside apps like Logic Pro, including music production and track mixing with head-tracking spatial audio.
The AirPods Max 2 has a Game Mode that the company claims can deliver a more responsive audio experience while gaming.
AirPods Max 2 also introduces a few less typical features for headphones. Users can remotely control a camera by pressing the digital crown while the Camera app is open on an iPhone or iPad. Apple is also adding studio-quality audio recording, which the company says could be useful for interviews, podcasts, or vocal recordings.
Other additions include personalized volume that adjusts listening levels over time based on user preferences, as well as a new Siri interaction method that allows users to nod or shake their head to respond to notifications from Siri.
On the environmental side, Apple says the headphones include several recycled materials. Magnets are made with 100 percent recycled rare earth elements, ear pads use fully recycled polyester, and Apple-designed circuit boards include recycled gold plating and solder. Packaging is also entirely fiber-based.
Price and Availability

In a smartphone market where screens just keep getting bigger, genuinely compact phones have become surprisingly rare. That’s what makes the upcoming FOSSiBOT F116 Pro a bit unusual. The rugged device takes a different route, combining a very small footprint with durability features and some action-camera style tricks aimed at outdoor users.
The phone’s most striking feature is its 4-inch display (some listings mention about 4.05 inches), which immediately sets it apart from the typical 6-plus-inch smartphones dominating store shelves. The device measures roughly 114.5 × 59.6 × 23 mm and weighs around 207 grams, so it’s thick for its size, though that extra bulk comes from the rugged build. The screen itself carries a 540 × 1168 resolution with a pixel density of around 322 PPI, which should look reasonably sharp at this scale.
Under the hood, the F116 Pro is said to run on MediaTek’s Dimensity 7300 chip (or the 7300-Ultra variant in some reports), paired with 12 GB of RAM and up to 256 GB of storage. Some spec sheets also mention microSD expansion up to 1 TB.
Cameras are another focus here. The phone includes a 50 MP main sensor, but the more unusual addition is a 48 MP ultra-wide camera with a 152.6-degree field of view. FOSSiBOT appears to be positioning it partly as an action-camera alternative, complete with a dedicated camera button and a built-in ¼-inch mount for attaching the phone to tripods, helmets, or bike mounts. A 32 MP front camera handles selfies and video calls.
Given its rugged positioning, the device carries IP68 and IP69K ratings along with MIL-STD-810H certification for drops up to about 1.5 meters. Other features include a 3,700 mAh battery, 33W charging, 10W reverse charging, Wi-Fi 6, Bluetooth 5.4, and a side-mounted fingerprint scanner.
The FOSSiBOT F116 Pro is scheduled to launch on Kickstarter on March 17, 2026, with a retail price of $499. Early backers can get it for $339, while the first 1,000 supporters may grab a $279 super-early-bird deal. Shipments are expected to begin around April 25.
A troubling report involving an Apple Watch has surfaced online, raising fresh concerns about the safety of wearable devices. A user claims their smartwatch suddenly overheated while on their wrist, causing a painful burn that later developed into a permanent scar shaped like the back of the watch. The person also alleges that Apple’s support process has dragged on for months without a clear resolution.
According to the user, the episode happened on September 24, 2025, while they were working at their laptop in the afternoon. They suddenly felt what they described as an intense surge of heat exactly where the watch was touching their skin.
The user says they quickly removed the device, but by then the skin had already been burned. Photos shared with the post show a distinct mark matching the shape of the Apple Watch’s rear sensor area, along with blisters and redness. Months later, the mark is reportedly still visible, leaving what the user says is a permanent scar.
The individual contacted Apple support the same day and shared images of both the injury and the device. According to their account, initial responses from support suggested the possibility of a skin reaction rather than a heat-related issue. The user, however, insists the sensation was clearly extreme heat.
Apple support later advised sending the watch to one of the company’s facilities in Ireland for further analysis, possibly to check for a battery-related fault. Apple reportedly agreed to arrange a device pickup, but the user claims that collection never happened. Attempts to escalate the issue also appear to have run into problems, including a scheduled Genius Bar appointment that the local Apple Store allegedly had no record of.
As of now, Apple has not publicly commented on the claim. Incidents of smartwatches causing burns are rare, and in many cases reported skin reactions have been linked to allergies, moisture buildup, or prolonged contact with metal components. Still, the user’s description of sudden heat and blistering has drawn attention online.
BMW begins testing humanoid robots at its Leipzig iFACTORY plant to assist in electric vehicle production.
AEON robot from Hexagon Robotics helps with battery assembly, screw tightening, and other repetitive factory tasks.
AI-powered sensors and self-swapping batteries allow the robot to work continuously with minimal downtime.
BMW has begun testing humanoid robots at its iFACTORY plant in Leipzig, Germany, marking an important step toward AI-driven manufacturing. The initiative is part of the company’s plan to integrate advanced robotics and artificial intelligence into vehicle production, particularly in the assembly of electric vehicles. One of the robots currently being tested is called AEON, a humanoid machine developed by Zurich-based Hexagon Robotics.
AEON stands around 1.65 meters tall and weighs about 60 kilograms. Instead of traditional legs, the robot moves using wheels, which allows it to travel quickly and efficiently across the factory floor. BMW is using the robot to assist with tasks such as battery assembly, tightening screws, and handling parts used in high-voltage EV batteries. These are repetitive or physically demanding jobs where robotic assistance can help improve efficiency.
The robot is equipped with 22 sensors, including cameras and microphones, enabling it to analyze its surroundings and avoid obstacles. It also runs on NVIDIA Jetson Orin computing hardware, which processes data and powers its AI-based motion system. BMW describes this approach as “Physical AI,” combining digital intelligence with machines that can interact with the real world.
The project follows a 10-month pilot test in BMW’s Spartanburg factory in the United States, where robots handled more than 90,000 parts and helped produce around 30,000 vehicles.
BMW plans to continue testing the technology, with more trials scheduled soon and a larger pilot program expected to begin later this summer.
Did You Know?
Humanoid robots could soon become common in factories. Companies like Tesla, Mercedes-Benz, and Hyundai are already testing human-shaped robots for assembly-line tasks. Tesla’s Optimus robot, for example, is being developed to handle repetitive factory work and could eventually cost less than a car, making large-scale robotic workers a real possibility in manufacturing plants.
Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy A37 and Galaxy A57 appear to have leaked ahead of their official debut, with short unboxing and hands-on clips making the rounds on TikTok. The videos were shared by tipster @VerdeSelvans on X, offering what looks like an early real-world glimpse at Samsung’s next mid-range phones.
Galaxy A37 hands-on
Samsung hasn’t formally announced either device yet, but the clips show retail units being handled, reportedly inside a store in Thailand. One small detail that stands out is the packaging. Unlike the minimal boxes used for Galaxy S flagships, these boxes clearly display the model names on the front, which fits the more straightforward branding Samsung usually uses for its mid-range lineup.
Color options for the Galaxy A37 mentioned in leaks include Greygreen, Charcoal, Lavender, and White. The phone carries a familiar Samsung look, with a clean rear panel and a vertical triple-camera setup. The bezels are still noticeable. Samsung’s Key Island button design is also present, where the power and volume buttons sit slightly raised on the right edge.
The Galaxy A57, meanwhile, appears in purple in the leaked clips, while other rumored color options include Gray, Icy Blue, Lilac, and Navy. The device seems to feature slimmer bezels than the A37 and slightly smoother edges, which gives it a more polished feel overall. Both phones appear to run an early version of Samsung’s software, likely One UI based on Android.
The leak also reveals the official MRP of the Galaxy A57 in Thailand: 17,999 THB ($555 / ₹51,182) for the 12GB + 256GB variant and 20,999 THB ($645 / ₹59,685) for the 12GB + 512GB model. That’s roughly 2,000 THB higher than the price of the Galaxy A56 (12GB + 256GB) at launch.

Lenovo may be getting ready to return to the gaming phone space after several quiet years. A recently spotted device carrying the Legion name has started circulating online, hinting that the company could be preparing a comeback for the long-dormant lineup.
Lenovo Legion Phone Duel 2
The last Legion-branded smartphone was the Legion Y70, released back in August 2022. At the time, it packed Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8+ Gen 1, a 6.67-inch OLED panel with a 144Hz refresh rate, and a cooling setup designed to keep performance stable during long gaming sessions. It was a fairly capable device, though the series didn’t continue afterward. Lenovo gradually stepped away from gaming phones, at least publicly.
That’s why a recent sighting has caught some attention. At what appears to have been a Lenovo event in China, a company representative was photographed holding an unreleased Legion-branded smartphone. The images were later shared on Weibo, and while they don’t reveal everything, they offer a clear look at the back of the device.
The rear design shows a rectangular camera island placed in the upper-left corner, containing a triple-camera setup along with an LED flash. Beneath the camera module sits fairly prominent Lenovo Legion branding.
Interestingly, the design seems a bit more restrained than older Legion models. Previous devices in the series leaned heavily into gaming aesthetics. This one appears more conventional, suggesting Lenovo may be aiming for something that balances gaming performance with everyday usability.
If Lenovo plans to compete in the current gaming phone market, the device will likely target the same performance segment occupied by models like the RedMagic 11 Pro or the iQOO 15.
That would probably mean a flagship chipset, paired with a high-refresh-rate AMOLED display, likely 144Hz or higher. A large battery and fast charging would also be expected, along with some form of advanced cooling, such as a large vapor chamber or even active fan cooling.
For now, Lenovo hasn’t officially confirmed the device. Still, the fact that it appeared at a company event suggests development may already be fairly far along. If that’s the case, an official reveal might not be too far away—possibly sometime in the coming months.
OnePlus is expected to unveil the OnePlus Nord 6 by early April in India. However, it appears that may not be the only Nord-branded phone heading to the country. A new device believed to be part of the Nord 6 lineup has now surfaced in the database of India’s BIS certification platform.
Alleged OnePlus Nord 6 series phone BIS certified
Alleged OnePlus Nord 6 series phone BIS certified
A screenshot reveals that an upcoming OnePlus phone with the model number CPH2805 has received approval from India’s BIS authority. The listing does not mention the final name of the device or any of its key specifications.
Back in December 2025, live images of a OnePlus phone carrying the model number CPH2805 surfaced online. Later, the same device debuted in China with the OnePlus Turbo 6V branding, which carries the model number PLY110. The CPH2805 device appears to be a rebranded version of the Turbo 6V. Globally, it may launch as part of the Nord 6 lineup, though it remains unclear whether it will be called the OnePlus Nord 6V or the OnePlus Nord CE 6.
Considering that the Nord CE 6 or Nord 6V could be a rebranded version of the Turbo 6V, it is expected to feature a 6.78-inch AMOLED panel with a 1.5K resolution, a 144Hz refresh rate, and an ultrasonic in-screen fingerprint sensor. Under the hood, the device may include the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 4 chip, along with LPDDR5x RAM, UFS 4.1 storage, and a large 9,000mAh battery with support for 100W charging.
The Nord CE 6 may also feature a 16-megapixel front camera and a dual rear camera setup consisting of a 50-megapixel main sensor and a 2-megapixel secondary lens. Other expected features include dual speakers and an IP68/69-rated dust and water-resistant body.

This year’s MWC was packed with announcements from all the big tech and hardware brands. As usual, the big-name devices received most of the attention. Foldables, concept devices, or the camera shootouts.
But every year, some of the most interesting things to come out of Barcelona end up buried under the noise. This year was no different. So here are ten announcements from MWC 2026 you may have missed.
Motorola × GrapheneOS
One of MWC’s most surprising announcements came from Motorola and GrapheneOS.
As you might know, GrapheneOS is the hardened, Google-free version of Android that has always run exclusively on Google Pixel phones. But this changed at MWC 2026.
Motorola Edge 70 Fusion
Motorola signed a long-term deal with the GrapheneOS Foundation to bring the OS to a future Motorola device. The first compatible hardware is expected to be based on the Signature, Razr Fold, or Razr Ultra lines, built around a future Qualcomm SPU, and is targeted for 2027.
But the deal goes beyond one device. Select GrapheneOS security features will roll out to existing Motorola phones, too. There is also a new “Private Image Data” tool in rollout that automatically strips location data and device metadata from every photo you take before it leaves your phone. Lenovo’s ThinkShield enterprise security stack ties the whole thing together.
Qualcomm Snapdragon X105
As always, Qualcomm had a busy MWC, and there were a lot of announcements from the chipmaker. One such is the new Snapdragon X105 modem designed for the upcoming wave of Android flagships.
The X105 is 15 percent smaller than its predecessor, 30 percent more power-efficient, and has baked-in support for agentic AI tasks. Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and GPS are bundled in the same package.
The headline feature, however, is satellite connectivity that now extends to emergency satellite video calls, not just text and voice. It can also predict RF conditions with the help of sensing software to try to maintain a stronger connection.
Lenovo AI Workmate
Lenovo brought a lot of concepts to Barcelona this year, but the AI Workmate might be one of the coolest among all.
It is a motorised desktop robot arm. It has sensors. It has a projector head. It points at your desk and displays interactive notifications, tools, and information directly onto the surface in front of you. It also has expressive animated eyes, which either sounds charming or unsettling, depending on your tolerance for personality in office hardware.
Lenovo also announced an AI Work Companion Concept to go along with the Workmate. Its a smart display and clock that syncs your tasks across devices and helps plan your day.
Lenovo has a decent track record of turning its MWC concepts into shipping products within a year or two. Here’s hoping that the AI Workmate shows up in a ThinkSmart lineup before 2028.
Starlink becomes “Starlink Mobile” and shows what V2 satellites actually mean
SpaceX gave a proper keynote at MWC this year, which is notable in itself. The headline out of it was the official rebrand of their direct-to-device service to “Starlink Mobile.”
The more interesting part was what they shared about the V2 constellation. The next generation of Starlink satellites targets up to 150 Mbit/s mobile data speeds using globally harmonised S-band spectrum. That is roughly a 100× improvement in data density over the current fleet.
Starlink Mobile already operates across 32 countries with 10 million monthly active users, and the company has set a target of 25 million users by the end of 2026.
Deutsche Telekom × Starlink
This one got a brief mention in a few places, but the full picture is worth spelling out.
Deutsche Telekom officially signed on at MWC as the first European carrier partner for Starlink’s V2 constellation.
The plan is to use satellite connectivity to plug the coverage gaps that tower infrastructure simply cannot solve. The service is targeting a 2028 launch in Germany. It is being designed so that existing Deutsche Telekom SIM cards work without any changes.
Vodafone × Amazon Kuiper
Amazon Kuiper is the counterpart of Starlink from Jeff Bezos, and it also made an announcement at MWC 2026.
It signed a partnership with Vodafone to use LEO satellites to deliver backhaul capacity to 4G and 5G base stations across Europe and Africa. With over 200 Kuiper satellites already in orbit, the network can already deliver up to 1 Gbps download and 400 Mbps upload to ground infrastructure.
Rollout begins in Germany and other European markets in 2026, before expanding through Vodafone’s Vodacom subsidiary across Africa. The goal is to replace the expensive and slow-to-build fibre runs that currently hold back rural coverage.
AMD Ryzen AI 400 desktop
AMD chose MWC — a mobile-focused event — to launch its Ryzen AI 400 and Ryzen AI PRO 400 desktop processors.
These are the world’s first desktop chips to meet Microsoft’s Copilot+ PC requirements, meaning they can run the full suite of on-device AI features that Microsoft has been building since 2024.
They are built on Zen 5 architecture with AMD XDNA 2 NPUs that deliver up to 60 TOPS of AI compute. Copilot+ demands 40 TOPS of AI compute. The top configurations go up to 8 cores, a 5.1GHz boost clock, and Radeon 860M integrated graphics.
Dell, HP, and Lenovo have all confirmed systems using these chips, expected in Q2 2026.
Oukitel WP61 + RG14-P
Oukitel is not a brand that gets much mainstream coverage, but their MWC lineup this year was genuinely remarkable, and the WP61 specifically is a first-of-its-kind device.
The WP61 is the world’s first smartphone to combine NTN two-way satellite connectivity, a thermal imaging camera, and a DMR digital walkie-talkie in a single chassis. The device is for emergency responders, construction teams, and field workers who currently carry multiple devices.
Alongside it, Oukitel announced RG14-P, a solar laptop powered by an Intel Core 7 150U processor, with a dual-battery system (3,000mAh internal plus a swappable 5,200mAh pack) and a 14.1-inch touchscreen. It is built for people who work where power outlets do not exist. The RT10 Pro industrial tablet, with a built-in projector and a 25,000mAh battery, rounds out the lineup.
AWS commits $33 billion to Spain: Europe’s AI infrastructure hub takes shape
Amazon’s Chief Global Affairs and Legal Affairs Officer, David Zapolsky, used MWC as the venue to announce that AWS is expanding its Spain infrastructure investment to $33 billion, an increase of $18 billion over a prior commitment.
The plans are specific and large. Amazon plans to build seven new solar facilities, a new manufacturing plant in Aragon that will serve as the hub for European server and server rack production.
GSMA × ESA
The final story is also the most forward-looking one.
At MWC, the GSMA and the European Space Agency jointly announced up to €100 million in new funding to accelerate convergence between space infrastructure and terrestrial mobile networks. The goal is to fund projects that combine LEO satellite capacity with 5G and 6G ground systems.
This kind of institutional backing makes satellite-mobile convergence happen on a faster timeline than the market would manage on its own. The immediate applications are emergency connectivity and rural coverage.

The rice cooker comes with a fluorine-free ceramic-coated inner pot that improves safety and durability. Xiaomi uses a high-temperature sintering process to bond the ceramic layer tightly to the metal body. The pot features multiple layers, including a non-stick ceramic surface, a wear-resistant reinforcement layer, and a heat-conducting aluminum core. This design enhances heat retention and durability while simplifying post-cooking cleanup.
Xiaomi has equipped the rice cooker with eight cooking modes, including standard rice, porridge, soup, steamed dishes, reheated rice, and cake. The device also features a Perfect Cook temperature control system. This system uses nine cooking stages to automatically adjust heat and cooking time, optimizing the process from soaking to simmering.
The Mijia IH Rice Cooker 2 includes additional features, including a 24-hour timer, a 12-hour keep-warm function, and a top-mounted touch control panel with a display. Xiaomi has upgraded the foam breaker to prevent overflow during porridge or soup cooking. The detachable design makes it easier to clean.
