Mobile Hardware & Disassembly

Samsung Electronics has provided an early look at the internal architecture of its standard flagship device, as a new disassembly video revealed the construction of the Galaxy S26. Owners of the newly launched handset can immediately improve alert management, since the finer control over app alerts provided by notification categories ships disabled by default. Separately, Honor unveiled the Magic Pad 4 tablet, positioning it as a complete Android package retailing for €650 or £600, depending on the region.

Software & User Experience

OnePlus users attempting to multitask following a recent software update discovered that the task switcher UI had been degraded, though the manufacturer included a hidden setting allowing users to easily revert the change to the previous, more functional layout. In unrelated software news, the development team for the open-world RPG Crimson Desert issued a formal apology this week after community members identified several instances of uncredited, AI-generated artwork present in the game build.

Elon Musk announced the ambitious Terafab project, claiming this new joint venture involving Tesla, and xAI aims to construct what he described as the "largest chip manufacturing facility ever." This massive fabrication effort contrasts sharply with ongoing consumer electronics releases and suggests a significant new investment direction for the executive's various companies.
