With the iPhone 16 expected to be announced later this year, a new rumor regarding its display shows Apple is committed to bringing an ultra-thin bezel technology so users can take the most out of the screen.The information comes from Korea’s SisaJournal (via MacRumors). According to the publication, Apple plans to use border Reduction Structure (BRS) technology to minimize the bezel at the bottom of the display, which can be done by rolling up the internal copper wiring into a compact package. What’s so…

If your AirPods are looking old and out of date or you’ve just flushed yours down the toilet like my partner did, 2024 may be the year you get that replacement. As reported by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, “2024 is going to be a massive year for Apple’s smallest product”. In the Q&A for his latest newsletter, he says that there will be a “low-end and mid-tier” version of the AirPods launching this year to replace the second and third-generation AirPods respectively. We aren’t sure exactly what this means just yet but,…

Kyle Kucharski/ZDNETZDNET's key takeawaysFor $129, the Opal Tadpole, a tiny external webcam (supposedly the smallest ever built) designed to clip onto your laptop screen and blast your built-in webcam's capabilities out of the water. It comes with 4K video resolution, a mirrorless Sony 48-megapixel  IMX582 Exmor RS sensor, and a directional microphone that only picks up sound from the camera's field of vision. The result is professional-level video quality that looks like it's coming from a "real" camera but in a…

Micron, the leading American memory chip maker, announced its latest solution at the MWC 2024. The company this is the most compact UFS 4.0 package yet, standing at just 9 x 13 millimeters. It still offers offer up to 1 TB capacity and excellent performance - 4300 MB/s sequential read and 4000 MB/s sequential write speed. The major reason Micron brought the smaller solution is feedback from smartphone OEMs, who said they wanted more room for larger batteries. The American company developed the product in its joint…

Astronomers have recently made an intriguing discovery in our solar system, uncovering two tiny moons circling Neptune and one orbiting Uranus. These newfound celestial companions bring the total count of known moons around these gas giants to 16 for Neptune and 28 for Uranus.The most remarkable of these discoveries is Uranus' new moon, believed to be the smallest ever detected around the ice giant. Measuring a mere 5 miles (8 kilometers) in width, this diminutive moon completes a single orbit around Uranus every 680…

Despite keeping us grounded and warping light that travels through space, gravity is actually quite a weak force. The smaller the mass, the less gravity appears to have any pull, until at quantum scales it appears to have no force at all.Dave Bautista Opens Up About His Relationship With Denis VilleneuveNow, physicists in England and Europe have measured a tiny—but apparent—gravitational pull on a minuscule mass, making it the smallest mass to yet show the signs of gravity, a force that has perplexed physicists for…

Researchers at Washington State University have developed the smallest and fastest micro-robots, potentially transforming fields from artificial pollination to surgery. Utilizing shape memory alloys for movement, these robots—significantly lighter and quicker than previous models—aspire to achieve greater autonomy and efficiency by mimicking natural insect behavior.

The Hubble Space Telescope has observed the smallest planet outside our solar system to contain water vapor in its atmosphere, a "landmark discovery" that brings astronomy a step closer to characterizing Earth-like worlds.At around twice Earth's diameter, planet GJ 9827d orbits a red dwarf star 97 light-years away in the constellation Pisces, NASA and the European Space Agency (ESA) said in statements on Thursday.The team behind the finding are examining two scenarios: either the planet is a "mini-Neptune" with a…
