TechCrunch spotted the date, which seems to have been the target for early preorders since at least February, when Light mentioned it in an X post. The Light Phone 3 will have an OLED display and rear camera, but still aims for its predecessors’ minimalist vibe that doesn’t demand your constant attention.

The $70 Anbernic RG 34XX is my favorite new way to play Game Boy — but the new RixelHK app lets people use the handheld’s built-in Wi-Fi to browse a huge catalog of games for free. It encourages you to download Nintendo, Sony, and Sega titles, and they appear to be the real deal but unauthorized.

That’s Valve’s bullet point in its SteamOS 3.7.0 Preview patch notes about the promised ability to install SteamOS on other handhelds. That feature is expected to officially launch as soon as April, so it tracks that Valve is introducing it in the Preview branch now.

Embracer Group wanted to be the one video game publisher to rule them all, even buying up Lord of the Rings, until a $2 billion Saudi deal fell through and the layoffs and restructuring began.

The VP, who’s reportedly brokering discussions, told NBC News, “there will almost certainly be a high-level agreement that I think satisfies our national security concerns, allows there to be a distinct American TikTok enterprise.” That deal, according to The Information, will likely involve Oracle playing an active role to help run the US platform. As a reminder, the deadline comes from President Donald Trump’s 75 day ban delay, giving legally dubious cover to TikTok’s service providers.

The electric crossover (based on last year’s concept) will be the first built on BMW’s Neue Klasse EV platform, which introduces an 800-volt architecture and new “Gen6” battery packs featuring higher density cylindrical cells for up to 30 percent better range.

Sony Interactive Entertainment (PlayStation) and People Can Fly announced that they are working together on “a prototype for a new video game codenamed Project Delta (the “Product”), based on the intellectual property rights owned by the Publisher.” Killzone revival?

Molly White’s newsletter cogently outlines problems with how both AI companies and open access creators are approaching copyright, plus some possible solutions:

Meta is in the midst of attempting to block a memoir from an ex-employee detailing accusations of misconduct at the company. Behind the scenes, Meta has apparently also been badgering Washington Post book critic Ron Charles, sending repeated emails asking him about his plans to review Careless People: A Cautionary Tale of Power, Greed, and Lost Idealism by Sarah Wynn-Williams (you can read a preview of his newsletter below). He writes:

The China-based AI startup that made headline news earlier this year after releasing a highly capable, cost-efficient AI model, has taken the passports of some key employees, per The Information.

Former Republican Federal Communications Commission chair and oversized mug enthusiast Ajit Pai is the new CEO and president of wireless industry trade association CTIA — a prominent player in lobbying against net neutrality, state low-income broadband rules, and other regulation.

Sebastiaan de With from the Halide / Lux Camera team reviewed the iPhone 16e’s camera, and he captured some really great shots. Loved reading this.

I’m delighted by the videos appearing in my social feeds of crowdfund backers who have received their adorable TinyMaker resin printer. The print speed and quality look resoundingly “meh,” but who cares about practicality — it’s palm-sized! It comes packaged in a tiny crate! And you can store it in a lunchbox with an even smaller wash and cure station!

“Completely free of advertisement, banners, and all that sort of crap that gets in the way; just information, a user friendly website, and it’s also fully functional on mobile,” developer Poncle writes.

The Lanzador EV concept-based vehicle will also “allow for up to 2,000” horsepower according to Volkswagen Group and Porsche CEO Olliver Blume, who shared the details at an annual media conference.
