DJI Osmo Pocket 4 Rumors: Dual-Camera Housing, Passive Cooling, and a Mystery Rear Lens
December 20, 2025, 2:02 AM EST. New rumors place the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 with a larger camera housing featuring passive cooling to reduce overheating. The design is said to house two cameras, signaling a leap from the Osmo Pocket 3. The rear camera remains a mystery; it's likely not a Pocket 2, and many speculate it could be a single-lens variant of the Osmo Pocket 4. Hardware button placement seen in leaked shots lends some support to this theory. Some leaks hint at both a Pocket 4 and a Pocket 4 Pro, but there's no definitive evidence yet. Reported via OsitaLV.
Apple Maps Drops Flyover City Tours Amid iOS 26 Launch
December 20, 2025, 1:46 AM EST. Apple Maps has quietly dropped the Flyover city tours, a feature introduced in 2014 with iOS 8. The change aligns with the launch of iOS 26, though the underlying 3D Flyover imagery remains in over 350 cities. Previously, users accessed tours by tapping the Flyover icon in a city's search results; that option is no longer available. Apple continues to offer aerial, bird's-eye views built from imagery captured by aircraft described as military-grade, but privacy and security concerns limit availability in some regions. In short, interactive Flyover tours are gone, even as detailed 3D imagery of landmarks and parks persists in Apple Maps.
RAM shortage to push up prices for smartphones and PCs through 2027, IDC says
December 20, 2025, 1:44 AM EST. The global RAM shortage is expected to persist into 2027, driving higher prices for both smartphones and PCs. IDC notes memory makers like Micron, Samsung, and SK Hynix are prioritizing AI data centers, causing RAM costs to spike. Budget phone makers may pass increases to consumers, while Samsung and Apple could secure supply 12-24 months in advance and add limited RAM upgrades. Phone prices could rise 3-5% in a moderate scenario (6-8% if pessimistic). For PCs, the shortage creates pressure as AI-era models and Windows 10 retirement align with price hikes from Dell, HP, Acer, and Asus. Overall, RAM-driven price pressure remains a major theme for 2026-2027.
How to enable Expanded dark mode on a Google Pixel phone
December 20, 2025, 1:14 AM EST. Google's Pixel updates add an Expanded dark mode option to force a dark theme across apps that don't natively support it, improving accessibility and reducing glare. The feature arrives with the Android QPR2 update for Pixel 6 and newer devices. To use it, check you're on the right build (Settings > About phone > Build number should show BP4A.251205.006 or newer), then go to Settings > Display and touch > Dark theme, and select the Expanded toggle. Note that not all apps will render perfectly, and forcing dark themes can affect user experience in some cases. As a temporary workaround, this is helpful until app developers add native dark mode support.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 15 Pro+ review: bigger display, 6500mAh battery, 200MP main cam, 100W charging
December 20, 2025, 12:40 AM EST. The Redmi Note 15 Pro+ arrives with a 6.83-inch AMOLED display, a 6500mAh battery, and the Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 4, promising a step up in speed and endurance. The camera rack centers on a 200 MP main sensor with OIS, while an 8 MP ultrawide remains a sore point for critics. Xiaomi keeps the global model slightly toned down versus the Chinese variant, notably in charging (100W) vs (120W) and battery differences, but adds HDR10+Dolby Vision support and IP68/IP69K protection for rugged use. The 256/512 GB storage options with up to 12GB RAM, Android 15, and HyperOS 2 aim for a flagship-like experience at a mid-range price. In short, bigger screen, longer battery life, and a high-resolution main camera define this Pro+ iteration-at the cost of some premium features.
Tesla's Robotaxi Dream Under Scrutiny: Why 2026 Might Hit the Breaks
December 20, 2025, 12:26 AM EST. Tesla's stock has surged on robotaxi talk, but this analysis argues that 2026 could bring a screeching halt to the dream. The piece notes Musk's history of missed deadlines and optimistic timelines-from 2017 cross-country autonomously driving to 2019 Cybertruck, Roadster 2.0, and 2020-24 FSD promises. It argues that despite progress, commercial robotaxi rollout remains limited by testing and regulation. The article cites Q2 comments from Musk about approvals and safety, implying timelines persistently slip. In short, while Tesla and AI ambitions loom large, the history of overpromising deadlines casts doubt on a rapid robotaxi deployment, suggesting the 2026 timeline may look similar to previous delays rather than a breakthrough leap.
