\n iPhone Duo: The iPhone Folds for the First Time in 19 Years Nineteen years after Apple introduced the iPhone, the company has entered the foldable market for the first time. The iPhone Duo is more than just a smartphone with a folding screen. It could reshape the competitive landscape of a foldable market long led by Samsung Electronics, while also blurring the boundary between the iPhone and the iPad. When folded, it works like a conventional smartphone with a 5.4-inch outer display. Open it up, and a large 7.6-inch screen is revealed. Thanks to its book-style design, which opens from left to right like the pages of a book, the device gives the impression of combining a compact iPhone and a mini tablet into a single product. The true strength of the iPhone Duo lies not simply in its larger screen, but in how that screen can be used. When unfolded, it can run two apps simultaneously, allowing users to watch a video or attend a video conference on one side wh...

\n Edge AI: Machines Must Make Decisions Before the Cloud Can Reach Them In the few seconds it takes for sensor data from a factory robot to travel to the cloud and for the analysis results to return, a defective product may already have passed through the production line. In an autonomous vehicle, that brief delay can mean the difference between a dangerous moment and a safe evasive maneuver. AI’s competitive edge is no longer found simply in building larger models. The key is now how quickly and reliably decisions can be made as close as possible to the point where data is generated—at the very moment it emerges . At the center of this shift is Edge AI . Edge AI is an approach in which AI inference is performed close to where data is created—on cameras, sensors, robots, vehicles, and industrial gateways. Instead of sending all raw data to a centralized cloud, machines recognize situations and make decisions directly on-site. For example, an industrial camera ...

\n iPhone Duo: Apple Finally Folds the Line—Meet the $1,999 iPhone Apple has finally folded the boundary between smartphones and tablets. Unveiled in September 2026, the iPhone Duo is Apple’s first book-style foldable iPhone—and the most expensive iPhone ever, with a starting price of $1,999 . Preorders are scheduled to open at 5 a.m. PT on October 16, with the official launch set for October 23. Folded, it’s a smartphone with a 5.4-inch outer display. Open it up, and a 7.6-inch inner screen unfolds before you. This is more than simply having a larger display. With Split View in iOS 27, users can run two apps side by side, while Apple Pencil support makes it possible to take notes or sketch directly on the device. The question Apple is posing with the iPhone Duo is clear: “Does a phone really have to remain just a phone?” Why the iPhone Duo Is Being Called a “Pocket iPad” The 7.6-inch OLED inner display provides enough workspace to review documents on the...

\n Liverpool vs. Atlético: A Night at Anfield, Where the Opening Goal Wasn’t the End Atlético Madrid smiled first. Marcos Llorente’s opener briefly froze the air at Anfield. With Simeone’s side relying on a compact defensive block and rapid counterattacks, they appeared to have secured the ideal start for a major away match. But Liverpool vs. Atlético was never a game whose outcome would be decided by a single early goal. Instead of being shaken, Liverpool pressed even harder, while Atlético gradually lost their attacking outlets the deeper they dropped to protect their lead. Szoboszlai’s equalizer meant more than simply restoring balance. After winning the ball back in midfield, Liverpool surged forward, repeatedly attacking the central areas and half-spaces before Atlético’s defense could reset. Szoboszlai not only created chances but finished one himself, changing the speed and direction of Liverpool’s attack. Even after the first half ended 1-1, the moment...

\n 3:33 a.m., and American Tennis Began Moving Again: The Night of Ben Shelton As the crowd at Arthur Ashe Stadium began to tire, Ben Shelton declared his era in the most powerful way possible. An ace clocked at 235 kilometers per hour. It was the final blow after 4 hours and 28 minutes of battling the defending champion, Carlos Alcaraz. The score was 6–7, 6–1, 6–3, 1–6, 7–6. After surrendering the opening tiebreak, Shelton completely turned the momentum around in the second and third sets. Even in the deciding set, when Alcaraz mounted his comeback, Shelton refused to back down. The match ultimately went to a super tiebreak, and Shelton finished it with his greatest weapon—his serve—at the moment when the pressure was at its highest. Concluding at approximately 3:33–3:34 a.m. local time, the match became the latest finish in US Open history. But the significance of the record goes far beyond the hour on the clock. More important was the fact that Shelton, who ...
