HMD Touch 4G: Tiny ‘Hybrid Phone’ Blends Nokia-Era Simplicity With 4G Smarts in India

HMD Touch 4G: Tiny ‘Hybrid Phone’ Blends Nokia-Era Simplicity With 4G Smarts in India

Bridging Feature Phones and Smartphones HMD is marketing the Touch 4G as a bridge between basic phones and full smartphones – hence the “hybrid” label gadgets360.com gadgets360.com. In practice, it means users get some smartphone-like functionality (touchscreen UI, internet apps, video calling) while retaining the simplicity, affordability, and stamina of a classic feature phone. “The line between smartphone and feature phone just got a bit smudgy,” HMD quips in its promo, highlighting that Touch 4G “combines the best of both worlds” hmd.com hmd.com. Crucially, the Touch 4G does not run Android or support the vast app ecosystems of Google or Apple. Instead, it

Tech Shockwaves: Space Spies, TikTok’s Lifeline & Cyber Chaos – Global Tech Roundup (Sept 22–23, 2025)

Global Tech Policy & Big Tech Battles TikTok’s Last-Minute Reprieve in U.S. A high-stakes TikTok divestment deal is coming to fruition in Washington, staving off a looming ban. President Donald Trump will sign an order declaring that TikTok’s U.S. operations have a buyer that meets legal requirements, a White House official said reuters.com. Under the plan, China’s ByteDance will retain less than 20% of TikTok, with the U.S. entity controlled by existing American stakeholders and new heavyweight investors reuters.com. Oracle and private equity firm Silver Lake are confirmed participants, and the full roster “is going to be real household names,”

From VAR to VR: How High-Tech is Revolutionizing the 2025 Champions League

From VAR to VR: How High-Tech is Revolutionizing the 2025 Champions League

Officiating Tech: VAR, Offside AI and More When it comes to refereeing, the Champions League is more high-tech than ever. VAR (Video Assistant Referee) was first introduced to the competition in 2019 and has since become a fixture of every match uefa.com. VAR focuses only on game-changing situations (goals, penalties, direct reds, mistaken identity) and steps in for “clear and obvious” errors refrsports.com. Over the years, UEFA has worked to make VAR quicker and less disruptive – a response to early criticisms that reviews took too long and broke the flow of the game. UEFA President Aleksander Čeferin himself urged

6G Terahertz Showdown: Samsung’s 140 GHz Testbed vs. Qualcomm’s 6G Foundry in the 0.3 THz Race

6G Terahertz Showdown: Samsung’s 140 GHz Testbed vs. Qualcomm’s 6G Foundry in the 0.3 THz Race

The June 2021 Samsung-UCSB demonstration achieved 6.2 Gbps real-time throughput at 140 GHz over 15 meters using 2 GHz of bandwidth and a 128-element phased-array. Samsung notes terahertz wideband channels could eventually support Tbps peak speeds and cut air latency to one-tenth of 5G’s. Samsung obtained FCC approval in late 2021 to trial 6G transmissions in the 133–148 GHz band at its Texas lab. Qualcomm’s 6G Foundry is a broad R&D program spanning spectrum, waveforms, AI-native networking, and integrated sensing, not a single device. Qualcomm demonstrated 50–70% capacity gains in legacy FDD bands through waveform evolution and MIMO without changing

Li-Fi vs Wi-Fi 7 vs 5G: Which Next-Gen Wireless Will Rule 2025?

Li-Fi vs Wi-Fi 7 vs 5G: Which Next-Gen Wireless Will Rule 2025?

The IEEE 802.11bb Li-Fi standard was ratified in mid-2023, providing a global framework for interoperable Li-Fi devices. PureLiFi’s Light Antenna One module can deliver about 1 Gbps at distances from 20 cm to roughly 3 m using standard LED sources. Lab demonstrations have surpassed 100 Gbps with Li-Fi, with a cited test reaching 224 Gbps in lab conditions. Real-world Li-Fi speeds are around 1 Gbps, and Li-Fi is positioned as a complementary technology to Wi-Fi rather than a replacement. Wi‑Fi 7, known as 802.11be, began certification in 2024, and by 2025 the first Wi‑Fi 7 routers, mesh systems, and client

The Race to 6G: How the Next-Gen Network Will Revolutionize Connectivity (and Leave 5G in the Dust)

The Race to 6G: How the Next-Gen Network Will Revolutionize Connectivity (and Leave 5G in the Dust)

6G will operate in sub-terahertz bands roughly 0.1–1 THz, enabling peak data rates up to 1 Tbps under ideal conditions, a goal highlighted by researchers like Mahyar Shirvanimoghaddam. Ultra-low latency targets microseconds, specifically about 1 µs one-way, enabling real-time holographic video, tactile Internet, and near-instantaneous AR/VR. AI-native architecture: 6G will embed AI/ML at its core, with industry players like Nokia Bell Labs aiming to validate an AI-native air interface. Integrated sensing and imaging: 6G will fuse wireless communication with sensing to enable millimeter-precision positioning and environmental monitoring. Ubiquitous connectivity across ground, air, and space: non-terrestrial networks (NTN) are designed in

Satellites, Submarine Cables & Cell Phones: Inside Haiti’s Battle for the Internet

Satellites, Submarine Cables & Cell Phones: Inside Haiti’s Battle for the Internet

As of early 2025, about 39.3% of Haitians—roughly 4.65 million people—were using the internet. By 2025 there were about 10.2 million active mobile connections in Haiti, equating to 86% of the population, with many subscribers holding multiple SIMs. Approximately 93.7% of mobile connections use 3G, 4G, or other broadband technologies, while only around 40% of Haitians are covered by 4G LTE networks. Fixed broadband uptake is extremely low, with well under 1% of residents subscribing to wired services. Digicel Haiti and Natcom are the two main mobile operators, with Digicel holding about two-thirds of subscribers and Natcom being the state-Viettel
