As expected, the Samsung Unpacked event on Feb. 25 confirmed the release of the Samsung Galaxy S26 family: The regular S26, the S26 Plus, and the S26 Ultra. Some big Samsung fans are pumped because they can officially preorder the Galaxy S26 — other Samsung fans are pumped because the existence of the Galaxy S26 probably means deals on the Galaxy S25.

We'll be on the lookout for deals on the Galaxy S25, S25 Ultra, S25 Edge, S25+, and S25 FE for the rest of the week, with promos from phone carriers and Samsung itself likely in the coming days.

Should you get a Galaxy S25 over the Galaxy S26?

In some ways, it even feels wrong to use a term like "settling" when opting for last year's Galaxy S25 over the S26.

If it's comforting at all, there aren't any major discrepancies in our initial direct comparison between the two — the biggest differences mostly involve the S26's expanded AI editing tools and Samsung's new Privacy Display. In terms of the two flagships, the Galaxy S25 and S26 Ultra lines have the same AMOLED display with a 1-120Hz refresh rate, and the S26 Ultra's cameras all have the same resolutions as the S25 Ultra's.

If your biggest pet peeve is a phone that loses charge over time, the S25 might actually be a safer choice. Battery health could be a main disadvantage of the S26, with reports alleging that the S26 will only be able to hit 80 percent at full charge after 1,200 charging cycles.

The Nintendo Switch has been the US’s bestselling console for 23 straight months

By
Photo by James Bareham / The Verge It’s been a good two years for the Nintendo Switch. According to Nintendo, the gaming tablet has been the bestselling console in the US for 23 straight months. And according to data from the NPD Group, it just had its best October ever, moving 735,926 units of both the Switch and Switch Lite in the US. The company says that represents a 136 percent increase compared to last year. To date, the Switch has sold 22.5 million units in the US, and last week Nintendo revealed that more than 68 million units have been sold globally . “We’re excited about our momentum,” says Nick Chavez, Nintendo of America’s SVP of sales and marketing. Chavez puts the company’s big October down to two main factors. One is a better supply of stock; this year in particular, it’s often been hard to find a Switch on store shelves. This has only been exacerbated by increased demand due to a combination of the pandemic and the breakout success of Animal Crossing: New Horizons . ...

Instagram accidentally reinstated Pornhub’s banned account

By
After years of on-and-off temporary suspensions, Instagram permanently banned Pornhub’s account in September. Then, for a short period of time this weekend, the account was reinstated. By Tuesday, it was permanently banned again. “This was done in error,” an Instagram spokesperson told TechCrunch. “As we’ve said previously, we permanently disabled this Instagram account for repeatedly violating our policies.” Instagram’s content guidelines prohibit  nudity and sexual solicitation . A Pornhub spokesperson told TechCrunch, though, that they believe the adult streaming platform’s account did not violate any guidelines. Instagram has not commented on the exact reasoning for the ban, or which policies the account violated. It’s worrying from a moderation perspective if a permanently banned Instagram account can accidentally get switched back on. Pornhub told TechCrunch that its account even received a notice from Instagram, stating that its ban had been a mistake (that message itse...

Marvel teases Zodiac spy thriller. Heres what fans are theorizing.

By
Marvel's whiplash New York Comic Con announcements have brought fans disappointing cancellation news, sneak previews, and, of course, more secrecy. Taking to the stage Oct. 8, Marvel execs announced the end of Daredevil: Born Again , which will conclude with its third season next year. The team also gave attendees a taste of the upcoming third season of X-Men '97 and VisionQuest , the last installment of the Scarlet Witch's television saga. But the online buzz is all about its mysterious new show, Zodiac , set to debut in 2028. SEE ALSO: What's new to streaming this week? (Oct. 9, 2026) Flashing the new logo on the big screen, Marvel Television head Brad Winderbaum wouldn't say much about the show's plot or characters — perhaps some meta marketing for what is being dubbed a Marvel universe spy drama — but he did hint there was more than meets the eye. "If you're a fan of the comics, there is a ...
