OnePlus TVs may run on Android TV

Size ranges from 43 to 75 inches

Published

OnePlus has transformed itself into a very popular premium phone brand and this may just be a starting point. There have been rumors and reports about the brand working on a line of televisions for quite some time and this could materialize soon.

Last September, OnePlus founder Pete Lau revealed the company’s plans to build OnePlus TV. OnePlus is slowly gearing up for the launch and the TV has started reaching regulatory bodies, revealing details such as screen size and availability.

A listing was spotted by MySmartPrice on Bluetooth SIG, waiting for approval. The company has submitted a whopping 39 devices for certification and all of them are marked as “1+ LED TV.”

Lau previously said that the OnePlus TV would feature a 4K LED display, and the same can be confirmed by the listing. The 43-inch version appears to be exclusive to India, while the 75-inch option will only come to the US and China. The screen size varies from 43 inches to 75 inches.

It’s still unclear whether OnePlus will use a forked version of Android TV. The company is known for its OxygenOS powered phones, but with the TV-variant of the OS, Google doesn’t permit forking unless the brand qualifies as an “operator.”

OnePlus is going to have a lot of competition in this space because Samsung and LG have been aggressive about pushing their proprietary display technology. On the other hand, the affordable segment is currently ruled by Xiaomi in countries like India.

We wouldn’t be surprised to see OnePlus leverage its software capabilities with the TV. The OnePlus TV could very well be marketed on user-experience and smart features.

Samsung is working on the Galaxy Ring 2

It will have better health tracking and a longer battery life.

Published

Though the wearable launched with a lot of promise, the Samsung Galaxy Ring never really took off. That said, Samsung isn’t giving up. The company is already working on a Galaxy Ring 2.

In a new Forbes interview (via SamMobile), Dr. Hon Pak, head of Samsung’s Digital Health, has confirmed the development of the wearable’s sequel. The Galaxy Ring 2 will reportedly feature better health tracking and a longer battery life. Additionally, it will add support for iPhone pairing.

Because of its form factor, the original Ring comes off as a convenient health tracker for those who don’t prefer the larger nature of a smartwatch or a fitness band. However, it did have issues including a relatively short battery life and an incident where it swelled over a man’s finger.

Currently, there is no timeline for the upcoming Galaxy Ring 2. For reference, the original wearable launched all the way back in 2024. A follow-up is a reasonable ask at this point, but it’s still good that Samsung decided not to make the Ring an annual release.

Besides the Galaxy Ring 2, Samsung has a lot of tricks up its sleeve. Just today, the brand finally teased its first wide foldable phone. It’s also set to launch the Galaxy Glasses soon. On top of all this, Samsung is also experimenting with the trifold market via the Galaxy Z Trifold.

Marvel’s Blade, the videogame, might be cancelled

Microsoft might shut down the studio developing the game.

Is there a Marvel franchise more doomed than Blade? On the big screen, Mahershala Ali’s much-awaited depiction has fizzled into obscurity. Now, the videogame might follow suit.

If you haven’t heard (or have forgotten) about Marvel’s Blade, then that’s not on you. Arkane Studios, the developers behind the adaptation, haven’t said a word about the game in years. Today, according to The Verge, Microsoft might shutter Arkane Studios, inevitably leading to a cancellation of Marvel’s Blade.

The source also indicates the game itself was plagued by delays (which we know) and is already above its budget (which we don’t know). Even if Arkane Studios continues its operations, there’s already a substantial chance that the game won’t be made anyway.

Arkane Studios won’t be the only one, according to the report. Microsoft is also considering Compulsion Games, Double Fine, Ninja Theory, and Undead Labs for the chopping block.

Blade won’t be the only loss in an Arkane Studios shuttering. The studio is also responsible for the critically acclaimed Dishonored series and the more recent Deathloop.

However, in the Marvel end of things, fans can still scratch their superhero videogame itch later this year. In September, Insomniac Games, the same studio behind the wildly popular Marvel’s Spider-Man series, is set to launch Marvel’s Wolverine, a promising take on the iconic mutant.

Samsung has begun building anticipation for its next generation of Galaxy foldables with a series of teaser videos set to premiere on its official global social media channels.

Rather than showing the devices themselves, the teaser campaign transforms familiar everyday objects into visual hints. Pizza slices, chocolate bars, and other items appear in proportions that longtime Galaxy fans may recognize, subtly pointing toward the company’s foldable lineup.

According to Samsung, the campaign reflects its ongoing vision for foldables—one shaped by years of engineering innovation and consumer insights. The company says its goal is to make foldable devices feel more useful, natural, and intuitive in everyday life.

The teaser also suggests Samsung is looking beyond simply launching another device. Instead, it hints at expanding the Galaxy foldable portfolio with more choices and new ways for users to experience the Galaxy ecosystem.

Samsung has yet to reveal additional details, but the latest teasers mark the beginning of its next foldable campaign ahead of an expected Galaxy Unpacked event later this month.
