There are plenty of internet service providers in Virginia Beach, but if you're looking for the best, these are our top picks.

At Snapdragon Summit 2024, Qualcomm unveiled its new Snapdragon 8 Elite mobile chipset with the usual marketing cocktail of flashy benchmark scores and bold performance promises (“the GPU is 40% faster” etc...), but it can be hard to discern how – or indeed if – these on-paper improvements will enhance the real-world experience of Android users.

Qualcomm, of course, is acutely aware that good-looking numbers don’t tell the whole story, and the semiconductor giant was happy to elaborate on the tangible benefits of its Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset when posed a question on the matter in a roundtable interview attended by TechRadar.

Chris Patrick, SVP of Qualcomm’s Mobile Handset division, began his refreshingly jargon-free answer by referencing the Snapdragon 8 Elite’s gaming-related upgrades: “Gaming is one use case that really pushes a smartphone chipset to its limit [because] it keeps consuming every possible processing resource,” the former engineer explained.

“The difference between playing a game when it's struggling to render the frame, or struggling to process multiple characters on the screen [...] and the experience we’ve had testing Oryon [the CPU inside the Snapdragon 8 Elite] [is stark]. Those experiences are now effortless. There's no lag. The device isn't heating up anymore, even at ridiculous levels of detail. So, that's a pretty compelling [upgrade].”

“We’ve also talked about web browsing,” Patrick continued. “In a way, web browsing seems old-fashioned but in the end, that's what people do with phones, right? Download, consume, and interact with web pages – there are mobile versions and then desktop versions.

“Now, with this elite class of processor, you don’t need the mobile version [of web pages] anymore. Even a more complex, more heavy, more feature-rich desktop version [of a page] will feel effortless. The device [equipped with Snapdragon 8 Elite] will not struggle to load it. Those same web engines are at the heart of many, many applications. Many applications that you run, they’re used to accepting some limitations – now, they’ll be snappy and responsive. This will make a big impact.”

Also in attendance at the roundtable interview, Shahin Farahani, Senior Director of Product Management at Qualcomm, weighed in with his thoughts on the Snapdragon 8 Elite’s real-world upgrades: “There are a few more [upgrades] that are easy to explain. [With the Snapdragon 8 Elite] I now have a higher [generative AI] resolution available to me – 512 x 512 image resolution before, now I can do 1024 x 1024. That’s four times bigger.

“You [also] get significantly better power saving,” Farahani continued. “If you look at the GPU power rate when playing a game, it’s 40% more efficient, so you’re getting much longer battery life. Benchmarks are part of any [chipset] evaluation, but they’re not everything.”

So there you have it, folks. Slicker gaming, smoother web browsing, and better battery life brought about by improvements in CPU and GPU efficiency – that’s Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite upgrade promise in a nutshell.

As for which upcoming devices will ship with the new chipset, we know that the Xiaomi 15 and Honor Magic 7 will definitely feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite, while as-yet-unannounced devices including the Samsung Galaxy S25 and OnePlus 13 will also surely follow suit. Here’s hoping next year’s best Android phones can rival Apple’s best iPhones for power.

A report from the US Department of Homeland Security claims that self-identified militia members have posted the names and photos of US government officials in reaction to their work on the US-Mexico border.

Several benchmark refinance rates trended upward this week, but rates are expected to trend down in the coming months.

There are no more high-end small phones – nowadays, even the cheapest budget phones come equipped with 6-inch displays, and while I appreciate the immersive power of a nice large screen, I do sometimes find myself missing days gone by.

Though we didn’t know it at the time, the introduction of large smartphones – then (and sometimes still) called phablets – kicked off an extinction event that ended with the discontinuation of the iPhone 13 mini in 2022, now a rare find itself.

We’re at a point now where the term “mini” seems to have lost all meaning – for example, the upcoming Vivo X200 Pro Mini measures in at 6.31 inches, which is actually the slightest bit larger than the 6.3-inch iPhone 16 Pro.

It might come as a surprise given my previous tribute to the OnePlus Open, with its massive 7.82-inch inner display, and how quickly I fell for the 6.67-inch screen on the Xiaomi 14T, but I’ve still got some hope for the return of the small phone.

Before switching to my trusty 6.39-inch Huawei Mate 20 Pro (and, since joining TechRadar, a handful of equally large phones), I was daily driving an iPhone 5S.

I remember the 5S fondly for its headphone jack, convenient Touch ID fingerprint scanner, and indeed its incredible portability. Today’s phones are hardly a bother to lug around, but the iPhone 5S simply disappeared into any pocket you put it in, an unobtrusive and useful companion in the gym, on a hike, or at a concert, and while that small screen couldn’t display much at once it made getting to your desired app or website an absolute breeze. I never thought I’d use a phone like it again.

That was until I started using the iPhone 15 about a week ago to brush up on my iOS know-how. Sure, there may not be any small phones left, but here was one that fit in one hand and could be easily used that way, had (nearly) all the mod-cons of today’s iPhones, and that feels compact in my pocket compared to the super-sized flagships I’ve been using the past few years.

Once the initial haze of deja vu passed, I started getting to grips with just how much power Apple packs into the base model iPhone’s 6.1-inch frame. Having the full power of the A16 Bionic chip means I fly through day to day social networking and web browsing, with more than enough power for games. And as our iPhone 16 review finds, this year's iPhone brings even more performance, ready for the launch of Apple Intelligence.

More than a feeling

The iPhone 15 also just feels great to use. At an aspect ratio of 19.5:9, the display is of a fairly standard relative height, but the corners are more rounded than a typical phone which makes everything feel satisfyingly compressed. The huge advancement in bezel reduction in the 10 years between the iPhone 5S and iPhone 15 means the latter is only about an inch taller, which takes me back to a time when phones were more like dashboards to be checked than immersive media machines. The only thing I acutely miss when using the iPhone 15 is a 120Hz refresh rate – but that’s another story altogether.

Another underrated upside of using a small phone is the effect compact ergonomics have on photography. Being able to swing the iPhone 15 from my pocket to my hand and instantly open the camera app means I can capture moments more quickly than I would with a super-sized flagship, and my hands and wrists have an easier time holding the phone in landscape mode.

Apple does offer one smaller phone – the current iPhone SE inhabits the body of the iPhone 8 – but its camera system, display technology, and chipset are all somewhat dated compared to the iPhone 15. What’s more, we expect the iPhone SE could soon inherit the design of the iPhone 14, 6.1-inch display included. This could become the new standard for the small end of Apple’s phone lineup.

So, unless Apple brings out a 5S-sized iPhone with today's internals (iPhone SE SE?), the iPhone 15 is probably as close as I’ll get to the feeling of my former phone – but with this much portable power, that’s no problem at all.

A few important mortgage rates are moving up. But rate cuts from the Fed should help mortgage rates fall in the long term.

Over the past few years, Apple has been building its devices’ gaming reputations, with Mac gaming finally taking off and the iPhone becoming an incredibly popular handheld for gamers of all stripes. Now, it looks like the company could be taking things a step further with an all-new app that would work as a kind of gaming App Store.

According to “reliable sources familiar with the matter” cited by 9to5Mac, Apple plans to launch a new app that “combines functionality from the App Store and Game Center in one place.” This could let you download games, discover new titles, message your friends in-game, and more.

The report from 9to5Mac states that the app will have a “Play Now” tab with “editorial content and game suggestions” from both the App Store and Apple Arcade. The new app will house challenges, leaderboards, achievements and information about upcoming gaming events, and would also integrate with your existing Game Center profile. Developers may even be able to distribute mini games using App Clips.

The article compares Apple’s gaming app to Microsoft’s Xbox app for iPhone, which lets you set a status, see your friends’ activities, find new games and browse your game library. The idea is that it could become a gaming hub that integrates features found in several other apps from Apple.

A new Discord rival?

One of the more interesting features mentioned by 9to5Mac is one that might end up rivaling the Discord chat and calling app, which is very popular with gamers. The report states that Apple is “experimenting with some kind of integration with FaceTime and iMessage in its new gaming app – possibly to help players communicate with each other.”

Apple has tried various gaming strategies in the past, with the most prominent being Apple Arcade. This subscription service lets you pay $6.99 / £6.99 / AU$9.99 a month to gain access to a large library of ad-free games that work across multiple Apple devices.

Yet despite its promising premise, Apple Arcade has never really taken off or attracted AAA titles to its roster. That’s possibly because all of its games must work across a range of Apple products, from the iPhone to the Mac. Without being able to optimize for Apple’s more powerful systems, games are inevitably constrained in what they can do, which isn’t great news for Mac gamers.

It sounds like the gaming app unearthed by 9to5Mac would be a different beast, though. Offering a native way to communicate with other gamers might be the ace up its sleeve, but whether it will be able to convince people to ditch the incredibly popular Discord app is another matter.

It’s not clear if this app will be limited to the iPhone or brought to other devices like the Mac as well. However, 9to5Mac says it’s unknown whether Apple will release it as part of a future iOS 18 update or save it for iOS 19, suggesting it will come to Apple’s mobile devices at the very least. Whatever the case, it could help to strengthen Apple’s position as a company that takes gaming increasingly seriously.

Nvidia’s next-gen Blackwell laptop GPUs have been the subject of another leak, with a new claim that the GB203 chip, which is set to be the engine of the desktop RTX 5080 graphics card, will not only power the laptop RTX 5090, but also the mobile RTX 5080.

That said, the theory is that with the RTX 5080 notebook incarnation, as you’d expect, it’ll be very much cut-down for core count, but we could still get a much more powerful GPU than the RTX 4080 – which very much disappointed laptop gamers and creatives alike (especially with a weak sauce VRAM loadout of 12GB).

Leaker Moore’s Law is Dead (MLID) provides this rumor, substantiating it with a (purported) photo of an engineering sample of the GB203 chip in question, which is cut down to 8,192 CUDA cores (the full loadout is rumored to be 10,752 cores).

It’s supposedly paired with 16GB of GDDR7 video memory, the source believes – and MLID notes it’s one of his strongest Nvidia sources – with the contention that this will almost certainly be the laptop RTX 5080, or perhaps a 5080 Ti.

VideoCardz, which flagged this one, further notes that the sample chip codename matches a previous leak from laptop giant Clevo.

Analysis: A seriously peppy RTX 5080 is in the cards – or will Nvidia nerf it yet?

Obviously we need to be careful here, and as MLID admits himself, there’s no conclusive proof that this is happening as explained – for example this leak could actually be about a Blackwell workstation graphics card. The leaker doesn’t think so, though, and is fairly convinced this will be the configuration of a laptop RTX 5080, or some spin on that mobile GPU.

As MLID further points out, if the RTX 5090 is getting a boost with VRAM (to 24GB of GDDR7, again in theory), it makes sense that its sibling (and the rest of the Blackwell mobile range) will have to move in concert with that.

We shouldn’t underestimate the generational performance leap that this purported RTX 5080 could provide here. Sticking with the GB203 chip for the RTX 5080 mobile – even though this would be cut down by a quarter, core count-wise – and pairing it with 16GB of GDDR7 (running at 28Gbps) would make for something like a 50% leap in performance compared to the RTX 4080 for laptops.

In some ways, that’s a reflection of the disappointment that was the spec of said RTX 4080 (with 12GB as already noted), but still, it’d represent a fantastic leap for the best gaming laptops in terms of a non-flagship GPU that’d hopefully be an excellent top-end value proposition. MLID even believes it could have more than a 50% gen-on-gen performance boost, but this remains guesswork based on rumors, and so requires that extra bit of caution to be exercised.

There are ways it might not pan out, too, with the leaker pointing out the Nvidia could reduce the speed of the VRAM (below 28Gbps, the base flavor of GDDR7), or otherwise artificially nerf the graphics card (maybe in ways required for power efficiency and thermals, sacrificing some performance). Team Green will likely temper this RTX 5080 so it’s not too attractive a proposition, though it very much appears that way in this leak – which is where the ‘well, this could be an RTX 5080 Ti’ thinking comes in, of course. Not that it makes sense for a 5080 Ti to be in testing quite this early, mind, unless a lot of next-gen laptop GPUs are fairly close to being sprung.

At any rate, the hint is very much that Nvidia’s Blackwell GPUs for laptops could be a real step up, and we may see these RTX 5000 offerings unveiled at CES 2025, or that’s one rumor – which is backed up by the fact that sample chips are apparently now floating around.

Want to start your mornings in Italian style, and have $7,000 burning a hole in your pocket? Porsche has unveiled a new manual espresso machine made in partnership with La Marzocco, one of the biggest names in premium Italian coffee makers.

The Porsche x La Marzocco Linea Micra is a compact machine that takes design cues from the 911 Carrera RSR – the car with which Porsche won the Targa Florio endurance race in 1973. That means steam and water handles modeled after the car's drive-mode switch, manual speedometer-style pressure gauges, and colors borrowed from the Porsche 911 GT3 with Touring Package.

The machine has a generous two-liter water tank, and an insulated steam wand that you can easily position without burning yourself. The multi-portafilter has replaceable spouts (single, double, and bottomless) made from insulating resin, which prevents heat being conducted away from the espresso.

There's integrated LED lighting so you can see exactly how fast your shot is being extracted (and stop the machine when it's done), and there's wireless connectivity so that you can switch it on and off remotely via the La Marzocco Home app, so it's warmed up and ready for when you want to start brewing a shot.

If that's not enough, you can round out your setup with a co-ordinating La Marzocco coffee grinder, plus matching espresso cups and saucers.

It might rank up with the best espresso machines in terms of performance, but sadly we won't be testing the Porsche x La Marzocco Linea Micra any time soon. Not only does it have an eye-watering retail price of $6,949 / £5,270 (about AU$10,400), but at the time of writing the limited run of 911 units appears to have sold out.

Premium gaming audio brand Audeze has revealed a new limited edition variant of its Maxwell wireless gaming headset. 

The Audeze Maxwell Wasabi Edition comes in a striking, shiny green that has been designed to compliment Xbox consoles. It has an electroplated finish, giving its ear cups and headband that distinctive emerald hue.

Elsewhere, the new headset is identical to the existing Audeze Maxwell - but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. It has 90mm planar magnetic drivers, an ultra-low latency wireless connection, a microphone that features AI noise reduction, and full Dolby Atmos support.

We were big fans of the original release, awarding it a glowing four out of five stars in our Audeze Maxwell review. Plenty of praise was leveled at its clear, detailed sound which comes closer to the standard you would expect from audiophile products than your usual gaming accessories. The 80 hour battery life and fantastic microphone also impressed, though the large and heavy design left some room for improvement.

We also lamented the rather plain design, though this limited edition goes a long way to help address that. In terms of compatibility, the Audeze Maxwell works with PC, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo Switch, and mobile. An embedded Dolby Atmos license, which lets use the separate Dolby Access software, is also included for Xbox and PC.

The Wasabi Edition is available now from the Audeze website and costs $329, slightly more than the $299 retail price of the original model. Although quite expensive for any gaming product, it’s not a bad package and could be a great alternative to many of the best Xbox Series X headsets or best PC gaming headsets if you’re a big fan of the look.

VMware has been forced to release a second patch for a serious security vulnerability in its vCenter Server platform after an initial release failed to fix the issue.

Users are advised to apply the fix immediately, since the identified flaws are quite dangerous and without a proper workaround.

The good news is that there is currently no evidence of in-the-wild abuse, so perhaps the miscreants haven’t yet picked up on them. However, since there are no workarounds, and businesses are known to be slow with patching, it’s only a matter of time before they do.

No workaround

"All customers are strongly encouraged to apply the patches currently listed in the Response Matrix," the advisory reads.

In mid-September 2024, VMware released a security advisory, claiming to have patched two flaws in vCenter Server that could have granted threat actors remote code execution (RCE) abilities. These flaws were tracked as CVE-2024-38812 and CVE-2024-38813.

The former affects vCenter 7.0.3, 8.9.2, and 8.0.3, as well as all versions of vSphere or VMware Cloud Foundation prior to the ones listed above. It was given a severity score of 9.8 (critical) since it can be exploited without user interaction, and since it grants RCE capabilities to a threat actor sending a custom-built network packet.

The latter, on the other hand, is a 7.5-severity flaw, granting root privilege escalation.

According to The Register, these two flaws are particularly dangerous when chained together, since a threat actor could first remotely execute malicious code, and then gain administrative privileges for even more damage. What’s more, VMware systems are a popular target for ransomware operators and state-sponsored threat actors, given their omnipresence in the business world.

Both vulnerabilities were first discovered by Team TZL at Tsinghua University, during the Matrix Cup Cyber Security Competition, held in China earlier this year, the publication added.

Polar, maker of some of the best running watch offerings on the market, has unveiled its brand new Vantage M3 smartwatch, the successor to its formidable multi-sport fitness companion.

With the Vantage M3, Polar says it's bringing "class-leading training and health features" to its mid-range watch for the first time.

New features include the addition of dual-frequency GPS for more accurate measurements when running and cycling, offline maps to download and navigate without the internet on-wrist, wrist-based ECG readings, nightly skin temperature monitoring, and blood oxygen saturation measurements.

The M3's display is a 1.28-inch AMOLED screen sporting Gorilla Glass 3, housed in a stainless-steel bezel. But what else can users expect?

Polar Vantage M3: Specs and price

Under the hood, Polar says the Vantage M3 is good for up to 30 hours of battery life when training, or a whopping seven days in smartwatch mode, despite its size and light weight.

The M3 weighs just 53 grams, which Polar says makes it ripe for use when cycling, running, hiking, and more.

The M3 supports tracking for over 150 sports and also includes training and recovery tools, as well as data and insights tailored to those who play multiple sports.

Thanks to its battery life, users can wear the Vantage M3 24 hours a day and get comprehensive data about their exercise, activity, calorie consumption, sleep, and long-term recovery.

The M3 also features science-backed training load metrics to help users understand the strain training can place on their cardiovascular and musculoskeletal systems.

Available now, the Vantage M3 is available in Night Black or Greige Sand for the price of £349 (US and US pricing tbc). At that price, it looks set to undercut Garmin's similarly training-focused AMOLED Forerunner range, with the exception of the cheaper Garmin Forerunner 165.

If you use Google Messages as your default SMS and RCS app on Android, your messaging experience is about to get significantly safer: Google is rolling out five new features to protect you from scammers, spammers, and more.

As detailed in a blog post, the first feature – launching in the beta version of the app to begin with – is enhanced scam detection, which uses on-device machine learning to better identify and flag up scam texts (involving fake deliveries or job listings, for example).

Then there are warnings about potentially dangerous links – the sort that try and get you to visit fraudulent websites that'll pinch personal information from you. Already in testing in India, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore, this is expanding globally later this year.

A number of different factors are used to assess whether or not a link is dangerous, including any information that Google already has about the sender (there are already similar link vetting features in Gmail and Chrome).

Checking message senders

The features will take a while to roll out to phones like the Pixel 9 (Image credit: Future)

Third are new controls to turn off messages from unknown international senders: you'll soon have the option to hide texts that have been sent from an international number, by someone who isn't already in your contacts.

These messages won't disappear completely, but will be moved to the spam folder already in the Google Messages app. This might take a while to reach you though, with a pilot trial limited to Singapore launching first, later this year.

Fourthly, a sensitive content warning is being introduced to blur images that may contain nudity, before allowing them to be shown – with extra protections against accidental shares. It's going to be opt-out for those under 18, Google says, and opt-in for adults.

Finally, Google says it's working on an improved contact verification feature – involving PINs and QR codes – so you can be sure the person you're messaging is the person they say they are. This is in the works, and is due to be launched next year.

Samsung is rolling out some new features to its Samsung Health app to give users more oversight over their medication, health records, and daily food intake.

The Samsung Health app is on many of the best Android smartwatches on the market, letting users track various health metrics including exercise and sleep in tandem with devices like the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 or the new Samsung Galaxy ring.

Samsung has announced three major upgrades to the app, and they're available now to users on Android 10.0 or later.

The new Health Records feature lets users access medical records from clinics, hospitals, and major health networks within the app. Powered by a partnership with b.well Connected Health, Samsung says the feature "guides users toward preventative care by offering meaningful insights and alerts that suggest next steps."

Alongside Health Records, Samsung is adding new functionality to its Medications tracking feature, which lets users track and record prescriptions, while providing information about side effects and warnings about drug interactions or food reactions.

You can now add medication by simply scanning the pill bottle with your phone camera, and there's a new dashboard where you can monitor medication progress.

Finally, Samsung Health is getting a feature borrowed from MyFitnessPal that will make food tracking a breeze. Barcode scanning has been added to the app, letting users log food details simply by scanning food barcodes with their iPhone camera.

Samsung says the new features will roll out first in the US, with availability in select European countries, including France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Poland on the way. The UK and Australia aren't currently on the list, but Samsung says the features will be rolled out to "additional markets" in the future.

Version 6.28 of the Samsung Health app should be rolling out now to users.
