Samsung has a huge year ahead when it comes to new smartphone launches, as the company is expected to unveil the Galaxy S10 and Galaxy F on February 20th. The Galaxy S10 series will be the main moneymaker for the company this year, but the foldable phone is also essential for the company, considering all the hype around it right now. We’ve got billboards in Paris, as well as reports from Korea driving home the same point, that the Galaxy F — commercial name pending — is a breakthrough device, one that signals Samsung isn’t done innovating in the mobile landscape. Samsung, of course, wants to set the tone when it comes to new smartphone form factors, just as it did with the Note series years ago.

But this time around, competitors will be quick to launch foldable devices of their own, with Apple, Microsoft, Huawei, LG, and Xiaomi being a few of the companies rumored to be developing such devices. Apple is the most secretive of the bunch, and we have no idea when a foldable iPhone will be ready for mass consumption. 2019 iPhones are largely expected to resemble last year’s models when it comes to overall design, and a new iPhone design isn’t expected until 2020. A report did say that the first foldable iPhone will launch next year… but we may already have an idea of what Apple’s foldable phone could look like.

NBCUniversal CEO Steve Burke gave an interview to Deadline on Monday that Netflix’s top brass may have regarded as a shot across the bow. In that interview, Burke walked through some of the details related to the free streaming TV service that his media conglomerate — which owns MSNBC, CNBC, Syfy, USA Network and more — plans to launch next year. Another day, another media company rolling out a subscription offering.

It’s starting to be a familiar story at this point. This one has an interesting twist, though. Thanks to the Deadline interview, it’s clear that NBC’s top brass wants the new offering to be the future streaming home for The Office, the beloved sitcom the network hopes to wrench away at last from Netflix.

Sunday night, of course, gave us a brief teaser of new footage, and there were also snippets of new footage in HBO’s 2019 highlights reel it showed earlier this month — but we’re talking about a longer actual trailer that serves to amp up the excitement level around the new season even more.

Samsung’s first foldable smartphone is confirmed to launch in the first half of the year, and the handset won’t have that many rivals, as other vendors are yet to unveil their own foldable devices. But just because Samsung may not have that many competitors at first won’t guarantee the success of the Galaxy F, which is what we’re calling the device for the time being. Samsung’s biggest worry when it comes to foldable phone sales might not be related to the phone’s sky-high price or regular competitors from the mobile business. There may be a more significant threat to Samsung’s success, and it could come from an unexpected company.

Remember a few years ago when Tim Cook promised Apple would double down on product secrecy? Well, as much as Apple tries, the company simply can’t keep details about upcoming products under wraps. Just a few days after renders of an iPhone 11 with a triple-lens camera surfaced online, noted leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer is back with yet another bombshell leak. This time around, Hemmerstoffer partnered with CompareRaja to publish brand new renders of an iPhone 11 prototype Apple may be considering for release later this year.

Now the good news is that the renders below are far more aesthetically pleasing than the aforementioned triple-lens device that emerged last week. The renders below feature a triple-camera lens oriented horizontally and, interestingly enough, a flash that surrounds the camera module itself. What’s more, the new renders suggest that the notch on the iPhone 11 may shrink ever so slightly.

In addition to being one of the most successful online multiplayer games of all time, Fortnite also becomes one of the more compelling mysteries in gaming every month or so as developer Epic Games plants the seeds for its next major event. We’ve seen catastrophic storms, mysterious cubes, and now, a massive ice sphere has been spotted floating above Polar Peak. Unfortunately for Epic, dataminers might have spoiled the surprise.

On Tuesday morning, Epic began rolling out Fortnite v7.20, and it didn’t take long for tech-savvy fans of the game to begin delving into the code to see what they could find. While the official patch notes don’t say anything about the ice sphere, the datamined code indicates that a series of Ice Storm challenges will soon appear in-game, with Ice Legion enemies to defeat, and an Ice King that should make the map even more dangerous for players.
