Fine living Slim is still in
Slim smartphones were supposed to be a relic of the past—remember when thin was the 'thing'? Clearly, Samsung didn't get the memo; they printed it out, framed it, and put it on the wall as inspiration. Enter the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, a device so svelte it practically demands its own diet plan. But does thinness cost functionality? Let's dive in.

Android 16 will warn if you are connected to a fake ‘Stingray' cell tower
From banking details to pictures of friends and family, smartphones are a treasure trove of personal information. And while you can take all the precautionary measures to keep sensitive data safe, some attacks are very hard to protect against. One of these is the infamous stingray attack, which intercepts all your phone calls and SMSes. Often used by surveillance agencies around the world, the attack works by tricking your smartphone into connecting to a fake cell tower. However, a new feature coming with Android 16 might be able to warn you if you are being snooped on. With Android 16, Google is reintroducing the 'mobile network security' settings page as part of the Safety Center, which can be accessed by heading over to the Security & privacy tab in the Settings app. Here, you will see two subsections – 'Notifications', which features a toggle named 'Network notifications', enabling which will allow Android to warn if your phone connects to any unencrypted network or when it asks about your phone's unique identifiers. However, this toggle is disabled by default. When enabled, Android will display a message in the notification panel as well as the Safety Center whenever your phone switches from an encrypted to an unencrypted network or vice versa. The second subsection – called '2G network protection' is a toggle that lets you disable or enable the phone's 2G connectivity. It is also disabled by default. One thing to note here is that the feature might only be available with devices that come with Android 16 out of the box, as these devices will support Android's Radio HAL 3.0 drivers. However, the 'Mobile network security' page will only be visible when your device supports both of these features, which is why it is missing from any of the current Pixel devices running Android 16. But a Google policy that allows smartphone manufacturers to decide the hardware requirements at launch might mean that we won't be seeing the feature on any of the current devices. Also, this isn't the first time Google has tried to block Stingray attacks. On Android 15, the operating system will warn users when a network asks for a device's unique identifiers, like the IMEI number. A few years ago, when the tech giant rolled out Android 12, it added an option that allowed users to disable 2G connectivity.

Govt Tests Emergency Alert System On Phones: What Is Cell Broadcast And Why It Matters
The Department of Telecom on Saturday sent a pan-India emergency alert on mobile phones. The popup alert, received by smartphone users, contains a test message that informs the users about the government's initiative. The text of the message said, "Test Alert, It is a 'test cell broadcast' message and requires no action from the recipient." The message is dated 28/06/2025 #900. 'Android users can disable these alerts by navigating to 'Settings' > 'Security & emergency' > 'Wireless emergency alerts' and turning off 'Test alerts'. iOS users can disable these alerts by going to 'Settings' > 'Notifications' and scrolling down to turn off 'Test alerts'. The test message that surprised many users is the government's way to test the emergency cell broadcast technology developed by the Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT). Why does the government send these messages? The primary purpose of the Cell Broadcast Alert System is to provide real-time alerts during emergencies, helping to save lives by spreading vital information quickly. This advanced technology is designed to notify people about major threats such as earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, or other disasters. Unlike regular text messages, cell broadcasts can be sent to all mobile phones within a specific geographical area, ensuring wide and immediate coverage without overwhelming telecom networks. Government authorities and emergency services use this system to issue warnings and share crucial updates with the public. By delivering timely instructions, such as evacuation notices or safety precautions, the Cell Broadcast Alert System plays a critical role in disaster management and public safety, helping citizens act swiftly during high-risk situations.
