Nothing Phone (3) vs iPhone 16 vs Samsung Galaxy S25: Specs comparison at a glance

Indian Express3 days ago
Nothing, on Tuesday, July 1, launched the Phone (3), its first-ever flagship phone. The latest from the London-based phone comes with a transparent back panel and has a rather unique design, which is controversial at best.
With the Phone (3), Nothing has ditched its iconic Glyph interface and replaced it with Glyph Matrix, a programmable mini-LED screen that can show time, icons and inform you of calls and notifications. In terms of design, the Nothing Phone (3) stands out from the likes of the Apple iPhone 16 and the Samsung Galaxy S25, both of which have a minimal-looking industrial design that looks and feels premium.
With a starting price of Rs 79,999, the Nothing Phone (3) positions itself in the hyper-competitive flagship smartphone segment, which is dominated by the likes of Apple and Samsung. If you are thinking of buying the Nothing Phone (3), here's how it stacks against the Apple iPhone 16 (review) and the Samsung Galaxy S25 (review).

How Soham Parekh managed to juggle work between startups without getting caught?

Soham Parekh, an India-based software engineer, has made headlines after admitting to secretly working across dozens of US startups at the same time. Soham Parekh was accused by Suhail Doshi, co‑founder of Mixpanel and Playground AI, of working for multiple startups at the same time.(X/@mhadifilms) The controversy surfaced after entrepreneur Suhail Doshi, in a series of posts on X, called Parekh a 'scammer' who had tricked several startups, including those backed by the Y Combinator accelerator. "PSA: there's a guy named Soham Parekh (in India) who works at 3-4 startups at the same time. He's been preying on YC companies and more. Beware," San Francisco-based Suhail Doshi posted on X. He added that Parekh worked briefly at one of his companies and was fired within his first week. It was later revealed that Parekh juggled roles at around 34 different companies, including Alan AI, Synthesia, DynamoAI and often with overlapping job periods.

How Soham Parekh operated? Dhruv Amin, co-founder of AI startup Create, took to X to share the story of how his firm hired Soham Parekh as engineer number five and that he was recommended by a recruiter. Parekh called in sick on the very first day of the job and said he would onboard from home, and gave his address to ship his laptop. "Yes, we hired him. we're building an AI agent in SF. he was eng #5.- recommended by a recruiter, which lent legitimacy. He was eager and crushed our in person pair programming onsite. I believe he's actually a good engineer...I gave offer while waiting for responses for the first (and last) accepted same evening. said he had an nyc trip planned, then would first day at 9:30 am he calls in sick (strange). said he'd onboard from home. gave an address to ship laptop," Dhruv said in a post on X. The first red flag, Dhruv said, was the shipping address. Instead of home, Parekh asked for his laptop to be shipped to a San Francisco office building. Also Read: Why is Indian coder Soham Parekh being accused of 'scamming' US startups? Explained Dhruv, who happened to be on a visit to a doctor, checked the place, which housed industrial spaces and Sync Labs, a YC-backed startup. Meanwhile, Parekh called in sick in the first week, while his GitHub account showed late-night activity on private repositories. Over the days, things got even weirder with Parekh missing meetings, delayed deliverables and made excuses. "He then spent 2 days saying he was working on something from home we knew should have taken him 1/2 a day max. always almost ready, just testing something. Finally it started blocking the main thread. So my co-founder asked to take over his branch to get it done. Almost nothing had been done," Dhruv added. When the firm found out that Soham was working for Sync Labs, they confronted him, only to get a denial. Eventually, when the co-founder called Sync Labs and asked if Soham was working there, the response from the YC company was that he was working from home that day. Dhruv added that Parekh was a good engineer, but the "biggest mistake was lying repeatedly." Soham Parekh responds Soham Parekh, who is at the center of the online storm, has publicly admitted to working for multiple startups full-time. Parekh said that the allegations against him were true and he did it due to his financial circumstances.

No one really likes to work 140 hours a week, right? But I had to do this out of necessity. I was in extremely dire financial circumstances," he said during an interview to tech show TBPN. The controversy has raised concerns on the growing trend of 'overemployment' where people take multiple remote jobs without disclosing them. It has also raised concerns over the hiring culture, especially among the tech startups, that hire people without adequate background checks.

Can Hackers Take Over Your Brain? Neuroscience Reveals The Disturbing Truth

Neuroscience suggests that while the idea of "hacking" the human brain sounds like sci-fi, emerging brain-computer interface (BCI) technology introduces real vulnerabilities. According to a report by University of Maryland Global Campus, BCIs, whether invasive implants or noninvasive wearable sensors, translate neural signals into digital commands, enabling applications from prosthetic control to gaming. According to a study by Cornell University, security concerns are multifaceted. First, hackers could intercept neural data streams, essentially reading thoughts transmitted from brain to device. Researchers have demonstrated "backdoor" attacks on EEG-based BCIs: tiny perturbations injected into brainwave-analysis algorithms can alter outcomes, from benign coaching tools to critical medical diagnostics. Second, the integrity of neural signals can be compromised, manipulated, or spoofed, potentially influencing emotions, decisions, or behaviour. In extreme cases, implanted deep-brain stimulators (used for Parkinson's) can be hacked to alter brain function directly. Third, neuroprivacy is at stake. Neural data may reveal sensitive medical conditions or private thoughts; unauthorised access would violate what ethicists call "cognitive liberty". According to a report by TIME, while brain transparency isn't imminent, we're quickly moving toward a future where scientists, governments, and corporations could potentially access our thoughts and mental states. In response to this emerging reality, experts emphasize the urgent need to establish the right to 'cognitive liberty' a modern extension of personal freedom. This right would ensure individuals maintain control over their own minds, safeguarding mental privacy, freedom of thought, and autonomy in the digital age. However, widespread "mind control" remains speculative. No verified cases of neuroweapon attacks (such as Havana Syndrome) exist; current BCI systems lack the precision or capability to rewrite memories or override free will, according to UNESCO Courier. In response, the field of neurosecurity is emerging. It applies cybersecurity principles, encryption, secure protocols, and threat models to protect neural devices and safeguard user autonomy. As BCIs advance-from experimental medical tools to consumer wearables-ethical frameworks and robust regulations must evolve alongside them. Ultimately, the brain can be hacked-if connected to machines. But with vigilant security measures and ethical oversight, neuroscience offers hope that our minds remain our own.

At Just 19, Barron Trump Earns $40 Million In 10 Months Through Crypto Venture: Report

Last Updated: Barron Trump, the youngest son of US President Donald Trump, has reportedly earned nearly $40 million from the family's cryptocurrency venture. Barron Trump, the youngest son of US President Donald Trump has reportedly earned around $40 million from the cryptocurrency venture, launched by his father. As per the report by Forbes, 19-year-old Barron Trump, who got around $25 million in his pocket after taxes, earned the whole sum amount through digital token firm, World Liberty Financial, launched by President Trump in September 2024. While the POTUS admitted he was still learning the new tech, he said that Barron was already ahead of the game. 'Barron knows so much about this. He's a young guy, but he knows it—he talks about his wallet. He's got four wallets or something, and I'm saying, 'What is a wallet?'" Trump had said in an interview at that time, as per the report. Reportedly, the President himself is estimated to have made around $1 billion through crypto-related activities. As per the Forbes, World Liberty Financial in March this year announced that it sold at least $550 million worth of tokens. After the first $30 million was set aside, the remaining funds appear to have flowed directly to the owners of the venture. The report further cited recent financial disclosure filed with the US Office of Government Ethics which revealed that Donald Trump earned $57 million from the sales. The document also stated that Trump family holds a 75% stake in the umbrella company DT Marks Defi LLC, with the remaining 25% owned by undisclosed third parties. He personally owns 52.5% of the company, while other unnamed family members own an additional 22.5%. Barron is listed as a co-founder of World Liberty Financial, alongside his father, Donald Trump Jr, and Eric Trump. Forbes estimated that Barron likely holds a 7.5% stake in the Delaware-based firm. Barron was also named a 'web3 ambassador" for the project alongside his older brothers. Reportedly, a partial sale of the company took place in early 2025, after the most recent financial disclosures, so it's possible Barron's actual earnings have changed since. Barron, who was nine when his father announced his 2016 presidential campaign, moved into the White House at age 11 in January 2017. He enrolled at NYU's Stern School of Business in September 2024. He previously attended elite private schools like St. Andrew's in Maryland and Oxbridge Academy in Florida.
