Anker has ditched the battery supplier linked to over a million fire-prone power banks.
ATL's a big name because it supplies Apple and Samsung, but it's not a sure bet: switching exclusively to ATL batteries wasn't enough to keep Samsung from recalling every single Galaxy Note 7.

Forget Galaxy Watch 8 — Samsung's best smartwatches are up to 38% off before Prime Day
Forget the rumored Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, two of Samsung's best smartwatch models are available now for impressively low prices as part of early Prime Day savings. I'm speaking, of course, of the Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra. The Galaxy Watch 7 (40mm) is just $209 at Amazon, marked down from $299, and the 44mm model is only $259, reduced from $329. That's not all, though. The rugged and long-lasting Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra is $399 at Amazon, dropping from $649. (For more deals, check out our early Prime Day deals live blog). The Galaxy Watch 7 is one of the most comfortable full-featured smartwatches I've tested. Feature-wise, it's on par with the Google Pixel Watch 3 and Apple Watch Series 10; however, I prefer Samsung's wellness insights — especially the sleep reports — to Apple's or Google's. We're less than a week out from the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event, where we'll probably catch our first glimpse at the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, which means... now is a great time to score a Galaxy Watch 7 or Ultra for less! While the next-gen devices will surely have some cool new features, the Galaxy Watch 7 remains a supremely capable and impressive smartwatch, and one I'll likely continue to recommend even after the introduction of the Galaxy Watch 8, especially if it stays cheap. In 2025, the Galaxy Watch 7 is not only one of my favorite Android-friendly smartwatches, but it's also the best smartwatch for sleep tracking. Available in your choice of 40mm or 45mm — both size options are on sale — it offers impressive AI-backed holistic insights, reliable workout tracking and safety tools, lots of useful native and third-party apps, and a seriously easy-wearing design. The Galaxy Watch Ultra is the longest-lasting, toughest-built smartwatch for Android you can buy today. If you're a fan of large screens, titanium cases, customizable buttons and class-leading, AI-backed wellness tools, this is the smartwatch for you. The Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra, meanwhile, offers all the same features and holistic tools as the Galaxy Watch 7, but in a substantially larger, all-titanium case with 100 meters of water resistance (versus 50mm for the Watch 7) and double the battery life: up to three days in low power mode. Think of it as the Android equivalent of the Apple Watch Ultra series, with the same tough-as-nails, anything-goes disposition.

Nothing launches its most expensive flagship yet, Phone (3)
Nothing on Tuesday launched its newest flagship phone after a two-year gap. At an event in London, the company unveiled the Phone (3), which starts at $799 and aims to take on bigwigs like Samsung and Apple with its differentiated design and features targeting tech enthusiasts. Since releasing Phone (1) in 2022, the GV-backed startup has relied on a transparent design to make its phone stand out from others. The Phone (3) follows that same design language, but it introduces a stranger camera arrangement that forgoes the typical square or circular alignment found on other smartphone devices. (If you are someone who gets triggered by unaligned elements on websites or apps, this camera arrangement might make you mad!) Nothing has also favored arranging LEDs on its back — a feature that it calls Glyph. This was always somewhat gimmicky, but the company made use of this to show you different alerts and notifications using the LED lights. Now, the company is replacing Glyph with a small circular mini LED screen, called Glyph Matrix, on the back of the device at the top right. This addition displays 16-bit styled patterns, which can offer more information than the earlier Glyph arrangement. The company is also releasing mini-apps for this interface, such as spin the bottle and rock, paper, scissors. It is 2025, so the phone has to include some AI-powered features, too. At launch this includes two features called Essential Space and Essential Search. The company first debuted Essential Space, an app to save screenshots and take notes, on the Nothing Phone 3a Pro. Now, Nothing is upgrading this app to let you record meetings and view an AI transcription and summary. To use the feature, you'll have to press the Essential key and place the phone with the screen side down to start the recording. While this sounds potentially useful, Nothing doesn't have a web interface to access these transcriptions and summaries at this time. Nothing is also debuting Essential Search — a feature like the iPhone's Spotlight search — and infusing it with AI. This search feature allows you to search for settings, files, or photos on your phone by typing in keywords. Plus, you can type in natural language queries to get web results by pressing a button next to the search bar. This is similar to iPhone's upgraded Siri interface, which is integrated with ChatGPT. The new smartphone has comparable specifications to other companies' Android flagships. This includes a 6.67-inch AMOLED screen with 1.5K resolution, which is protected by Gorilla Glass 7i. The device is powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 processor, built on a 4-nanometer architecture. The trio of cameras all have a 50-megapixel resolution, but play different roles. The main camera has a 1.3-inch sensor, which is 20% bigger than Phone (2), at a f/1.68 aperture; the periscope telephoto lens offers 3x optical zoom, and 60x digital zoom with AI Super Res Zoom; and the ultra-wide lens provides a 114-degree field of view. Nothing is also upgrading the selfie camera from 32 megapixels to 50 megapixels. The Phone (3) has a 5150 mAh battery (5,500 mAh in its India variant) with support for 65W wired charging and 15W wireless charging. The company said the phone will ship with Nothing OS 3.5, which is based on Android 15, and will be updated to Nothing OS 4.0, based on Android 16, later this year. It noted that the flagship device will get five years of software updates and seven years of security updates. The company will sell the 256GB model of the Phone (3) for $799 and the 512GB model for $899. At this price, the phone directly competes with the Samsung Galaxy S25, which was released at a base price of $799 earlier this year. Pre-orders for the device begin on July 4 with general availability on July 15. As TechCrunch reported last month, Nothing is making the Phone (3) available in the U.S. generally through its own website and Amazon. This is the second device, after Phone (2) the company is making widely available. Its other budget devices were available only through a restrictive beta program.
