WhatsApp's Scam Alert feature is now available to beta users on Android

Back in June, we learned that WhatsApp was developing a Scam Alert feature, which Meta officially detailed over two weeks ago. While WhatsApp hasn't yet revealed exactly when the Scam Alert feature will roll out to everyone, the public release shouldn't be far off, as it's now available to some Android users enrolled in WhatsApp's beta program. This revelation comes from the folks at WABetaInfo, who discovered this development on beta version 2.26.34.1 of WhatsApp for Android. As the name suggests, Scam Alert will warn users if an incoming message from an unknown sender appears to be a...

Motorola's Razr Fold is finally on its way to Verizon

Motorola launched the Razr Fold in the US in late May, when the company announced that it would be available for purchase at T-Mobile and Verizon. T-Mobile got it right there and then, but Verizon has still not released the phone. [#InlinePriceWidget,14402,1#] Now we know why. The FCC has only just certified a version of the Razr Fold that comes with mmWave 5G support, and Verizon has the most extensive mmWave 5G coverage in the US, so you can see where this is going. Now that this model is finally certified, it could become available in the next few weeks. Unfortunately, Verizon...

Samsung Galaxy S26 FE in for review

The Galaxy FE models have always enjoyed the attention of loyal and savvy Galaxy fans, but Samsung may be cutting it a bit too close with the Galaxy S26 FE. We called it the "Galaxy S26 AI and the Galaxy S25 FE Part 2 in our announcement news, and we still stand by that. To start with, the Galaxy S26 FE is nearly identical, spec-for-spec, with its predecessor. The major aspects of the phone are the same: the same 6.7-inch screen, triple camera system, battery and charging, and overall feel in the hand. Well, okay, the S26 FE has a camera island, whereas the older phone's camera system...

Motorola teases a new Swarovski-encrusted Razr, here's when it's launching

Motorola launched blinged-up Swarovski-encrusted versions of the Razr 60 and Edge 70 last year, then followed up with the Signature a few months ago, and now it's almost ready to unveil another one. The company is currently teasing a new Swarovski edition, which it will make official during IFA in Berlin in early September. The quick teaser video posted by Motorola on X shows the back of a Razr, so we're probably talking about the Razr 70, since the Razr 60 was the one to get its Swarovski edition last year. Sparkling brilliance ✨Coming soon. #IFA2026 pic.twitter.com/DDtG9YgKUv—...
