Microsoft has reportedly canceled its internal project for a portable Xbox console, shifting focus to refining its Xbox software platform and collaborating with partners like ASUS. While earlier rumors suggested the project was only delayed, recent reports indicate it's now effectively abandoned. This move is likely in response to competition from SteamOS, which offers better gaming performance on portables than Windows. However, some sources suggest Microsoft may still create such a handheld console in the future, much like the ASUS ROG Xbox Ally — toward PC-style gaming rather than focusing on native Xbox titles. Microsoft has not officially commented on the rumors.

BREAKING: Trump Phone Launched as the Most MAGA Device Ever Made

US President Donald Trump and his family's Trump Organization launched a smartphone named Trump T1 Phone, which is proudly "Made in America" as a part of MAGA. His sons Donald Jr. and Eric Trump unveiled it in a press conference at Trump Tower.

It’s as MAGA as a you can think of because there are numerous errors on the page of Trump T1 Phone specifications. The processor section does not list a processor, RAM is described as storage, and Trump T1 boast of a “5000mAh long life camera,” when it means the battery. Even the smartphone seems like photoshopped image of a brushed gold phone with a “T1” logo and US flag on the back, just for MAGA.

Model: T1 Phone 8002 (gold version)
• 6.78” AMOLED Display
• 120Hz Refresh rate
• 12GB RAM; 256 storage
• SD Card Slot
• 50MP (main) + 2MP useless + 2MP useless
• 16MP selfie camera
• Fingerprint sensor
• 5000mah battery; 20W charging
• 3.5mm headphone jack; USB-C 2.0
• Runs Android 15

The Trump family also announced the launch of Trump Mobile, a 5G mobile service featuring an unlimited plan priced at $47.45 per month. It’s “powered by Liberty Mobile,” a freedom-themed mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) that uses the T-Mobile network. Trump Mobile calls it “a sleek, gold smartphone engineered for performance and proudly designed and built in the United States. “Trump Mobile is going to revolutionize cellphones, mobile calling,” says Eric Trump.

Trump T1 Phone is priced at 500$ and is available to preorder now with a $100 deposit. Shipping starts from August or September 2025.

Phone 3 with UFS 4.0 Could Expose Nothing's Hypocrisy

With the launch of Phone 3a series, Nothing yapped with their justification on offering UFS 2.2 instead of faster UFS 3.1 or UFS 4.0

Choosing UFS 2.2 for the Phone (3a) series wasn’t about cutting costs, but about putting resources where they matter most

"Not about cutting costs": This is highly questionable as UFS 2.2 is undeniably cheaper than UFS 3.1 or UFS 4.0.

but in everyday use, its benefits are often marginal compared to optimisations in software, battery life, and display quality.

While trivial tasks might not show massive differences, the cumulative effect of slightly slower operations across an entire day adds up to a less snappy and responsive experience. For eg: especially while gaming, installing apps, boot times, multitasking, recording in 4K etc.

The Phone (3a) series uses NTFS optimisation to process files more efficiently..." and "Smart Clean technology... reogranises stored data to boost read and write speeds."

All Android OEMs do speed optimizations & this ain't any magic bullets that can fundamentally bridge the hardware gap between UFS 2.2 and faster UFS 3.1.

Gaming Performance: Frame rates and smooth gameplay don’t rely on storage speed alone... Through efficient data management and Nothing OS optimisations, the Phone (3a) series ensures stable performance in games like BGMI and Genshin Impact, delivering a smooth experience comparable to devices with UFS 3.1 storage."

Gaming absolutely relies on storage speed, especially random read/write. Games are constantly loading textures, levels, character models, and other assets from storage. Slower storage also means noticeable stutters while gaming.

"Addressing the Future-Proofing Question... even today, UFS 2.2 is more than capable of handling everything a smartphone is expected to do."

This is very subjective.

If Nothing fans and the company really thinks UFS 2.2 can be justified, then the Phone 3 should come with UFS 2.2 as well.

Xiaomi UBL 2025: A Ridiculous Circus You Signed Up For

Xiaomi's Bootloader unlocking rules in China is insane!
In December 2024, Xiaomi announced changes to the bootloader (BL) unlocking application rules in China. As of January 1, 2025, users with BL permissions can unlock only 1 bound device over their permission’s validity. This is a major decrease from up to 3 bound devices previously allowed.

Then in January 2025, Xiaomi again updated the rules, mainly adding2 new contents:
1) Answering questions/ registering/ applying/ binding/ unlocking/ using an unlocked device, etc. all need to be done on the same device.
2) Complete the binding and unlocking operations within 14 days after obtaining the qualification.

The Xiaomi Community app is needed to obtain UBL applications and to apply for that:
1) Pass the Unlocking Qualification QUIZ which contains 15 questions
2) Reach the 5th level of Xiaomi community growth
3) Complete REAL NAME Authentication
The opening hours for the quiz are not fixed, and each participation must be separated by 7 days.

Then in February 2025, Xiaomi added the qualification review instructions, which takes normally 1-7 days for Xiaomi to complete the review. Xiaomi checks for:
1) The Mi account is at least 6 months old.
2) Users must have a 6 months record in the Xiaomi Community with NO bans, warnings, or account suspensions.
3) No recent security-sensitive changes (phone number, email, security settings) to the Xiaomi account
4) Changes in the device used or the IP location in the past 6 months (IP changes under reasonable use not affected)

If the user actively withdraws from the unlocking application project, the qualification expires and is not used, etc, the user will not be able to pass the qualification review again.

Then in April 2025, they again updated the UBL application FAQ:
1) Any use of scripts or other improper means to obtain growth points in the Xiaomi community
2) Any violations during the answering of questions or registration process
3) Any use of unofficial answering methods for Quiz etc.

Even if the user meets the unlocking application conditions but maliciously slanders, abuses, or spreads rumors about Xiaomi on any social media app or use AI generated answer for application reason or copy-paste Quiz answers, the application will not be approved.

If a user is found or suspected that the operation is performed by someone other than the Xiaomi account’s real-name authenticated person or unlocking device was done for someone else, the unlocking qualification is used for non-personal or unauthorized devices, the Xiaomi account information is abnormally changed after unlocking, or any other violation of the Xiaomi account user agreement occurs, the account will be permanently banned and relevant LEGAL responsibilities will be pursued depending on the circumstances.

At This Point, Just Say Bootloader Unlocking Is Banned, Xiaomi.
Instead of calling it “unlocking,” just rename it to “Xiaomi Loyalty Gauntlet 2025” and be done with it.
