Elon Musk Confirms X Was Hit by a ‘Massive Cyberattack’

March 11, 2025

Highlights

Elon Musk confirmed that X experienced a massive cyberattack causing an eight-hour outage.
Musk suggested the attack might involve a large and coordinated group, mentioning IP addresses in the Ukraine area.
The X outage began at 5:30 a.m. ET with intermittent access restored by 1:30 p.m. ET.

Thousands of users were unable to access X (formerly Twitter) on Monday morning, with outages reported across the U.S. After nearly eight hours of disruption, Elon Musk claimed that the platform was under a “massive cyberattack.” Here’s what we know so far.

Musk’s Statement on the Outage

“There was (still is) a massive cyberattack against 𝕏. We get attacked every day, but this was done with a lot of resources. Either a large, coordinated group and/or a country is involved. Tracing …,” Musk wrote on X.

In a live Fox News interview on Monday, Musk also claimed that the attack appeared to originate from IP addresses in the Ukraine area. However, there is no concrete evidence yet to support his claims beyond his statements.

Musk has been more prominent since the start of President Donald Trump’s second administration. His leadership has been marked by abrupt budget cuts to government funding, job programs and international aid. His growing influence has also sparked protests at Tesla stores, with Tesla’s stock taking a hit as well.

Given Musk’s high-profile status, it wouldn’t be surprising if X was targeted by cyberattacks. However, without further verification, his claim remains unconfirmed.

How The X Outage Unfolded?

According to Downdetector, which tracks website outages, X first went down for some users at 5:30 a.m. ET, with over 20,000 reports of issues. While service was partially restored after an hour, a second wave of outages hit around 9:30 a.m. ET, with over 40,000 reports of users unable to access the platform.

Some users were able to log in intermittently, but problems persisted until 1:30 p.m. ET.

For a platform of this size, occasional outages are common, but they’re never convenient. One frustrated user on Downdetector summed it up best, “On day 1 of the NFL free agency!? ELON Fix this.”

FAQs

Q1. What caused the recent outage on X (formerly Twitter)?

Answer. Elon Musk confirmed that X (formerly Twitter) experienced a massive cyberattack, causing an eight-hour outage and affecting thousands of users across the U.S.

Q2. Who does Elon Musk believe might be behind the cyberattack on X?

Answer. Musk suggested that the attack might involve a large, coordinated group and/or a country, mentioning IP addresses in the Ukraine area, though no concrete evidence supports his claims.

Q3. How long did the X outage last?

Answer. The X outage began at 5:30 a.m. ET with intermittent access restored by 1:30 p.m. ET.

Q4. How many X users were affected by the recent cyberattack?

Answer. More than 40,000 reports of users unable to access the platform during the peak of the outage.

GTA 6 Trailer 2 Release Date Leaked But Is It an April Fool’s Joke?

Team My Mobile

March 11, 2025

Highlights

Rumors suggest that the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 could be released on April 1.
However, fans have been speculating that the rumour might just be an April Fool’s prank.
The speculation started with a post on ‘GTA 6 Alerts’ and is backed by a pattern noticed in Rockstar’s past game marketing campaigns.
A T-shirt in GTA Online with the date 040125 (April 1, 2025) and the name “One Day Will Reveal All” has further fueled rumours.

Fans have been eagerly waiting for the second trailer of Grand Theft Auto 6, but it’s been a long wait with no official update. Even though people are still dissecting the first trailer, the excitement for a new look at Leonida and Vice City is at an all-time high.

Now, rumors suggest that the next trailer could drop on April 1, but the question is if this is a real leak or just an April Fool’s prank?

The speculation started with a post on ‘GTA 6 Alerts’ on X (formerly Twitter), which pointed to an April 1 release date. This theory was originally suggested by the popular GTA VI O’Clock show, and the new leak has only added fuel to the fire.

Looking at Rockstar’s past games, GTA VI O’Clock noticed a pattern: both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 had five- to six-month marketing campaigns before launch. If GTA 6 is set to release in Fall 2025, the second trailer dropping in April 2025 would align with that timeline.

Another reason fans are convinced about the April 1 release is a T-shirt in GTA Online. This shirt accurately predicted the release date of the first trailer and has several other dates printed on it, including 040125 (April 1, 2025).

Even more interesting is the T-shirt’s name: “One Day Will Reveal All,” which sounds like a major hint at a big announcement. If Rockstar is teasing something, April 1 could be the big day.

Since April 1 is April Fool’s Day, some fans think this could just be a prank. But if Rockstar actually drops the trailer that day, it would be a hilarious way to surprise the community. Imagine the reaction: “Trailer 2 is out!”

A Daily Star report also suggested that an April release date isn’t far-fetched, adding some credibility to the leak.

What to Expect in GTA 6 Trailer 2?

The first trailer introduced us to Lucia and Jason, the main characters, hinting at a possible romantic relationship between them.

GTA 6 is set in Vice City, Rockstar’s reimagined version of Miami, and fans are hoping that Trailer 2 will reveal more about Lucia and Jason’s dynamic and how their story unfolds in the game.

FAQs

Q1. When is the rumored release date for the second GTA 6 trailer?

Answer. Rumours suggest that the second trailer for Grand Theft Auto 6 could be released on April 1, though there is speculation it might be an April Fool’s prank.

Q2. What pattern in Rockstar’s past game marketing campaigns hints April 1 trailer release date?

Answer. GTA VI O’Clock noticed a pattern in Rockstar’s past games: both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 had five- to six-month marketing campaigns before launch. If GTA 6 is set to release in Fall 2025, the second trailer dropping in April 2025 would align with that timeline.

Q3. What in-game item has fueled rumors about the second GTA 6 trailer release date?

Answer. A T-shirt in GTA Online with the date 040125 (April 1, 2025) and the name “One Day Will Reveal All” has further fueled rumors, suggesting a major announcement on that date.

OnePlus Will Soon Replace Alert Slider with a Customisable Button

Team My Mobile

March 11, 2025

Highlights

OnePlus is replacing the Alert Slider with a new customisable button.
It will offer more functionality, allowing quick sound profile switches and additional personalised functions.
The decision follows three years of internal discussions and user feedback.
OnePlus believes this change will improve device layouts and overall design, while still maintaining essential features.

OnePlus is making a big change to one of its most recognisable features. In a recent community post, OnePlus CEO Pete Lau confirmed that the Alert Slider will be replaced with a new customisable button that offers more functionality.

The Alert Slider is loved for its simplicity in switching between sound profiles and has been a signature OnePlus feature for years. It even made its way to some OPPO devices. However, OnePlus felt that its fixed hardware design limited its potential.

“As much as I love the Alert Slider, I kept asking myself the same question. How can it do more?” Pete Lau shared, explaining the need for an upgrade.

OnePlus didn’t take this decision lightly. After the OnePlus 10T launched without an Alert Slider, the company received strong feedback from users, showing just how important the feature was. This led to three years of internal discussions and development.

The biggest drawback of the Alert Slider was its hardware-locked functionality. Its physical positions meant no room for software-based customization. OnePlus saw this as a chance to offer something better:

“The Solution? A Smarter, Customisable Button,” the company announced.

“Imagine a button that adapts to you. Whether you’re a power user or prefer simplicity, this button works for you, not the other way around. Wherever life takes you, it seamlessly fits your lifestyle. It’s an innovation that is not just smart but intuitively yours. This change allows us to better utilize the device’s space, explore new layouts, and make structural improvements while keeping performance top-notch,” reads OnePlus community post.

This new button will still allow users to quickly switch sound profiles, something OnePlus calls a “non-negotiable” feature. But it will also offer more personalized functions, making it much more versatile than the previous Alert Slider.

OnePlus is inviting user feedback on how this new button should work, making it clear that this isn’t just a replacement but an evolution. The company believes this change will free up internal space, allow for better device layouts, and improve the overall design of future OnePlus phones.

While OnePlus understands the emotional connection users have with the Alert Slider, they are confident this new button will bring even greater convenience and customisation.

FAQs

Q1. What significant change is OnePlus making to its phones?

Answer. OnePlus is replacing the Alert Slider with a new customisable button that offers more functionality, allowing quick sound profile switches and additional personalised functions.

Q2. Why is OnePlus replacing the Alert Slider with a customisable button?

Answer. The decision follows three years of internal discussions and user feedback, highlighting the limitations of the hardware-locked Alert Slider and the need for software-based customisation. OnePlus sees this as a chance to offer something better and more versatile.

Q3. How will the new customisable button benefit future OnePlus phones?

Answer. OnePlus believes this change will improve device layouts and overall design while maintaining essential features and enhancing convenience and customisation. The new button will free up internal space and offer more personalised functions.

Apple’s 18.8-Inch Foldable Prototype Features In-Display Face ID, Not Sure If It’s iPad or MacBook Prototype; M4 MacBook Air Gets Dual Display Support

Highlights

Apple is rumoured to be working on an 18.8-inch foldable device with in-display Face ID.
It is still uncertain if it will be an iPad Pro or a MacBook.
The M4 MacBook Air restores dual external display support without trade-offs.

Apple has been rumored to be working on an 18.8-inch foldable device for some time now, and a new leak suggests that a prototype exists with Face ID embedded beneath the display. While reports agree on the display size, there’s still uncertainty about whether this device will be an iPad Pro or a MacBook.

The first hint of Apple’s interest in a large foldable display came from display analyst Ross Young, who mentioned a 20.x-inch MacBook display. Young wrote, “We are now showing Apple in our roadmap for foldable notebooks. We hear there is interest at the largest size yet, around 20.x. This size could create a new category for Apple and would result in a true dual use product, a notebook with a full-size keyboard when folded and for use as a monitor when not folded and used with an external keyboard.”

Later, analyst Ming-Chi Kuo found supply chain evidence of a 20.3-inch folding display, also for a MacBook. Kuo later revised his findings, suggesting Apple was now considering a smaller 18.8-inch version. Young later backed this claim, citing an exact measurement of 18.76 inches, which Apple would round up to 18.8 inches.

A third speculation came from tipster Jeff Pu, who confirmed the 18.8-inch display but noted that it was unclear whether the device would be an iPad or a MacBook.

Apple Foldable Prototype With In-Display Face ID

Now, leaker Digital Chat Station, who previously shared accurate leaks about the iPhone 16 Pro’s telephoto lens, claims Apple has developed a prototype of this foldable device with Face ID technology built into the display.

DCS wrote, “Guoguo also has a Foldable iPad Pro, an engineering machine with an 18.8-inch screen, using a metal superstructured lens, mainly integrating Face ID Rx and Tx for under-screen 3D face recognition.”

Apple has held patents for this tech for years, and recent reports suggest the company has solved the biggest challenges associated with embedding Face ID beneath the screen.

A Foldable iPad or a MacBook With a Virtual Keyboard?

At first glance, an all-display device seems more like an iPad Pro, but Apple has patents for an all-screen MacBook with a soft keyboard. If Apple goes this route, it would need to tackle three major challenges, which include making a virtual keyboard comfortable to use, simulating the tactile feel of physical keys and ensuring compatibility with touch-typing.

Apple has been exploring solutions to these issues since at least 2018, but implementing them in a practical way remains uncertain.

Some speculate that Apple might be working on a hybrid device capable of running both macOS and iPadOS, but Apple has consistently maintained that MacBooks and iPads serve different purposes.

Until more details emerge, the 18.8-inch foldable remains an intriguing mystery, whether it ends up as a next-gen iPad Pro or a bold new take on the MacBook.

M4 MacBook Air Finally Matches Intel Model’s Dual Display Support

Meanwhile, Intel MacBook Air users who wanted to upgrade to an Apple silicon model can now do that without sacrificing the key dual external display support.

The M4 MacBook Air arrives on March 12, bringing a fresh sky blue colour and a slightly tweaked mute key icon (if that’s your thing). While the design has remained largely the same since the M2 version, the biggest improvement comes in display capabilities.

When Apple transitioned from Intel to M1 and M2 chips, MacBook Air users lost the ability to connect two external displays. The first two generations of Apple silicon MacBook Airs were limited to just one external monitor unless users relied on unofficial workarounds.

The M3 MacBook Air improved things slightly by allowing dual external display support, but only with the lid closed.

Now, with the M4 MacBook Air, Apple has fully restored dual display support while keeping the built-in display active at the same time. That means users can finally connect two external monitors without making trade-offs.

For those still considering an earlier M-series MacBook Air, this is a big deal. Eventually, as older models phase out, all new MacBook Air models will match the external display capabilities of the 2020 Intel version.

FAQs

Q1. What is the rumored size and display technology for Apple’s foldable device prototype?

Answer. Apple is rumored to be working on an 18.8-inch foldable device with Face ID embedded beneath the display. While the display size is confirmed, there is still uncertainty about whether the device will be an iPad Pro or a MacBook.

Q2. Who provided insights and confirmations about the display size of Apple’s foldable device?

Answer. Display analysts Ross Young and Ming-Chi Kuo, along with tipster Jeff Pu, have provided insights on the device size. Young mentioned a 20.x-inch display, later confirmed to be 18.8 inches. Kuo found supply chain evidence of a folding display and later revised it to 18.8 inches, which Pu also confirmed.

Q3. What improvements does the M4 MacBook Air bring compared to earlier models?

Answer. The M4 MacBook Air restores dual external display support without trade-offs while keeping the built-in display active. It also brings a fresh sky blue colour and a slightly tweaked mute key icon. This improvement is significant for those considering an upgrade from earlier M-series models.

iPhone 17 3D-Printed Design Mockups Offer a Fresh Look At The Next iPhone Lineup

Team My Mobile

March 11, 2025

Highlights

Leaker Majin Bu and YouTube channel iDeviceHelp recently shared 3D-printed mockups of the iPhone 17 series.
The mockups highlight design changes including the Air model being significantly thinner with a single camera and Pro models having an extended raised camera module.
The standard iPhone 17 has minimal design changes, while Pro models might be slightly thicker to accommodate larger batteries.

Apple is expected to launch four models this year, with a key change, the Plus variant is reportedly being replaced by a new, slimmer “Air” model. Leaker Majin Bu initially shared CAD drawings of the iPhone 17 series, and now, in collaboration with the YouTube channel iDeviceHelp, 3D-printed mockups have been created to showcase these designs.

The rumored lineup includes –

iPhone 17 – Two cameras
iPhone 17 Air – Slimmer design, single camera
iPhone 17 Pro – Three cameras
iPhone 17 Pro Max – Three cameras

The new video featuring 3D-printed mockups created based on measurements from internal documents gives us a closer look at the expected design of the iPhone 17 lineup. By now, multiple leaks have painted a consistent picture of what Apple’s next-generation iPhones might look like, and these physical models help bring those leaks to life.

Check out the video –

The video features three models, as the Pro and Pro Max are expected to have identical designs apart from size differences.

Among the four models, the standard iPhone 17 appears to have the least noticeable design changes. iDeviceHelp states in the video, “Everything is basically identical this time around with the entry-level iPhone 17, from the volume up and down to the Action button. We also have, on the other side, the camera controls [and] the side button for Siri […] Even the dimensions look the same.”

The iPhone 17 Air is expected to be significantly thinner than any other model in the lineup, designed for those who prioritise sleekness over extra features. It will feature a single camera housed in a new horizontal bar.

Explaining the details in the video, iDevice help says, “This iPhone is razor thin, guys, this is crazy! Take a look at this: the buttons are almost as thick as the actual phone [and] the USB-C port is almost as thick as the iPhone itself […] We have an entirely new camera module on the back which reminds me a lot of the Google Pixel camera […] Let’s go ahead and measure the depth of this design and let’s go ahead and place it right there and see – wow right there it is 0.22 inches. This is going to be the thinnest iPhone ever. Now, one thing to note is that this iPhone phone is so thin I think MagSafe will not be available on this device.”

The Pro models will retain the familiar triple-camera setup in a triangular arrangement, but a major design shift is expected. The raised camera module is rumored to extend across almost the full width of the phone.

According to CAD measurements, both Pro models might be slightly thicker this year. A new report from Weibo suggests that this added thickness is to accommodate a larger battery.

It’s worth noting that these 3D-printed models are basic representations and don’t reflect the actual materials or finishes of the final devices. They provide a good sense of the overall shape and design but not the finer details.
