Motorola appears to be preparing another style-focused smartphone, keeping up the Motorola Swarovski special edition tradition.

The leak comes from well-known tipster Evan Blass @evleaks on X (formerly Twitter), who shared a marketing poster of the upcoming special edition model. The poster shows the device in a Pantone “Cloud Dancer” finish, a soft, creamy white shade expected to be Pantone’s official Colour of the Year for 2026.

The back panel features vegan leather studded with 14 real Swarovski crystals, while the frame includes a “PANTONE Cloud Dancer” engraving. The design reinforces its premium, fashion-centric appeal.

This model will mark Motorola’s second Swarovski-inspired product this year, following the Razr 60 special edition and its matching crystal-themed earbuds.

Although pricing details remain under wraps, the lavish exterior puts it firmly in the collectable category.

For context, the regular Motorola Edge 70 starts at around €799 in Europe.

ChatGPT May Soon Include Ads, But iPhone Users Have a Built-In Way to Avoid Them

Highlights

  • Evidence from ChatGPT’s Android beta app code suggests ads may soon be integrated with references to “search ads” and “ad carousel.”
  • The move comes amid OpenAI’s financial strain despite $4.3B revenue in H1 2025 as it posted a $13.5B net loss.
  • iPhone users can still access ad-free ChatGPT via Siri integration without signing in.

If you are a regular ChatGPT user, this update is for your interest. It appears the ad-free experience on ChatGPT may soon change. Fresh evidence suggests OpenAI is preparing to introduce advertisements to its widely used AI platform. Here’s what we know so far.

ChatGPT Ads On The Way

Hints of ads in ChatGPT surfaced when a user examined the code of the latest ChatGPT Android beta app (version 1.2025.32). Inside the code, several references to “openai.feature.ads” were discovered, alongside terms such as “search ad,” “search ads carousel,” and “ad target,” strongly indicating that ad integration is in development.

The possibility of ads on ChatGPT isn’t entirely unexpected.

In the first episode of the OpenAI podcast earlier this year, CEO Sam Altman openly discussed the idea and said, “I’m not totally against it,” and even noting that “I can point to areas where I like ads.” He mentioned enjoying certain Instagram ads, though he acknowledged that creating good ad experiences is difficult. This stance contrasts with his comments at Harvard last year, when he said he “hated ads” and considered them “a last resort” for OpenAI products.

The timing is notable as OpenAI’s financial performance has come under scrutiny. A recent report from The Information revealed that while the company generated $4.3 billion in revenue during the first half of 2025, it still posted a net loss of $13.5 billion, fuelling speculation about why ads may now be on the table.

It remains unclear how ads might appear in ChatGPT responses. There are open questions about whether ads will show up universally or only during purchase-related queries like asking for recommendations on home appliances. As Altman has previously warned, ad-powered answers could leave users wondering “who paid to influence those answers,” potentially damaging trust in the platform.

OpenAI has not officially commented on the development. However, the presence of ad-related code in the app strongly suggests that ad-supported ChatGPT experiences may not be far off.

How iPhone Users Can Use ChatGPT Without Ads?

For now, there is a workaround to keep using ChatGPT without encountering advertisements.

Over a year ago, Apple partnered with OpenAI to integrate ChatGPT across iOS, iPadOS and macOS. According to multiple reports, this integration does not use queries for model training and does not display ads as long as you use ChatGPT without signing in to an account.

In practical terms, this means that when Siri hands off a question it cannot answer to ChatGPT, users can still access an ad-free version of the AI.

FAQs

Q1. Is ChatGPT planning to introduce ads?

Answer. Yes. Code found in the latest ChatGPT Android beta app revealed references to “openai.feature.ads,” “search ad,” and “ads carousel,” strongly suggesting ad integration is in development.

Q2. Why might OpenAI add ads to ChatGPT?

Answer. Despite earning $4.3 billion in revenue in the first half of 2025, OpenAI reported a net loss of $13.5 billion, fuelling speculation that ads could help improve financial performance.

Q3. How can iPhone users avoid ads in ChatGPT?

Answer. iPhone users can access ChatGPT ad‑free through Apple’s Siri integration without signing in, since Apple’s partnership ensures no ads or model training in this mode.

India Mandates Non-Removable Government Cybersecurity App ‘Sanchar Saathi’ on All Smartphones

Highlights

  • India has mandated smartphone makers to preload the government’s Sanchar Saathi cybersecurity app on all new devices within 90 days.
  • The app will be non-removable and also rolled out via updates to existing phones.
  • It helps users block, locate, and track stolen phones, detect fraudulent mobile connections and has already recovered 700,000 devices.

India’s telecom ministry has issued a new directive requiring smartphone makers to preload a government-backed cybersecurity app on all upcoming devices. The move, aimed at fighting rising cybercrime, is expected to spark resistance from Apple. Meanwhile, privacy advocates have raised concerns due to its mandatory and non-removable nature.

India Mandates Sanchar Saathi App

According to a government announcement dated November 28, major smartphone brands including Apple, Samsung, Vivo, Oppo and Xiaomi must ensure the Sanchar Saathi app comes pre-installed on every new handset sold in India. Companies have been given 90 days to comply and users will not be allowed to disable or delete the app.

For phones already in the supply chain, the ministry has directed brands to roll out the app via software updates. The order was not made public and was shared privately with select manufacturers.

A surge in online fraud and mobile-related cybercrime has pushed India to tighten digital security, mirroring similar efforts by other countries. Russia, for example, recently mandated the installation of a government-built messenger app called MAX on all new smartphones.

However, critics say India’s latest move raises serious privacy concerns. Speaking to Reuters, Technology lawyer Mishi Choudhary said, “The government effectively removes user consent as a meaningful choice,” highlighting the risks of forcing state-backed apps on millions of users.

India is one of the world’s largest mobile phone markets with more than 1.2 billion subscribers. Government data shows that since its launch in January, the Sanchar Saathi app has helped recover over 700,000 lost phones including 50,000 in October alone.

What the Sanchar Saathi App Do?

Sanchar Saathi is designed to help users block, locate, and track lost or stolen smartphones across all telecom networks using a centralised database. It can also detect fraudulent mobile connections and let users disconnect them.

The app has crossed over 5 million downloads and has already helped block more than 3.7 million stolen or missing phones. Additionally, authorities say it has enabled the termination of over 30 million fraudulent mobile connections.

The government maintains that Sanchar Saathi is a crucial tool for preventing cyberattacks, tracing stolen devices, supporting law enforcement and curbing counterfeit phones in the black market.

Apple Likely to Resist the Mandate

The government argues the app is necessary to curb cyber threats linked to duplicate or spoofed IMEI numbers, which enable scams and network misuse. IMEI is a unique 14- to 17-digit identifier for each mobile device and is also used to block network access for stolen phones.

But Apple is expected to push back. Despite having around 4.5% share of India’s 735 million smartphones by mid-2025 (Counterpoint Research), Apple’s policies prohibit preloading any third-party or government apps on its devices before they reach customers.

A source familiar with the matter said Apple normally refuses such government requests. Counterpoint’s research director Tarun Pathak added, “It’s likely to seek a middle ground: instead of a mandatory pre-install, they might negotiate and ask for an option to nudge users towards installing the app.”

Apple, Google, Samsung, and Xiaomi did not comment on the directive. The telecom ministry also remained silent on the matter.

FAQs

Q1. What is the Sanchar Saathi app and why is it mandatory?

Answer. Sanchar Saathi is a government-backed cybersecurity app that helps block, locate, and track lost or stolen smartphones, and detect fraudulent mobile connections. India’s telecom ministry has mandated it on all new smartphones to curb rising cybercrime.

Q2. Can users remove or disable the Sanchar Saathi app from their phones?

Answer. No. The directive requires smartphone makers to preload the app within 90 days, and users will not be allowed to delete or disable it.

Q3. How effective has the Sanchar Saathi app been so far?

Answer. Since launch, the app has recovered over 700,000 lost phones, blocked 3.7 million stolen or missing devices, and terminated more than 30 million fraudulent mobile connections.

Apple Declares Original iPhone SE, iPad Pro 2nd Gen, and Select Apple Watch 4 Models Obsolete

Highlights

  • Apple has added five products to its obsolete list.
  • The newly added products include the original iPhone SE, iPad Pro 12.9‑inch (2nd gen), Apple Watch Series 4 Nike and Hermès editions and Beats Pill 2.0.
  • Apple devices become obsolete after seven years off sale, which means Apple and service providers stop offering hardware repairs or parts.

Apple has once again updated its official list of vintage and obsolete devices. The Cupertino Giant has added five more products to the obsolete category. The newly included products range from the first-generation iPhone SE and second-generation iPad Pro to specific variants of the Apple Watch and a popular Beats accessory. Here’s everything we know about this.

Apple Adds More Models To Obsolete Product List

Apple has now marked the following devices as obsolete –

  • iPhone SE (original edition)
  • iPad Pro 12.9-inch (second generation)
  • Apple Watch Series 4 Hermès models
  • Apple Watch Series 4 Nike models
  • Beats Pill 2.0

Interstingly, the standard Apple Watch Series 4 has not been added to the obsolete list, even though the Nike and Hermès editions have.

According to Apple, a product becomes obsolete once “the company has stopped distributing them for sale for over seven years.” When a device is moved to this list, hardware servicing is discontinued entirely. As Apple explains, “Apple discontinues all hardware service for obsolete products, and service providers cannot order parts for obsolete products. Mac laptops may be eligible for an extended battery only repair period for up to 10 years from when the product was last distributed for sale, subject to parts availability.”

Let’s take a look at the newly Obsolete list.

iPhone SE (original edition)

Launched in March 2016, the original iPhone SE was beloved for its compact form factor, inspired largely by the iPhone 5s design. It featured a 4-inch screen, Touch ID home button, and an aluminium-glass build with chamfered edges. Despite its familiar design, it carried the powerful A9 chip from the iPhone 6s series. At launch, Apple’s then–marketing chief Phil Schiller said, “Everyone who wants a smaller phone is going to love iPhone SE.”

Apple later introduced second and third-generation SE models in April 2020 and March 2022, adopting the iPhone 8–style design. The lineup was eventually discontinued in February 2025 with the iPhone 16e taking its place.

As for the second-generation iPad Pro, it launched in 2017 as the first Apple device equipped with a ProMotion 120Hz display. This feature only made its way to iPhones with the iPhone 13 Pro lineup in 2021. Apple later expanded 120Hz support to even the base iPhone 17 models earlier this year.

Apple Watch Series 4

The Apple Watch Series 4 was introduced in 2018 and holds the distinction of being the first smartwatch to support ECG readings directly from the wrist. However, it was discontinued just a year later following the arrival of the Watch Series 5.

If you own a vintage Apple device, its shift to the obsolete list may come sooner than expected. Apple marks products as vintage five years after they are removed from sale, leaving less than two years before the current vintage lineup transitions into full obsolete status.

FAQs

Q1. Which Apple devices were recently marked obsolete?

Answer. Apple added the original iPhone SE, iPad Pro 12.9‑inch (2nd gen), Apple Watch Series 4 Nike and Hermès editions, and the Beats Pill 2.0 to its obsolete list.

Q2. What does it mean when a product becomes obsolete at Apple?

Answer. Once a product is obsolete, Apple discontinues all hardware servicing, and service providers cannot order parts for it. (Mac laptops may have limited battery repair eligibility for up to 10 years, subject to parts availability.)

Q3. Why are only certain Apple Watch Series 4 models obsolete?

Answer. Apple has marked the Nike and Hermès editions of the Apple Watch Series 4 as obsolete, while the standard Series 4 remains excluded from the list.

  • The clip reportedly comes from a demo reel of a former Rockstar employee.

A fresh Grand Theft Auto 6 leak has emerged online, offering what appears to be a brief look at early in-development footage from Rockstar Games’ highly anticipated title. GTA 6 is currently scheduled to launch on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series S/X on November 19, 2026, following its second delay announced last month. While Rockstar has been maintaining silence since the postponement, this leak has quickly sparked interest among fans.

Alleged GTA 6 Animation Clip Surfaces Online

The latest leak reportedly comes from a demo reel belonging to a former Rockstar Games employee. The reel includes a short clip that is believed to showcase animation work from GTA 6. The footage was shared by X (formerly Twitter) user SynthPotato, a channel focused on Rockstar-related news and updates.

The 13-second video features two animation sequences. In the first, a male character is shown unlocking a bicycle from a stand and mounting and dismounting it. The second clip depicts a female character leaping off the back of a pickup truck. The truck appears to be parked near Ocean Drive, one of the iconic locations expected to feature in Vice City, the confirmed setting of GTA 6.

The animations look smooth and detailed. The combination of the male and female character models with the Ocean Drive backdrop strongly suggests that the footage is connected to GTA 6’s development.

Rockstar Yet to Reveal Official Gameplay

Rockstar Games has not released any official gameplay for GTA 6 so far. While the second trailer contained some in-engine scenes, Rockstar has previously stated it was a mix of cutscenes and gameplay-style visuals rather than full gameplay footage.

This isn’t the first time unfinished material from GTA 6 has leaked. Prior to the release of the first trailer, a major network breach exposed numerous in-development gameplay clips, confirming early details such as the game’s dual protagonists and its return to Vice City.

Since that incident, Rockstar has maintained strict security around the game’s production. Official information has been limited to two trailers, select screenshots and descriptions on the GTA 6 website, and the recent delay announcement.

Last month’s postponement shifted the planned May 26, 2026 launch to November 19, 2026. Rockstar explained that the extra time is needed to ensure the game reaches the high level of polish expected from the studio.

FAQs

Q1. When is GTA 6 scheduled to release?

Answer. GTA 6 is currently set to launch on November 19, 2026, following its second delay from the originally planned May 26, 2026 release date.

Q2. What did the latest GTA 6 leak reveal?

Answer. The leak showed early development animation footage, including a male character unlocking and riding a bicycle, and a female character jumping off a pickup truck near Vice City’s Ocean Drive.

Q3. Has Rockstar released any official gameplay footage of GTA 6?

Answer. No, Rockstar has not released full gameplay yet. The trailers so far included in-engine scenes that mixed cutscenes with gameplay-style visuals, but not actual gameplay footage.

Xiaomi’s upcoming flagship, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra, continues to stir excitement as fresh leaks shed light on its launch timeline and upgraded camera capabilities.  Here’s an update on recent details circulating online.

Xiaomi 17 Ultra – Launch Earlier Than Expected With Improved Camera

According to a new leak shared by tipster Smart Pikachu (translated from Chinese) on Weibo, Xiaomi might unveil the Xiaomi 17 Ultra in China later this month instead of early 2026, as previously believed.

Alongside the flagship phone, the Xiaomi Band 10 Pro is also said to have received certification, hinting at a simultaneous debut.

The tipster also claims that the Xiaomi 17 Ultra will feature a “brand-new Leica coating” on its rear camera lenses. This updated coating is said to help in “eliminating chromatic aberration,” a common issue where the camera fails to align colours correctly, resulting in unwanted colour fringes in images.

Beyond this, the Leica coating is expected to reduce reflections significantly while offering “high definition and fidelity” for clearer, more accurate photos.

Xiaomi 17 Ultra – What Else We Know?

A recent report also hinted that Xiaomi may introduce a dedicated photography kit tailored for the Xiaomi 17 Ultra. Images of the kit suggest that the company might opt for a triple rear camera setup this time, diverging from the quad-camera arrangement seen on the Xiaomi 15 Ultra.

The front camera may also see an upgrade with a 50-megapixel OV50M sensor expected for selfies.

Among other details, the handset is rumoured to run on Qualcomm’s cutting-edge 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset similar to the rest of the Xiaomi 17 series.

More details regarding the Xiaomi 17 Ultra’s official launch, price, and complete specifications are expected to surface in the coming weeks.

FAQs

Q3. What chipset will power the Xiaomi 17 Ultra?

Answer. The device is rumoured to run on Qualcomm’s advanced 3nm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, similar to the rest of the Xiaomi 17 series.
