Xiaomi Launches 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max in China With Enhanced Privacy Display

·7 views

Xiaomi has launched the 18 Pro and 18 Pro Max smartphones in China, featuring an upgraded take on the privacy display technology seen on Samsung's Galaxy S26 Ultra. Both devices are equipped with dual 200-megapixel cameras, rear secondary screens, and Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 chips. The rear displays can show notifications, capture selfies, and run simple games, continuing a design approach introduced with last year's 17 Pro series. Unlike their predecessors, which remained China-exclusive, the 18 Pro models are confirmed for a global release later this year.

NHTSA Investigates Comma's Hands-Off Driving Tech After 2 Fatal Crashes

US safety regulators have opened an investigation into Comma's hands-off driving technology following at least two fatal crashes. The probe examines incidents in which the autonomous driving software appears to have been in use at the time of the accidents. Notably, some of the crashes under review involved drivers using unofficial 'forked' versions of Comma's software, rather than the standard release. The investigation raises questions about the safety risks posed by modified variants of autonomous driving systems operating outside developer-sanctioned parameters.

Undersea Volcano Collapse Study Reveals How Small Eruptions Trigger Large Tsunamis

New research into the Hunga volcano has shed light on how relatively small undersea eruptions can generate disproportionately large tsunamis. Post-eruption imaging of the Hunga caldera provided detailed data on how the volcanic structure collapsed. The findings suggest that the physical collapse of a caldera, rather than eruption force alone, plays a key role in wave generation. This challenges earlier assumptions about the scale of volcanic activity needed to produce dangerous tsunamis. The study has implications for how scientists assess tsunami risks from underwater volcanic events worldwide.
