Samsung’s S24 Ultra as announced in the US earlier this month. | Photo by Allison Johnson / The Verge Samsung’s Galaxy S24 lineup has launched in China‚ and the company is tapping Chinese tech giant Baidu to power its Galaxy AI features‚ CNBC reports. There’s no mention of Google‚ whose Gemini foundational models are powering Samsung’s Galaxy AI features in Western markets. Instead‚ the Chinese launch focused on Baidu’s Ernie‚ the chatbot that launched last August. The list of AI translation‚ summarization‚ and text formatting features on the Chinese version of the Galaxy S24 will be familiar to anyone who kept up with its US-based launch.

The decision won’t affect ongoing exports‚ just pending decisions on liquified natural gas (LNG) exports to countries with which the US has no free trade agreement. “During this period‚ we will take a hard look at the impacts of LNG exports on energy costs‚ America’s energy security‚ and our environment‚” Biden said in a statement today. “This pause on new LNG approvals sees the climate crisis for what it is: the existential threat of our time.” “During this period‚ we will take a hard look at the impacts of LNG exports on energy costs‚ America’s energy security‚ and our...

When we reviewed the Honor Magic V2 last summer‚ we told you that the biggest problem with the Chinese vendor's paper-thin foldable was the limited availability. Priced at around $1‚248.99 in China‚ the thinnest foldable phone in the world would not be available internationally — at least‚ not initially.  Fast-forward to late January‚ Honor has finally brought the Magic V2 to Europe‚ just in time to put additional pressure on Samsung. Samsung vendor is currently preoccupied with selling the Galaxy S24 flagship series worldwide. But word on the street is that Samsung is looking to launch a cheaper Galaxy Z Fold 6 version this summer‚ to counter strong competition in China and elsewhere from companies like Honor.  Continue reading...
