Another year, another interesting concept goes back to the warehouse. Five years ago, LG showcased a rollable OLED TV concept. At the time, the concept joined the trend of displays that just merged into your living room. Though LG Display soon put the concept up for sale, the experiment is now coming to an end. LG has cancelled the Signature OLED R TV.

For ages, LG has been known for its quirky form factor experiments. Who can forget the swiveling or the rollable smartphone? As you might know now, LG has since pulled out of the smartphone business, taking its lookers away from the market. The experiments never stopped, though. LG soon applied its design philosophies to its display business.

The Signature OLED R TV presented something unique but familiar to audiences. Though the form factor was certainly different, it was part of the ongoing trend for devices that could easily disappear into a room. Think of Samsung’s The Frame series of displays. Compared to Samsung, LG opted for a more mechanical approach to hiding its display when not in use.

However, according to the Korean publication Chosun, sales for the unique TV haven’t really gone well. As a result, the company is discontinuing the line. The set, which costed around US$ 100,000, is now unavailable for purchase.

Regardless, the company isn’t done with unique devices. It is reportedly scheduled to launch a transparent display later this year.

Vibration alerts are meant to be discreet. However, if your phone is on a hard surface, the formerly gentle buzz can turn into a jump scare. Now, as part of the ongoing developments for Android 15, Google is experimenting with a new feature called Adaptive Vibration.

Earlier this week, I/O 2024 introduced a host of features coming to Android 15. The most notable of which is an easier way to secure a device after it’s stolen. Days after the conference, the company is still introducing more features coming to this year’s major update.

As the name suggests, Adaptive Vibration will automatically adjust your phone’s vibration strength. Of course, even without the update, you can already manually adjust the strength per notification. In that way, you can easily tell what you’re getting, based on the strength of the vibration.

Adaptive Vibration works differently. The feature will use the phone’s microphone and other sensors to automatically determine the perfect vibration strength for where it is. For example, the phone will lower the strength if it detects that it’s on a table. Likewise, it will increase the strength if it’s on a soft couch.

To be clear, this feature is different from adaptive alert vibration. The latter turns down vibration strength if the phone is facing up. Adaptive Vibration, on the other hand, uses more context to determine strength.

The feature debuted in Android 15 Beta 2. Only testers will have access to the feature for now.

Grand Theft Auto VI is the most anticipated game of the past year. After a decade of the fifth title, the franchise is finally ready to release its next iteration. Late last year, Rockstar Games released the first trailer for the upcoming sequel. Now, the company has a new update for fans: a more definitive launch window.

Since 2013, Grand Theft Auto V kept the franchise’s fire going with GTA Online and an army of roleplaying servers. However, last year, an enormous leak spoiled a lot of development plans for the next sequel. Taking it back to Vice City, the sixth entry will feature two playable protagonists. A first trailer months later would eventually confirm this.

Today, in a quarterly earnings report, Take-Two Interactive shared an important update for the launch window of Grand Theft Auto VI. The game will come out in the “Fall of Calendar 2025.”

It’s not exactly a launch date. However, it’s a sizable narrowing of the game’s previously vague window. Prior to today, the game was scheduled to come out sometime in 2025.

Having a fall release date would mirror the fifth game’s launch. Back in 2013, Grand Theft Auto V came out in mid-September. The same launch window will also ensure that gamers will have something on their wishlist for next year’s holiday stocking stuffers.
