  • E-Ink 75-Inch e-Paper Display Installed at Taipei Airport

    Key Takeaway

    – 75-inch e-paper display installed at Taipei Taoyuan Airport, first of its kind at an airport.
    – Display consumes virtually no electricity, needing power only for backend communication.
    – Supports animations and videos using ambient light for illumination.
    – Uses printed Kaleido 3 panel with potential for multi-panel setups.
    – Demo serves as a platform, with hardware support from Dynascan and software/ad coordination by Omni Media.

    E-Ink has installed a large 75-inch e-paper display at Taipei Taoyuan Airport in Taiwan. According to the company, it is the first of its kind at an airport and is intended to make digital signage more economical and, above all, more environmentally friendly. This installation aims too replace traditional power-hungry screens with a solution that sips energy, wich is a step forward for sustainability in public spaces.

    Power Usage and Display Capabilities

    As is typical for e-paper technology, the display requires no power as long as the content remains unchanged. E-Ink states that the display consumes virtually no electricity. We assume that communication with a backend system requires a minimal amount of energy, which is why zero power consumption is not possible. Interestingly, the company claims that animations and videos are also possible on the e-paper display. Ambient light is sufficient for illumination. The panel used is a printed Kaleido 3, which provides colour and clarity without backlighting. This really reduces electrical waste over time.

    Hardware and Seamless Integration

    A few years ago, E-Ink announced the procurement of new printers to enable larger displays in the digital signage sector. That said, E-Ink can also place two smaller displays together relatively inconspicuously, as demonstrated by an old bus stop demo a few years ago. At that time, it featured two 42-inch Kaleido 3 panels. The announcement was made alongside E-Ink’s event at Computex, where the Taiwan-based company aimed to showcase new fields of application. They want to push there technology into more everyday environments.

    The airport demo therefore represents a platform and not just pure hardware. On the hardware side, there is support from the company Dynascan Technology. Omni Media is handling the software side and advertising material coordination. This multi-company collaberation ensures that the screen operates smoothly and displays up-to-date flight info and adds. It’s a big milestone for e-paper in public signage.

    McAfee Warns 100,000+ Minecraft Players Infected by Malware

    Key Takeaway

    – WeedHack is a Malware-as-a-Service campaign infecting Minecraft players through fake mods, clients, and utility tools since January 2026.
    – Over 116,000 systems have been infected globally, with 2,000-3,000 new infections daily.
    – The malware spreads via YouTube SEO poisoning, using fake mod videos to redirect users to malicious URLs (over 240 identified).
    – WeedHack steals session IDs, browser credentials, crypto wallets, and Premium tiers enable webcam, keyboard, and mouse control.

    Minecraft Under Siege From Nasty Malware Operation

    Minecraft is known for its extensive modding community and third-party mod support, which has always attracted players to innovate and create new quality-of-life and visually impressive mods. However, some online sleuths and hackers have taken this opportunity to infect Minecraft players systems with malware.

    A New Malware-As-A-Service Called WeedHack

    Currently, a Malware-as-a-Service operation is threatening the Minecraft community, as researchers at McAfee Labs have discovered. This service, called WeedHack, has been discreetly affecting gamers systems since January 2026 by injecting code into fake Minecraft mods, clients, and utility tools. The number of infected users is staggering.

    Staggering Infection Numbers Found

    McAfees telemetry shows that the WeedHack Malware-as-a-Service campaign has logged over 100,000 (specifically, 116,464) infected systems worldwide, with an average of 2,000 to 3,000 systems infected each day.

    Researcher Reveals Scope of Attack

    McAfee researcher Aayush Tyagi laid out his findings in an official blog post, stating: “We’ve discovered over 3,820 unique malicious JAR files that are part of this attack and over 240 URLs responsible for distributing this malware. This campaign utilizes SEO poisoning on YouTube to generate traffic to these malicious URLs. We also found two YouTube channels and multiple videos that demonstrate Minecraft mods and clients and redirect viewers to these URLs.”

    Cyberbullying Is A Major Catalyst Here

    McAfee researchers infiltrated associated WeedHack Telegram channels and reported that “WeedHack malware is a major catalyst for cyberbullying. Many of its customers appear to be teenagers and young adults and are using remote access capabilities to threaten, harass, and monitor their victims, who are around the same age.”

    Technical Skills Not Required To Use This Service

    The WeedHack MaaS doesnt require advanced technical skills. Its openly sold on the internet with a free tier and premium tiers starting from just $5 per month or a $24.99 lifetime purchase.

    What Data Does WeedHack Actually Steal

    WeedHack primarily steals Minecraft session IDs via multiple launchers, browser passwords, cookies across browsers, Discord and Steam credentials, cryptocurrency wallet data, system information, and screenshots. It also goes so far as to disable Windows Defender services using a technique called EtherHiding.

    Premium Tier Enables Even Worse Attacks

    WeedHack Premium takes things a step further, allowing hackers to obtain live webcam access, monitor and control keyboard and mouse inputs, log keystrokes, access command lines, and upload or download data.

    How To Stay Safe From This Threat

    The best way users can protect themselfs from malicious mods infected with WeedHack is simple: only download mods approved on NexusMods, CurseForge, Modrinth, or other community-trusted clients.

    • Never download mods from random YouTube links
    • Stick to trusted platforms like CurseForge and Modrinth

  • Garmin CIRQA Certification Reveals Disappointing Whoop Rival Detail

    Garmin CIRQA Certification Reveals Disappointing Whoop Rival Detail

    Key Takeaway

    – Garmin CIRQA certified in Singapore exclusively with Bluetooth, no GPS, Ant+, Wi-Fi, or cellular.
    – Device is dependent on a smartphone for distance tracking during runs or cycles.
    – May be marketed as a companion band for Garmin smartwatch users to improve workout precision and automatic recognition.
    – Intended to compete with fitness bands like Polar Loop, Whoop 5.0, and Fitbit Luxe.
    – Known sensors include heart rate, SpO2, and motion sensors; full capabilities remain unconfirmed.

    So, after Garmin CIRQA was already seen in the Garmin Connect app code and at a shop back in May, a Garmin fitness tracker with the model number A0P3039 has now gotten certified by the IRIS system in Singapore. According to the5krunner, this here is the long-awaited fitness band from Garmin.

    Specifications and Bluetooth-Only Operation

    No GPS or Wi-Fi

    The certification reveals one new detail in particular, namely the fact that Garmin CIRQA transmits exclusively via Bluetooth. Because neither Ant+ nor GPS are listed under “Equipment Description”, as is the case with Garmin smartwatches, Garmin CIRQA apparently does without Wi-Fi, a cellular modem and a GPS module. This means that the wristband is inevitably dependent on a smartphone within Bluetooth range if, for example, the distance covered while running or cycling is to be recorded.

    This is not unusual for this product category – Polar Loop, Whoop 5.0 and Fitibt Air also don’t offer a GPS module, but Garmin is missing an opportunity to differentiate itself from the competition. According to earlier rumors, Garmin CIRQA could be marketed primarily to users of a Garmin smartwatch, as those who wear a smartwatch on one wrist and CIRQA on the other should benefit from more precise workout tracking and, above all, from significantly more reliable automatic workout recognition. It is not yet known whether Garmin CIRQA can record other data apart from a heart rate and SpO2 sensor and motion sensors.

  • AMD’s Frank Azor denies FSR 4.1 cancellation rumor for RDNA 3.5 APUs

    AMD’s Frank Azor denies FSR 4.1 cancellation rumor for RDNA 3.5 APUs

    Key Takeaway

    – FSR 4.1 support for RDNA 3.5 APUs (e.g., Ryzen Z2 Extreme, AI 300/400) is not decided, with AMD VP David McAfee stating it is “not currently planned” and internal discussions “leaning toward no.”
    – AMD’s Frank Azor firmly denied any final decision has been made, emphasizing that the company continues to listen to customer feedback.
    – No technical reason prevents FSR 4.1 from working on RDNA 3.5, as users have successfully tested it via third-party injection tools like OptiScaler.
    – Rapid backlash and response from AMD suggest customer feedback may still influence a reversal of the decision.
    – RDNA 4 GPUs (e.g., RX 9070 XT) remain the guaranteed path for FSR 4.1 and long-term software support.

    AMD has officially announced a staggered FSR 4.1 release schedule for RDNA 3 and 2 GPUs, but rumors have been circulating that Team Red has decided to skip its mobile RDNA 3.5 APUs, such as the Ryzen Z2 Extreme, AI 300, AI 400, and Radeon RX 8000 Mobile series. According to reports, AMD was considering dropping support for RDNA 3.5 in favor of older discrete desktop RDNA 3 and RDNA 2 GPUs.

    Interview Reveals Uncertainty

    The confusion spread when German news outlet HardwareLuxx interviewed David McAfee at Computex 2026. AMD Vice President David McAfee stated that the company doesn’t have any concrete plans to bring FSR 4.1 to RDNA 3.5 APUs, but the decision hasn’t been finalized yet. As a result, FSR 4.1 support for RDNA 3.5 APUs is currently up in the air. In his own words, “FSR 4.1 is not currently planned for RDNA 3.5.” He mentioned that AMD needs to weigh the pros and cons of introducing the technology to iGPUs, and that the internal discussion seemed to be “leaning toward ‘no.’”

    Frank Azor Clarifies

    However, more recently, AMD’s Frank Azor, Corporate Vice President of Client and Graphics Marketing, stepped into the discussion to state firmly that no such decision has been made regarding the implementation of FSR 4.1 for RDNA 3.5 handhelds and mini-PCs. Frank Azor responded directly to numerous posts from various outlets, such as Digital Foundry and Pirat_Nation, in a statement on X, saying: “I wasn’t there to hear the exact words said. However, I will share that no such decision as being reported or implied here has been made. We are not ready to speak to any other potential future product plans at this time. We continue to listen to our customers, and we hear you.”

    Technical Feasibility

    Still, there’s no definitive reason why FSR 4.1 or FSR 4 INT8 wouldn’t work on RDNA 3.5 GPUs, as many gamers have already tested the technology on Strix Halo APUs using third-party injection tools like OptiScaler. Given the speed at which Frank Azor responded to online reports, which is contrary to AMD’s usual style, it’s possible that customer feedback (and backlash) continues to shape AMD’s decision to implement FSR 4.1 support for RDNA 3.5 GPUs in the future.

    Future Outlook

    RDNA 4-based GPUs like the currently on sale RX 9070 XT are expected to be gamers’ best bet when it comes to long-term software support and a guaranteed path to FSR 4.1, even as many decry what they feel is AMD pulling back from its older “fine wine” narrative to offering sustained value across the board to consumers, often years after release. The RX 9070 XT features 64 compute units, 16GB GDDR6 memory, and a boost clock of 2.8 GHz, with a TDP of 304W, priced at approximately $599.

    • Hisense Teases New E Ink Smartphone for 2025

      Key Takeaway

      – Hisense A10 is a reported successor to the A9, featuring a 7-inch Carta 1300 E Ink display (up from 6.1-inch Carta 1200).
      – Specs include 6GB RAM, 128GB storage, a 4,500mAh battery, dual-SIM 5G, and 4K HDR camera.
      – Listed quad-core Cortex-A35 processor is likely an error, as the A9 used a more powerful Snapdragon 662 octa-core.
      – Release targeted for mid-2026, but no official confirmation from Hisense yet; info should be taken cautiously.

      In 2022, the Hisense A9 was announced as an Android smartphone with an E Ink display. Three years later, Hisense released a variant with more RAM and double the storage of the original. Now, report of a true successor has begun circulating.

      Specifications and Display Details

      The new model is said to be called the Hisense A10, and a teaser image alongside some key specifications have been revealed. According to reports, the A10 will have a larger display than the A9 — A 7-inch Carta 1300 E Ink display with a 300 PPI, to be precise. The Hisense A9 has a 6.1-inch Carta 1200 E Ink display.

      Processor and Performance Concerns

      The Hisense A10 is reported to be powered by an unnamed quad-core processor with Cortex-A35 cores. It has also been stated that the device has 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage. Considering the Hisense A9 is powered by the Snapdragon 662 chipset which is an octa-core processor with CPU cores based on the Cortex-A73 and Cortex-A53 cores, a quad-core processor with significantly weaker CPU cores for the Hisense A10 is definitely an error.

      Other reported specifications include a camera that can record in 4K with HDR support, dual-SIM support with 5G, Bluetooth 5.1, and a 4,500mAh battery capacity which is a notable increase from the 4,000mAh battery of the previous generation. There’s no mention of the version of Android it will ship with.

      • 7-inch Carta 1300 E Ink display
      • 300 PPI resolution
      • Unnamed quad-core processor
      • 6GB of RAM
      • 128GB of storage
      • 4K HDR camera
      • Dual-SIM with 5G
      • Bluetooth 5.1
      • 4,500mAh battery

      Release Timeline and Reliability

      Hisense itself hasn’t shared any details of the device, so the information above should be taken with a grain of salt. However, if an earlier report from last December is to be believed, the Hisense A10 is scheduled for release in mid-2026, so we can expect an official announcement soon.

    • Ugreen Launches AMD NAS with Dual 10 GbE, Up to 144TB

      Key Takeaway

      – Ugreen’s new NASync DXP4800 GT uses an AMD Ryzen Embedded R2514 processor, which is less powerful than the Intel chips in the Plus and Pro models.
      – The device features dual 10 GbE ports (upgraded from a 2.5 GbE + 10 GbE setup) and ships with 8 GB DDR4 ECC RAM, expandable to 64 GB.
      – It offers 4 SATA bays and 2 M.2 slots, with support for U.2 SSDs in the first two bays.
      – The launch price is $525.99 (20% off the $659.99 MSRP) using the code “DXP4800GT,” making it cheaper than the Plus and Pro models.

      New NAS Models from Ugreen

      UGreen has expanded its NASync DXP lineup by introducing two new NAS devices, namely, the NASync DXP4800 GT and the DXP2800 GT, in the global market. To recall, Ugreen already announced the GT lineup in its home country last month. The former is a 4-bay NAS, which joins the Intel-powered DXP4800 Plus and DXP4800 Pro models in the brand’s roster. However, we have already covered the DXP2800 GT separately, and you can read about it here.

      AMD Ryzen Processor Choice

      This time around, Ugreen has opted for an AMD Ryzen option for its NASync GT lineup. Speaking more precisely, the DXP4800 GT is powered by a 4-core, 8-thread AMD Ryzen Embedded R2514 processor, which is less powerful compared to the Pentium Gold 8505 and Core i3-1315U found in the Plus and Pro models.

      Memory and Storage Details

      Furthermore, Ugreen has paired the DXP4800 GT NAS with a single 8 GB DDR4 memory with ECC support. In any case, the DDR4 memory can be expanded up to 64 GB, but the global model only ships with 8 GB RAM. The new DXP4800 GT features a black-and-gold color design instead of the silver finish used on the previous models. Like its siblings, there are four bays for traditional 3.5-inch SATA drives plus two M.2 slots. However, the first and second bays can also accommodate U.2 SSDs.

      Connectivity Options

      In terms of connectivity, Ugreen now offers dual 10 GbE ports for the DXP4800 GT, replacing the 2.5 GbE + 10 GbE setup found in the last generation models. Nevertheless, it offers a variety of ports on the rear panel, including 2 x USB 2.0 ports, 1 x 10 Gbps USB-A, and HDMI. Up front, you get another 10 Gbps USB-A and 10 Gbps USB-C port, plus an SD card reader and status LEDs for the drives and Ethernet connections.

      Pricing and Availability

      The Ugreen NASync DXP4800 GT has an MSRP of $659.99. As a part of a launch offer, the company is offering a straight 20% discount via the “DXP4800GT” code, bringing its price down from $659.99 to $525.99 for a limited time. Interested buyers can purchase it from Ugreen’s official website and Amazon. For context, the GT model is slightly cheaper than the DXP4800 Plus and Pro models, which are currently available in the US for $619.99 and $679.99, respectively. We also have the review unit and are working on a full review. We are excited to see how the DXP4800 GT stands against its competitors.
