Armed with tools and repair guides from hardware repair advocacy firm iFixit, a user can remove and replace the phone’s back cover, battery, screen and charging port.

Adam Ferguson, head of product marketing at HMD Global, said that this process would cost on average 30% less than replacing an old phone with a new one.

Smartphone companies are increasingly working to make phones last for longer amid pressure from regulators to make electronics devices more sustainable.

Was given test for Singapore students and failed.


The publication compared ChatGPT with students who have taken the PSLE in the past three years using questions from the latest collection of past year papers that are available in bookstores.

ChatGPT received a mere 16 out of 100 points for three math papers, 21 points for the science papers, and 11 out of 20 for the English papers.

The bot was limited in that it was unable to answer questions that involved graphics or charts, receiving zero points for those sections. It, however, performed relatively better in answering questions that it could attempt to solve and managed to answer more than half of the questions in the maths papers and a quarter of the science papers’ questions, which predominantly included graphs as part of the questions.

Want to send your faraway lover a kiss? A Chinese contraption with warm, moving silicon “lips” appears to have just the answer.

The device, advertised as a way to let long-distance couples share “real” physical intimacy, is causing a buzz among Chinese social media users, who have reacted with both intrigue and shock.

Equipped with pressure sensors and actuators, the device is said to be able to mimic a real kiss by replicating the pressure, movement and temperature of a user’s lips.

A team of scientists has developed electronic skin that could pave the way for soft, flexible robotic devices to assist with surgical procedures or aid people’s mobility.

The creation of stretchable e-skin by Edinburgh researchers gives soft robots for the first time a level of physical self-awareness similar to that of people and animals.

The technology could aid breakthroughs in soft robotics by enabling devices to detect precisely their movement in the most sensitive of surroundings, experts say.
