NASA engineers have identified corrupted memory as the cause of Voyager 1's data transmission issues and are working on a remote fix for the hardware problem from 15 billion miles away. The corrupted memory, likely caused by either wear and tear or energetic particles, is hindering the spacecraft's Flight Data System (FDS) from operating normally. Despite being out of physical reach, engineers are optimistic about finding a software solution to enable Voyager 1 to resume sending science and engineering data back to Earth.
Users of Google's Pixel Watch have reported that the back panel of the device is falling off without any damage done to the watch. The issue could be related to a problem with the product's adhesive. Google has yet to acknowledge the problem, but users have taken to its support service with their complaints. Some users have been able to get a replacement device, while others have been denied or asked to pay $300 to file a warranty claim.

Users of the base and plus variants of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series have reported a strange blur in photos taken with the main camera.

No complaints have been reported about the Galaxy S23 Ultra. It is advised that affected users contact their local Samsung administration to see if there is a fix via a software update or if they need to send their units back to Samsung.
