Microsoft lets Windows updates pause indefinitely in 35-day blocks

Microsoft is enabling indefinite pauses for Windows 11 updates, allowing users to delay updates in 35‑day blocks that can be reset indefinitely; updates will eventually install (mostly security fixes), and users can shut down or restart without updating. The changes are rolling out to Windows Insider Dev/Experimental channels.

LG launches its first Micro RGB Evo TV, starting at $5,000 and now open for pre-order

LG has introduced its first RGB TV, the Micro RGB evo, with pre-orders starting at $5,000 for a 75-inch model and offering 86- and 100-inch sizes. It uses a Micro RGB panel driven by an Alpha A11 AI processor and a Micro RGB Engine across thousands of dimming zones to deliver wide color gamut coverage (DCI-P3, BT.2020, Adobe RGB) and enhanced contrast, marking LG’s move beyond OLED toward RGB-based displays — though it’s not as affordable as OLED/QD-OLED options.

Nintendo Switch 2 may ship with a user-replaceable battery in the EU to meet repair rules

No launch date or regional plans are confirmed, and Nintendo hasn’t commented yet; the EU policy requires changes by 2027, with potential implications for other regions if similar laws spread.

Belkin's Switch 2 Pro case adds power and storage, but at a premium

Belkin's Pro Charging Case for the Nintendo Switch 2 packs a 10,000mAh battery, doubles as a stand, includes built-in game storage and a hidden AirTag pouch, and adds a front-edge USB‑C cutout plus an external port so you can recharge the Switch 2 without pulling a cable; it’s a more elegant, convenient solution than the non‑Pro but costs $100, is bigger and heavier, and the battery isn’t ideal as a standalone pack, so it’s worth it mainly if you want an all‑in‑one charging/media case.

DarkSword: a fileless iPhone hack targets iOS 18 users

DarkSword: a fileless iPhone hack targets iOS 18 users

Researchers reveal a new hack called DarkSword that can instantly access data on iPhones running iOS 18.4–18.6.2 simply by visiting a malicious webpage. It’s a fileless attack that can grab sensitive data (including messages, iCloud content, and crypto wallets) and then erase itself. Apple has patched related flaws in newer iOS releases (26 and 18.7) and recommends updating; Safari’s Safe Browsing can block some of the malicious URLs. While about 24% of iPhone users remain on iOS 18, applying available updates mitigates the risk.
