Samsung Joining Apple In Not Offering Power Adapters With Smartphones Next Year

We’ve gotten several reports at this point suggesting that Apple will not be including power adapters with their next lineup of iPhones, which stirred up quite a bit of criticism. It seemed a strange move considering every other major company includes a power adapter with their phones, though it looks like another company will be following suit next year.
The company in question is Samsung, who reportedly won’t include power adapters with some of its smartphones in 2021. This news comes from Korean site ETnews (via The Verge), who has been a reliable source in the past. They are doing this because they believe that power adapters “have become widespread,” and not including them will allow them to reduce production costs.
If you’ve been buying new smartphones for even a few years at this point, it’s very likely that you have multiple power adapters. For those users, there should be no issue at all here. However, for new users or those who find themselves needing to replace a broken one, you’re going to have to purchase one separately.
We recently talked about a new leak adding more fuel to the fire that Apple won’t be including a power adapter or EarPods with their iPhone 12 lineup. A new render of the packaging showed what looks like a container that can only hold a charging cable and paperwork, and then the smartphone itself on top of it.
It’s going to be very interesting to see how this will be received when it finally goes into action, because right now there are definitely many people who are not very receptive to this. We’ll keep you updated as more information on this topic comes to light.

Resident Evil Death Island Reunites Favorite Characters

The latest trailer for Sony Pictures Entertainment’s CGI film Resident Evil: Death Island, released July 25, features the outlandish action and melodrama that made the franchise a cult sensation.
This Resident Evil Avengers-esque team-up features Leon S. Kennedy, Jill Valentine, Chris Redfield, Claire Redfield, and Rebecca Chambers.
The T-Virus and killer whales take the gang to Alcatraz in San Francisco Bay, where a new nightmare awaits. In magnificent slow motion and with progressively heavier ordinance, the Dream Team will supposedly destroy zombies, Lickers, mutant orcas, and anything else foolish or nasty enough to stand in their path.

Download the Latest PS5 Firmware Now!

Sony’s PS5 firmware update is everyone’s favorite news story. It’s been a while, but don’t get too excited—this is just a minor one. No biggie.
PS5 system software 23.01-07.40.00 does what? Latest firmware patch notes:
- System software performance and stability increased.
- We improved screen messaging and usability.
That’s it! Sony’s definition of “some screens” is unclear, but perhaps it improves communications. PS5 messages weren’t a problem, though. The update is barely over 1GB, so updating your console won’t take long.
Excited for this PS5 update?

More PS5 Metal Gear Solid remakes? Konami Must Know

Want more classic Metal Gear Solid remakes on PS5? You’ll need to speak Konami’s language—dollar bills—to express your desire.
“Regarding remakes of previous games in the series other than Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater, we will listen to player demand and consider accordingly,” a Konami official told IGN.
Konami explained that “we chose Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater because it depicts the birth of Big Boss (Naked Snake), which is the starting point of the Metal Gear series.” Fans wishing it would last forever contributed.
Metal Gear Solid Delta: Snake Eater, yes? Maybe you’ll buy another disc to show Konami you’ll pay again?
