Insta360 announced the launch of its new Ace Pro 2 action camera, a GoPro Hero-series competitor. The camera maker introduces a larger display and upgraded 8K video recording capabilities with this action cam. With the monochromatic front display only showing text information, the 180-degree flip-up screen makes it easier to frame shots. It now has a larger 2.5-inch screen over its predecessor's 2.42-inch display and features improved brightness and pixel density. (It also matches the screen size of the DJI Osmo Action 5 Pro.) Of course, that hinge can be a durability risk if you use the Ace Pro 2 when you're using it for more extreme activities.

The other noteworthy feature of the Insta360 Ace Pro 2 is its new 8K video recording capability. Instead of recording at 8K at 24 frames per second (fps), the Ace Pro 2 records 8K at 30fps. If you record in 4K, you can access frame rates of up to 120fps or 60fps in HDR. Meanwhile, recording in 1080p offers 240fps recording for smooth slow-motion captures. It can continually capture up to 120 seconds before recording to stop the chances of missing pivotal and memorable moments. Photography gets a boost to 50-megapixel.

If you thought Valve would release a new Steam Deck every year, we're sorry to disappoint you that this might not happen. In an interview with Reviews.org, Steam Deck designers Lawrence Yang and Yazan Aldehayyat talked about the game console's future.

Despite more competition in the space, they don't plan on releasing new versions of the Steam Deck with only incremental updates. Yang said the team is looking for a "generational leap in compute without sacrificing battery life" before they launch a proper Steam Deck 2.

These are the rumoured Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra colours

Render: OnLeaks x Android Headline

We are expected to see Samsung's Galaxy S series at the start of the year. That's why rumours about the upcoming device have started to surface. The latest ones involve the colours of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. According to tipster Ice Universe, the flagship phone will be available in black, green, titanium, and blue. They haven't shared information on the online-exclusive colours yet.

Leaked phone renders show a similar silhouette as its predecessor, with the camera module getting thick, dark rings around the sensors. They remind us a bit of the Fold6's design. The Galaxy S25 Ultra will supposedly come with a 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP2 camera (perhaps like the new Fold SE) paired with a 50-megapixel ultra, 10-megapixel telephoto (3x optical), 50-megapixel telephoto (5x optical), and 12-megapixel selfie cameras.
