Smart takes Ookla’s Best Mobile Video Experience award in PH for 1H 2026

Smart Communications has secured its position as the leading provider for mobile video performance in the Philippines, earning the “Best Mobile Video Experience” title from Ookla for the second year in a row. According to recent Speedtest Intelligence data from the first half of 2026, the carrier achieved a top-ranking Video Score of 72.82, surpassing other local mobile operators. This metric specifically evaluates the quality of streaming by analyzing how quickly videos begin, the presence of buffering interruptions, and the consistency of high-definition resolution during playback. The achievement is closely tied to the company’s ongoing expansion of its 5G infrastructure. As of mid-2026, the transition to next-generation connectivity is accelerating, with the number of 5G-enabled devices on the network rising by 30% to reach 12.5 million. This growth means that over 20% of the total devices currently active on the network are now utilizing 5G technology...

NBA 2K27 vs NBA 2K26: Every on-court and gameplay change revealed

Visual Concepts just laid out the year-over-year on-court changes for NBA 2K27, from a five-meter Takeover rebuild to the death of the dice-roll ankle breaker. The biggest single change in NBA 2K27 isn’t a new shot or a new animation — it’s the rebuilt Takeover system. Gameplay Director Mike Wang’s team has split Takeover across five separate meters tied to specific on-court skills, with 24 unlockable Abilities that can fire off multiple at once when a player is performing across the board. Wang described that ability to chain Takeovers as an “uber demigod” state on the court. Each NBA 2K27 Takeover — Shooting, Finishing, Playmaking, Defense, and Rebounding — gets its own HUD bar that moves through six stages in real time: Frozen, Cold, Neutral, Warm, Hot, and Takeover. A full loadout is one Ability per discipline plus a universal Hydration Hero slot, so players can mix and match instead of running a single global Takeover. Each Ability runs on it...

Xiaomi introduces new smart camera with built-in screen for video calls

Xiaomi is getting ready to launch an updated version of its video calling camera, and this one comes with a display built directly into the unit. The company has made big changes compared to last year’s model. The most obvious upgrade is the 3.97-inch colour screen on the front. It has a 480 x 800 pixel resolution display, and the buttons next to it are now bigger and easier to press. You can make video calls in three different ways. You can wave your hand, push a button, or set the camera to connect automatically. The calls work between the camera and a phone, or between two cameras. For sound, the device uses two microphones and a decent-sized speaker. There is also a noise reduction feature that helps cut down on background chatter, so the person on the other end can hear you more clearly. The camera itself has an 8MP sensor that can shoot video in 4K quality, which is 3840 by 2160 pixels. It can also spin around a full 360 degrees and tilt up to 30 degrees...
