  • Motorola Edge 50 Pro gets disassembled on video

  • Weekly poll: what do you think of the Motorola Edge 50 series?

  • Weekly poll results: the Motorola Edge 50 series is promising but overpriced

    Last week’s poll shows that Motorola aimed too high with the pricing of the Edge 50 series. That said, with solid review scores and a good discount, these could become very popular (we have already reviewed the Pro and Ultra models). Starting with the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra, nearly half of voters picked the “it costs too much” option. Maybe they would have felt differently if the phone had the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, but the 8s variant is an issue at €1,000. Many in the comments were...

  • Study shows ultra-thin two-dimensional materials can rotate the polarization of visible light

    It has been known for centuries that light exhibits wave-like behavior in certain situations. Some materials are able to rotate the polarization, i.e. the direction of oscillation, of the light wave when the light passes through the material. This property is utilized in a central component of optical communication networks known as an "optical isolator" or "optical diode." This component allows light to propagate in one direction but blocks all light in the other direction.
