Apple Podcasts Adds Video, Samsung Teases Privacy Display

Apple is set to host a special event in New York City on March 4th at 9 AM ET, with simultaneous press events in London and Shanghai, according to The Verge. The event, which will not be held at Apple Park, will feature an Apple logo in segmented discs of yellow, green, and blue, hinting at potential product announcements.

The invitation to the event includes the words "You're invited," as reported by The Verge. While the specific details of the event remain undisclosed, speculation points towards potential announcements of new MacBooks, iPads, iPhone 17e, and displays, among other products.

In other tech news, Apple's Podcasts app will soon allow users to seamlessly switch between audio and video podcasts, as detailed by The Verge. Using HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) technology, users will be able to transition from listening to a show to watching a horizontal video version. The app will also enable users to download video versions for offline viewing.

Meanwhile, Samsung has released an advertisement for its upcoming Galaxy S26 launch, seemingly confirming rumors of a new display with a built-in privacy mode, according to The Verge. Leaked videos show the feature could black out content from specific apps or parts of the display when viewed at an angle.

In the gaming world, Sony and Nintendo are reportedly facing RAM shortages due to increased demand from AI data centers, as reported by The Verge. This could potentially impact the pricing of the Switch 2 and delay the release of Sony's next-generation console, possibly pushing it back to 2029.
