Lyft will have to tell drivers how much they can truly earn, with evidence
Lyft has agreed to to tell its drivers how much they can truly earn on the ride-hailing platform — and back it up with evidence — as part of its settlement for a lawsuit filed by the US Justice Department and the Federal Trade Commission. The lawsuit accused the company of making “numerous false and misleading claims” in the advertisements it released in 2021 and 2022, when the demand for rides recovered following COVID-19 lockdowns in the previous years. Lyft promised drivers up to $43 an hour in some locations, the FTC said, without revealing that those numbers were based on the earnings of its top drivers.
The rates it published allegedly didn’t represent drivers’ average earnings and inflated actual earnings by up to 30 percent. Further, the FTC said that Lyft “failed to disclose” that information, as well as the fact that the amounts it published included passengers’ tips. The company also promised in its ads that drivers will get paid a set amount if they complete a certain number of rides within a specific timeframe. A driver is supposed to make $975, for instance, if they complete 45 rides over a weekend.
Lyft allegedly didn’t clarify that it will only pay the difference between the what the drivers’ earn and its promised guaranteed earnings. Drivers thought they were getting those guaranteed payments on top of their ride payments as a bonus for completing a specific number of rides. The FTC accused Lyft of continuing to make “deceptive earnings claims” even after it sent the company a notice of its concerns in October 2021, as well.
Earlier this month, the company launched an earnings dashboard that showed the estimated hourly rate for each ride, along with the driver’s daily, weekly and yearly earnings. But under the settlement, Lyft will have to explicitly tell drivers how much their potential take-home pay is based on typical, instead of inflated, earnings. It has to take tips out of the equation, and it has to to clarify that it will only pay the difference between what the drivers get from rides and its guaranteed earnings promise. Finally, it will have to pay a $2.1 million civil penalty.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is getting several display improvements
After a few years of resting on its laurels, Samsung might be shaking things up a bit for its 2025 Galaxy smartphones. Recent reports suggest that the Galaxy S25 series could bring major changes to some key components. For instance, the Galaxy S25 Ultra would boast several display improvements over its predecessors.
Samsung is a giant conglomerate whose divisions are involved in multiple segments of the tech industry. The company has a wealth of experience in the panel segment thanks to the work of Samsung Display. Many big Android brands, and even Apple, turn to Samsung panels for their flagship and premium devices. This results in the displays on Galaxy S models consistently offering impressive image quality.
Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra may adopt M14 display material with multiple improvements
Now, reliable tipster Ice Universe said on X that the Galaxy S25 Ultra will have multiple display improvements. According to the source, the South Korean giant would adopt a new-gen M14 OLED material. The change to a new-generation base material usually means better image quality and less power consumption. For the Galaxy S25 Ultra, it would translate into improvements in “brightness, viewing angle, screen color accuracy, and many other aspects,” the post states.
For reference, Samsung’s M14 OLED display boasts 30% more brightness and 20% lifespan gain compared to the M13 generation. The first devices to use the M14 material were the iPhone 16 and Pixel 9 series. Unfortunately, there are no more specific details on those “many other aspects” that will receive improvements. However, it seems that the company is determined to take the image quality of its next premium smartphone to a new level.
No more grainy effect issue reported by Galaxy S24 Ultra users
Since the tipster explicitly mentions the Ultra model, it’s possible that the vanilla and Plus Galaxy S25 models will feature displays similar to the current models. Earlier this month, the same source revealed another improvement to the Galaxy S25 Ultra’s display. Several users of the current Galaxy S24 Ultra complained about a noticeable grainy effect under certain usage conditions. Well, Ice Universe said that this problem won’t be present on the 2025 Galaxy Ultra phone.

The M2 MacBook Air is cheaper than ever at $700, plus the rest of this week’s best tech deals
Black Friday/Cyber Monday is more than a month away (Thanksgiving falls on November 28 this year — I looked it up so you don’t have to). So while we wait for all of the best-of-the-year discounts the shopping event usually entails, there are still a few worthy sales out there on the tech we’ve reviewed and recommend. For example, the space gray M2 MacBook Air (our pick for the best budget Apple laptop) is down to $700 with an on-page coupon. For those ready to make (very tasty) ice cream at home, the Ninja Creami has a coupon code for $40 off. There are plenty of Anker batteries and accessories on sale too, plus we found discounts on a few choice video games to round out the savings. Here are the best tech deals from this week that you can still get today.
-
Ninja Creami ice cream maker for $160 at Ninja ($40 off): Use the code CREAMI40 to save $40 off the list price directly from Ninja. The 7-in-1 ice cream maker isn’t your average appliance, as we make clear in our Ninja Creami review. It’s based on machines found in restaurants, and creates uniquely high-end frozen treats.
-
Anker Prime Power Bank 27,650mAh for $130 at Amazon ($50 off): This beefy battery earned a mention in our guide to laptop batteries. It carries a lot of extra charge for laptops, tablets and phones and can even be paired with an optional dock to conveniently recharge the unit itself. This sale price is about $5 more than the all-time low.
-
Anker 633 Magnetic Battery, 10,000mAh for $40 at Amazon ($40 off): Other Anker batteries are also on sale at Amazon right now, including this MagSafe compatible option for half price.
-
Samsung Galaxy SmartTag2 trackers at Amazon (4-pack) for $64 ($36 off): While this isn’t a record low price — it dropped to $60 over Labor Day — it’s a solid discount on our pick for the best Bluetooth tracker for use with Samsung devices. We like the shape of the fob itself as well as the rather large finding network that calls on other Samsung devices out in the wild to locate your lost things.
-
Apple Watch Series 10 for $370 at Amazon ($30 off): Apple released its Series 10 Watch only a month ago and it’s down to its lowest price yet. The wearable earned a 90 in our review thanks to its thinner frame and bigger screens and it’s our favorite smartwatch overall. The 42mm model is down to $370 from $399 in Jet Black and the 46mm model is down to $399 from $429 in Jet Black and Silver Aluminum.
-
Apple Watch Ultra 2 (small band) for $700 at Amazon ($99 off) : If you’ve got a smaller wrist (or plan to swap out the watch band anyway) you can snag the AW Ultra 2 with a titanium case for nearly $100 off. The sale only applies to the small size of the Alpine Loop in indigo or olive. This is still the current model of Apple’s largest smartwatch, as a new one didn’t materialize during Apple’s iPhone 16 event in September.
-
Anker Charging Station (100W) for $40 at Amazon ($20 off): On any given day, I’m testing (and thus needing to recharge) between one and four electronic devices — ereaders, smartwatches, portable batteries and more — plus I have my own phones and gadgets. This compact box is the only thing I’ve found with enough ports to handle everything at once. I just wish I’d bought mine on sale.
-
Apple MacBook Air (2022, M2) for $700 at Amazon ($299 off): The M2 MacBook Air is currently $700, which is close to the the lowest price yet. The space gray model requires applying a $149 coupon to the $849 discounted price for the full deal and other colors have been periodically dropping to that low without the coupon over the past couple days. This is the 2022 model which earned high praise from us in our review. It’s also Engadget’s pick for the best budget MacBook.
-
Samsung S90C OLED TV (65″) for $1,300 at Best Buy ($300 off MSRP): This 2023 model received high marks across the web, and the differences between it and the newer S90D aren’t massive and the newer one is $300 more. This deal is about $20 more than the lowest price we’ve tracked for the 65-inch model.
-
Roborock Q5 DuoRoller+ for $300 at Amazon ($150 off): This model made our list of the best budget robot vacuums thanks to its strong suction power, the precision LiDAR mapping and the robust app and voice controls. The 33 percent discount is a record low.
-
Apple Magic Keyboard for iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) for $300 at Amazon ($49 off): If you sprang for the 13-inch iPad Pro and want the matching keyboard, to make a true computer replacer (in terms of both utility and cost), you can at least take advantage of this sale. The keyboard is well-made, pairs nicely like Apple accessories do. This deal is another new low.
-
Anker Prime 67W USB C Charger for $40 at Amazon ($60 off): This is about $2 more than the all-time low from last Black Friday. Anker products often find themselves at the top our lists for chargers, batteries and more. So if you need quick charges for a few of your smaller devices, this should serve you well.
-
JLab Go Air Sport for $14 at Amazon ($16 off): The Go Air Sport is the budget pick in our guide to the best running headphones. The hook design stays in place and the water-resistance holds up to sweat and light rain. This is close to the lowest price. Just be sure to click the $6 on-page coupon, and note that it only applies to the teal colorway.
-
Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Max + Xbox Core Wireless Controller (Sky Cipher) + 1-month Xbox Game Pass Ultimate for $80 at Amazon ($67 off): This bundle is likely here to promote the fact that you can play Xbox games over the cloud using the Fire TV Stick 4K Max. This comes with the streaming stick, the “Sky Cipher” version of the Series X/S pad, which usually costs between $60 and $70, and a month of Game Pass Ultimate. The 4K Max also happens to be a surprisingly decent retro gaming machine.

Q3 game M&A strengthens for 4th straight quarter | Drake Star
Gaming merger and acquisition (M&A) deal activity increased for the 4th straight quarter during the September period with $2.5B in disclosed deal value and over $1 billions raised in private financings.
Drake Star Partners reported in its quarterly gaming report that the market got a boost in part as public markets continued to recover, with the Drake Star Gaming Index of public game companies growing 10.2% for the first nine months of the year.
It also helped that the initial public offering (IPO) of Tencent-backed Shift Up surged almost 50% on its trading debut. It’s not exactly something to celebrate, as there are still some very tough times for the losers in the gaming industry now, with more than 32,000 layoffs in the past three years. Konvoy Ventures, which keeps its own separate quarterly data, sounded a similar note of greater optimism.
“We are thrilled to announce that M&A activities have continued to gain momentum for the fourth consecutive quarter. It’s also encouraging to see a rebound in the valuations of the top 30 listed gaming companies,” said Michael Metzger, partner at Drake Star Partners, in an email to GamesBeat. “This ongoing recovery in valuations is likely to further stimulate M&A activity in the future.”
Metzger added, “So far this year, private equity firms have been the top buyers, and we expect to see more significant PE deals alongside smaller tuck-in acquisitions from companies like Jagex/CVC and Keywords/EQT. Additionally, we foresee several major divestitures of gaming divisions in the upcoming months.”
M&A activity
Still, it’s a ray of hope in at a time when investors crave good news. With 56 announced M&A deals and $2.5B in disclosed deal value, Q3 continued the strong uptick in M&A activity for the 4th straight quarter (70% growth in number of deals compared to Q3 last year).
Playtika’s acquisition of SuperPlay for $700 million at close ($1.95 billion including the full earn-out over time) was the largest deal of the quarter. Other notable acquirers included Tencent (Aojue Digital), Warner Bros. Discovery (Player First), Krafton (Tango Gameworks), Capcom (Minimum Studios), Keywords (Wushu Studios), Nazara (Fusebox, Deltias Gaming) and Infinite Reality (LandVault).
Private financings
Drake Star said $1.1 billion was raised in private financing through 181 deals, a notable growth in deal value, but the number of deals was similar relative to Q2. Large private financings included Infinite Reality ($350 million), Hybe ($80 million), Gcore ($60 million), Volley ($55 million) and Saber Interactive.
Drake Star said investors continue to invest primarily in seed / early-stage companies (over 90%). Blockchain gaming attracted about 32% of all investments and platform / tools about accounted for 23%. Funding for growth stage gaming studios continued to be challenging. In some previous quarters, blockchain games accounted for half of all fundings.
Andreessen Horowitz and Bitkraft were the most active large gaming VC over the last 12 months followed by Play Ventures. Early-stage gaming and consumer investor Patron has raised $100 million for its second fund.
Tencent backed Shift Up had a successful IPO with stock surging around 50% on trading debut (raised $320 million), while India’s Nazara raised over $100 million in equity. Embracer Group refinanced its credit line ($652 million) and Kakao Games raised $198 million in bonds that are exchangeable for Krafton shares owned by Kakao.
With a gradual recovery in public markets, Drake Star Gaming Index grew 10.2% for the first 9 months of this year. Top performers were SEA, Konami and Krafton and laggers were Ubisoft, Corsair and Unity.
Outlook
M&A activity is expected to further strengthen for the rest of this year and next, continuing its strong growth over the last year, on the back of lowering interest rates and a gradual broader recovery in the public gaming market.
While Drake Star expects some large transformative deals from industry leaders such as Tencent, Take-Two, Savvy/Scopely and Playtika, the trend of strong growth in mid- to small-sized deal count will likely continue. With limited mid- or late-stage funding available, some gaming studios will choose an earlier exit and join a larger company.
Private equity firms have been a major consolidator this year (CVC/Jagex, EQT/Keywords), and Drake Star expects more acquisitions and take-private deals led by financial sponsors. Drake Star also expects more divestitures of large gaming divisions.
For private financings, AI, mixed reality, platform and tools continue to be hot segments.
As broader gaming markets continue to recover, Drake Star anticipates IPO-ready gaming companies to start exploring their listing ambitions in 2025.

Lyft fined $2.1 million for misleading ads about how much drivers could make
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) announced Friday that rideshare company Lyft has agreed to pay $2.1 million as part of a proposed settlement that requires it to change how it advertises driver pay.
The company routinely advertised that drivers could make “specific hourly amounts” — in one instance, claiming earnings of “up to $33” per hour for driving in Atlanta — that were based not on an average, but on what the top fifth of drivers made, according to the Commission. The company also apparently included tips in those figures.
Such moves “overinflated the actual earnings achieved by most drivers by as much as 30%,” writes the FTC, which says the company now must base potential pay claims on what drivers typically make, instead. And those amounts can no longer factor in tips as part of stated hourly pay.
“It is illegal to lure workers with misleading claims about how much they will earn on the job,” said FTC Chair Lina M. Khan. “The FTC will keep using all its tools to hold businesses accountable when they violate the law and exploit American workers.”
The FTC included examples of Lyft’s offending ads in its complaint, such as those below.
Screenshots: United States of America v. Lyft, Inc. proposed order

Lyft also apparently promoted earnings guarantees, such as one promising $975 for completing 45 rides in a weekend. But those also misled drivers, who thought they’d be getting the amount as a bonus on top of what they earned, when the offer was actually a conditional minimum pay guarantee for doing a set number of rides, according to the FTC. The company is now required to make that fact clear.
Here is the proposed order:
In a statement on its website, Lyft highlights changes it has made recently to tell drivers how much they can earn and says it is “committed to following the FTC’s best practices” when communicating such details.
