This week, I’ve been slowly catching up on Dark Matter; I’m about 20 hours into Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door on the Switch; and I’m still trying to work a trip to the movie theater into my schedule to see Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.

Samsung’s gorgeous Galaxy Book4 Edge has fallen to its lowest price to date
The portability of a laptop is nice and all, but oftentimes, the tradeoff is a smaller screen that can feel cramped if you’ve got a lot of tabs open. Thankfully, there are laptops like Samsung’s Galaxy Book4 Edge, which offers a 16-inch display in a thin and lightweight package. It typically starts at $1,499.99, but right now, Best Buy is selling it with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage for just $999.99 ($450 off), which is a new all-time low price. If you prefer a slightly smaller display, the 14-inch model is also on sale for $899.99 ($450 off).
We were struck by how stunning the Galaxy Book4 Edge is. Along with being spacious, the laptop boasts a lovely OLED display that makes colors pop, while its chassis is beautiful. The screen also boasts a 120Hz refresh rate for smoother scrolling and is powerful enough for the average consumer.
Granted, its Qualcomm Snapdragon X Elite chipset didn’t quite compare to rivals like the AMD-powered Asus Zenbook S 16 on graphics performance, but the laptop’s still capable of handling multiple apps and letting you multitask with ease. Plus, you likely won’t need to worry about battery life, as it can last a little over 14 hours on a single charge — more than enough to get you through the average work or school day.

I’m behind, in other words! And this week’s trailers shoveled so much more onto my need-to-watch pile, from the next Marvel MCU film, Thunderbolts, to the amusingly bizarre black comedy Rumours, to Disclaimer, Alfonso Cuarón’s new Apple TV Plus series. That’s to say nothing of all the game trailers from Sony’s State of Play event this week.
Check out some of my favorite trailers from this week below.
Thunderbolts
Marvel hasn’t said much about Thunderbolts, which sees David Harbour’s Red Guardian and his daughter, Yelena Belova (Florence Pugh) in a new outing that concludes the MCU’s phase 5 in May next year.
Joining them are Taskmaster (Olga Kurylenko), Ghost (Hannah John-Kamen), Bucky Barnes (Sebastian Stan), and John Walker (Wyatt Russell), with Valentina Allegra de Fontaine (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) as their apparent ring leader. There’s also a mystery character named Bob (Lewis Pullman) who, as The Verge’s Charles Pulliam-Moore hinted earlier this week — and Polygon went at head-on — is probably Sentry, a Marvel version of Superm—er, a flying bulletproof guy with superhuman strength, speed, and agility.
Rumours
I’m trying to think of the best thing to compare Rumours to. The big, sans-serif, drop-shadowed fonts scream 1970s-era exploitation films, as do its backlit fog and sometimes pinkish tint, which makes it look a bit like a well-aged film print.
The trailer has notes of Wes Anderson’s deliberate blocking and framing, mixed with the absurdism of Quentin Dupieux’s Rubber. There’s a gigantic brain? And some zombies. And leaders of the G7 nations, trapped in the woods with all of that. Whatever it is, Rumours, a black comedy from co-directors Guy Maddin, Evan Johnson, and Galen Johnson looks like it’ll be a hoot when it hits theaters on October 18th.
Sinners
Sinners sees one of director Ryan Coogler’s mainstay actors, Michael B. Jordan, playing 1930s twin brothers who go back to their hometown to start over, only to be confronted by some unknown horror.
The name and trailer point to a religious theme. (“You keep dancing with the devil, one day he’s gonna follow you home.”) But shadowy figures outside a juke joint and a young boy walking into a church with fresh claw marks on his face hint at more. Maybe it’s a murderous cult, maybe the town is beset by actual demons. What’s really going on is a total mystery, and hopefully, it’ll stay that way until its March 7th theatrical release.
Alfonso Cuarón’s new Apple TV series, Disclaimer, is a seven-part psychological thriller that starts streaming on October 11th. Cate Blanchett stars as a journalist named Catherine Ravenscroft, whose dark secrets are revealed in an anonymously written novel that is sent to her.
The secrets are apparently bad enough to threaten her relationship with her husband, Robert (Sacha Baron Cohen), and her son, Nicholas (Kodi Smit-McPhee). The series also stars Kevin Kline, Lesley Manville, Louis Partridge, Leila George, and Hoyeon, and it’s narrated by Indira Varma.

Lenovo launches two new notebooks in the ThinkBook series with Snapdragon X Plus X1P-42-100 and AMD’s Ryzen AI 9 365 processor
Lenovo has unveiled two new ThinkBook models as it looks to exert its dominace on the business laptops landscape.
The ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 and the ThinkBook 16 Gen 7+ bring major upgrades over their predecessors, offering cutting-edge hardware designed for demanding users, but catering to slightly different needs, especially in terms of performance, display, and other key features.
Both devices come with a 16-inch IPS screen, but while the former supports 2.5k reoslution, the latter supports 3.2k – and both also run on Windows 11 Pro and offer a Kensington Nano Security Slot for security.
ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 combines a sleek design with advanced AI capabilities from the Snapdragon X Plus chipset to give modern professionals robust performance, enhanced productivity, and more security
The ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 is powered by the Snapdragon X Plus X1P-42-100, an ARM-based processor known for its energy efficiency and connectivity, but able to hit 45 TOPS for enhanced AI performance.
The ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 also comes with up to 32GB of LPDDR5x RAM clocked at 8448 MT/s, which ensures fast performance across a range of tasks, and offers up to 1TB PCIe Gen4 x4 SSD, which ensures fast boot times, smooth application launches, and ample space for most needs. For graphics, this model features a Qualcomm Adreno GPU capable of delivering up to 3.8 TFLOPs.
The ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 offers two display options: a 16:10 WQXGA 2.5K IPS display with 100% sRGB color coverage and 350 nits of brightness, or a more modest WUXGA IPS display with a 60Hz refresh rate, 45% NTSC color accuracy, and 300 nits of brightness.
There’s also an FHD RGB camera with a privacy shutter, ensuring security during video calls, and Dolby Atmos audio technology provides immersive sound through the stereo speakers.
In terms of battery, this device uses an 84WHr battery, and for security, it relies on the Microsoft Pluton security processor, a fingerprint reader integrated into the power button, and the webcam’s privacy shutter. In addition to Wi-Fi 7, the Lenovo ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 comes with several connectivity options such as two USB-C 10Gbps ports, two USB-A 5Gbps ports, an HDMI 2.1 port, a 4-in-1 SD card reader, and an audio combo jack.
This ThinkBook 16 Gen 7 weighs 1.82kg and will be available in October 2024, with a starting price of $749.
ThinkBook 16 Gen 7+ features the Ryzen AI 9 365 processor and Radeon 88M graphics for exceptional speed and high-resolution visuals for the modern professional, all in its classic dual-tone chassis
The ThinkBook 16 Gen 7+ takes performance a step further with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 processor, known for its strong computational power and efficiency, but also delivering 50 TOPS (Tera Operations Per Second), slightly more than the Snapdragon X Plus found in the Gen 7.
Like the Gen 7, the Gen 7+ offers up to 32GB of LPDDR5x RAM, though at a slightly lower clock speed of 7500 MHz – but the real upgrade comes in the storage department, where the Gen 7+ offers dual 2280 M.2 SSD slots, allowing users to expand storage up to 4TB, perfect for handling large files like video or engineering projects. For graphics, the AMD Radeon 880M is a more powerful option compared to the Qualcomm Adreno in the Gen 7. It handles more graphically demanding applications, making it ideal for content creators and power users.
In terms of display, the ThinkBook 16 Gen 7+ features a 16-inch 3.2K IPS display with a 165Hz refresh rate, DCI-P3 color accuracy, Dolby Vision support, and TÜV Low Blue Light certification for eye comfort, making it suitable for users requiring top-tier display performance, such as video editors and photographers.
The camera setup in the Gen 7+ is also enhanced with FHD RGB and TOF (Time of Flight) technology, improving depth sensing for better video quality while the audio is supported by Dolby Atmos, providing a high-quality sound experience. This new notebook comes with an 85WHr battery and for security, it includes the same Microsoft Pluton security processor, fingerprint reader, and privacy shutter as the Gen 7. Additionally, the Gen 7+ features an IR camera for facial recognition, adding an extra layer of protection.
In terms of connectivity, the ThinkBook 16 Gen 7+ offers more advanced options, including a USB4 port with Thunderbolt 4 certification, a full-function USB-C 3.2 Gen 2, two USB-A 3.1 ports (one featuring Always On functionality), an HDMI 2.1 port, an RJ45 Ethernet port, and a hidden USB-A 2.0 port.
The ThinkBook 16 Gen 7+ weighs 1.9kg and will be available in October 2024 in EMEA markets, with a starting price of €999 (approximately $1,110).

Explore books dealing with multiverses and alternate worlds
Gremlin/Getty Images
Since I became science fiction columnist for New Scientist, I have had to think a lot about what qualifies as sci-fi. Very often, a book could actually be classified as fantasy, which is outside my remit. More and more, I find myself agreeing with the writer Damon Knight when he said: “Science fiction is what I point to [when I say] ‘That’s science fiction’.”
Anyway, for this holiday reading special, I present my list of some of the year’s best sci-fi so far. All that binds these incredibly diverse books…
Apple HomeKit has always lagged behind Alexa and Google Assistant, notably lacking a smart display similar to that of the Echo Show 15 or the Nest Hub. Rumors suggest that the company’s next gadget might rectify that. MacRumors reported code found in Apple’s backend that referenced something called HomeAccessory17,1. That might not seem like much to go on until you realize that HomePod is similarly named AudioAccessory.
There are still too few details to make any definitive conclusions, but we can venture an educated guess that the upcoming device might be powered by the A18 chip and feature AI-focused features. Apple already has plans to integrate OpenAI and Siri. Adding AI-powered intelligence into a smart home system would potentially give it never-before-seen functionality — perhaps even more than what Alexa can currently offer, although Google Assistant’s use of Gemini could level the playing field.
The code also hinted that the HomeAccessory — probably not the final name of the product — would run on a version of tvOS. If true, then this new gadget might be a chimera-like build of the iPad and HomePod. It’s speculation, but it might look similar to the Google Pixel Tablet.
Other rumors suggest the next HomeKit device could contain a camera for user identification and gesture recognition. Again, take all of this with a grain of salt — none of it has been confirmed yet, but it’s exciting to see new developments in a smart home platform that has largely been underrepresented.
With confirmed changes coming to HomeKit in iOS 18 like enhanced guest controls and robot vacuum support, HomeKit might finally be getting the attention it needs.
