Have you used an Android phone in the past nine years? Then Google might have to give you up to $100 later this year.

That's because the company reached a preliminary $135 million settlement (without admitting wrongdoing) in a class-action lawsuit called Taylor v. Google LLC, per CNET. The suit alleged that Google used Android users' paid cellular data to transfer information to Google without their permission. Now, users who may have had their data misused can sign up for payments on the official settlement website.

The settlement could include up to 100 million Android mobile users in the United States. If you think you qualify, check the email associated with your Android mobile account for the settlement notice.

Not sure if you're eligible? Here are the criteria:

1. You have to be a real human in the United States

2. You have to have used an Android phone with cellular data at any point between Nov. 12, 2017 and now

3. You can't be a member of Csupo v. Google LLC, a similar class-action lawsuit specifically for Californians

If you meet those requirements (and surely a whole lot of people do), you can enter your payment information on the settlement website. There's a final hearing on June 23 to determine whether or not these payments will actually go out, so you'll know by then if you're getting any money. And no, we don't know exactly how much each affected user will get, though payments are capped at $100. That doesn't mean anyone will actually get $100, though.

While Google has, again, not admitted wrongdoing here, it has agreed to pay out the settlement and will also update its Google Play terms of service regarding passive data transfers using cellular data. But really, the thing that matters here is that you might get a little bit of walking-around money for something you didn't even realize happened several years ago.

Heard lots of buzz about Netflix's Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen, but need to know more about the story before taking the plunge and checking it out? Don't worry, we've got you covered.

The eight-episode miniseries, created by Haley Z. Boston and executive produced by Stranger Things creators the Duffer Brothers, is a non-stop rollercoaster of wedding anxiety. It kicks off with the introduction of engaged couple Rachel Harkin (Camila Morrone) and Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco), who are off to the woods for an intimate ceremony at Nicky's family's cabin.

Has Rachel ever been to this cabin? No. Has she even met Nicky's family? Also no. The red flags are piling up, and making matters worse is the fact that Rachel has an unshakeable feeling that, well... Something very bad is going to happen.

What could that something very bad be? Is it related to Nicky's odd family, who are acting extra shady about the wedding? Is it tied to a Cunningham horror story about the bloodthirsty Sorry Man who lurks in the woods? Or might it have to do with the strange man (Zlatko Burić) who keeps following her around, asking if she's sure Nicky is the one?

All these questions and more combine to form Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen's atmospheric puzzle, one that dives deep into the perils of wedding anxiety and stress about finding your true soulmate. Press play for a spooky binge that doubles as one of Netflix's best 2026 offerings so far.

Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen is now streaming on Netflix.

Want to see Fitbit's new Whoop-style screenless fitness tracker? Start watching Golden State Warriors games.

Or, at the very least, start stalking Warriors star and NBA legend Steph Curry's Instagram. Curry recently teased the new fitness tracker in a sponsored Instagram post with Google, which owns Fitbit. Along with short clips of Curry wearing the tracker, a caption reads, "#sponsored I won’t spoil it. You kinda have to see it for yourself 👀"

As reported by Droid Life, Curry has been seen wearing the mysterious wrist-worn fitness tracker in public for the past several months. On April 15, photographers spotted Curry wearing the device before a game against the LA Clippers at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles, California, giving us an up-close, high-resolution look at the grey-and-orange fitness tracker.

The unnamed mystery device Curry is teasing has not been officially announced, but we know it's a screenless fitness tracker from Google.

Bloomberg reported on March 31 that Google was developing exactly this type of screen-free fitness band for Fitbit, and that Curry was involved. That Bloomberg report also said the device would come with a paid subscription for extra features. And, in the most predictable development possible, the device will also come with AI features, specifically an "AI-powered Fitbit personal health coach" available in the Fitbit app.

SEE ALSO: Google wants to fill Fitbit with AI — and your medical records

This device looks a lot like the popular Whoop fitness tracker, which Mashable has put to extreme real-world testing in the past.

Unlike something like the Google Pixel Watch 4 or a traditional Fitbit, there's no screen, meaning you spend less time looking at it. Crucially, its battery also lasts a heck of a lot longer, making it an ideal sleep tracker as well. As for this mystery Fitbit device, it looks slightly thinner than Whoop's hardware.

Bloomberg didn't have any specifics on a possible launch date beyond "later this year." However, since Curry has been wearing one in basically every public appearance he has made in the last few months, we wouldn't be surprised if the device launched sooner rather than later.

Anthropic released a new hybrid reasoning model on Thursday: Claude Opus 4.7.

Anthropic has a reputation as a safety-first AI company, and the Opus 4.7 system card reports that the model is less likely to hallucinate or engage in sycophancy than both prior Anthropic models and other frontier AI models.

We dived into the Opus 4.7 system card to see exactly what Anthropic had to say about the model's safety, honesty, and sycophancy.

Don’t miss out on our latest stories: Add Mashable as a trusted news source in Google.

The TL;DR version

Why put the TL;DR version at the end?

Anthropic says Claude Opus 4.7 makes improvements on various types of hallucinations and overall honesty. Anthropic gives the new model top marks on sycophancy and encouragement of user delusions, too. (Anthropic's data also shows that Claude Opus 4.7 scores much better on these behaviors than Gemini 3.1 Pro and Grok 4.20.)

"Claude Opus 4.7 is more reliably honest than Opus 4.6 or Sonnet 4.6, with large reductions in the rate of important omissions, and moderate improvements in factuality and rates of hallucinated input," Anthropic reports.

Anthropic measures Claude's honesty and hallucination rates in multiple ways, but let's look at one representative example — the Model Alignment between Statements and Knowledge (MASK) benchmark. MASK was developed by Scale AI and the Center for AI Safety.

Claude Opus had a MASK honesty rate of 91.7 percent, compared to 90.3 percent for Opus 4.6 and 89.1 percent for Sonnet 4.6. While that’s lower than the 95.4 percent score achieved by Claude Opus 4.5, the new model performs better on other hallucination scores (more on that below).

Interestingly, Claude Mythos was more honest still, with an honesty rate of 95.4 percent.

Claude Opus 4.7 lags behind Claude Mythos on overall performance

Since Anthropic repeatedly compares Opus 4.7 to Claude Mythos, let's quickly review the differences between the two models.

Claude Opus 4.7 is the latest hybrid reasoning model available to paid Claude subscribers. Claude Mythos is an unreleased model that Anthropic has only made available to partners via Project Glasswing.

SEE ALSO: Anthropic makes the case for anthropomorphizing AI in ‘unsettling’ research paper

Under normal circumstances, we would expect Claude Opus 4.7 to be Anthropic's most advanced and powerful model to date. However, Anthropic says it lags behind the unreleased Claude Mythos in key areas. Anthropic deemed Claude Mythos too dangerous to release to the public because of its advanced cybersecurity capabilities.

Still, Claude Opus 4.7 improves upon Opus 4.6 in many ways, particularly advanced coding, visual intelligence, and document analysis, Anthropic says.

More details on Claude Opus 4.7 hallucination rates

When using Opus 4.7, how likely is Claude to tell a lie, invent facts, or deceive users? There isn't a single hallucination rate that Anthropic provides, because there are multiple types of hallucinations.

So, this section is for the AI nerds.

Anthropic identifies a few different ways to measure hallucination and honesty:

• Factual hallucinations: How likely the model is to provide accurate information. How often does the model admit that it doesn't know something?

• Input hallucination: This occurs when an AI model ignores prompt instructions, hallucinates the content of files, or pretends to have access to a tool it doesn't have.

• False premises honesty rate: Will the model tell a user when they're incorrect?

• MASK honesty rate: This "tests whether a model will contradict its own stated belief when a user or system prompt pushes it to."

We've already covered the MASK honesty rate, and Claude Opus 4.7 shows similar gains on these other measures, according to Anthropic.

At this time, we cannot independently verify Anthropic's results.

To measure factual hallucinations, Anthropic used four different tests and recorded correct responses, incorrect responses, and abstentions. In this case, abstentions are good — the model should decline to answer a question rather than guessing. Across all four tests, Opus 4.7 scored higher than Opus 4.6 and Sonnet 4.6 but lower than Claude Mythos.

Anthropic measured Opus 4.7's input hallucination in two ways: "prompts requesting an unavailable tool" and "prompts referencing missing context."

Opus 4.7 scored 89.5 percent on the former, beating Claude Mythos's 84.8 percent; on the latter, Opus 4.7 scored 91.8 percent, two points lower than Claude Mythos's 93.8 percent.

This shows just how stubborn AI hallucinations are, with even leading AI companies like Anthropic recording input hallucination rates around 90 percent. Anthropic's reported hallucination rates are similar to the latest OpenAI models, which provide responses with incorrect information up to 5.8 percent of the time (with browsing enabled) to 10.9 percent (browsing disabled), per OpenAI.

What about Opus 4.7's honesty rate for false premises, i.e., will Claude tell a user they're wrong? According to the system card, Claude will push back on false premises 77.2 percent of the time. That's better than all other recent Anthropic models except for — you guessed it — Claude Mythos, which will reject false premises 80 percent of the time.

SEE ALSO: Google AI overviews: Confident when wrong, yet more visible than ever Claude Opus 4.7 sycophancy

There's not much new to report in terms of sycophancy. While Anthropic's expert red-team testers reported that Opus 4.7 was prone to “sycophantic agreement under pushback," it has very similar scores to prior models from Anthropic and OpenAI, and noticeably better scores than Gemini 3.1 Pro and Grok 4.20. Again, this is according to Anthropic.

To measure bad behaviors like sycophancy and "encouragement of user delusion," Anthropic uses Petri 2.0, its open-source behavioral audit tool. This test scores models on a 1-10 scale, with lower scores reflecting better behavior. The Petri score isn't akin to a percentage, as it measures both the rate of a behavior and the severity.

Anthropic scored Opus 4.7 highly (or, lowly, with this particular scale) on both sycophancy and user delusions.

Netflix's horror series Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen ended, as its title suggests, with something very bad: a wedding bloodbath that left almost all the guests dead.

SEE ALSO: 'Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen's bloody ending, explained

However, it also ended with the promise of something good: a fresh start for heroine Rachel Harkin (Camila Morrone), who survived a family curse and escaped a marriage with the spineless Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco). The curse that plagued the Harkin family for generations has since passed on to the Cunninghams, and the now-immortal Rachel will act as the witness for any of their future weddings. Here's hoping she has a much less frightening aura than the witness who haunted her family, played by the formidable Zlatko Burić.

By the finale's end, Rachel's arc seems fairly complete. But is there a chance Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen will come back for a Season 2?

So far, no. Netflix has not indicated any plans for a second season of Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen. Part of that is by the show's design: It was originally envisioned as a limited series. However, several miniseries have grown so popular they've picked up second seasons. Look at Big Little Lies, or The White Lotus, or even Netflix's own Beef, now an anthology. Could Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen follow a similar route?

In an interview with TheWrap, series creator Haley Z. Boston noted that the possibility for a Season 2 is there, but that it would look fairly different.

"There is an open thread, but this was so inspired by my own fear that I'm gonna need another existential fear to explore," Boston told TheWrap. "I think we're done with the wedding thing."

Horror series Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen delivers atmospheric thrills and chills by the bucketful, so if you haven't already checked it out, consider this your sign to add it to your watchlist.

Created by Haley Z. Boston (Brand New Cherry Flavor) and executive produced by Stranger Things creators the Duffer Brothers, the eight-episode miniseries is now streaming on Netflix. It premiered March 26 and pulled in 28.3 million hours viewed in its first week, according to Netflix. It's remained in Netflix's top 10 series globally every week since its release, although as of this writing, it no longer appears on Netflix's top 10 TV shows carousel.

The series follows engaged couple Rachel Harkin (Camila Morrone) and Nicky Cunningham (Adam DiMarco) in the week leading up to their wedding at Nicky's parents' remote cabin. As their special day approaches, Rachel can't shake the feeling that — you guessed it — something very bad is going to happen. (Maybe the remote cabin should have been the first red flag.)

Based on Nicky's off-putting family, you may expect that "something very bad" to look like something out of Ready or Not, where a filthy rich family turns on their newest addition. But Something Very Bad Is Going to Happen takes a different turn, looping in strange curses and family trauma to examine anxieties around marriage and finding the perfect soulmate.

The carnage that follows certainly lives up to the show's title, creating one of the most engrossing Netflix binges of 2026.

Bluesky, the social media app popular with X expatriates, suffered a widespread outage on Thursday, April 16.

And in a thread posted on the official Bluesky profile, the app's leaders revealed the cause of the outage — a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attack.

"Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026," the post read. "They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day."

Fortunately, Bluesky also said there was no evidence that any user data had been compromised in the attack, which affected the Bluesky app, feeds, notifications, and search. The company said it would provide further information by 1 p.m. ET Friday.

Our team received a report of intermittent app outages at about 11:40pm PDT on April 15, 2026. They worked through the night to mitigate a sophisticated Distributed Denial-of-Service (DDoS) attack, which intensified throughout the day.

— Bluesky (@bsky.app) April 16, 2026 at 7:47 PM

The Bluesky status page indicated the app was fully online as of this writing; the app reports a 99.983 percent uptime over the past 90 days.

A DDoS attack is relatively simple and low-effort for cybercriminals. In this type of attack, hackers send a massive number of requests to overwhelm servers. DDoS attacks have been around since the early days of the World Wide Web, and as the Bluesky outage shows, they can still cause problems.

The Bluesky outage began affecting users in the early morning hours, with the service DownDetector recording thousands of user error reports. (Disclosure: DownDetector and Mashable are both owned by the same parent company, Ziff Davis.)

Bluesky saw massive growth after Elon Musk took over Twitter, and again following the second election of President Donald Trump. However, its growth has stalled more recently, and data shows that daily active users on Bluesky have declined.

Mashable reached out to Bluesky with questions about the attack, and we'll update this story if we receive a response.

We're still several months away from Apple showing us the iPhone 18, but we can still bask in leaks until then.

This week, we've got a pair of leaks involving the cameras and colors for the upcoming flagship iPhone.

On the camera side, Korean outlet ETNews (via MacRumors) reports that Apple will debut a new variable-aperture rear camera system on the iPhone 18 Pro and Pro Max in September. Prior to this year, all iPhones had fixed-aperture cameras, meaning the lens remained completely open during image capture. A variable aperture will allow the lens to open and close gradually depending on the situation, letting in more light in darkness or keeping excess light out in bright settings.

SEE ALSO: Apple iPhone 17e review: Ticks every box but one

That would give iPhones an even greater level of flexibility in photography, and this report is backed up by prominent Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who said Apple would incorporate a variable aperture in the iPhone 18 all the way back in 2024.

What do the latest iPhone rumors have to say about colors?

Macworld claims to have received some information about Apple's chosen colors for 2026. According to their sources, the headline color this year will be "Dark Cherry," a dark red that will replace the controversial cosmic orange color from the iPhone 17 Pro. Macworld also said that light blue, dark gray, and silver options are also possibilities for the iPhone 18 Pro. A previous leak also suggested Apple would ditch black for the iPhone 18 Pro, which may not go over well if it proves true.

All will be revealed in September, though the iPhone Fold may get most of the attention.

TL;DR: The MacBook Neo is sold out at Apple (shipping dates have slipped into May), but you can still buy right now for Amazon's best-ever price of $589.99.

If you thought Apple’s MacBook Neo was just a niche product for students, think again. The demand for Apple's latest entry-level laptop has been staggering. Don't believe us? Shipping dates have slipped into May if you order direct from Apple.

That's the bad news. The good news is that whether you want the 256GB base model or the upgraded 512GB version, Amazon has you covered. And better yet, you can order right now for Amazon's best-ever price of $589.99.

SEE ALSO: Testing the MacBook Neo on 8K video and raw photos

So how did we get here? Global RAM shortages have jacked up the prices of Windows laptops, making the sub-$600 MacBook Neo with the A18 Pro chip the most logical purchase on the market. In Mashable's review of the MacBook Neo, Timothy Werth sums it up: "For students, young people, and casual users, there's nothing else like it at this price."

We're not rushing you into any decision here, but if you were already contemplating a purchase, consider this a warning. The popularity of the MacBook Neo is surging, and Amazon's record-low price might not stick around forever.

Apple Watch Series 11, Garmin Venu 4, Google Pixel Watch 4, Samsung Galaxy Watch 8, and Amazfit Bip 6 were tested over a 30-mile run. The comparison focused on real-world tracking accuracy across distance and performance metrics. One smart watch ultimately delivered the most consistent results across the test.

The calculus for buying a new Mac has officially changed. With the debut of the $599 MacBook Neo and a massive power bump for the M5 series of processors, Apple's 2026 laptop lineup looks very different from what it did just months ago.

In this Lab Report, we’re breaking down Apple’s entire MacBook stack—from the new budget Neo to the monster M5 Max MacBook Pro—to help you decide which machine actually belongs on your desk. We’ve spent hours testing these in the PC Labs to see how each type of MacBook handles real-world workflows.

Summer's right around the corner (for some of us, it feels like it's already here!), and that means bonfires, beach days, and backyard BBQs, which obviously, couldn't be had without some tunes.

If your speaker is shot or you've yet to get a portable Bluetooth speaker, the Monster Shock portable Bluetooth speaker is on sale for $26.99 at Amazon, down from $49.99. That's the lowest price we've tracked for this speaker, but Amazon's marking it as a "limited time deal," so you'll need to act fast.

SEE ALSO: I wore JLab's ridiculously big 'headphone' speakers. I still have so many questions!

The Monster Shock is IPX6 waterproof (so you can take it to the beach or bring it to the pool), has a 30W power driver and a max Bluetooth range of 100 feet, and offers 17 hours of playtime. And because it's practically half off right now, you could even grab two and pair them together for True Wireless Stereo surround sound for just a few bucks more than the original price of one.

Before you buy: a few reviewers noted that the speaker's automated control voice is aggressively loud, so maybe don't power it on for the first time while your friends are trying to nap in the sun.

DJI has unveiled the Osmo Pocket 4, the next iteration of its popular handheld gimbal camera. Sadly, it may be a while before people in the U.S. get to try it out.

Since its release in 2023, DJI's Osmo Pocket 3 has become a stalwart favorite of content creators across the globe. The newly announced Osmo Pocket 4 now adds several upgrades to the familiar 4K vlogging camera, such as dedicated zoom and customizable buttons that are accessible when the 2-inch touchscreen is twisted into landscape mode.

SEE ALSO: I reviewed the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 and I can't imagine a better social video camera

The DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera features a 1-inch CMOS sensor, with 14 stops of dynamic range, helping it deliver improved low-light performance. Capable of filming at a maximum resolution of 16:9 4K at 60fps, the Osmo Pocket 4 can also record 4K slow-mo footage at 240fps — a frame rate the Pocket 3 only reaches at 1080p. 

DJI states that the Pocket 4 can run for an impressive four hours at its lowest resolution of 1080p 24fps, which is notably longer than the Pocket 3, and also has 107GB of built-in storage. This will likely be welcome news to anyone concerned about the increasing cost of memory cards, as the Pocket 3 relies entirely upon SD cards.

Unfortunately, a U.S. release of the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 camera has not yet been confirmed. While other parts of the world will get their hands on the Osmo Pocket 4 within the next week, the U.S. government's hostility toward DJI continues to significantly hamper its business in the country.

SEE ALSO: We talked to DJI about the FCC drone ban in the United States.

A DJI spokesperson told Mashable that it has requested authorization from the FCC to release the Osmo Pocket 4 in the U.S. market; however, its application is still pending. And given the FCC's tough stance on foreign drone companies, U.S. content creators will simply have to continue waiting.

Meanwhile, in Australia, pre-orders for the DJI Osmo Pocket 4 are open now, with shipping scheduled to begin on April 22. The Standard Combo bundle costs $AU769 (approximately $551) and includes a handle, carrying pouch, gimbal clamp, and wrist strap. The $AU959 (approximately $687) Creator Combo includes all that plus a wide-angle lens, fill light, mini tripod, carrying bag, and a DJI Mic 3 transmitter with accessories.

At first glance, many may have assumed that Bob Odenkirk's new film, Normal, was another sequel in the Nobody franchise. With the same star, writer, and producer, the two films do share much of the same DNA. However, the team's new movie is not only a completely new story but attempts to blend genres in a way that further separates it from its predecessor.

Mashable's Entertainment Editor, Kristy Puchko, caught up with the Normal team at SXSW to talk about the film, its themes, and why they chose to film on 35mm.

The film's writer, Derek Kolstad (John Wick, Nobody), noted how this film differs from Nobody, the team's previous collaboration. "To this point, you know, in Nobody, if there's a house on fire, Hutch is going to run into it and hopefully fight anyone who's in there. In Normal, he's going to look at the house on fire and say, 'I don't know.'"

Odenkirk added, "It's not that much fire." The Normal star described the film as "a story of a guy who has lost trust in himself, his instincts. In the course of interacting with the people of this small town who are hiding something from him, he is desperately trying to avoid seeing it. And then his hand is forced. Once he sees it, he has to re-engage with the situation and the world around him. And then there's a flip-floppery of allegiances that is very surprising and probably a bit inscrutable. When asked to define, sort of, the subtextual themes, I'm like, 'Wow, there's like six of them,' and they're a little bit conflicting. And that's what's great about it."

Ben Wheatley (Meg 2: The Trench, Kill List, Rebecca), the latest addition to the production team, when asked what attracted him to the film, replied, "In the kind of range of things I still want to make. It basically has the DNA of a cowboy movie, and it has it has the white hat, black hat kind of style. It has a sheriff, which is a point of morality in the middle. But it still speaks to my kind of slightly twisted kind of sense of morality as well."

In the full interview on YouTube, the team also talks about the undeniable difference of filming with practical effects as opposed to CGI, the way certain movies hit differently as we get older, and why it was important that Normal be an homage to the classic action-thriller genre. "I think one of the reasons we're projecting this on 35 millimeter is because we want to point to that quality," Odenkirk said. "There's a satisfaction, I hope, that we're achieving. That was the reason for the poster that we have. The poster is really a throwback visual."

Normal is now in theaters.

If you're an active individual and want open earbuds for outside runs or workouts, the adjustable ear hooks on the Soundcore AeroFit 2 will help them comfortably stay in place. In our roundup of the best open earbuds, Mashable's Bethany Allard said, "While most ear hook earbuds come with some degree of flexibility, the AeroFits offer four locked-in angles, making them the most comfortable (and snug) open-ear hook buds we've tried so far."

Plus, the Soundcore AeroFit 2 provide great sound quality and a solid battery life that lasts up to 10 hours on a single charge, which is great news for people who want them for long workouts. You can spend more time focused on your routine than frequent recharges.

The Keurig K-Mini is a nice pick if you live in a smaller space. It's less than five inches wide, so can easily be slotted into a little corner of a countertop. Using Keurig K-Cup pods, it can brew any coffee cup size between 6 to 12oz. It even features a removable drip tray, which is convenient if you like filling a travel mug (up to seven inches tall) to take on the go.

On top of all that, the Keurig K-Mini is energy efficient. It comes with an auto off feature that shuts down the machine 90 seconds after your last brew, which is a helpful way to save some power.

If it's the kind of coffee machine you've been hoping to get for your home, don't miss out on this great deal on the Keurig K-Mini coffee maker at Amazon.

Chaos Rising is the next stage of the Pokémon TCG’s popular Mega Evolution set, and you can already secure its ETB under market price.

As of April 17, Walmart has preorders for the Pokémon TCG’s Chaos Rising Elite Trainer Box listed for $114.99, marked down from $149.99 with free shipping. Over at TCGplayer, presale listings are starting at $118.56 shipped. The ETB’s market price is sitting at around $119.

Compared to the higher prices of the Mega Evolution’s most popular expansion, Ascended Heroes, a cent short of $115 is a decently tempered price for a hotly-anticipated set of trading cards — set to come out on May 22. As Amazon preorders for Chaos Rising aren’t up at the time of writing, we expect Walmart’s allocation to sell out quickly. So grab yours now if you want the lowest price currently possible.
