24 hours after the PlayStation Showcase, we still have a few stars in our eyes. And, even if Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 seems to be unanimous among editorial journalists, we all have our little darlings among the long list of titles that the Japanese firm has presented. Final Fantasy XVI. Dragon’s Dogma 2. Assassin’s Creed Mirage. The remake of Metal Gear Solid 3. Or Alan Wake 2. These are some of the titles that make us want. But the chef’s surprise was PlayStation Project Q, this accessory calibrated to play in Remote Play with the PS5. We have compiled for you a file on the beast with all the official information and some leaks. But since it’s not just the game in life, here are the three articles you should not miss on May 25, 2023.
You will finally be able to create a WhatsApp account with a nickname
The functioning of WhatsApp has always been subject to many criticisms, in particular account management. Migrating your account from one smartphone to another has always been complicated, especially if you are switching from an iPhone to an Android, or vice versa. Which is obviously not very practical. Also, it was impossible to receive and send messages from multiple devices. What other couriers offer, even the most outdated. Fortunately, WhatsApp is not totally obtuse to the prospect of adopting a more “modern” operation. After the possibility of using the same account on several devices, WhatsApp is testing nicknames that could eventually replace the telephone number. A real revolution.

What if the Galaxy S23 FE was released at the start of the summer?
Traditionally, the FE (or Fan Edition) version of the annual flagship comes out quite late in the year. Even the following year. Let’s take two examples. The Galaxy S20 was released in February 2020 and the Galaxy S20 FE in September 2020. And in January 2021 the Galaxy S21 was released, while its FE version did not arrive until January 2022. A delay which was widely criticized by the press and consumers. As a result, the S22 FE was simply cancelled. But the FE range could return in 2023. And Samsung would have chosen to launch this version of the Galaxy S23 earlier. Much sooner. A leaker claims that it would even be formalized during the hot season, a few weeks before the next models in the Z range.

The price of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra will really bite!
This is certainly the bad news in telephony this week: a leak reveals the price of the Xiaomi 13 Ultra, the very next high-end smartphone from the Chinese brand. This beautiful baby would be marketed in Europe at 1499 eurosbrushing against the psychological barrier of 1500 euros that only folding smartphones have (blithely) crossed. It would therefore only be 100 euros more expensive than the Xiaomi 13 Pro. And, above all, it would be sold more expensive than the iPhone 14 Pro Max. Of course, for an equivalent storage volume, Apple’s proposal would still be the most expensive…
