Samsung just acknowledged that iPhones are more valuable than Android phones
Samsung opened up Galaxy Note 10 reservations nearly two weeks ahead of its August 7th announcement event, letting buyers secure an early preorder spot as well as some savings. We’re looking at a $50 discount for accessories purchased at the same time as the phone and up to $600 savings on the Note 10 via Samsung’s trade-in program. If you’re willing to trade an older iPhone, Galaxy, or Pixel phone for one of the new Note 10 phones, Samsung will give you a discount of between $200 and $600, depending on what phone you’re trading in. But what the trade-in program also shows is that Samsung also believes that iPhones are worth more money than Android devices, including its own hardware.

An epic deleted scene from ‘Avengers: Endgame’ was just revealed in a blooper reel
Avengers: Endgame is now the highest-grossing film in the known universe after surpassing Avatar at the box office just a few days ago, a title the latter held for a decade. If you haven’t seen the best MCU film to date, you can still find it in theaters because the re-released version is still screening across the country. But you should also know that it’ll soon be available online as a digital version, and in stores in Blu-ray format.
Marvel dropped a great teaser for the film ahead of its digital release, a short blooper reel that shows some of our beloved stars goofing off in front of the camera. But included in the reel might be something a lot better than mistakes made during takes, and that’s a scene that could have been one of the most epic moments in the movie. That is, until they deleted it.

Justice Department approves $26.5 billion T-Mobile and Sprint merger
Despite some ongoing and vociferous opposition to T-Mobile and Sprint’s brewing merger, the U.S. Department of Justice today officially approved it. Notably, the approval comes just a few weeks after the Antitrust Division within the DOJ recommended that the $26.5 billion merger be blocked. Incidentally, the FCC indicated that it was amenable to the merger this past May.
There are, naturally, some caveats worth mentioning with respect to the DOJ approval. First and foremost, the merger hinges on Sprint divesting itself from Boost Mobile, Virgin Mobile, and its own prepaid phone business. Additionally, some of T-Mobile and Sprint’s spectrum will be handed over to Dish.

Raid of body-donation company uncovers horror scene with buckets of body parts, heads swapped onto other bodies
When a person or their family decides that, after death, their body will be donated to science, they likely don’t imagine having their earthly remains being treated like old meat in a butcher shop. Unfortunately, that’s exactly what was happening inside the walls of an Arizona company called BRC.
When FBI agents raided the medical donation company Biological Resource Center in 2014 they were met with a scene straight out of a horror movie. Buckets of body parts, a cooler filled with penises, and heads stacked, waiting to be sold, were just a few of the things authorities uncovered, according to a newly-released report of the investigation.

The unique Android tablet Samsung made to fight the iPad Pro just leaked again
Ever since the original iPad launched in 2010, Apple’s competitors have tried to come up with decent alternatives. Most iPad rivals are based on Android, although Microsoft’s Windows 10 is optimized for tablet use and the company makes its own Surface tablet/laptop 2-in-1 devices. The iPad has become more sophisticated over the years, with Apple last year launching a Pro series that’s even more powerful than most traditional computers. The same can’t be said for most iPad alternatives that launched during the same timeframe. However, Samsung is ready to deliver an iPad Pro rival that’s actually compelling, considering that it packs a bunch of nifty features not seen on any other tablets.
