The price of the future Nintendo Switch 2 leaked, Outlook finally removes one of its most painful limits, Google offers a new look to its Android application, this is the news recap for Friday August 11, 2023.
What’s new in the Android and High-Tech universe on Phonandroid this Friday, August 11, 2023? First of all, we mentioned in our pages the new features of OneUI 6.0, Samsung’s software overlay. On the program: a new font for the keyboard, a revised and corrected lock screen or a new option on the Camera widget.
We also learn that YouTube will disable links in Shorts videos. Faced with too many spams and messages redirecting to questionable sites, the platform takes a radical decision by removing the possibility of posting clickable links in the comments, descriptions or direct stream of YouTube Shorts.
On the hardware side, AMD plays with our nerves by announcing a limited edition of its RX 7900 XTX graphics card in the colors of Starfield, except that we cannot buy it. Like the also revamped Ryzen 7 7800X3D processor, the 500 copies produced are not for sale. It is assumed that they will be offered to influencers. But without further ado, let’s take a look at the three pieces of information you absolutely must remember in the news for Friday, August 11, 2023.
The Nintendo Switch 2 would cost 399 dollars? Not sure
Rumors are rife about Nintendo’s next console. The latest outright gives its selling price. $399 for the Japanese manufacturer’s future machine. The leak comes from a certain “Zippo”, who does not necessarily have a good reputation in the world of leakers. The information should therefore be taken with a grain of salt, even if the price remains plausible.

Outlook finally gets rid of an annoying limitation
It took a long time, but this time it’s here! Those who use the Outlook mail client on a daily basis will be delighted: Microsoft has decided to tackle the size limit of files attached to messages. It’s still 20MB, except if the file exceeds it, you’ll now be prompted to upload the file to OneDrive for easy sharing. Practical.

An attractive new design for the Google application on Android
All Google apps on Android have moved to Material Design 3, or Material You. All? No. One of them resists again and again the enva… the makeover. The Google application itself, which is used to search or display its Discover feed. Some users had the chance to test a new interface while “cards”. We like it here.
