    • Technology

Samsung may have another issue with its smartphones of all stripes as some YouTubers have discovered recently that models kept in storage for a long time show evidence of the back panels breaking with errant, and perhaps defective batteries, expanding in the chassis, causing the smartphone body to warp. Steve and Ben discuss this latest issue with Samsung phones, as well as NASA’s successful DART mission to hit an asteroid, and the turmoil that has erupted from the recent Optus data hack in Australia, and the UK’s recent economic woes following the release of a mini-budget by the current UK government.
