The landline telephone network, which has been in service since the 19th century, will enter a well-deserved retirement when Elisa will discontinue landline connections by 30.6.2026. The change affects both consumers and companies, and is part of the development towards newer and more functional technologies. Elisa will contact landline customers during the spring. The number of landline telephone network users has decreased drastically in recent decades, as Finns have switched to using modern and more functional mobile networks.
Elisa founder Daniel Waden played a significant role in the development of the Finnish landline network. Even in the 1990s, landlines were a familiar sight in Finnish households. As mobile networks and mobile phones developed rapidly in the early 2000s, the number of landlines began to decline significantly. Despite this, many people still remember the landline numbers of family and friends, even after decades.
Now the moment is coming when the telephone wires will finally stop singing on June 30, 2026.
“The change is part of the development towards newer and more functional technologies, and it affects both consumers and businesses. Currently, Elisa’s customers only have a few thousand landline connections, and the number is decreasing all the time. Landline connections have been used in landline telephones, faxes, switchboard solutions and elevator phones, among other things. New connections have not been sold for years,” says Ilkka Pohtola, Business Director responsible for consumer connections at Elisa .
Modern 4G and 5G mobile networks offer users not only a more affordable option, but also a more weather-resistant and technologically capable one. Elisa’s 4G network covers over 99.9 percent of Finns and the 5G network over 97 percent. Elisa has also launched an independent 5G network, which will help to fully utilize the potential of the comprehensive 5G network.
You can keep your landline number
The aim is to make the transition to newer technologies smooth for both businesses and consumers.
The landline network services will operate until the end of June, so you can replace your old one with a suitable alternative during the spring. For business customers, replacement solutions will be mapped out, and they will receive a customer newsletter during January. All consumer customers affected by the change will be contacted by letter at the end of April, and they will be offered a replacement option. In addition, more information is available on Elisa’s website.
It is possible to keep your landline number even if the landline connection itself ceases to exist. There are subscriptions that utilize the mobile network, to which the familiar number can be transferred as is. The subscription can then be used at home, at work or at the cottage with a regular mobile phone or a GSM desk phone similar to a landline.
This is how the shutdown of the landline network progresses:
Elisa says it will discontinue landline connections in January 2026.
Until spring 2026, landline connections will continue to function as before.
Corporate customers will be contacted starting in January.
Consumer customers will receive a more detailed customer letter for changing their subscription and phone at the end of April.
The landline network will cease operations on June 30, 2026.
JOURNEY’s latest lifestyle essential, NEXA LIFT Laptop Sleeve, is now on sale. NEXA LIFT, the third NEXA laptop sleeve in the NEXA series, is a 5-in-1 laptop sleeve that simplifies laptop work for people who hot desk, commute, travel, and work remotely.
It is JOURNEY’s first laptop sleeve to feature a phone stand.
NEXA LIFT is a protective everyday carry item that pulls a lot more duty when traditional sleeves are idle.
“When people who need to work on their laptops have less to pack, carry, and unpack, their transition to work mode is much easier.”– JOURNEY
NEXA LIFT’s adjustable phone stand equips laptop carriers with vital additional screen space for video calls and more.
Laptop carriers who protect their device inside the sleeve can also wirelessly fast charge their earbuds (up to 5W) and iPhone (up to 15W) on NEXA LIFT’s wireless charging panel.
Like predecessors, NEXA LIFT pulls extra duty as a mousepad and mini desk mat.
JOURNEY said it is designed to support laptop carriers to quickly set up high-functioning places of work with minimal carry equipment.
“When people who need to work on their laptops have less to pack, carry, and unpack, their transition to work mode is much easier,” said JOURNEY’s spokesperson. “They’re better equipped for efficient device activity too.”
NEXA LIFT is a mousepad and mini desk mat too.
NEXA LIFT heralds JOURNEY’s latest expansion into multi-purpose lifestyle accessories for busy device users.
The split-material sleeve (vegan performance leather and microfibre), which is available in midnight black and light grey, features an envelope-style magnetic closure lid that opens up to reveal a wireless charging panel.
The wireless charging panel subsequently avails an adjustable magnetic phone stand that displays a phone screen at two viewing angles.
“It offers all the protection of a traditional laptop sleeve, but laptop carriers can also work comfortably where they set up, keep their devices charged, and stay productive with additional screen real estate.”
San Francisco, California — 34-year-old Ethan Miller never imagined he could earn a stable $8,150 a day using only his mobile phone.
No complicated equipment, no technical skills required, and no need to be glued to a computer 24/7. All he did was download the CryptoMiningFirm cloud mining app, register an account, select a contract, and let the system work automatically.
His account balance grew from 0 to $244,500 in just two months. This change almost overturned all his original understanding of “making money with your phone”.
A Story of an Ordinary IT Engineer’s Counterattack
Ethan was originally an IT engineer, but he lost his job due to company layoffs. Pressure, mortgage payments, and expenses weighed heavily on him. “I had to find a new opportunity, or I’d be bankrupt,” he said.
“Just use your phone, no need to buy mining rigs, no technical required, automatic mining and automatic settlement every day.”
He was skeptical, but still registered and tried it out. After registering, he received a $51 newcomer bonus, and the next day he started seeing earnings deposited into his account.
On day one, he earned $55.4.
On day three, he earned $236.
On day seven, he earned $2,870.
A month later, his daily earnings exceeded $8,000.
After confirming the platform was legitimate and secure, he upgraded his contract—and the rest is history. His highest daily earnings reached $8,150, and his monthly earnings exceeded $240,000.
He said, “I’m not an expert, I just took the first step earlier than others.”
How does CryptoMiningFirm achieve this?
Unlike traditional mining, which requires expensive mining rigs, CryptoMiningFirm offers cloud-based mining:
Users simply access the platform via their mobile phone or computer. The platform handles the mining rigs, maintenance, power, and computing power management.
Profits are automatically distributed to the user’s account daily. What Ethan finds most unbelievable is that even when his phone is off, the earnings continue to arrive.
More importantly, it features:
✔Dual regulation by the UK and the EU (MiCA model)
✔ Full security protection with Cloudflare + McAfee
✔Green energy mining farms (USA/Canada/Nordic/Southeast Asia)
✔AI intelligent computing power scheduling improves mining efficiency by 35%
✔Supports mining of multiple cryptocurrencies including BTC, ETH, XRP, DOGE, and SOL
This makes mining no longer exclusive to “professional players,” allowing ordinary people to easily participate.

GAMEBABY consists of two parts that attach to your phone. As a phone case, both parts attach to the back. As a controller, flip the lower part to the front, and your phone instantly becomes a retro gaming handheld. Enjoy gaming on-the-go with GAMEBABY’s versatile design. So if you are a gamer on mobile this is certainly something for you to check out.
GAMEBABY supports GB, GBC, GBA, and NES button layouts, with custom emulator skins for perfect compatibility across various handheld console layouts right on your iPhone 17 pro or other compatible phones. You will need to download apps to get this case to work and it may take two apps depending on your region for me in Ireland I had to download two apps being altspace and delta emulator and delta being the main app where you can add skins and game ROMS in order to use the case to its full potential.
GAMEBABY needs no charging, Bluetooth pairing, or complex setup. Just flip the lower part to the front anytime, anywhere to start gaming and a first I have seen in such phone case offerings where a charge is needed via phone or bluetooth connection so this is a simple slap on and get playing with no faffing around to some extent.
How it works
Accessory: The GAMEBABY is a two-piece case that acts as a physical controller when the phone is not in use as a regular case.
Physical buttons: The bottom piece of the case contains physical buttons that operate by pressing on the screen to mimic touch inputs.
Game compatibility: It works with the Delta emulator to play games from systems such as NES, Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance.
Emulator setup: To use the physical buttons, you need to download the Delta emulator from the App Store and a custom skin that aligns the on-screen controls with the physical buttons on the case.
Overall it is not your typical phone case but ads more to the usual slap on and go it is functional and retro and enables you to open a new world of gaming on your iPhone.

The emporia TOUCHsmart.3 is not a flagship smartphone, nor is it a basic “talk and text” feature phone. It carves out a unique and necessary niche: a clamshell (flip) phone that combines the simplicity and tactile feel of a physical keyboard with the modern connectivity required today, primarily instant messaging and flip phones are back with a bang and this one looks nice and is well built only the front display could have had some use but not this time.
It is clearly targeted at the senior market or those seeking a “dumbphone” experience who still need essential smart features like WhatsApp which is like other massaging apps more commonly used now and a growing trend with senior users of smartphones.
The TOUCHsmart.3 is built around a “best-of-both-worlds” design philosophy, blending hardware and software elements for maximum accessibility.
The most distinguishing factor is the flip design coupled with dual input:
Physical Keypad: Features large, clearly labeled keys that are easy to press, making dialing and basic texting straightforward.
Touchscreen: The internal 3.47-inch display is a full touchscreen, allowing users to navigate apps like WhatsApp and maps just like a small smartphone, you would be forgiven to forget it is actually a touch screen which I forgot several times but its cool and you should avail of it.
This combination addresses the common frustration of needing a full keyboard for dialing but a touchscreen for modern app interaction. Flipping open the phone also automatically answers a call like the good oul days with flip phones.
Unlike many basic feature phones, the TOUCHsmart.3 supports 4G LTE, Wi-Fi, and Bluetooth 5.0. Crucially, it runs on a simplified Android OS, giving it the power to run essential modern communication apps.
Emporia highlights the dedicated shortcut key for messaging (WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram), recognizing that staying in touch often means more than just SMS and voice calls.
Yays
Ease of Use: The large buttons and the charging cradle are highly praised by the target audience (seniors).
SOS Function: The dedicated emergency button offers peace of mind by contacting up to five designated contacts instantly which is a key USP with emporia devices all round
Build Quality: It has an IP44 rating and generally feels sturdy and well-built.
Accessibility: Hearing aid compatibility (M4/T4) is a thoughtful inclusion.
Nays
Performance: The hardware (2GB RAM, MediaTek P35) can lead to some lagging especially when using complex apps or trying to multitask but this device is not targetted at such a user but tested anyway.
Battery Life: The 1,400 mAh battery capacity is relatively small for an Android-based device, possibly needing to charge it daily, particularly if using messaging apps frequently.
Limited Customization: Being an adapted Android device, it can be restrictive in accessing deeper settings or using alternative launchers.
Internal Storage: The 16GB internal memory is limited, although it is expandable up to 64GB via MicroSD.
Camera Quality: The 8 MP main camera is functional but delivers only basic photo quality, which is typical for a device in this segment but perfoms well in daytime scenarios.
The emporia TOUCHsmart.3 is an excellent choice for a very specific user: someone who values the tangible simplicity of a flip phone and physical buttons but cannot live without a key messaging app like WhatsApp to stay connected with family.
It’s the ultimate compromise phone—less complex than a full smartphone, but far more connected than a standard feature phone.
If your priority is simplicity, ease of calling/texting, safety, and a dedicated WhatsApp button, the TOUCHsmart.3 is a highly recommendable device.
However, if you require a phone for heavy internet browsing, demanding apps, long-lasting battery life without daily charging, or taking high-quality photos, you might find the performance and battery limitations frustrating but previous flip phone users of old will feel comfortable as they where the same before and again aimed at a targt demographic.
Simple and Convenient: With pre-installed WhatsApp, you can easily chat with family and friends, share photos or send voice messages – without any complicated settings. Stay in touch with your loved ones with ease.
Your Everyday Smart Companion: Large physical keys, a bright color touchscreen, and intuitive navigation make it extremely easy to use – perfect for those looking for a hassle-free mobile experience.
One-Touch Security: The built-in emergency button allows up to five contacts to be alerted with a single press – for quick and efficient assistance when needed.
Exceptional Sound Quality: Extra-loud ringtone, loud speakers, and hearing aid compatibility ensure you won’t miss a call and hear every conversation clearly.
Convenient Charging – No More Bulky Cables: The included charging dock makes charging a breeze – just put the phone on its stand, and it charges automatically. No more fiddling with cables.
The Emporia Smart ME7 is positioned as a safety-focused, durable smartphone developed for practicality over flashy specs. Weighing in at 173 grams, it feels noticeably heavier in hand than most mainstream models, but the robust build quality delivers confidence in everyday use. The rear of the device features a physical Panic button and a fingerprint sensor for quick access and enhanced security – a unique combination for those seeking peace of mind.
Emporia states: “The emporia 7 series is all about safety and durability: a fully equipped Android smartphone with a comprehensive security package, ongoing security patches and the tried-and-tested Panic button.”

Safety, Spares & Support
Emporia’s decision to fit a dedicated Panic button offers tangible safety for older users or those with medical needs. The Panic button can trigger calls, with customisation options for rapid help. Unlike most manufacturers, Emporia supports direct user ordering of spares, such as batteries (priced around €18), via their website. This approach improves long-term ownership and reduces dependence on service centres, which often charge premium rates for repairs.
Usability & Practicality
Emporia positions its devices for seniors, those less familiar with touchscreens, or anyone seeking longevity without unnecessary complexity.. The printed manual with QR codes and clear instructions stands out as refreshingly user friendly in a landscape dominated by online-only guides.
Performance & Weaknesses
The MT6765X Octa-Core processor is strictly entry-level – adequate for calls, web, and social apps, but does not support 5G networks and will struggle with gaming and graphics-intensive apps. Screen transitions aren’t as fluid as on mid-range or high-end devices, so power users may notice lag. Battery life, however, is excellent for its class, and the customisability of the hardware (spare parts, manual battery replacement) gives the Smart ME7 an edge for those who value reliability over raw horsepower.
The camera setup, typical for value-focused phones, delivers passable results for snapshots and video calls but won’t compete with flagship handsets. The IP54 rating gives basic splash resistance but is not suitable for prolonged outdoor use in rain or direct water.
Brand Background
Techbuzz Ireland has reviewed a variety of Emporia releases over the past decade, including the SMART.6 lite, emporia 313, JOY-LTE, WATCHjoy Smartwatch, TOUCHsmart.3, and others. Emporia was founded in Austria in 1991 and develops products for the UK, Ireland, and Europe, with a design presence in Austria and Germany and manufacturing based in Shenzhen, China.
Final Verdict
The Emporia Smart ME7 delivers excellent battery life, unique safety features, and practical support options, truly aligning with the brand’s focus on simplicity and reliability. While the lack of 5G and the entry-level processor set real limits for gaming or heavy multitasking, these are honest trade-offs for a phone designed with real-world durability and user-friendliness in mind. The honest addition of spares ordering, a physical manual, and the Panic button make the ME7 stand out in a crowded market.
Recommended for: Seniors, first-time smartphone users, or anyone seeking a robust, uncomplicated handset with strong support for repairs and maintenance.
Google’s newest Pixel hardware includes AI features to help you make the most of your time. Check out nine new ways AI makes your Pixel even more helpful. See the first look here.
1. Try Google’s most powerful AI chip yet
All Pixel 10 phones come with Google Tensor G5, Google’s most powerful chip yet that delivers performance boosts while unlocking brand new experiences. Co-designed with the Google DeepMind team, Tensor G5 is the first chip to run the newest Gemini Nano model. And together, the combined power of Tensor G5 and Gemini Nano will make your everyday life easier by running many complex, generative AI experiences on-device.
If you decide on a Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL or Pixel 10 Pro Fold you’ll also get a free year of Google AI Pro, giving you access to image and video generation tools like Imagen 4 and Veo 3 that make your creative ideas come to life.
2. Get a helping hand from Magic Cue
The more we do on our phones, the more we find ourselves digging through different apps to find what we need. Magic Cue connects the dots across your apps, like Gmail, Calendar, Screenshots, Messages and more, to proactively surface relevant info and suggest helpful actions when you need them.
Say your friend texts to ask when your flight’s landing. Magic Cue will reference your itinerary, pull the relevant details and suggest you share them right in your Messages app with just a tap. And if you need to make changes to that itinerary, Magic Cue automatically displays your flight information when you call your airline.
That in-context support shows up in many more situations, like when a friend asks you to send a photo or dinner reservation details. Magic Cue will suggest the right action or information as you’re replying, right in Google Messages. And if it doesn’t find a relevant suggestion, it won’t disturb you. Magic Cue runs securely and privately through a combination of the Tensor G5 chip and Gemini Nano. You’re in control — you can turn Magic Cue on or off at any time, and control what data it has access to.
Another place you’ll find Magic Cue is in Daily Hub, which you’ll find in your discover feed. Daily Hub is a personalized digest showing what’s coming up on your calendar, relevant topics for you to deep dive on, recommended playlists and more.
3. Build connection across languages with just a call
Voice Translate allows you to break down language barriers during phone calls. Through Tensor G5, our on-device AI translates your call in real time in what sounds like each speaker’s voice, so you can connect to the other person more naturally in their language.
Voice Translate works when translating to or from English with Spanish, German, Japanese, French, Hindi, Italian, Portuguese, Swedish, Russian and Indonesian.
4. Let Pixel take the message
Call Screen continues to be a fan favorite on Pixel, but what about those times where you miss or decline a call? In the Phone app, Take a Message will now give you real-time transcripts for missed or declined calls. It will also use advanced AI to identify next steps for you based on the message — an update that will also come to Call Notes.
5. Get more help from Gemini Live
Since launching with Pixel 9, Google have continued to make updates to Gemini Live. That includes connecting to your favourite Google apps and letting Gemini Live see whatever you see, whether through your phone’s camera or on your screen.
With Pixel 10, Gemini Live can offer even more visual help. Now, when you share your camera, Gemini can not only see what you see, but also provide guidance by highlighting the solution directly on your screen.
And with Google AI Pro, you’ll have access to additional AI-powered features, like video generation in the Gemini app.
6. Level up your notetaking
Google’s AI-powered research assistant, NotebookLM, is now integrated with Pixel Screenshots and Recorder. If Screenshots detects a picture you’ve taken that could be a good fit for your notebook, it will automatically suggest you add it for easy tracking. Similarly, you can now add transcripts from Recorder to your notebook.
7. Take time for yourself in Pixel Journal
With Pixel Journal, you have a private space to focus on your wellbeing, progress toward your goals and build a lifelong practice of reflection. It uses on-device AI to give you writing prompts that help you process your thoughts, and it offers insights into your patterns and progress over time. You can even lock your journal so everything you write remains totally secure and personal.
8. Find writing support right in Gboard
Check your texts and fix writing errors with Writing Tools in Gboard. It’s a new experience that will not only spellcheck what you’re writing, but also offer rewrites in a specified style, like if you need your text to sound more professional or just want to find the perfect emojis to convey what you’re feeling. You can even use voice commands to help rephrase or rewrite the message.
9. Make music with Recorder
If you’re a fan of singing songs or humming ideas into Recorder, you can now transform those creative sparks into music. Just record your vocals and select your desired musical style to create a unique track that suits your vibe.

Using three key personalized metrics – readiness, cardio load, and target cardio load – you can get your fitness training dialed in each day. Readiness lets you know how ready you are to take on a workout, cardio load tracks your heart’s exertion throughout the day, and target load gives you a personalized goal to hit. You’ll know whether to push yourself (and how hard), or let your body recover, so you can progress faster and avoid over- or undertraining.
