A new AAPI Data/AP-NORC poll finds that anxiety about costs and affordability is particularly high among Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders and Native Hawaiians. That's true even at a moment when economic stress is widespread. The survey found that about half of Asian American and Pacific Islander adults said they wanted the government to prioritize addressing the high cost of living and inflation in 2026, compared to about one-third of U.S. adults overall in a separate AP-NORC survey. The findings indicate that this small but fast-growing subgroup is not convinced by President Donald Trump’s attempts to tamp down worries about inflation and defend his tariffs. Like Americans overall, AAPI adults have also become more focused on health care issues over the past year.

Samsung Galaxy S26 Leaks: A new set of images is giving people an early look at Samsung’s next flagship phone. The device looks almost real, but it is likely a dummy model made for case makers and accessory brands. Even so, it offers a clear idea of what the Galaxy S26 Ultra may look like. The phone appears thinner, more premium, and more modern than before. With the launch expected in late February, this leak is adding to the buzz and giving fans a reason to get excited about what Samsung is planning next.Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra New Design LeakThe images were shared by well-known leaker, SaudiAndroid, who posted photos of what seems to be a Galaxy S26 Ultra dummy unit. These models are usually made so brands can test cases and screen protectors before the real phone arrives. They often match the final design very closely.اسلم اسلم 🔥#GalaxyS26Ultra pic.twitter.com/2l4xMwtwRu— سعودي أندرويد (@SaudiAndroid) January 20, 2026The biggest change is on the back. The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra now shows a pill-shaped camera island that holds three of the four lenses. This is different from the separate camera rings seen on the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The camera bump looks large, but that is mainly because the phone is slimmer, not because the cameras are bigger.The dummy unit appears in a colour called “Silver Shadow,” which is rumoured to be one of five shades. The real phone is expected to have slightly softer and more rounded corners, making it nicer to hold in the hand.Even though this is not the final product, it gives a very realistic preview. If this design is accurate, Samsung is going for a cleaner and more modern look this year.Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra Launch, Features, & Price TalkLeaks suggest Samsung will unveil the Galaxy S26 series on February 25, with sales starting March 11. That means more official-looking material should start leaking very soon.The camera hardware may stay mostly the same, but Samsung is said to improve image processing. Photos should look more natural and less over-edited. This could fix one of the biggest complaints from users.The phone may also support Qi2 wireless charging. This helps chargers align better and allows snap-on accessories. Another rumoured feature is a privacy display, where the screen is visible only when viewed straight on.Pricing is a concern. Samsung knows that higher prices can push buyers toward Apple or Chinese brands. However, rising part costs may force a price increase. Even future iPhones are expected to cost more.If the Galaxy S26 Ultra becomes more expensive, Samsung will need to give users a strong reason to upgrade.

After Spudulike closed in 2024, the reign of the jacket potato seemed over in the UK. But now the favourite is back, piled with new toppings, sold by new companies and promoted all over social media by potato influencersThey were once a lunch option that inspired little excitement – but the jacket potato’s time has finally come. After decades in epicurean exile, the humble spud has made a roaring comeback in the UK and piqued the interest of foodies across the world. A-listers, tourists and trend-hopping teenagers are queueing for hours to get their hands on them. For Jacob Nelson, who sells loaded spuds that have gone super-viral on social media, this was all part of the plan. “We thought: how can we make the jacket potato sexy again?” he says.The 30-year-old, who runs SpudBros with his brother Harley and dad Tony, was among the first crop of social-media savvy spud vendors to give the jacket potato a much-needed makeover. After a slow start in lockdown, the brothers spoke to some youngsters in Preston Flag Market, where they had set up shop, to find out why they were shunning spuds. “It was an absolute ghost town,” says Harley. “We spoke to one student walking past us. He said to get on social media.” The pair listened, filming their interactions with customers while showing off their mouthwatering loaded spuds, and subsequently went stratospheric on TikTok in 2023.
