‘The White Lotus’ Season 3: When to Watch Episode 7 on Max
The Thailand vacation is almost over, but you can stream the season’s first six episodes on Max right now.

Are you enjoying your stay at The White Lotus? Mike White’s Emmy-winning social satire has called Thailand its home for season 3. As we’ve seen from the previous two installments (the first season was set in Hawaii, and the second season took place in Sicily), a sinister underbelly lurks beneath the surface when a White Lotus hotel is involved. If you didn’t know, class warfare is an unlisted amenity.
The eight-episode installment has featured a talented ensemble cast of mostly new faces. Leslie Bibb, Carrie Coon, Walton Goggins, Sarah Catherine Hook, Jason Isaacs, Michelle Monaghan, Sam Nivola, Lek Patravadi, Parker Posey, Natasha Rothwell and Patrick Schwarzenegger (yes — Arnold’s son) star alongside many others. Let’s not forget Sam Rockwell’s cameo and revealing monologue.
When it comes to returning cast members, The White Lotus season three sees Natasha Rothwell reprises her role as massage therapist Belinda from Season 1 and Jon Gries is back as Greg. Creator Mike White returned once again to write and direct all eight episodes.

How to watch The White Lotus Season 3 with a VPN
If you travel abroad and want to watch your favorite shows, a VPN (Virtual Private Network) can help keep your online activities private and safe. A VPN encrypts your internet traffic, which stops your internet service provider from slowing down your speeds. It also protects you when you connect to public Wi-Fi networks, keeping your devices and login information secure.
VPNs are legal in many countries, including the United States and Canada. They can improve your online privacy and security. However, some streaming services do not allow VPN access to content that’s specific to certain regions. Before using a VPN for streaming, check the platform’s terms of service to ensure you follow the rules.
You may decide to use a VPN. If so, make sure to carefully follow the installation instructions from your provider. This will help you connect securely while following all necessary laws and agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access if they detect a VPN. It is crucial to verify whether your streaming subscription allows the use of a VPN.

Here’s When Your T-Mobile Data Breach Settlement Check Is Coming
During a cyberattack in 2021, the personal data of 76 million US customers was exposed.
Years have passed since T-Mobile customers filed for a part of the wireless carrier’s 2022 class-action settlement. But starting next month, those who qualify should begin to see their payments arrive. The settlement is the result of a class-action lawsuit filed against T-Mobile after a 2021 cyberattack exposed the personal data (names, addresses and social security numbers) of 76 million US customers. In 2022, T-Mobile agreed to a $350 million settlement to resolve claims that its negligence led to the data breach. It remains the second-largest data breach settlement in US history, following Equifax’s $700 million settlement in 2019.
How much will each person get?
If your data was exposed but you haven’t already filed, it’s too late to get in on the settlement. It’s all over except for the distribution of the checks. T-Mobile agreed to pay $350 million into a settlement fund that will be used to make cash payments for out-of-pocket losses and lost time, make cash payments, provide identity-defense services, provide restoration services, make payments to notify class members and administer the settlement, pay the class representatives who brought the suit, and pay attorney fees and costs.
According to The Hill, payments might be smaller than $25 for some, as priority will go to those who can prove they suffered out-of-pocket losses. Those who made a valid claim for identity-defense services will be sent information on how to activate those services. Monetary payments will be made in the manner each customer selected at the time they filed, which could mean a paper check will be mailed, or a digital deposit will be made. You can read the full documents for the lawsuit online.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge: Everything We Know About the Upcoming Slimmer Phone
Samsung’s thinner take on the Galaxy S25 Edge is coming sometime later this year.
Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge is set to kick off a year of premium phones that spotlight a thin and light design. The S25 Edge stole the spotlight from the rest of the S25 lineup during Samsung’s January event, and will arrive as other companies begin to announce their own thin phone concepts. This slimmer edition of the Galaxy S25 was available for attendees to see after Samsung’s keynote, but the phone hasn’t yet been available for a hands-on.
While the Galaxy S25 Ultra and the regular S25 and S25 Plus are now available, we are still waiting for more details about the Edge phone, which is set for release later this year.
Here’s everything we know so far, along with some rumors on what we could get with the S25 Edge.
What does the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge look like?
The Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge’s actual dimensions aren’t yet available, but a display showcasing a first look at the phone shows that it’s noticeably slimmer than a standard Android flagship phone. Samsung placed its first look at the Edge alongside stand-in models that approximated the typical thickness of other phones.
This implied that the S25 Edge would have similar height and width dimensions to phones similar to the standard Galaxy S25 but would be noticeably slimmer. Unlike other S25 phones that have three or more rear cameras, this edition will include only two, like the foldable Z Flip series.
The S25 Edge also will prioritize durability despite its thinner frame, according to Samsung UK Marketing Director Annika Bizon. After remarking on the phone’s design that was revealed in January as a top feature, Bizon began teasing the phone’s durability during an interview with TechRadar at Mobile World Congress 2025.
«With anything slim, durability [has to come as part of the package]. Those are the two features [of the Edge] that are exciting [for us]. Well, I know durability isn’t exciting, but it’s really important. So watch this space because there are some exciting things to come regarding this phone,» Bizon told TechRadar.
We don’t have any other specs at the moment but it’s possible this phone will sacrifice other attributes to maintain its slimmer frame.
When will the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge arrive in stores?
A specific release date has not yet been revealed for the new phone, but according to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, the Edge should be arriving in the US and other markets by the middle of 2025. Samsung’s TM Roh, the company’s president of mobile devices, told Bloomberg that the Edge would be one of at least two new devices on the way, including a mixed reality headset that will run on Android XR.
Should that release period pan out, we might see the S25 Edge arrive around the summer, which is when Samsung typically unveils its foldable phones and new Galaxy Watches.
How much will the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge cost?
In the same Bloomberg report, Roh said that pricing wasn’t settled by Samsung yet, but that the Edge is expected to be cheaper than the $1,300 Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.
«Our goal is to position this at pricing that is lower than the Ultra models, so it’s more accessible and has more customers,» Roh said in the report.
Will the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge include a curved screen like prior Galaxy Edge phones?
Samsung used to use the Edge name to delineate Galaxy phones that had a curved screen. This included Edge editions of the Samsung Galaxy S6, S7 and the Galaxy Note. While the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge appears to be a revival of the name, it does not imply a curved edge display.
If you are looking for a phone with a curved edge display, though, last year’s Motorola Edge and the OnePlus 12 each include displays that wrap around the edges.
What Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge rumors are out there?
Current speculation about the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge pertains to the phone’s cameras but little appears to have gained traction as of this writing.
According to GSMArena’s report citing a post on X by user PandaFlashPro, the phone could have a 200-megapixel main camera alongside a 12-megapixel ultrawide one. If that were to be true, its main camera would be comparable to what’s seen on the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra.
What about Apple’s rumored iPhone 17 Slim?
Apple’s rumored to be developing its own slimmer take on the iPhone, and it’s possible that Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Edge could beat it to the market. We have an entirely different rumor roundup on what we’ve heard about a possible iPhone 17 Slim, which might replace the «Plus» edition of the iPhone that Apple’s been releasing since the iPhone 14.
