Digital car keys? Just see what Samsung is planning for its phones
Samsung is seeking to apply its digital technology to all areas of human activity where it may be suitable. The latest news is that the South Korean technology group is seeking to enter the automotive industry through its smartphone. Whether it is interested in creating a Tesla similar to an electric car is unclear, but it will definitely consider introducing digital car keys into its smartphones. Just to refresh the memory, Samsung announced plans to introduce digital car key technology to its mobile phones during the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S21. Now, just a few weeks later, Samsung has finally begun to add support for this feature.
Samsung said that support for ultra-wideband (UWB) and NFC-enabled digital car keys will be available in South Korea first, and can only be activated with one car, the all-electric Genesis GV60.
On devices that support UWB, such as Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus and Ultra, Note 20 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Fold 2 and 3, Samsung promises “passive entry”, which means you can unlock and lock the car without unplugging your phone or pockets. Samsung is now using UWB and NFC for its mobile phones, digital car keys, and its two main functions for finding items using its Galaxy SmartTag announced in January. This puts it in parallel with Apple, which introduced a digital car key supported by the U1 chip and iOS 14. With your mobile phone nearby, you can also start the car and adjust the rearview mirror, seat, etc. The digital key will be stored in the Samsung pass and protected by an “embedded secure element (eSE)”, which, according to Samsung, can be shared with anyone running Android 11 and downloading its application. This is equivalent to using a car in a region now, but Samsung has established partnerships with Audi, BMW and Ford. Hope these automakers can increase their support as soon as possible, because Genesis has broken the seal. In addition, because Samsung supports NFC buttons, older Galaxy phones running Android 11 should be able to have fun with it.

Tom Holland to star alongside Matt Damon in Christopher Nolan’s next, will juggle that with Spider-Man 4 in 2025
Tom Holland, last seen in Apple TV show The Crowded Room last year, has signed his next with Academy Award-winning filmmaker Christopher Nolan.
Tom Holland is going to have a very busy 2025. As per The Hollywood Reporter, the actor has signed Christopher Nolan’s next, which he will juggle the filming of with that of the long-awaited Spider-Man 4. (Also Read – Tom Holland shares why he left alcohol behind: ‘Struggling without booze…’)
Tom signs Nolan’s next
This will mark the first collaboration between Tom and Christopher. While details of his next directorial aren’t known yet, it’s most likely not to have a contemporary setting. It’ll be either set in the past like, his previous film Oppenheimer (2023), or in the future like Interstellar (2014). Matt Damon, who has worked with Christopher in both, has also come on board his next.
Christopher’s next will be co-produced by him and his wife Emma Thomas’ banner Syncopy Inc and Universal Pictures, as the two production houses will team up after the Academy Award-winning blockbuster Oppenheimer last year. Prior to Oppenheimer, Christopher collaborated mostly with Warner Bros before having a fallout post the debacle of Tenet (2020).
Warner Bros then went on to produce Greta Gerwig’s musical satire Barbie, which clashed with Oppenheimer at the box office and even outperformed it globally. Warner Bros offered Christopher a cheque for the fees he waived off for helming Tenet during the pandemic. While Christopher graciously accepted the belated remuneration, he still went on to pitch his next to Warner Bros.
Tom’s busy schedule
Tom didn’t have any release this year. His last outing was Todd Graff’s psychological thriller show The Crowded Room on Apple TV last year. He’ll juggle the filming of Christopher Nolan’s next and Spider-Man 4 in 2025. Tom has been playing the superhero ever since Russo Brothers’ 2016 blockbuster Captain America: Civil War. He’s slipped into the Peter Parker shoes post that for three standalone films and two Avengers movies. Spider-Man 4 will be helmed by Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings director Destin Daniel Cretton.
As Tom’s girlfriend and co-star Zendaya will be busy filming Spider-Man 4 in 2025, she’ll reprise her role of Chani in Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi spectacle Dune 3 only in 2026. Meanwhile, Tom is also likely to make an appearance as Spider-Man in Russo Brothers’ Avengers: Doomsday, which will go on floors in the spring of 2025.
