Google will throttle your Pixel 10’s battery, and there’s nothing you can do about it

TL;DR Google has confirmed that its Battery Health Assistance feature can’t be turned off on the Pixel 10 phones. This feature gradually reduces your phone’s charging speed and battery to “stabilize” battery performance and aging. This also comes after a string of Pixel A series phones suffered from major battery issues. Google introduced a Battery Health Assistance feature on the Pixel 9a earlier this year. This feature gradually drops your phone’s charging speed and battery voltage in the n

Pixel 10’s new trick makes photo editing as easy as typing

In 2023, Google rolled out a Pixel feature called

I held the Pixel 10 Pro Fold and these are the 4 things that impressed me about it

I won’t deny that the first leaks of the Pixel 10 Pro Fold’s renders and dimensions left a sour taste in my mouth. I was expecting Google to repeat what it did with the Pixel 9 Pro Fold — one of my favorite foldables from last year — and release a slimmer, more powerful workhorse. If Samsung had finally woken up and understood that lighter weight and single-handed comfort and usability were paramount for foldables, it only made sense that Google would answer back with a better proposition. Alas,

Pixel 10 vs Pixel 9: Here’s why I’m tempted to upgrade

Autumn isn’t usually the time to compare a newly launched phone to its direct predecessor. The upgrades over a device from a year ago are typically so minimal that one should stick to their existing phone for a couple more years before considering an upgrade. But the new Pixel 10 is a little different this time around. The Pixel 10 is getting improvements in nearly every single department, making it feel like a proper generational leap. On an individual level, these may seem like little upgrade

Gemini Live is becoming a more helpful digital assistant that can match your mood

TL;DR Google is enhancing Gemini Live with visual overlays that highlight objects in your camera feed and a new audio model for more natural conversations.

I’ve used the three Pixel 10 slab phones, and I’ll say this: Don’t judge a book by its cover

It’s hard to believe we are on the tenth generation of Pixel phones. Not only is it hard to believe because the OG Pixel launched nine years ago (seriously; I’m so old), but also because it’s so rare for Google to actually stick with any kind of product for that long. Regardless, here we are with the Google Pixel 10 series — and it might just be the company’s most important launch ever. I had the opportunity to go hands-on with all the devices launched at the 2025 Made by Google event, but here

5 reasons I’d get the Pixel 10 over the Pixel 9a

The Pixel 10 has just launched, and it’s already turning out to be everyone’s darling. The phone feels like a big step up from its predecessor on nearly every front, so much so that Google’s budget champ, the Pixel 9a, feels like it’s been left further behind. And honestly, it doesn’t even look like part of the family either without that recognizable camera visor. It’s a close cousin at best. With their apparent differences, you already sort of expect that I’d prefer the Pixel 10 over the 9a, w

5 reasons I’d get the Pixel 10 Pro Fold over the Galaxy Fold 7

When the Galaxy Z Fold 7 arrived earlier this year, I recommended it over the Pixel 9 Pro Fold thanks to its superior processing power, slimmer and lighter design, and impressive camera upgrades. Now that the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is here, the game changes again — but which is the better buy when it comes to Pixel 10 Pro Fold vs Galaxy Z Fold 7? Good question. Honestly, it’s a closer call this time, largely because the Fold 7 still gets so much right. Even so, the Pixel 10 Pro Fold is a strong step

Pixel 10 Pro Fold hands-on: Forget thinness, Google is going hard on durability

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold was a revelation. Not only did Google switch to a simpler design while adding a larger main display, the company caught up to Samsung's long-running foldable line in just two generations. However, for its third go — the Pixel 10 Pro Fold — Google is opting for a different strategy than we’ve seen recently on the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Instead of focusing on thinness, Google may have just created the most rugged foldable on the market. That’s due in large part to the phone’s new I

Google's Pixel 10 'Camera Coach' uses AI to help you take the best photos

With the arrival of the Pixel 10, the spotlight is on the cameras that Google's phones are known for. Compared to the Pixel 9's dramatic camera bump, however, this year's improvements are mainly iterative. The base model got the biggest hardware update with the addition of a third camera.
