I love the OnePlus 13, but the official wireless charger is just maddening

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-22 05:00:50

Robert Triggs / Android Authority I’m a chaotic gadget charger, topping up my phone as and when rather than sticking to a rigorous overnight routine like a normal person. As such, you might think that wireless charging would be right up my street — pop the phone down, give it a little juice, and be back on my way. Unfortunately, wireless charging is notoriously slow, meaning that even half an hour on the dock is seldom enough for me. Thankfully, a few brands, mainly from China, offer fast(er)

5 things I learned from revamping my smart home

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority Recently, when I started renovating my home, I knew it was the perfect time to rebuild my smart home from scratch. I’ve been on the smart home bandwagon for years, but cobbling together IoT products is never the right approach. Some things work, some don’t, and some don’t work quite as well as you’d want them to. The best smart homes are the ones you never have to think about. Over the years, I’d pieced together a mix of gadgets, platforms that included Alexa

iOS 26 proves that Android still has a software update problem

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-23 04:00:57

Joe Maring / Android Authority This week’s iOS 26 announcement sure was an odd one, wasn’t it? Between the controversial Liquid Glass redesign and the big name jump from iOS 18 to iOS 26, this year’s iPhone update is already proving to be one of the most peculiar we’ve seen in a while. Overall reactions to iOS 26 have been a mixed bag so far, and with an update this drastic, that’s to be expected.
