Here are a few invaders it can generate: While showing friends how it works, I realized the process would look great animated. So I decided to write

Last-minute Pixel 10 leak suggests controversial change is really happening

Google TL;DR A new leak appears to show Pixel 10 packaging with a message about eSIM setup. The image would support earlier claims that most Pixel 10 models may drop physical SIM trays. The Pixel 10 Pro Fold is still expected to support hardware SIMs. With the Google Pixel 10 series launch less than 24 hours away, one question that remains after the many leaks and rumors is whether the phones will ditch physical SIM cards. A new image from reliable leaker Evan Blass might be our biggest clue

I've bought every flagship Google Pixel phone since the first - but 2025 has me reconsidering

Kerry Wan/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways The Google Pixel 10 is expected to receive significant upgrades this year, including a dedicated telephoto lens. Greater feature parity with the Pro models, combined with no expected price increases, makes the standard Pixel an enticing option. It still won't be the best option for power users, especially if you want the most capable camera system from Google.

Ted Raimi Says a ‘Xena’ Reboot Would Have to Take Inspiration From ‘Cobra Kai’

Growing up in the ’90s, serialized heroines were big on the small screen with Xena: Warrior Princess and Buffy the Vampire Slayer—heck, even Sabrina the Teenage Witch. After Netflix’s dark Sabrina reboot and the new Buffy in the works with Sarah Michelle Gellar returning to mentor a new chosen one, all we need now is to see Xena ride again. And that might be on the verge of happening. The cast and creative team behind Xena recently participated in an oral history of the show for Entertainment W

Live Updates From the ‘Made by Google’ Pixel Event 🔴

The time has come for Google’s “Made by Google” event. On Wednesday, Aug. 20, Google will once again unveil a family of new Pixel devices, and this time we’d bet good money that its AI chatbot, Gemini, will be in the driver’s seat. Unless Google plans to pull a rabbit out of a hat, we’re not expecting any hardware surprises. A steady stream of leaks (and Google’s own teaser videos) over the past several months has all but revealed everything there is to know about the expected Pixel 10 family o

Goodbye purple moons: One UI 8 beta 5 hits the Galaxy S25

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung is releasing the fifth One UI 8 beta to Galaxy S25 devices. The update has a download size of about 1.79GB and includes various bug fixes. This update fixes the issue where the moon would turn purple when taking pictures at 100x zoom. Another beta has arrived for the Galaxy S25 series. It’s the fifth One UI 8 beta to hit the Galaxy S25, which comes only a few weeks after Samsung released the previous beta. As expected, this update carries various

TL;DR Google launches the Pixel 10 series at its Made by Google event tomorrow afternoon. The company is streaming the whole thing live at 1pm Eastern. Android Authority is doing its own live commentary on the stream, as well as a post-event breakdown. It’s happening! In less than a day, Google takes the stage in Brooklyn — with a little help from Jimmy Fallon — to introduce the world to the Pixel 10. This is easily the Pixel launch we’ve been most anticipating in years, featuring hardware po

10 Pixels in, the purpose of a Google-made smartphone remains the same

Google didn't need to make its own smartphone. Even though the company spent several years having other manufacturers build phones it could slap its "Nexus" branding on, selling hardware is not core to Google's business. Things like advertising and Search still handily dwarf the inroads the company's made as a smartphone manufacturer, and that will likely remain true for the foreseeable future. Compared to the contributions the iPhone makes to Apple's bottom line, the Pixel has always, in some

Changing these 10 settings on my Pixel phone greatly improved the user experience

Even older Pixel models can get in on the optimization tweaks. Kerry Wan/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways Google Pixel phones are notorious for having hidden settings that can greatly enhance the user experience. The list includes options for ramping up the display refresh rate, optimizing the battery life, and gestures. I demo them on a Pixel 9a running on Android 15, but newer and older software versions should have similar capabilities. Get more in-depth ZDNET tech coverage: Add us as a prefe

As a Pixel expert, here are 5 reasons you shouldn’t pre-order a Pixel 10 tomorrow

Google is getting ready to unveil its four new Pixel 10 phones tomorrow, and, unlike several of my Android Authority colleagues who think the phones aren’t exciting — even boring — I personally think there’s a lot to look forward to. I love that we’re getting built-in Qi2 charging, a new TSMC-made processor, larger batteries and faster charging, and proper tele zoom on the base Pixel 10. The 100x zoom on the Pro phones also feeds into my addiction to snap photos from very far away in sports stad

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Jimmy Fallon has teased some secret product drops at the Pixel 10 launch event Fallon will be hosting the launch in Brooklyn, New York, on August 20. Google has also teased appearances from NBA superstar Stephen Curry, Formula 1 driver Lando Norris, and the Jonas Brothers Google’s upcoming Made by Google 2025 event is shaping up to be more of a late-night show than a tech keynote. The company previously confirmed that Jimmy Fallon would appear at the big

Pixel 10 Pro XL benchmark leaks are making people mad

TL;DR A Redditor has posted images showing benchmark scores for an apparent Pixel 10 Pro XL versus the Pixel 9 Pro XL. The scores suggest that the Tensor G5 CPU won’t catch up to Snapdragon 8 Elite phones. One result also strongly suggests that the Pixel 10 series could have an inferior GPU to last year’s Pixels. Google will reveal its Pixel 10 phones tomorrow (August 20), and we expect all of them to be powered by the Tensor G5 processor. This is a landmark chip for the company, as it’s the

TL;DR The prices of the Pixel 10 series and Pixel Watch have leaked for Mexico and Europe. The price is said to start at €899 for Europe and MXN19,999 in Mexico. Google may not sell the Pixel 10 Pro Fold in Mexico. There’s not much left to leak about the Pixel 10 series at this point. We’re only days away from the launch, and everything, from the specs to the wallpapers, has pretty much been revealed.

Google Pixel 10 launch event: New phones, foldables and watches at the Made by Google event

After largely focusing Google I/O 2025 on the ways the company wants Gemini to change everything from searching the web to filmmaking, Google is finally ready to launch new hardware. The next Made by Google event is on the books for August 20, and Google has already confirmed what at least one of its new Pixel 10 phones will look like.

I love my Samsung Z Fold 7, but these Google Pixel upgrades would win me over

The Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold (left) competed with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 (right) last summer. Kerry Wan/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways The Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold is expected to launch on August 20, but it might not go on sale till October 9. It will be difficult for Google to beat Samsung in the foldable segment this year due to design differences.

Pixel 9 Pro Fold one year later: How Google caught up to Samsung in just two generations

The Pixel 9 Pro Fold was one of my favorite gadgets of 2024 to the point where it even landed on our list of the biggest winners of the year. Not only was it a worthy alternative to Samsung's long-running Galaxy Z Fold phones, its straightforward design once again proved that keeping things simple is often the wisest way to go. It turns out, the best approach to foldable phone design is to make something that's the same size and shape as a regular handset, but just happens to have a big flexible
