Robert Triggs / Android Authority It’s the perfect time of the year to take snaps of pretty, colorful things. But as we know, not every camera captures the same scene in quite the same way. Often, the differences are small, but when it comes to color science, every brand has its own take on what the perfect picture looks like. Despite years of innovation and brand partnerships, it seems impossible to please everyone. Whether it’s Samsung’s historic oversaturation or more modern issues with blan

This Pixel 10 rumor just gave Google an edge over Samsung and OnePlus

zdnet.com Kerry Wan 2025-12-26 10:30:19

Kerry Wan/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways Recent rumors and leaks suggest that the Pixel 10 series will feature magnet-based Qi2 wireless charging. That would position the Google Pixel well above Samsung, Motorola, and OnePlus in charging capabilities. The big question is how fast the charging will be, and how reliable it is compared to the iPhone's MagSafe.
