Here’s a look at the unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen’s hidden note-taking trick

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-24 18:14:30

Charlie Callow TL;DR An unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen has surfaced, and its tail button can be configured to launch Android’s default notes app in a floating bubble. Getting the button to function requires pairing the stylus via Bluetooth and then enabling a specific developer option and setting a default notes app. The pen currently doesn’t work with Google Keep, and despite the accessory’s appearance, there is still no official news about a Pixel Tablet successor.

Google’s unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen had its own magnetic sleeve

TL;DR An X (formerly Twitter) user got their hands on an unreleased Pixel Tablet Pen with the full packaging. It includes a full manual for the device. The stylus would have shipped with a magnetic sleeve that attaches to the back of the tablet. Once upon a time, Google planned to release a stylus for its Android tablet called the Pixel Tablet Pen. However, after the Pixel Tablet 2 was canceled, those plans completely evaporated. Although the Pen never saw the light of day, the unreleased dev

8 settings I changed on my Google Pixel phone to extend the battery life by hours

zdnet.com Jason Howell 2025-08-25 02:41:00

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Pixel phones have an excellent reputation for smart software, but battery life has been a common complaint with Google's smartphones. Thankfully, that same smart software is now improving battery life and longevity, though many features aren't set up for maximum endurance out of the box. I've found that a handful of features can dramatically improve how long your Pixel lasts, both in a single day and over the long haul. Also: I've owned every Google Pixel flagship phone since t

Just because I like Pixels doesn’t mean I hate Samsung

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-25 22:00:03

It’s one of the oldest rivalries in the consumer world: Coke vs Pepsi. If I told you I prefer Coke, would you then assume I hate Pepsi? Any sane person would answer “no” to that question. “It’s just a preference,” they’d say. For some reason, though, that same logic doesn’t always seem to apply in the tech world, especially when it comes to smartphones.

Google Pixel Buds 2a leak suggests price hike could be on the cards

Lil Katz / Android Authority TL;DR A reliable website has revealed more Pixel Buds 2a renders and apparent European pricing. The images give us a closer look at the earbuds and charging case. The Pixel Buds 2a will apparently start at €149 in Europe, making it significantly more expensive than the original model.

Google wants you to forget about its Pixel battery issues. Here’s why you shouldn’t

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-24 14:35:25

Several Google Pixel models have suffered significant battery issues over the past eight months. This has manifested in Pixel-A series, with phones catching fire or suffering from swollen batteries. But I can forgive you if you didn’t know about it. Google has tried extremely hard to sweep this issue under the rug, preferring that it didn’t exist and pretending it’s not a big deal. However, I can’t overstate enough why you really shouldn’t let the company off the hook. Do you think Google has

I just want a new Pixel Stand with my Pixel 10, Google

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-25 22:00:33

Robert Triggs / Android Authority The Pixel Stand debuted alongside the Pixel 3 and 3XL almost seven years ago, and it was my favorite accessory for those phones. Adding useful Google Assistant features and faster Qi charging made it a must-have accessory for Pixels, and I used it every day. Outside of the iPhone and HMD Skyline supporting MagSafe and Qi2, respectively, wireless charging has been stagnant since then. 2021’s Pixel Stand 2 made some minor improvements to the Pixel Stand formula,

TL;DR Last year, Google canceled its plans for the Pixel Tablet 2, leaving the fate of the company’s Pixel stylus unclear. This summer, that stylus has started popping up at online retailers, now branded as the Pixel Tablet Pen. The pen works fine with the existing Pixel Tablet, but not all its features appear fully implemented. Google’s approach right now towards Android on screens larger than our phones is confusing, to put it mildly. On one hand, we’ve got Android’s increasingly impressive

Everything to Remember Before Watching ‘Alien: Earth’

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2025-08-29 18:00:56

One of the best things about the new show, Alien: Earth, is that you do not need to be an Alien superfan to enjoy it. It’s not dependent on the plots of the seven-plus films in the franchise and is only connected to them in a few tangential ways. For now, at least. Nevertheless, there are a few things worth keeping in mind as we get closer to the August 12 debut. Here they are. The overview The Alien franchise began in 1979 with Ridley Scott’s film, Alien.
