I've tested dozens of wearables and the Apple Watch 10 is one of my favorites - here's why

ZDNET's key takeaways I tested the 46mm Apple Watch Series 10 model, priced at $529. The new watch body is charmingly thin, the larger display is lovely, fast charging is greatly appreciated. Battery life remains rated for 18 hours, and the watch is still missing some software features found on the Watch Ultra 2.

The Pixel 10 could feature Google’s fastest fingerprint scanner yet

TL;DR According to a new report, the Pixel 10 series may feature a faster ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. The upgrade builds on the tech introduced in last year’s Pixel 9 phones. Other rumored features include the Tensor G5 chip, better image stabilization, and the debut of Magic Cue. Amongst other upgrades, the Pixel 9 series was the first range of Google Pixel phones to feature an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor. If a new rumor proves accurate, the Pixel 10 series will build on that foundation

Here’s a leaked Pixel 10 Pro case on a Pixel 9 Pro

TL;DR We have obtained a case for the unreleased Google Pixel 10 Pro. To test it out, we put a Pixel 9 Pro into the case. The Pixel 9 Pro fits, but there are a lot of changes that make it not ideal to swap cases between the two devices. We expect Google to announce the new Pixel 10 series in the coming weeks. As usual, we’ve already seen plenty of leaks surrounding the phones, including a nearly-retail-ready device and a likely retail-ready version in a behind-the-scenes clip from a commercia

Google just made an iPhone tease the Pixel 10 in its latest ‘Best Phones Forever’ ad

Android Headlines/OnLeaks TL;DR Google has teased the Pixel 10 for the first time in a new “Best Phones Forever” ad, but an iPhone is actually doing the marketing. The ad pokes fun at Apple’s recently announced Pixel-inspired iOS 26 features, including Live Translation for messages, Hold Assist, and Call Screening. The cheeky teaser for Google’s next set of flagships comes right at the end. Google has released another “Best Phones Forever” ad, and this time, it’s not just a playful jab at Ap

Google’s up to some monkey business with these Pixel 12 codenames

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Possible codenames for Google’s Pixel 12 series have just leaked: Galago, Sasquatch, Silverback, and Capuchin. These primate-themed names would follow the Pixel 11’s bear names and Pixel 10’s horse names. Expect the same sort of four-device lineup, including a foldable, for Google’s 2027 launch. In just a couple more months, we’re looking forward to meeting Google’s Pixel 10 lineup. We’ve already seen lots of good reasons to be excited about this year

Pixel 10 camera leak reveals Google’s trick for better close-ups

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR A new report claims the Pixel 10 will use telemacro photography. The ultrawide cameras may also retain macro functionality. There have been plenty of leaks regarding the Pixel 10 series, especially when it comes to the camera situation. Android Authority previously revealed the camera specs for the entire series. But new information is still coming out, like Google possibly giving the device tele-macro capabilities. According to a report from Android Head

ZDNET's key takeaways The Redmagic 10S Pro will be available now, starting at $699. The 10S Pro harnesses impressive power, making it an absolute delight for gamers and power users.

'End of 10' offers hope and support to Windows 10 users who can't upgrade their PCs

End of 10 Windows 10, it's almost time to bid you adieu. Support ends soon, and many of those PCs simply aren't powerful enough to run the successor to what has been one of the most widely used desktop OSes on the planet. But users have choices. They can purchase a new computer, one with enough oomph to run Windows 11 (an expensive proposition in an unstable economy). They can run the risk of using an unsupported OS (not wise in a world that is getting ever more dangerous). They can install

I test tablets for a living and this is the Samsung tablet I recommend the most

ZDNET's key takeaways The Samsung Galaxy Tab S10 FE+ is a 13.1-inch tablet for $649. It's a good iPad Air alternative for Android users, with reliable performance, a larger display than the S10+, and an IP68 rating that the iPad lacks; it also includes the S Pen. The price increased by $50 for the base model compared to last year, and the tablet now has a single rear camera rather than the precious dual cameras.

13 Best Laptops of 2025, Tested and Reviewed

Other Good Laptops We’ve Tested Dell 14 Plus Photograph: Luke Larsen Dell 14 Plus for $1,100: This is the first laptop in Dell's major rebranding effort, and this one is a follow-up to the Dell Inspiron Plus 14. The Dell 14 Plus (6/10, WIRED Review) is a solidly midrange laptop, meaning it sports a clean but generic design and solid performance, without some of the bells and whistles that make laptops feel premium. The IPS screen is decent, as is the performance and battery life. The only real

$100 Hamburger

Aviation slang $100 hamburger ("hundred-dollar hamburger") is aviation slang for the excuse a general aviation pilot might use to fly.[1][2] Background [ edit ] A $100 hamburger trip typically involves flying a short distance (less than two hours), eating at an airport restaurant, and then flying home. "$100" originally referred to the approximate cost of renting or operating a light general aviation aircraft, such as a Cessna 172, for the time it took to fly round-trip to a nearby airport. H

Has the Pixel battery drama ruined your perception of Google’s phones?

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority 🗣️ This is an open thread. We want to hear from you! Share your thoughts in the comments and vote in the poll below — your take might be featured in a future roundup. The Google Pixel series is regarded by many as the pinnacle of the Android experience, offering excellent imaging smarts and plenty of AI features under the hood.

Google won’t be showing the Pixel 10 to Superfans this month, after all

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Google invited Pixel Superfans to apply for a chance to experience “pre-release Pixel devices” at a June 27 event. The company is now telling them that due to “unforeseen circumstances” it’s planning a September 4 event. It’s unclear if release plans have been affected any, but the last leak we’ve seen points to a mid-August launch. Google’s Pixel 10 smartphones are on their way, and other than feeling a wee bit nervous about Pixel batteries in genera

Sony WH-1000XM6 vs. Bose QuietComfort Ultra: Which Is Best?

Every couple of years, Bose and Sony trade blows in an effort to claim the title of the best noise-canceling headphones you can buy. Until recently, Bose's QuietComfort Ultra (9/10, WIRED Recommends) had the edge, offering world-crushing cancellation that bested Sony's still-great WH-1000XM5 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) and other top models from the likes of JBL, Sonos, and Apple. Now, Sony's back with its latest WH-1000 model, the predictably titled WH-1000XM6 (9/10, WIRED Recommends). The new pai

How I used this portable, ink-free printer to declutter my workstation (and it's 60% off)

ZDNET's key takeaways This battery-powered printer is perfect for taking on the road, and it connects to devices using Bluetooth or USB Thermal printing means there are no ink cartridges to replace, but the downside is the printer cannot use regular paper Installing the Windows and Mac drivers is a bit painful and unintuitive. $69.91 at Amazon I like to joke that whenever someone asks me if I own a printer, I say, "I don't need one where I live."

Pomera's typewriter smashes crowdfunding target, brings distraction-free writing to the US

Something to look forward to: Another device is joining the list of distraction-free digital typewriters. The Pomera D250 has been available in Japan since 2022, where it's proven very popular. Now, thanks to a successful crowdfunding campaign, it's coming to the US for writers who prefer not having the entire internet distracting them. There have been numerous Pomera models since the first was released in 2008, and the DM-250 is said to be the best yet. As with other devices of this ilk, the

Netflix's 'Leaving Soon' Label Is Enough to Give Some Very Random Titles a Major Boost

Every week, Netflix reveals its Top 10 lists, ranking its most-viewed movies and TV shows. While many of these top titles are expected, others can surprise; here's where we try to make sense of those seemingly random hits. "I read this post on Reddit" is always a risky way to start a conversation, but here I go… I recently saw a Reddit thread from a few years ago where a poster suggested that Netflix create an entire category on its homepage to showcase content that's leaving the platform soon.
