Turns out it’s possible to get a Pixel 10 with a physical SIM slot in the US

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-20 13:36:12

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Google is reportedly sending out global Pixel 10 models with physical SIM slots as replacement units to users. These global models lack support for mmWave 5G. While some people are viewing this as an upgrade, others are concerned about connectivity issues. If you bought a Pixel 10, 10 Pro, or 10 Pro XL in the US, your phone came without a physical SIM slot. That’s the standard for US models of Google’s latest flagships. Instead of having a traditional

Last-minute leak spoils Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S11 surprise

Ryan Whitwam / Android Authority TL;DR A last-minute leak has revealed images and features of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 series. It looks like Samsung is skipping the Plus model this year in favor of the base and Ultra variants. Samsung is expected to launch the new tablets at its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event.

I’d be more excited about the Pixel 10 Pro if it had this iPhone camera feature

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-20 18:00:07

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority The Pixel 10 Pro sits in quite an awkward spot this year. The main differentiator between the standard Pixel and the Pro model has long been the third camera, but that gap closed with the Pixel 10 also rocking a three-cam setup this time. Getting a solid telephoto camera on a $200 cheaper phone already sabotages the 10 Pro’s position as the real ‘Pro’ for most people. Since Google’s phones are known for cameras — they are called Pixels after all — the Pixel 10

VibeVoice: A Frontier Open-Source Text-to-Speech Model VibeVoice is a novel framework designed for generating expressive, long-form, multi-speaker conversational audio, such as podcasts, from text. It addresses significant challenges in traditional Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems, particularly in scalability, speaker consistency, and natural turn-taking. A core innovation of VibeVoice is its use of continuous speech tokenizers (Acoustic and Semantic) operating at an ultra-low frame rate of 7.5 Hz.

JBL’s Boombox 4 Speaker Can Pump Out Less Distorted Sound Thanks to AI

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-10-20 16:00:25

Sometimes you need a Bluetooth speaker that’s going to knock people’s socks off, not necessarily in terms of audio quality (though that’s nice too), but in pure, unadulterated volume. For JBL fans, there’s one wireless speaker that delivers on that promise in a package that’s not a total pain in the ass to cart around, and that’s the Boombox, which just got its fourth version and some significant upgrades to boot at IFA 2025.

Sabrina Ortiz/ZDNET Isaac Reynolds has been working on the Pixel Camera team at Google for almost a decade -- since the first Google Pixel phone launched in 2016.

Google is changing how Extra Dim works on the Pixel 10, and it’s so much better

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR The new Pixel 10 series integrates the “Extra Dim” feature directly into the main brightness slider, making it easier to access. This removes the need for a separate toggle, as Extra Dim now automatically activates when the brightness slider is at its minimum. While the feature was tested on older Pixels, it is currently exclusive to the Pixel 10, though it may come to other devices later. Google’s new Pixel 10 series introduces some surprise display upgr

How to unlock the Pixel 10 Pro’s hidden 12-bit video capabilities
