Use Xfinity Mobile on a Pixel phone? You may be getting a Wi-Fi Speed Boost

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-28 03:29:48

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Xfinity Mobile’s WiFi PowerBoost lets your phone access Wi-Fi speeds in excess of the internet plan you’re paying for. So far it’s supported iPhones and Samsung Galaxy flagships and mid-rangers, but not Android phones at large. New settings for “Xfinity Speed Boost” in Google’s Adaptive Connectivity Service app suggest availability could be improving. Going online with your smartphone over a Wi-Fi connection can offer a lot of advantages compared to

Researchers from the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab), UC Irvine, and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC), have used biology to convert human urine into a valuable product. The team genetically modified yeast to take the elements present in urine and create hydroxyapatite – a calcium and phosphorus-based mineral naturally produced by humans and other animals to build bones and teeth.

Android phones could soon warn you of “Stingrays” snooping on your communications

arstechnica.com Unknown 2026-02-28 03:00:50

Smartphones contain a treasure trove of personal data, which makes them a worthwhile target for hackers. However, law enforcement is not above snooping on cell phones, and their tactics are usually much harder to detect. Cell site simulators, often called Stingrays, can trick your phone into revealing private communications, but a change in Android 16 could allow phones to detect this spying. Law enforcement organizations have massively expanded the use of Stingray devices because almost every

The Trump Phone Is Already a Lot Different From Last Week

Apparently, things change quickly in the world of the Trump phone. It’s been 10 days since the Trump Organization announced it would be launching the $499 T1 smartphone, and in that time there have already been a confusing series of changes to a product that was initially supposed to be arriving as soon as August. Now, you can only expect it “later this year,” according to the most recent update of the Trump Mobile website, with all mention of it “coming soon” gone. That is not the only change.

The Nothing Phone 3 might have the weirdest camera design out there

theverge.com Jay Peters 2026-02-28 03:33:15

Earlier this month, I wrote about a leaked image of what was rumored to be the Nothing Phone 3. That image showed a design with a translucent back and three center-aligned cameras. But a new set of supposed Nothing Phone 3 images reveal a different design — with one of the wildest camera layouts I’ve ever seen.

Chase Sapphire Reserve Launches New $250 Apple Perk. I’m Not Falling for It

Chase/CNET The Chase Sapphire Reserve®* was updated earlier this week and now includes a number of new annual credits and other features, including an Apple Plus and Apple Music membership, valued at $250 annually (ends June 22, 2027). Chase also upped the card's annual fee. It now costs $795 annually, so you'll have to do more legwork to get enough value from the card to cover the cost.

Google’s carbon emissions just went up again

theverge.com Emma Roth 2026-02-28 08:08:04

Google’s carbon emissions jumped yet again as the company continues to push ahead in AI. The company’s 2025 sustainability report emphasizes that its “ambition-based emissions” grew 11 percent last year to reach 11.5 million metric tons of carbon dioxide pollution, marking a 51 percent increase compared to 2019. That puts Google farther away from its goal of slashing planet-heating pollution in half by 2030 compared to a 2019 baseline. But what it calls “ambition-based” emissions excludes certa
