zdnet.com Jason Howell 2025-12-04 17:33:00

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Pixel phones have an excellent reputation for smart software, but battery life has been a common complaint with Google's smartphones.

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

When GPT-4 launched, I (and many others) believed that GPT-5's launch would be the “AGI moment”. Cherry picking “bs in blueberry” as a fail
