No, the Pixel 10’s GPU isn’t underclocked. Here’s the proof

Robert Triggs / Android Authority When switching to any new technology, there’s always a subset of techies curious about how things work—myself included. One of the biggest changes in the Pixel 10 series is the Tensor G5 processor’s new PowerVR GPU, built by Imagination Technologies. Browsing through the graphics chip’s specs, a few things stand out. The core can support ray-tracing, but Google seems to have left this unimplemented. The peak GPU clock is reported at 1.1GHz; however, corners of

This slim MagSafe power bank from Anker is down to a record-low price

We can all be honest and say that carrying around a bulky power bank almost makes it seem like your phone dying isn't so bad. Between the heaviness and any necessary cords, they can just be a pain. So, we were intrigued when Anker debuted a new, very thin power bank this summer: the Anker Nano 5K MagGo Slim power bank. Now, both Anker and Amazon are running sales on it, dropping the price from $55 to $46. The 16 percent discount a new low for the power bank and available in the black and white

The Invisible Character That Cost Me Too Much Debugging Time

The Problem Imagine this: someone tells you they can’t log in. At first, it feels like the kind of bug you can squash before finishing your coffee. Maybe they fat-fingered their password. Maybe their browser cache is holding onto stale session cookies. Easy. Except it isn’t. You check the admin panel. The email is there: james.bond​@mi6.com . Looks fine. The password hash matches what the user typed in. Logs show the request hitting the system cleanly. No obvious anomalies. And yet, every att

Don’t Get Too Excited for That Nvidia and Intel Chip Just Yet

What’s the point of competition anymore? Nvidia may still be trying to make its own CPUs. Intel could have beefed up its Arc GPUs around the corner. But now the two U.S.-based chipmakers plan to make SoCs, or system-on-chips, combining each company’s specialty. While we’re all curious about what this means for the future of PCs, you’ll need to wait a good long while to see what form the new chips from the new Wonder Twins will take. Nvidia is effectively netting a $5 billion stake in Intel, a d

Air Traffic Controllers Still Struggling to Communicate With Pilots: Report

Throughout much of this year, a slew of technical problems at Newark International Airport have spurred concerns about flier safety. On a frightening day in April, the airport lost communication with regional planes for about 90 seconds.

Adaptive Power in iOS 26 Could Boost Your iPhone Battery Life, but It's Not on All Models

When Apple announced the iPhone 17, iPhone 17 Pro and iPhone Air earlier this month, it touted improved battery life across the board and "all-day" battery for the iPhone Air, which has a physically smaller battery to fit inside its thin design. Some of that is due to physically larger batteries, but a new feature called Adaptive Power in iOS 26 is also contributing. And it's available on any iPhone capable of running Apple Intelligence. Currently, the iPhone uses as much power as it needs to p

EVs Have Gotten Too Powerful

Mass is still the enemy here, and EVs typically have lots of it. Factor in bigger brakes and wheels, and the result is an increase in unsprung mass. That puts the springs and dampers under more pressure, which results in an increased amount of energy that needs to be managed, and unwanted oscillations when a car hits a pothole, for example. A car also wants to pivot around what’s known as the center of yaw. If you can locate as much mass as possible close to that point, then the car will rotate
