Galaxy S25 vs Galaxy S25 FE: 4 reasons why the cheaper one isn’t worth it

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-09 22:30:10

With every passing year, the Galaxy S25 FE has been inching closer to the main high-end lineup, both in features and price. They share the same software with One UI 8, boast top-notch build quality, have great displays, top-tier IP ratings, and whatnot. But what started as a solid mid-tier phone that felt like a flagship without the flagship money is now becoming a less enticing deal. With the gap bridging, there are more reasons to spend that extra cash on the standard Galaxy S25 to get a bett

Nick Fernandez / Android Authority TL;DR The official stable release 0.0.3 of the Switch emulator Eden is now available. It adds performance updates, driver downloads, UI improvements, and bug fixes. The update also adds support for Hollow Knight: Silksong, which released just yesterday. It’s been just over a month since the Nintendo Switch emulator Eden dropped the release candidate for version 0.0.3, but after a few rounds of revisions, it’s finally ready for a stable release.

7 features I’m excited to try when Gemini lands on my Google Home speakers

Adam Molina / Android Authority Gemini support on Google Home and Nest speakers has been a long time coming. The feature has been in preview testing for some lucky US users with specific voices for months now, but Google just announced the exact date when it’ll start showing up for real: October 1. Although this will still be an early access, I can’t wait to get my proverbial hands on it because I’m sick of Google Assistant’s glitches. The inconsistency, frequent bugs, and silly downgrades hav

Everyone’s in awe of ‘tri-fold’ phones, and now projectors are all ‘yeah, us, too’

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-12 07:41:57

Stephen Schenck / Android Authority TL;DR The Aurzen ZIP projector has a Z-shaped folding design that collapses to just one inch thick. A 5,000 mAh battery delivers 90 minutes of operation on a charge. In addition to the folding design letting you easily direct the ZIP’s output, you can turn it on its side for screen-mirroring portrait mode. Listen, foldables are cool — who doesn’t love big things that transform into smaller things — but they’re also becoming a little been-there-done-that as

This Pixel 9 Pro Is So Clean, It Feels Like the iPhone of Androids

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-10-12 18:39:00

CNET's key takeaways After months of using Google's Pixel 9 Pro, I like its solid overall performance and quirky new AI skills. The element that stands out most is how easy it is to use. While Android users swear by them, a lot of other people consider Android phones to feel overly complex. The user interface isn't quite as easy to adjust as Apple's offering. And while it may sound unreasonable, Samsung's Galaxy S25 range, for example, has deep menu settings that let you tweak nearly every as

Pour one out for the Galaxy Note line as updates come to an end

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has finally ended software support for the Galaxy Note 20 and Note 20 Ultra. The August 2025 patch was their final update, leaving them on One UI 5.1. Fans say they’ll keep using the phones, but the Note line is now officially over. The Galaxy Note series was iconic in its day, but time waits for no device, and now the last models have finally been cut off.

Samsung’s new DeX drops desktop UI on tablets, and not everyone will be happy

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR In One UI 8, Samsung DeX no longer offers the full desktop interface on tablets unless connected to an external display. The updated version improves ease of switching between regular Android and DeX mode without closing apps. When using the standalone tablet view, traditional navigation buttons and quick settings are absent, resulting in a less mouse-friendly experience.
