Google Thinks AI Can Make You a Better Photographer: I Dive Into the Pixel 10 Cameras

If a company releases new phone models but doesn't change the cameras, would anyone pay attention? Fortunately that's not the case with Google's new Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro and Pixel 10 Pro Fold phones, which make a few advancements in the hardware -- hello, telephoto camera on the base-level Pixel for the first time -- and also in the software that runs it all, with generative AI playing an even bigger role than it has before. "This is the first year where not only are we able to achieve some i

Pixel’s new Welcome screen looks awfully familiar if you’ve used an iPhone

Damien Wilde / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 QPR2 Beta 1 introduces a new Welcome screen on Pixel devices. The refreshed design mimics Apple’s iconic ‘Hello’ setup experience, with the text cycling through multiple languages. The new UI also moves around elements like Emergency Calls and Accessibility buttons, and pushes language selection to the next screen. Google had a big day yesterday. In addition to launching the Pixel 10 series, the company released Android 16 QPR2 Beta 1 and a n

The Pixel 10 series brings even more panorama mode upgrades

Adamya Sharma / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel 10 phones bring several more upgrades to the panorama mode. You can now take panoramas with the 5x camera, although ultrawide panoramas are still out of the question. Google has also brought manual controls to the panorama mode so you can fine-tune your snap. Google neglected panorama mode on its Pixel phones for a long time. However, the Pixel 9 series delivered a variety of welcome upgrades last year. Now, Google has brought even more addit

Pre-ordering the Pixel 10 or Pixel Watch 4? Read this before checking out

However, while pre-orders for everything went live simultaneously on August 20, not everything is shipping and hitting store shelves at the same time. Depending on which new Pixel you pre-order, you may receive it as early as next week … or you could be waiting until October. If you’re planning on pre-ordering any of the new Pixels, or if you already did, here’s what you need to know about when you’ll actually get your hands on your new Google hardware.

Pixel 10 vs Pixel 8: Here’s why I’m not upgrading

The Pixel 10 series, save for the base model, is largely an incremental upgrade, with Google draping the familiar design in new colors. If you are coming from a Pixel 9 series, there’s little conviction to upgrade to the newer models, unless you absolutely cannot live without the new Pixelsnap accessories or the slightly improved Tensor G5. But what if you have an older Pixel 8 series phone? Then, the Pixel 10’s newer design can be alluring, while the new telephoto on the vanilla Pixel 10 could

Google’s silence on the Pixel 10 GPU is concerning for gamers

Google has just launched the Pixel 10 phones, and there’s plenty to know about them. There are some great new AI features, a groundbreaking IP68 rating for the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, and a telephoto camera for the base model. All four phones are also powered by the Tensor G5 processor. Unfortunately, Google remains deeply silent on a major Tensor G5 feature. This makes me worried about the Pixel 10 phones, especially if you’re a gamer.

Don’t panic: Losing SIM cards on the Pixel 10 is actually a good thing

Google’s Pixel 10 series is finally here, and for the most part, all the upgrades we were expecting have come to fruition. The Tensor G5 chip promises big performance gains over the G4, the Pixel 10 now has a telephoto camera, and all Pixel 10 models have magnetic charging built in. While it’s mostly good news, there is one change that’s likely to make a lot of people upset: the removal of physical SIM cards. If you buy a Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, or Pixel 10 Pro XL in the United States, you’ll o

Dev Reveals Secrets Behind New "3D" Platformer for the ZX Spectrum

As you may or may not already know, last week saw the start of YRGB 2025, a retro game development competition for the ZX Spectrum computer scheduled to last between August 7th to August 20th. As a result, we've recently seen a large increase in the number of homebrew releases for the classic machine, with exciting titles like Manu & Kit's Asymmetry and Miguelito's Escape from the Twilight Castle, becoming available to play and download for free.

D4d4

A co-worker of mine was looking at some disassembled ARM code the other day, and discovered something weird. Lots of d4d4 instructions, scattered about. LLVM’s objdump says this is a relative branch to -0x58 . The weird part is that they were always unreachable. Experiments¶ Here’s an example in a minimal reproducer I wrote: 00020100 < one >: 20100: 4770 bx lr 20102: d4d4 bmi 0x200ae <__dso_handle+0x100ae> @ imm = #-0x58 That bx lr right before the d4d4 branches to the link register.

Apple released iOS 18.6.1 on Aug. 14 after the tech giant mentioned the mobile software update in a blog post earlier that day.

Everything at Made by Google 2025: Pixel 10, Pixel Watch 4, Pixel 10 Pro Fold and More

At yesterday's Made by Google 2025 showcase in New York, Google unveiled something unexpected: playfulness. Hosted by The Tonight Show's Jimmy Fallon in a format more like the talk show he's famous for, the tech event included presenters and celebrity guests who didn't look like they were delivering a script they'd been rehearsing for weeks. Everyone seemed to actually enjoy themselves as they revealed Google's latest products. And there were plenty of new products and other announcements to sh

SpaceX has built the machine to build the machine. But what about the machine?

STARBASE, Texas—I first visited SpaceX's launch site in South Texas a decade ago. Driving down the pocked and barren two-lane road to its sandy terminus, I found only rolling dunes, a large mound of dirt, and a few satellite dishes that talked to Dragon spacecraft as they flew overhead. A few years later, in mid-2019, the company had moved some of that dirt and built a small launch pad. A handful of SpaceX engineers working there at the time shared some office space nearby in a tech hub buildin

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The new Google smartphones, including the Pixel 10 Pro Fold, are all the rage right now. It’s an exciting product for foldable phone enthusiasts, but I like to stretch the value of my dollar as much as possible. After checking out the new foldable, I was left scratching my head, wondering if it was worth my hard-earned $1,799. Then I came upon this Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold record-low price deal!

Google answers our prayers, adds 10x zoom button to Pixel 10 Pro camera app

TL;DR The Google Pixel 10 Pro phones now have a 10x zoom button in the camera app. This is a long-overdue addition as Pixel Pro phones are all capable of good-quality 10x shots. This also means you no longer have to rely on the Pixel Camera app’s finicky zoom slider to get to 10x. Google’s Pixel Pro phones all have high-resolution 5x periscope cameras, enabling 10x shots at a lossless resolution. This capability makes these devices stand out among the best camera phones on the market. Unfortu

The iconic T. rex escape scene is seared into the collective core memory of Jurassic Park fans.

But if you, like me, had the film as one of your earliest and most life-changing cinema-going experiences, there’s not a detail forgotten—especially not the goggles. You know the ones that Tim grabs and the lawyer tells him to put back, because if they’re heavy, “they’r

The Pixel 10 Pro has the display upgrade your poor eyes have been begging for

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR The Pixel 10 Pro series introduces a new “sensitive eyes” setting that doubles its display PWM rate to 480Hz. The option is limited to the Pro models, with partial support on the Pro Fold, and none on the base Pixel 10. This is Google’s first significant step toward helping flicker-sensitive users, but it could go further. OLED screens are great for deep blacks and rich colors, but they also have a hidden flicker problem. It’s caused by PWM dimming, w
