I’d rather get the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold at this record-low price than the new version!

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! Honestly, it’s looking much more enticing. Buy the Google Pixel 9

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 first Pixel 10 Pro Res Zoom samples show up online, and they’re pretty bad

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR The first pictures taken with the Pixel 10 Pro’s Pro Res Zoom feature have surfaced online. Pro Res Zoom uses generative AI to capture better long-range zoom shots, at up to 100x. These early samples show some glaring limitations with the technology. The newly launched Google Pixel 10 Pro phones offer a 100x Pro Res Zoom feature. This uses generative AI to improve image quality, but is this just heavy-handed AI or something genuinely useful? Well, the

Sony raises PlayStation 5 prices in US as tariff fears persist

Sony raises PlayStation 5 prices in US as tariff fears persist The price hikes come after US President Donald Trump imposed tariffs on most of America's trading partners, including Japan, which has led to fears of rising costs. All three PlayStation 5 consoles will see a similar price increase. The most expensive Pro version now has a recommended retail price of $749.99. Like many global businesses, the firm faces a "challenging economic environment", Isabelle Tomatis, Sony Interactive Entert

OpenAI says GPT-6 is coming and it'll be better than GPT-5 (obviously)

OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman told reporters that GPT-6 is already in the works, and it’ll not take as long as GPT-5. The GPT-6 announcement doesn't surprise me because OpenAI is slowly becoming a product-first company rather than research-focused. There's no denying that OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman overhyped GPT-5 and underdelivered. While GPT-5 isn't exactly bad and actually offers significant improvements over GPT-4 or o3 for coding, the rollout wasn't smooth and some people were expecting more than

Advice for Tech Non-Profits

August 20, 2025 My family and I regularly contribute to various philanthropic causes. In the range of contributions we make, I've noticed that technical non-profits are far and away the worst at attracting eager donors like myself when compared to other causes. In this blog post, I'll share what I've learned from my own activity with other causes as well as what I've learned from spending more time with donors in general. This blog post will be biased towards larger donations, but I think many

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

I went hands-on with every Google Pixel 10 phone, and this model stole my heart

Sabrina Ortiz/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways Pixel 10 lineup brings welcome changes across all models. Base Pixel 10 suits most, but power users will prefer Pro XL.

Introduction to AT Protocol

Some time ago I wrote a long blog post I called “Complete guide to Bluesky”, which explains how all the user-facing features of Bluesky work and various tips and tricks. This one is meant to be a bit like a developer version of that – I want to explain in hopefully understandable language what all the pieces of the network architecture are and how they all fit together. I hope this will let you understand better how Bluesky and the underlying protocol works, and how it differs from e.g. the Fedi

The 3 Best Espresso Machines You Can Buy in 2025

My evaluation process for a home espresso machine is similar to how I test standard drip coffee makers. First, I hand-wash and dry all removable parts and accessories. For most espresso machines, that includes the filter basket, metal portafilter inserts, water tank and so on. Next, I run one brewing cycle with just hot water to flush away any residual material from manufacturing. Most automatic espresso machines, save for fancy super-automatic models, lack an integrated coffee grinder, and I p

Android will finally fix your messy home screen by forcing apps to use themed icons

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 QPR2 Beta 1 offers improved support for themed app icons. For apps that don’t natively offer a monochrome icon, QPR2 lets the system automatically generate one for theming purposes. A new “Create” option also appears for icon theming, which may be related to in-development AI-powered tools. You may have thought today was going to be all about the Pixel 10 and Google’s latest hardware, but that has only been the start of things. No sooner di

Amazon could shake up the tablet market with a higher-end model running real Android

Amazon TL;DR Amazon is reportedly working on a higher-end Android tablet codenamed Kittyhawk. Sources claim that the company is tossing around the idea of a $400 price tag. It’s said there are still plans to launch some lower-priced tablets that run on Vega OS, but its full slate will eventually be powered by a version of Android. Many of Amazon’s products use a forked version of Android called Fire OS. However, the company has long been trying to separate its products from Google’s operatin

Pixel 10 Pro vs Galaxy S25 Ultra: I know which one I’d get

The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra is the smartphone equivalent of an all-inclusive holiday and costs about as much. Packing a massive screen, an impressive camera array, and plenty of push for even the pickiest power user, it’s not a smartphone you simply settle on. But, flagship devices only have a brief time in the sun before something new and potentially better comes along. The latest pretender is from Google and is in the form of the Pixel 10 Pro.

The Pixel 10 series is here, and this is the one I’d get

Google’s Pixel 10 series has inspired various views from me and my colleagues, even weeks before its official launch. There’s little doubt that the company smashed the copy-paste shortcut when designing the Pixel 9 line successor, and for some, this similar aesthetic just isn’t good enough. However, you’ll notice a few standout additions and improvements if you peer deeper into the Pixel 10 trio’s specs sheets and feature files.

This is part of Google’s new accelerated release schedule to get new Android and AI features to developers faster than the traditional yearly cycle.

I'm Stoked That Google Made the Pixel 10 a $799 Value-Packed Feature Monster

The Pixel 10 has arrived. It has a bigger battery, support for faster charging, new AI-powered tools and new cameras including one with a 5x telephoto lens (the first on a non-Pro Pixel phone). After years of Google raising the price on its standard Pixel phone, it's nice to see the company pack the Pixel 10 with features while keeping the starting price at $799, the same as last year's Pixel 9. The Pixel 10, announced at the Made by Google event, builds on last year's excellent Pixel 9 design

All of the phones are powered by the company’s new Tensor G5 processor. The most noticeable change in hardware with this iteration is that Google has opted for a triple-camera setup for the first time for the base Pixel 10 model. On the other hand, the Pro models mostly got iterative updates in terms of processor and camera sensors. The Pixel
