Nothing Phone 3 Review: A Rule-Breaking Phone for Rebels

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2026-01-11 22:59:10

A month removed from the flustered echo chamber of gearheads, self-proclaimed tastemakers, and apparently everyone-is-a-designer-and-engineer-now people on social platforms like X and Threads, I can say with certainty that almost all of the complaints about Nothing’s controversial Phone 3 are much ado about—excuse the pun—nothing. Taken as a whole, the Phone 3 is exactly what I expect from Nothing, the London-based technology startup led by ex-OnePlus cofounder Carl Pei that’s known for stirrin

The Pixel’s most powerful privacy tool doesn’t come from Google, but I’d install it in a heartbeat

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-12 06:00:24

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority Google’s Pixel phones have long been sold as some of the most secure Android devices you can buy, thanks to the inclusion of the Titan M2 chip and regular security patches over several years. There’s a bit of irony to that statement, of course — Google’s entire business model revolves around selling ads. Indeed, the search giant has quite a bit of insight into the way you use your device along with a host of other analytics and location data. Having said tha

These 7 Rumored iPhone 17 Pro Max Features Just Might Convince Me to Upgrade

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-01-12 08:11:03

Because photography is important to me, I've always picked the iPhone Pro with its telephoto camera over the regular iPhone models. But each year I'm pulled in two directions: Pick the standard-sized iPhone Pro or the larger iPhone Pro Max? Some years the latter includes photo features not found on the regular iPhone Pro, such as the 5x zoom that was exclusive to the iPhone 15 Pro Max. And as we approach the reveal of the next iPhone 17 lineup, I'm once again waffling between sizes. And based on

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Apple has said that Samsung’s US factory will make chips for a number of its products, including iPhones. It’s unclear if Apple is referring to its A series chips that are the heart and soul of iPhones. Samsung has historically produced A series chips for Apple, but it’s been a while since anyone but TSMC manufactured iPhone chips.

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Motorola Razr (2025) I absolutely love flip phones, mainly because I am a fan of smaller devices. There’s also the novelty factor; these are really cool and always spark conversations. My main issue is that they also tend to be very expensive. Things are changing, though, and there are now very accessible devices with a foldable screen. If I had to spend my hard-earned money, I would go for the Motorola Razr 2025, which is now $599.99 thanks to a $100 discount. B
