The Pixel 10 is proof that the iPhone camera strategy isn’t working for Google

Google will launch the Pixel 10 series phones on August 20, and we’re excited about the standard Pixel 10. Leaked renders show that the base phone could offer a triple rear camera system for the first time, as a telephoto camera joins the main and ultrawide shooters. This is a major strategic shift for the standard Pixel flagship phone. However, this also signals Google’s acceptance that it’s no longer copying Apple’s strategy for base flagship phones. An overdue move for standard Pixel phones

Checking Out CPython 3.14's remote debugging protocol

From Python 3.14, python -m pdb -p pid lets you connect a pdb session to a running Python process. This post goes into a part of what makes this possible.

Leak strongly hints that a cheaper Nothing phone is on the way

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR Nothing may be planning a new “Lite” or “T” branded phone. The move could extend Nothing’s reach into the budget segment below the Phone 3a series.

The company has so far focused on flagship and mid-range devices, but that strategy could be evolving. According to rel

Google gets ahead of the leaks and reveals the Pixel 10 early

Google has an event next month to officially launch the Pixel 10 series, but the leaks have been coming fast and furious beforehand. There won't be much left to learn on August 20, particularly now that Google has revealed the phone.

Apple Only Has One Hope for a Foldable iPhone that Beats Samsung

Next year, Apple will enter the foldable phone market, and after more than seven years of mainstream folding devices, its debut won’t be light on competition. As noted by Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman, Apple is no stranger to tough competitors, but its folding phone launch is shaping up to be a little different. “When the company introduces its first foldable iPhone at the end of next year, it will be entering a product category that’s already seven years old—pioneered and dominated by its biggest ha

I Tried the Nothing Phone 3 and It Definitely Didn't Live Up to the Hype

Nothing made things difficult for itself by calling its latest phone its first "true flagship." It suggests that it is a contender to premium phones such as the iPhone 16 Pro or the Galaxy S25 Ultra, but it simply isn't. Instead it's a solid midranger, offering decent performance and a host of quirky features for a relatively affordable price. At $799 (£799), the Nothing Phone 3 is the most expensive phone the company has made, and it backs this up with a more potent processor, better cameras a

5 Android phones you should buy instead of the Galaxy Z Fold 7

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 doesn’t officially hit store shelves until later this month, but it’s already established itself as one of the most exciting foldable releases of the year. With its impressively thin and light design, larger screens, and better cameras, the Z Fold 7 makes a strong argument for being the folding phone to buy in 2025. Although the US isn’t teeming with foldable handsets the way other markets are, there are still options to choose fro

iPhone 17 Air’s rumored accessory could be exactly what new model needs

iPhone 17 Air is a brand new model expected to debut this fall, with Apple prioritizing form over function.
