A little less than five years ago, Anker released a Bluetooth speaker called the Soundcore Motion Plus that turned out to be quite popular because it delivered surprisingly good sound for its fairly compact size and $100 price. In some ways, Anker's new Soundcore Boom 3i is the spiritual successor to that speaker. It's similarly shaped but has more of an outdoor adventure slant with Anker calling it "built for the wild" and billing it as the first Bluetooth speaker with playback in water, as it

Google Pixel 10 leak points to some disappointing feature omissions

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR The vanilla Pixel 10 may not have a vapor chamber. Wi-Fi 7 support may not be in the cards either. It could also miss out on the new “Ultra Res Zoom” feature and ultra-stable video recording. The base model Pixel 10 is shaping up to sound like a mixed bag of good news and bad news. While it should get a big upgrade in the form of a triple camera setup, it’s also expected to make a variety of compromises. For example, our report from April suggests Google

I’ll let you in on a secret; I’ve been using the OPPO Find X8 Pro as my daily driver for some time now — largely because of its brilliant quad-camera array.

Whistleblower warning: 2FA codes sent via SMS are trivially easy to intercept
