Samsung scores a win in Galaxy S22 throttling saga, but it still deceived customers

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-17 15:56:50

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A Korean court has ruled that Samsung wasn’t liable for damages after it throttled Galaxy S22 phones. However, the court acknowledged that Samsung engaged in “deceptive labeling and advertising that was likely to mislead consumers.” Samsung throttled S22 phones out of the box back in 2022 and didn’t let users disable this functionality at first. Samsung made headlines for all the wrong reasons in early 2022 when it turned out that the company was throttl

It’s been 84 years, but my dream of ‘MagSafe’ on a Pixel is almost here

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-17 18:00:32

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority I am an Android and a Pixel fan who has been heralding MagSafe as the coolest and most useful smartphone accessory improvement since sliced bread — or USB-C to stay within the metaphor. So when Qi2 was announced with a hint of MagSafe backwards compatibility, I was in nerd heaven. Finally — finally! — I’d be able to dip into a large ecosystem of accessories and use them on my Pixel phones. But Qi2’s announcement came and went, and the weeks, months, and years

Why I still recommend these Sonos headphones over competing models - including AirPods

zdnet.com Jada Jones 2025-09-17 16:00:23

Jada Jones/ZDNET Editor's note: This article was first published on June 6, 2025, and updated on June 10, 2025, when Sonos announced the Ace's latest software updates. It's been one year since Sonos released its first pair of consumer headphones, and although they made waves when they first dropped, how have they fared after the hype has died down? You can often find the Ace discounted for up to $120 off their original price, and if you're interested in them, that's the best time to buy them.

First Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 3 leak has bad news for 2027’s flagship phones

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-09-17 18:26:07

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority TL;DR The first major Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 3 leak suggests Qualcomm could offer two versions of the chip, akin to Apple. The leaker also asserts that 2027’s flagship phones could be more expensive due to the cost of the chipset. It also sounds like standard flagship phones could use a less capable flagship Snapdragon processor. The Snapdragon 8 Elite powers plenty of great Android phones today, but we’ve already seen some Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 2 leaks. N

The Sony WH-1000XM6 headphones were just launched last month, so it makes sense we haven’t seen any discounts yet.

Sonos Ace headphones get long-awaited TrueCinema sound and more in big update

engadget.com Unknown 2025-09-16 14:30:12

Sonos has announced a major software update for its flagship Sonos Ace headphones that brings some new features to the premium wireless cans. Chief among them is the long-awaited TrueCinema feature, which was first promised as upcoming when the headphones launched in 2024. TrueCinema uses a compatible Sonos soundbar to measure the acoustic dynamics of the room you’re sitting in. It then uses that data to increase the accuracy of the spatial sound in your headphones, in the same fashion as Truepl

Did you know that there are just an unfathomable number of headphone and earbud options out there? Seriously, we’d defy anyone who wanted to actually count them all; it’d take way too long. This wealth of options is good for all of us, but can make it really hard to find the right pair for what you need. We recommend figuring out what you actually want them for, and then going from there. So, if you’re someone who loves going for a run, then something like the Shokz OpenRun Pro headphones are a

Sony WH-1000XM6 vs. Bose QuietComfort Ultra: Which Is Best?

wired.com Ryan Waniata 2025-09-16 10:03:00

Every couple of years, Bose and Sony trade blows in an effort to claim the title of the best noise-canceling headphones you can buy. Until recently, Bose's QuietComfort Ultra (9/10, WIRED Recommends) had the edge, offering world-crushing cancellation that bested Sony's still-great WH-1000XM5 (9/10, WIRED Recommends) and other top models from the likes of JBL, Sonos, and Apple. Now, Sony's back with its latest WH-1000 model, the predictably titled WH-1000XM6 (9/10, WIRED Recommends). The new pai

Best Over-Ear Headphones for 2025

cnet.com David Carnoy 2025-06-02 09:15:00

Shure Aonic 50 Gen 2: A lot of us liked Shure's original Aonic 50 headphones, but they had pretty middling noise cancellation. Well, the 2nd-gen version addresses that issue -- the noise canceling is much improved -- and Shure has more than doubled the the battery life to around 45 hours (they now have a quick-charge feature) and also shrunk the headphone's carry case a bit, although it's still not that compact. Those upgrades make the Aonic 50 Gen 2 a top noise-canceling headphone. The Aonic 50

Oppo’s new foldable can remote control a Mac

theverge.com Dominic Preston 2025-06-02 16:37:05

Today Oppo launched the Find N5, the thinnest book-style foldable phone yet, but there’s more to the phone than a slim design: it’s capable of connecting to a Mac for file transfers and even remote control. It’s not quite the first Android phone to do so, but it is the only one you can buy outside of China. To link the Find N5 with a Mac you first have to install Oppo’s O Plus Connect app on the Mac, which will be available from Oppo’s website — I’ve been testing out a beta version. Linking the
