Survey shows one Pixel 10 color is a clear fan favorite

Google’s upcoming Pixel 10 colors haven’t been officially announced yet, but we got a good look at the leaked renders above at the start of the week. Naturally, we wanted to know which one you’re most excited about, so we ran polls across our site and YouTube to find out. Now, the results are in. If you missed the leak that kicked things off, the Pixel 10 is expected to launch in four colors: Obsidian, Indigo, Frost, and Limoncello. Obsidian is Google’s classic black, while Indigo is deepish bl

Fresh Pixel 10 leak shows off the series in more than just Moonstone

Google TL;DR More renders of the Pixel 10 series have emerged online. This leak also includes images of the Pixel Watch 4 and Pixel Buds Pro 2. It has been a busy week for Pixel 10 series leaks. Google even joined in on the fun by releasing a teaser, which was followed up by an accidental leak of official imagery. If that wasn’t enough to satiate you until next month’s Made by Google event, even more renders have now emerged. Earlier today, tipster Evan Blass took to X (formerly Twitter) to

Animated Cursors

Tattoy now supports animated cursors. It uses the same format as Ghostty, therefore rendering the cursor using custom shaders. Here are some popular Ghostty cursors, that you can use out-of-the-box with Tattoy. Even though Tattoy supports Ghostty cursors its rendering is quite different. Ghostty renders the cursor using actual pixels whereas Tattoy renders using UTF8 text-based "pixels", namely "▀" and "▄". This means that Tattoy cursors sometimes miss out on the subtleties of Ghostty cursors,

Pixel Buds Pro 2 and Pixel Watch 4 Leaks Just Spoiled Google’s Whole Party

The faucet for Google leaks is on, and no one is home. After Google’s Pixel 10 was leaked by Google itself, and then the whole Pixel 10 family on top of that, we’re now getting an alleged look at the rest of the previously unconfirmed products from reputable gadget leaker Evan Blass. These particular leaks include images of not only Google’s Pixel Buds Pro 2 but also its next smartwatch, the Pixel Watch 4. Sorry, Google, looks like the whole cat is now out of the bag. While there’s nothing part

Can Vibration Plates Help You Lose Weight? We Asked Experts to Find Out

If you have any type of social media, you've likely seen someone trying to sell you a vibration plate claiming that they've lost weight by just standing on a small platform that vibrates. Similar to the mid-20th-century vibrating belt machines, vibration plates have been said to provide the body with various benefits and can even be a tool for weight loss. But is the hype backed by science and expert opinions, or is it all social media hearsay? To find out if you should add a vibration plate to

This Pixel 10 series leak is one giant leap for Moonstone color coordination

Google TL;DR Good-quality unwatermarked renders show off Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, Pixel Buds 2a, and Pixel Watch 4 before their official unveiling.

In the run-up to the launch, we’ve been treated to a ton of leaks, some even coming directly from Google. If you’re yearning for a clean look at the upcoming phones, a ne

Why I love (and hate) the Pixel Watch 4’s utterly bizarre new charger

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority A leaked render surfaced yesterday showing the upcoming Google Pixel Watch 4’s new charging mechanism, and it’s safe to say that it received a lot of gut reactions from us here at Android Authority. From “… interesting,” to “I strongly dislike that,” to a clear “I hate this,” my colleagues’ thoughts weren’t all that positive, but I took one look at it and… liked it?! I guess. There’s no denying that the contraption looks bizarre and unlike most smartwatch cha

Why I am a Pixel guy

I’ve been an Android guy for 15 years. Fun fact: I have never owned an iPhone. I’ve been on Team Android since day one, and over that decade and a half, I’ve used phones from nearly every major brand you can think of — Samsung, LG, OnePlus, and more. But for the past few years, I’ve been all-in on one brand: Google Pixel. My current daily driver is the Google Pixel 9 Pro, and whenever I need to use another phone for work, I immediately find myself missing it. But what is it about this phone, an

Google’s second Android Canary release is already out for Pixel devices

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Google announced its Android Canary testing program earlier this month. Testers get access to cutting-edge features that still may not be stable enough for regular use. Today Google shares that its second Android Canary release is now available. Two weeks ago, Google introduced a new track for Android testing, as it expanded its existing Android Beta program to also begin offering Android Canary builds. Representing Google’s very latest, still very muc

The Pixel Watch 4 might charge via a wireless charging stand

The Pixel Watch 4 could use an entirely different charging system when its officially announced in a few weeks, according to leaked renders from Android Headlines. Rather than charging through fiddly pogo pins like past Pixel Watches, the renders suggest Google might finally adopt a simpler form of wireless charging. The renders show the new Pixel Watch charging in a stand on its side, while displaying the current charge, the time and an upcoming alarm, not unlike an Apple Watch. The stand repo

Please, Google, give me Pixel 10 colors for the Pixel 10 Pro

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No, not Christmas — that’s still (thankfully) months away — but Pixel leaks season. Yes, it’s that special time of summer when we find out almost everything there is to know about Google’s upcoming crop of flagships, from camera sensors to chipsets to, most importantly, colors. This year, though, I have a particular bone to pick with the maker of Android. I think Google nailed the colors of the upcoming Pixel 10, embr

The watch may also get a roughly 25 percent improvement in charging speed over the Pixel Watch 3. Without charging contacts on the back, the Pixel Watch 4 will now have a “new array of sensors,” Android Headlines says. Th

Pixel Watch 4 leak shows off a new way to charge

TL;DR A leak has provided new renders of the Pixel Watch 4 and its charging dock. The smartwatch is reported to have a new charger that allows the device to rest on its side. The charging contacts will be located on the left side of the device instead of the back. The Pixel 10 series has been getting plenty of attention lately, with leaks about the colorways, official teases, and more. But it looks like the phones won’t be the only Google hardware we get early information on this week. Now th

Google Skips Right to Leaking the Whole Pixel 10 Lineup

If you were looking forward to Google’s upcoming summer event and all of the surprises about Pixel hardware it may reveal, you may want to stop reading.

iOS 18.6 release notes: Here’s what’s coming in next iPhone update

iPhone users will get a major new software update this fall with iOS 26 and its Liquid Glass design. But the next iPhone update, iOS 18.6, will release much sooner. Here’s what Apple’s official release notes say is coming. Apple’s software development follows a fairly predictable schedule. Every year, Apple introduces big new OS versions at WWDC in June, then ships those updates in the fall—usually September. However, between June and September, there’s typically one more noteworthy update to

We found Google’s next Pixel-only calling feature and it’s borrowed from Apple (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google may be launching a new AI-powered “Call Message” feature that acts like an on-device voicemail with live transcriptions and summaries. The feature works offline without using data or Wi-Fi and is likely powered by Gemini Nano. Like many AI features Google debuts with new Pixel phones, Call Message could be a Pixel 10 exclusive launching next month. Google already packs its Pixel phones with a bunch of smart calling features like Call Screening

Google leaks its full Pixel 10 lineup

This powerful Google Photos tool is finally arriving for older Pixels

Ryan Haines / Android Authority Reimagine in Magic Editor TL;DR The Google Photos Reimagine feature is starting to roll out to older Pixels. Reports from Reddit and Telegram show it working on Pixel 6 and Pixel 8 devices. Access appears limited for now, so not everyone on the same version will see it.

The Pixel 10 Pro is copying one of the worst things about the Galaxy S25 Ultra

Joe Maring / Android Authority Just a day after official Google Pixel 10 renders leaked (showing the phone in some really striking new colors), we now have the same treatment for the higher-end Pixel 10 Pro. While the Pixel 10 Pro’s design hasn’t been a secret up until now, these latest renders do provide us with the best look yet at Google’s upcoming flagship. And, perhaps most importantly, we now know what colors the Pixel 10 Pro will be available in. So, what are we getting? Unfortunately,

Cops say criminals use a Google Pixel with GrapheneOS – I say that's freedom

Calvin Wankhede / Android Authority Police in Spain have reportedly started profiling people based on their phones; specifically, and surprisingly, those carrying Google Pixel devices. Law enforcement officials in Catalonia say they associate Pixels with crime because drug traffickers are increasingly turning to these phones. But it’s not Google’s secure Titan M2 chip that has criminals favoring the Pixel — instead, it’s GrapheneOS, a privacy-focused alternative to the default Pixel OS. As som

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
