Google’s official Pixel 10 cases just leaked, confirming a big upgrade

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-07 10:50:09

TL;DR Newly leaked images have given us a good look at Google’s first-party Pixel 10 cases. The cases resemble last year’s Pixel 9 versions, with the primary difference being the inclusion of built-in magnets. The case colors mimic those we expect for the Pixel 10 itself, including Indigo and Limoncello. The Google Pixel 10 series has already been leaked to death at this point, whether we’re talking design renders or detailed specs. With the phones fully leaked, the rumor mill has now turned

9to5mac.com Benjamin Mayo 2026-02-07 10:32:45

The iTunes Movies and TV Shows app predate the unified Apple TV app, and go all the way back to the first version of tvOS in 2015. Fast forward to today, and these apps are almost entirely redundant and serve as mere placeholders. As system apps on Apple TV are not deletable, these husks of times past have somewhat comically stuck around on the Apple TV home screen. With the latest beta of tvOS 26, users will finally have a way to bury these apps for good. Up to now, the only workaround to kee

How Stock Options Work

How Stock Options Work Employee stock-option programs are typically authorized by a company's board of directors (and have historically been approved by the shareholders) and give the company discretion to award options to employees equal to a certain percentage of the company's shares outstanding. Options give employees the right to buy a certain number of their company's shares at a fixed price for a certain period of time, usually 10 years. That price, usually the market price of the

New Details Emerge About Ancient Inca Counting Technology

The Inca were a pre-Columbian civilization whose empire sprawled along South America’s Pacific Coast from the 15th to the 16th century CE. Like other Andean peoples, they used khipus (also known as quipus), an intricate cord and knot system used to record information. According to Spanish colonial-era sources, only male Inca elites could make khipus. A new study, however, challenges this widespread notion.

Monarch Butterflies Are Losing Their Navigational Abilities. You Can Guess Why

Each fall, millions of eastern North American monarch butterflies migrate up to 3,000 miles south to the mountains of central Mexico, then return to their northern range in the spring. These winged insects rely on a complex navigation system to go to and from their overwintering sites, and new research suggests climate change may be messing with it.

There is a lot to like about the big Polestar, particularly the way it drives: sharp enough to give Porsche cause for concern. Among the handful of things I wasn't so keen on was its reluctance to drive slowly.
