Your Sony TV is finally getting its Android TV 14 upgrade — here’s who qualifies

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-09 14:50:26

Aamir Siddiqui / Android Authority TL;DR Sony has begun updating a wide range of Bravia TV models directly to Android TV 14 with Google TV. The rollout appears to target Sony TVs using Realtek chipsets. Android TV 14 brings new features like new energy modes and performance improvements for low-RAM hardware. Unlike Android on smartphones, the Android TV operating system follows a much longer product development cycle. It’s not uncommon for TV updates to arrive months after a major platform u

I’d given up on Samsung’s foldables, but the Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 give me faith

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-09 15:00:34

Lanh Nguyen / Android Authority I thought Samsung’s foldables were dead in the water. Leading up to Unpacked, I had almost nothing to be excited about with the Galaxy Z Flip 7 or Z Fold 7, because I assumed they’d be more of the same. After all, that’s mostly what Samsung has done in the last few years — make a few minor updates, add new AI features, and trust you to buy them anyway because there’s no other competition. And, if that stayed true, I was all too happy to stick with a Razr Ultra in

Waze is dropping support for older Android versions

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Waze is ending support for some older versions of Android. Google will soon stop updating the Waze app on devices running Android 9 Pie or older versions of Android. The app will continue to function as usual, but your device will no longer receive newer features. Although it isn’t unusual for Google to have multiple apps for the same or similar functionality, it is atypical for it to allow these multiple apps to exist — so much so that we can’t fath

There’s a new Xbox emulator on Android, but here’s why you should run away from it

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-02-09 16:42:45

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR The supposed first Xbox emulator on Android, Xanite, has launched in V0.1. It is not able to emulate Xbox games, and it appears to be nothing more than an empty shell. Updates are promised in the coming weeks, but don’t get your hopes up. Emulation on Android has come a long way in recent years, with systems up to and including the Nintendo Switch and PS3 now playable. However, despite coming out way back in 2001, the original Xbox still doesn’t have a

Higher iPhone 17 prices, but Pro storage will start at 256GB, says leaker

5 bloatware apps you should delete from your Samsung phone ASAP

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Samsung phones are well known for One UI, one of the most functional and intuitive Android interfaces. While it's highly customizable, these phones often come with preinstalled bloatware. Some built-in Samsung apps, such as Wearable and Wallet, are useful within the Samsung ecosystem. However, there are at least five first-party apps that even dedicated Samsung users rarely touch. The preinstalled bloatware apps can vary by device, price, and lineup, but many are common across

Kerry Wan/ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways iOS 26 introduces a new gesture behavior to the iPhone camera switcher. This shift in app navigation has caused frustration among pros and casual users.

Dear String-to-Integer Parsers

news.ycombinator.com Sarah Muller 2026-02-05 02:44:32

These are very useful functions that any language with distinct string and integer types will include in their standard library. Pass in a string with decimal digits and it’ll return the equivalent in the binary integer form that you can do mathematics with. I’d like to make a modest proposal that I’d find very useful, and maybe you, dear reader, would too. “The rich man in his castle, the poor man at his gate.

Companies break promises all the time. A self-guaranteeing promise does not require you to trust anyone. You can verify a self-guaranteeing promise yourself. File over app is a self-guaranteeing promise. If files are in your control, in an open format, you can use those files in another app at any time. Not an export. The exact same files.

The Great American EV Tax Credit Rush Has Begun

The great EV buying frenzy has officially begun.

Cooking oil can completely transform a dish, but using the wrong one can ruin it. While olive oil is a go-to for many home cooks, it isn't always the best choice. Its lower smoke point means it can burn at high temperatures, leaving food with an unpleasant, bitter taste. For frying, searing or any other high-heat cooking, reach for neutral oils like canola, avocado or grapeseed instead. They can withstand hotter temperatures and deliver a cleaner, crisper finish.
