androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-28 13:13:08

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Gemini has finally received another long-awaited Google Assistant feature. The chatbot can now identify songs playing nearby using the Google app’s Song Search feature. Previously, Gemini would recommend using third-party music recognition apps when asked to identify a song. Gemini lacked several Google Assistant features at launch, but steady updates from Google have brought it closer to being a comprehensive replacement for the legacy voice assistant.

Samsung is trying to figure out why it lost Pixel 10 chip production, but we all know why

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-03-27 12:42:53

TL;DR Samsung is “intensively analyzing” Google’s switch from Samsung to TSMC for Pixel chip production. The move apparently came as a “shock” to Samsung last month. TSMC is generally considered superior to Samsung when it comes to chip manufacturing. Google has used Samsung to manufacture its Tensor smartphone chips since 2021, but the Pixel 10 series is widely tipped to be made by rival manufacturer TSMC.

iPhone 16E Specs vs. Google Pixel 8A: How Apple and Google's Lower-Cost Phones Match Up

Google's A-series Pixel handsets are typically budget-friendly, but currently the cheapest Google goes is $499 for the Pixel 9A. If you do want all of Google's flagship features and are comfortable with getting a used or refurbished device, you could check out last year's Pixel 8A which is going for under $300 in the secondary market. Strangely, Google is currently selling the Pixel 8A for the same price as the Pixel 9A, so it doesn't make sense to buy a new version of the Pixel 8A. A sub-$300
