Dell Premium 14 review: New name, same great laptop

engadget.com Unknown 2026-01-23 05:00:47

Every now and then companies make truly boneheaded decisions, which is exactly what happened when Dell killed off the name of its most iconic PC line and replaced it with something generic. It's like if Ford decided to rebrand Mustang and call it The Prime Sportscar instead. It doesn't make sense. But now that XPS has become Premium, it's time to see if Dell's latest flagship 14-inch ultraportable — the Dell 14 Premium (you see how dumb that sounds?) — still has the DNA that made its predecessor

engadget.com Unknown 2026-01-23 05:30:24

Google is rolling a fix for a bug that made some Pixel users' three-button navigation unresponsive with its monthly software update this August. As The Verge notes, after the company released Android 16 in June, Pixel users have been reporting that their buttons are being unresponsive or that it's taking up to 30 seconds for their device to register a tap. Some said they have to press the back button several times for the three-button menu to start working. Users from across Pixel models, includ

Here’s an early look at Gboard’s Material 3 Expressive refresh (APK teardown)

androidauthority.com Unknown 2026-01-23 12:12:40

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on a Material 3 Expressive redesign for the Gboard app settings. The redesign features a card-style user interface and a rearranged settings menu with new descriptions. Gboard is one of those apps I cannot live without, so much so that I even install it on my iPhones (which sounds blasphemous, but it works great). On Android phones, Google is working to bring a Material 3 Expressive redesign for Gboard settings, so you can enjoy a co

David Imel / Android Authority TL;DR The Galaxy S20 Ultra has received a security update, a few months after Samsung officially pulled support for the device. This update only applies to the Verizon model for now, though. Samsung’s 2020 flagship launched with the promise of four major OS upgrades and five years of security updates.

Google We’re still a few weeks away from Google’s official launch day for the Pixel 10 series, but as is tradition in the technology world, the phones have no secrets anymore. Even Google has already shown us the Pixel 10 series a few times, and many other rumors and tidbits have slipped through other cracks. At face value, though, this seems like a minor upgrade across the board. The phones look pretty much the same as last year, and there are no significant camera changes, so I’ve been feeli

Galaxy S26 Edge leak reveals just how thin Samsung’s next Edge could be

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR A leaker has claimed that the Samsung Galaxy S26 Edge will be 5.5mm thin. This means it could be as thick as the rumored iPhone 17 Air and slightly thinner than the Galaxy S25 Edge. The leaker also reiterated that the phone could have a 4,200mAh battery. Numerous leaks suggest that Samsung will replace the Galaxy S26 Plus with the Galaxy S26 Edge.

The History and Physics of the Atomic Bomb

In 1938, Italian physicist Enrico Fermi, who had fled to New York to escape fascism, discovered a material in which a process of this type occurred: uranium. Fearing that the Nazis might also discover this element’s capability of producing a chain reaction, the Manhattan Project was born in 1940, a secret program for the development of nuclear weapons led by Arthur Compton.
