Adamya Sharma / Android Authority Google took a small risk with the Pixel 9a design. In an age when the next generation of an Android phone can often look like a carbon copy of its predecessor, there’s always something refreshing about seeing a significant revamp. That said, it’s not always going to be considered a winning change, and we were curious to know if you felt it was an upgrade. We ran a few polls to find out. In our article in which one of our polls was run, Adamya Sharma summarized

Updated at 11:37 a.m. on April 9, 2025 When you inhale a microscopic speck of soot, its journey may go like this: The particle enters your nose and heads into your lungs, penetrating even the tiny air sacs that facilitate gas exchange. Next it may slip into your bloodstream and flow into your heart, or past the blood-brain barrier. Most of us inhale some of these tiny particles every day. But inhaling enough can turn the act of breathing into an existential hazard, prompting or worsening asth

This story originally appeared on Vox and is part of the Climate Desk collaboration. The warming spring air is a welcome relief from the bitterly cold winter across much of the US, but millions of seasonal allergy sufferers are getting buried under a pollen tsunami, with sneezing, headaches, watery eyes, and stuffed sinuses sending them right back indoors. Already, Atlanta has broken its pollen count record, with 14,801 grains per cubic meter spewing from pine, oak, and birch trees. Houston al

When I experienced the Southern California wildfires in January, I quickly learned just how much poor air quality can affect our bodies. Even though I had an air purifier to help clean the air in my apartment, it still impacted both my physical and mental health. It turns out that it can also have an effect on how we exercise. "Indoor environments with poor air quality such as elevated CO₂ levels, particulate matter (PM2.5) and VOCs can reduce the oxygen available to muscles and the brain," Joa

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority Data is the currency of the digital age, and people are more wary than ever of giving away too much of their personal info to Big Tech.

Air pollution kills millions every year — where does it come from? A breakdown of the sources of many air pollutants that damage our health and ecosystems. Millions of people die prematurely from air pollution every year. This problem has existed since humans started burning materials for fuel — first wood and biomass, then fossil fuels. But it’s an environmental and public health problem that we can make progress on. We know this because the world has already been successful in reducing air p

An emergency situation that turned out to be mostly a false alarm led a lot of schools in Los Angeles to install air filters, and something strange happened: Test scores went up. By a lot. And the gains were sustained in the subsequent year rather than fading away. That’s what NYU’s Michael Gilraine finds in a new working paper titled “Air Filters, Pollution, and Student Achievement” that looks at the surprising consequences of the Aliso Canyon gas leak in 2015.

Around 10% of people in Europe suffer from depression after giving birth, experiencing symptoms that include sadness, agitation, and difficulty concentrating. For such a common condition — and one that has been linked to poorer outcomes for both the baby and the parent — postpartum depression has been relatively under-studied, write the authors of new work in Science of the Total Environment. In a bid to help address this, they ran a detailed study of one proposed risk factor — exposure to air p

I don’t review a lot of $650 headphones. That’s because most audio companies sell their top-of-the-line gear around $300-$400. Noble Audio isn’t like most companies. The FoKus Rex5 earbuds, for example, cram in five separate drivers where much of the competition uses two at the most. Noble was also among the first to employ xMEMS drivers in wireless earbuds in a bid to improve bass performance. Enter the FoKus Apollo, a $649 pair of active noise canceling (ANC) headphones with a detachable boom

A researcher has identified a surprising source of plastic pollution: chewing gum. In an essay for The Conversation, microplastics expert David Jones of the UK's University of Portsmouth revealed that most modern chewing gum contains "a variety of oil-based synthetic rubbers," akin to the stuff that car tires are made of — which is not only going into our bodies, but also the environment upon being spat out. Mysteriously, Wrigley, the maker of "Double Mint" gum and the world's largest manufact

You know microplastics, the little bits of plastic trash that've so deeply permeated the Earth that they've been found in clouds, rocks, caves that were sealed off from all humans, and even our brains, arteries, hearts, and sperm? Well, now scientists are warning that these dastardly particles could undermine the entire world's food supplies by undercutting plants' ability to photosynthesize.
