I switched to the Pixel 10 from the Pixel 10 Pro: Here’s how it went!

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-03 16:00:03

For anyone who’s been following my recent work here at Android Authority or over on my YouTube channel, you’ll know that I’m a big Pixel fan. I’ve been on Team Pixel for years, and when the Pixel 10 series launched, I jumped on the Pixel 10 Pro on day one. And honestly? I absolutely love it. It’s a phenomenal device that packs an incredible amount of power into a relatively compact and beautifully designed body. The camera system is a dream, the software is clean and intuitive, and even the subt

Google is quietly testing a better app launch shortcut for the Pixel Launcher

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-05 04:55:55

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Currently, when you search for an app on the Pixel Launcher, tapping the bottom-right keyboard button searches the app’s name on Google Search. Some users are seeing that keyboard button change to an arrow/open shortcut, allowing you to quickly open an app right from the keyboard. Google only appears to be testing this with a small number of users, with unclear plans for a wider rollout. The Pixel Launcher‘s search bar is already one of its best features,

Mystic Leaks on Telegram says the Pixel 10a may launch by the end of the year. The Pixel 10 and 10 Pro were only just released last month, but rumors are already trickling in about Google’s next big phone announcement, the Pixel 10a.

128GB Pixels aren’t doomed, thanks to this Google Photos hack

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-10-06 15:00:25

Andy Walker / Android Authority I wholeheartedly believe that 128GB of base storage on modern Android flagships should be a thing of the past. It’s just too little at this point when system files and updates already block a sizeable chunk of it, and the remaining is taken up by the ever-ballooning app sizes — God knows what kind of data they are storing, because Excel has no business running into hundreds of MBs (or sometimes GBs). And did you see what a clown the newly launched Pixel 10 series

A Look into Intel Xeon 6's Memory Subsystem

news.ycombinator.com Chester Lam 2025-10-03 00:01:14

Intel’s server dominance has been shaken by high core count competition from the likes of AMD and Arm. Xeon 6, Intel’s latest server platform, aims to address this with a more scalable chiplet strategy. Chiplets are now arranged side by side, with IO chiplets on either side of the chip. It’s reminiscent of the arrangement Huawei used for Kunpeng 920, but apparently without the uniform chiplet height restrictions of Huawei’s design. Intel also scales up to three compute dies, as opposed to a maxi

Google speaks up about expanding access to call recording on Pixel phones

Considering how easily your smartphone snaps a picture, shoots a video, or records a voice memo, it should be a lot more shocking than it is that so many Android users still struggle to access basic voice call recording. A complicated legal framework certainly doesn’t help matters any, but a few weeks back we found ourselves newly hopeful that things were getting better, as Google updated its support documentation to indicate that call recording was coming to Pixel 6 and newer devices.

TL;DR Google has published new promo videos for the Pixel 10 and Pixel 10 Pro. The Pixel 10 clip is classic Google, criticizing Apple fans for their “vanilla” choices. The Pixel 10 Pro spot, on the other hand, is far more ethereal, and is more about making an impression.

It’s been 10 years since Google released the Nexus 6P, the last phone to bear the Nexus name before the Google Pixel followed it in 2016. Usually, a phone turning 10 is nothing more than an opportunity to wax nostalgic about a beloved device from the past. I think the Nexus 6P is different because a decade later, we’re still feeling the ripples of the splash this phone made, from its incredible camera to its timeless design.

A few years ago, small phones seemed to be going the way of the headphone jack, the removable battery, and the dodo. They were disappearing at an alarming rate, making way for 6.5-inch displays to become the floor rather than the ceiling. It felt like before long, the iPhone would be the only actual small phone left — not a great sign for us Android fans. Then, things flipped.
