Amazon has discounted the TCL TAB 10 Gen 4, a 10.1-inch Android tablet, by 15% off its retail price, bringing it down to $169.99. The price cut positions the device as an affordable option in the budget tablet segment.
Instagram has launched a feature allowing users to add posts they're tagged in directly onto their main profile grid, without reposting or duplicating the content. Users can add these posts from tag notifications, the post itself, or the Tagged tab, and can remove them from their grid at any time without affecting the original post or their Tagged tab.
Instagram now allows users to promote posts they're tagged in—such as group photos or collaborations—directly onto their main profile grid, rather than leaving them buried in the separate Tagged tab. Users can add posts via DM notifications, the post's three-dot menu, or by pressing and holding items in the Tagged tab, and can remove them later without deleting the original post. Added posts appear in reverse-chronological order but can be manually reordered, building on Instagram's June feature allowing custom post arrangement.
Google has started rolling out a new 'Remembered' tab within its Find Hub app, letting users log the locations of untracked physical objects using Gemini AI or manual entry. The feature, previously announced as part of the September Android Drop, appears in app version 3.1.732-02 but is not yet widely available to all users.
At IFA 2026, Lenovo unveiled two premium Android tablets, the Yoga Tab Gen 2 and Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2, both featuring 144Hz 4K displays, stylus support, and last year's flagship chips from MediaTek and Qualcomm respectively.

Android Authority found a new Customize option in Google Photos version 7.90.0 that lets users drag and rearrange folders like On This Device, Places, and People & Pets within the Collections tab. The tool also allows hiding certain albums entirely, though the recently added pinned section can only be hidden, not reordered.
A Geekbench 7 listing for the Galaxy Tab S12 Ultra (SM-X940) reveals it running MediaTek's Dimensity 9500 chip with 12GB of RAM and Android 17 preinstalled. The device scored 2,760 in single-core and 9,291 in multi-core, notably higher than a comparable Galaxy Tab S11 Ultra result.
A tech writer at Android Authority compiled ten practical features in Google Chrome for Android that they use regularly, including customizing the toolbar shortcut to open new tabs instead of Gemini, sharing links to highlighted text on a webpage, and forcing websites into dark mode. The list draws on years of personal use to surface settings many users may not know exist.
An unreleased feature discovered in Google Photos version 7.90 lets users long-press albums, folders, or people to pin them as shortcuts in a new horizontal bar at the top of the Collections tab. Android Authority manually activated the hidden option and found it largely functional, including a dedicated Edit menu for reordering pinned items and browsing library categories.
Microsoft has released PowerToys version 0.101.2362.0, introducing a new utility called Window Hopper that lets users cycle only through windows belonging to the currently active app using a configurable Alt+backtick shortcut. The update also brings a compact search-box mode for Command Palette, synced brightness controls across multiple displays via PowerDisplay, Windows-key activation for Shortcut Guide, a new DemoMirror feature for ZoomIt, and a ripple effect for Mouse Highlighter.
