Following the homepage revamp with search in May, Google Wallet is now rolling out a redesign of passes on Android.

Following a more affordable pair of over-ear headphones that launched earlier this year, Nothing is reportedly gearing up to launch “Headphone (1) Pro” later this month.

Dreambeans is an experimental app from Google Labs that will “proactively dream up personalized daily stories.” After previously requiring a subscription, Dreambeans is now available for free Google Accounts in the US to test.

YouTube is starting its fourth season as the home of NFL Sunday Ticket and, ahead of Week 1 games, an overview of availability and pricing has been detailed, including a big discount for new customers.

As my house becomes increasingly strewn with the detritus of parenting, I’ve made the inverse effort to eliminate excess, physical and digital, from my life. As much as it is about control, it’s also about mental health; I already use my phone too much, so adding yet another thing to the backpack, to the pocket, feels anything but additive.

Following the macOS launch in April, Google is bringing the Gemini for desktop app to Windows. 

Google announced today that Android now offers a system-level way to transfer passwords and passkeys between credential managers.

Magnetic battery banks aren’t everyone’s cup of tea, but it’s hard to argue with the convenience factor they deliver. Samsung’s camera design already makes these difficult on Galaxy devices, but Galaxy Z Fold 8 only makes matters worse with a short form factor that leaves battery banks hanging way over the edge. iPhone Duo might help matters here, but the same old problem remains.

While we’re still waiting on Samsung’s first Android XR glasses to arrive, an update on the first pair with a color display has found its way online, hinting at a launch sometime towards the end of next year.

It’s been less than a day since Apple announced the iPhone Duo, and someone has already taken the instantly iconic Apple iPhone Duo unfolding animation and applied it to their Galaxy Z Fold 8. Don’t get too excited, because it isn’t exactly available for everyone.

Motorola hasn’t had a proper flagship in the US in quite some time, but a brief appearance of “Signature 27” hints that might change in the coming months.

Good morning, how did you sleep? Me, I had trouble until I started counting the number of times Apple used the word “AI” in its keynote (it was 41). In my dream, I was inundated with Elizabeth Holmes deepfakes and memes, which startled me awake. As I lay in bed, I calmed down by reading about how AI will “kill us all by the end of the decade,” and then I got up and helped ChatGPT do my kids’ homework. Such a great day.

Apps have always been a problem for foldable displays and, while they’ve gotten a lot better, there’s always room for improvement. Apple was already going to hold an advantage here, as we’ve previously discussed, but a moment during the iPhone Duo’s unveiling sticks out – Apple made fun of how Android foldables sometimes letterbox apps on the inner display, but it turns out that iOS does exactly the same thing.

The Pixel Tablet is done, as Google has officially pulled the plug on the slate by entirely deleting the listing on its store.

Apple has a track record of waiting until the kinks get worked out before it tries its own hand at new devices, but hands-on videos of the iPhone Duo are already starting to show that Apple suffers from some of the same pain points other manufacturers like Samsung do, like the beloved screen crease.

Gemini in Google Workspace can now “complete complex, cross-app tasks” from whatever app you’re working in.

Apple’s iPhone Duo announcement has triggered a couple of companies, and it’s apparently warranted at least one teaser for even more foldables. This one seems to be a wide version of the Motorola Razr Fold.

The days of foldables being an Android-only experience are over. The iPhone Duo is set to arrive next month for a relatively-competitive $2,000 price point, and it seems like Apple’s decision to sit back and observe since the launch of the original Galaxy Fold more or less paid off — that is, until you consider the iPhone Duo’s size and shape.

We’re expecting the stable release of Android 17 QPR1 in September. Before that, Google is rolling out an out-of-cycle update to the Pixel 11 series with a September 2026 security patch.

Samsung is apparently of two minds when it comes to reacting to Apple’s first foldable device, with some interesting reactions to the iPhone Duo’s unveiling, calling the device “a Sims sequel” and “reheating our leftovers.”
