The upcoming Nothing Phone 2a has been officially confirmed and is poised to mark the company's entry into the budget smartphone segment. Drawing inspiration

Xiaomi is set to announce the Xiaomi 14 Ultra globally on Feb. 25. However, the brand will first hold a dedicated launch event in China on Feb. 22 to unveil

Android 15 (code named Vanilla Ice Cream) is set to revolutionize user experiences, promising enhanced productivity, superior media capabilities, optimized battery impact

Automatic updates broke your phone; the fix is a highly technical manual process.

The 2020 lawsuit said Google was deceiving people into thinking that they could control the information they're willing to share.

Victory Royale.

Candy Crush would have been the gateway drug.

Addendum: it's not that it unplugs completely, but rather the USB DAC loses power and/or data connection.

The number of members is enough to create a healthy community without attracting spammers.
What's missing now is more participation and post creation. Don't be shy, if you find an article that is about Android-or Google, since the two sometimes coincide-share it with the rest of us.

All the displays, cameras, batteries, and back plate are now for sale.

Automatic Chromebook expiration dates still "fundamentally flawed," critics say.

No facilities, no parts, not covered by warranty.

Chrome now directly tracks users, generates a "topic" list it shares with advertisers.

We’ve released an early edition of Element X in the Google Play Store.
