When it comes to overheating, Android phones proactively take necessary measures with built-in features to help combat the issue and prevent the phone from getting exposed to extreme heat. Users are given warnings about a heating problem, and the Pixel phones, especially intelligently, slow down some of the phone's functionality, such as the charging speeds, and in a dire situation of overheating, the phone would automatically turn off to avoid incurring major damages. Now, this is being taken one step ahead with a new feature coming to the device to prevent the problem from arising in the first place. The […]

Ever since its debut on the Galaxy S24 series, Google's Circle to Search has become one of the best features to grace the Android ecosystem. Although Google was quick to ensure that other devices also got the update, the number of phones currently capable of running this feature is still small. However, the Mountain View giant shared last night at Google I/O that it has some ambitious plans for this feature. Circle to Search is the best feature that Google has released in a long, long time During the event, the company confirmed that by the end of this year, […]
The recently released Pixel 8a is one of the best phones out there in the market for those who are looking for a device that is both affordable but also packs a punch. There are several reasons as to why one should go for the device like the fact that it is more affordable than its elder siblings while maintaining most of what makes the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro so good. However, benchmarks of the newly released budget Pixel tell a slightly different story. The Pixel 8a is slower than its elder siblings but still delivers exceptional performance […]
Seems like Google was hit by the fear of missing out after Apple released some pretty nice devices during its Let Loose event. The company has decided to go ahead and officially launch the Pixel 8a. The phone was supposed to come out during the Google I/O 2024, but it seems that the Mountain View company had different plans altogether. But hey, we cannot really complain. The Pixel 8a is an excellent phone if you are not in the mood to pay flagship price There is nothing about the Pixel 8a that we don't already know. There have been extensive […]
The first Android 15 developer preview introduced a feature called "notification cooldown." The feature, which has a very simple name, worked in a rather clever way; it would simply put notifications on a cooldown as they started to get more and more annoying. Now, the feature has surfaced again, and it is going to be available in the final version, as well. Are you tired of annoying notifications? Android 15's Notification Cooldown is exactly what you need The feature is available in the Android 15 Beta 1.2, and although it is not enabled by default, it is there, which means […]
Google is going to release the Pixel 8a in less than a month, and it will be the company's answer to the affordable devices that are making their mark on the smartphone industry. So far, we have seen numerous leaks about the phones coming out, and honestly, all of them point to the fact that this is going to be a pretty stellar device for anyone who is not looking to spend a lot of money. The Pixel 8a looks stunning in both Mint and Bay colorways Today, we have something even better than the prior leaks. A new hands-on […]
It appears that we are getting a successor to the Pixel Buds Pro, as the charging case of what appears to be the Pixel Buds Pro 2 has surfaced in a listing. The listing was found on UL Demko and Safety Korea, giving us more information on Google's upcoming wearable headphones that could launch later this year alongside the Pixel 9 series. Google could announce the Pixel Buds Pro 2 next month at Google I/O 2024 with a slightly larger battery capacity for the case The listing was spotted by 91mobiles, and the source claims that the charging case for […]

Circle to Search is one of the best features that I have seen on the Galaxy S24 series and the Pixel 8 series. It is one of the features that you never really know you need until it finally arrives on your phone, and the good news is that it is now rolling out to a host of older Pixel devices, including the freshly discontinued Pixel 6a, the Pixel 6, and the Pixel 7a. In addition to that, the Galaxy S23 series and all the other Samsung devices that are due for the One UI 6.1 update are also getting […]
