The Galaxy Z Flip 8 is at its best when there’s friction

What do you want from a flip phone when it’s closed? A simple interface, perhaps notifications and a widget or two, for handling the basics? Or a fully fledged Android experience shrunk down for the Flip form factor? For years, Samsung has insisted on the former, even as some fans – and Razr rival Motorola […]

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 FE pairs last year’s hardware with last month’s software

The Fan Edition phones are rarely Samsung’s most exciting launches of the year, but the new Galaxy S26 FE feels especially familiar. Hardware-wise, little has changed since the S25 FE launched 12 months ago, and the upgrades have mostly come in the form of software tricks which themselves were already seen on this year’s previous […]

The 9,210mAh dual-cell battery in the new Redmi Note 17 Pro Max is the biggest that Xiaomi has fit in any phone it’s sold in Europe – and remarkably, in some other markets the phone comes with an even larger 10,000mAh single-cell design.

How to take better photos of your pets

Like the pets of any self-respecting millennial, my cats have their own Instagram account. Noodle and Loaf – aka Carb Cats – aren’t exactly celebrities. But they are used to having their photos taken a lot. Between their Instagram account, my regular need to test smartphone cameras, and the fact that they are two adorable […]

Google is making the Pixel cameras better by making them worse

If you look at a photo taken by a smartphone today, it’s hard to find much that’s technically wrong. Faces are bright and visible. The skies are pristine and blue. Even at night, scenes are well lit and noise-free. If the physical limitations of a tiny camera are what you’re trying to solve for, you […]

Honor’s Robot Phone is better than a gimbal in a phone has any right to be

The Robot Phone, which launches today in China, doesn’t sound like a good idea – and not only because it’s not actually a robot. Instead it’s a regular Android smartphone with its main camera installed on a compact gimbal arm that unfolds from the phone’s rear. Cramming the equivalent of a DJI Osmo Pocket inside […]

Google’s upcoming Pixel phones are for the fans, even if its launch event isn’t

Last year’s Made by Google event for the Pixel 10 resembled a late night talk show, complete with Jimmy Fallon as host, and it aired an hour after the phones were revealed. Spec dives and executive appearances were replaced with celebrity cameos and awkward skits, to the confusion of many diehard Pixel fans. But it […]
