The back of your phone is useless. There. I said it. Sure, the cameras are back that, but what about all of that blank real estate monopolizing 90% of the surface area? Honestly, it needs to start carry its weight around here. A fully functioning screen isn’t the answer, however. That’s a lot more battery drain, a thicker design and a much higher price tag – for what, exactly? The notion of a secondary e-ink screen is not a new one. Yota Phone did that years ago. Ultimately, however, the company declared bankruptcy…

Tushar Mehta / Digital Trends “There’s plenty of fish in the sea.” Besides its usual romantic denotation, the idiom fits the segment of Android phones very well. Android phones come with countess variations that go unseen or underappreciated in the shadow of the iPhone and Samsung Galaxy phones. There will be an Android device for every (reasonable) permutation of specifications you can conceive. But, the Poco X6 Pro is unlike other fish in the sea.

Astrophysicists at the University of Utah and the Telescope Array have detected cosmic rays with energies beyond theoretical limits, challenging existing understanding of particle physics. These discoveries, including the Oh-My-God and Amaterasu particles, point to unknown cosmic phenomena and are the focus of ongoing research.Second only to the Oh-My-God particle, the newly dubbed Amaterasu particle deepens the mystery of the origin, propagation and particle physics of rare, ultra-high-energy cosmic rays.In 1991, the…

For $800, you’re getting a small but mighty phone with Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy chipset, long-lasting battery life, and a powerful triple lens camera system with a 50-megapixel main shooter. But how does one of the best Android phones stack up against Apple’s smallest flagship, the iPhone 14 Pro? It has just as many cameras as the Galaxy S23, a powerful 48MP main camera, and costs $200 more than Samsung’s handset. I…

Last week, reputed tipster Evan Blass shared renders of the upcoming Galaxy Watch 5 and Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. It revealed a surprising decision: Samsung is ditching the only hardware feature that made its smartwatch stand out from all the other wearables in the market. Here’s a closer look at what’s changing with the Galaxy Watch 5, and why I think it’s an adverse design choice for the Android smartwatch segment as a whole.

Look! Up in the sky! Is it a bird? A plane? No, it’s super…apps. Unlike regular apps, which for years have been built to do one thing well, so-called super apps can do it all, or at least that’s the idea. By granting them powers that previously required firing up many other apps, their builders hope you’ll spend more time with them than ever. If the phrase “super app” sounds familiar, it’s because a procession of big-name tech companies have been touting the idea recently, including Uber, Spotify, PayPal, Snap and…
