Something truly groundbreaking just happened in the Android gaming world. Android Authority reports that Eden Emulator has become the first Nintendo Switch emulator to land on the Google Play Store, a milestone that felt impossible just months ago. This is not just another emulation story. It is a shift that could reshape how we think about mobile gaming and platform boundaries. Eden is a fork of one of the most successful and infamous Switch emulators, now available for devices running Android...

Samsung's latest security update isn't just another routine patch, it's an emergency response to a critical zero-day vulnerability that attackers are actively exploiting right now. Samsung has rolled out its September 2025 security update, tackling a flaw so severe that it's already being used to execute remote code on Galaxy devices in the wild.

Drivers across brands and phone models are reporting the same thing, turning a simple commute into an audio mess. Multiple reports on Reddit point to a bug that causes music to stutter and skip when connected to Android Auto wirelessly. The issue shows up regardless of phone brand.

The Google Pixel 10 has been making waves in the tech community, and for good reason. iFixit's teardown reveals that this phone is shaping up to be one of the most repairable smartphones of 2025. With significant improvements over previous Pixel models and a provisional repairability score of 6 out of 10, Google seems to be listening to consumers who want devices that can actually be fixed. This is not just about making repairs easier, it is about making smartphones more sustainable and...

Google just dropped something that could fundamentally reshape how we handle digital content authenticity, and honestly, it is about time. Google announced on September 10, 2025, that the Pixel 10 phones support the Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity, C2PA, right out of the box to verify the origin and history of digital content. This is not a routine spec bump. It is a direct response to the flood of AI generated media that keeps getting harder to spot with the naked eye.

Google's latest move might surprise you. It fits a bigger pattern across the tech landscape. Google is shutting down Tables, its ambitious Airtable rival that launched on September 22, 2020. The platform, which let users create database tables and design custom views through kanban boards, offered 100 tables with 1,000 rows each for free. Here's the twist, Tables has been discontinued in favor of Google AppSheet, marking another chapter in Google's complex relationship with productivity tools.

Samsung's Galaxy XR headset is finally stepping out of the shadows, and this is way more than just another VR device announcement. After years under the Project Moohan codename, Samsung's answer to Apple's Vision Pro is taking shape with some serious credentials. The big hook is software and timing, the headset will use Google-made Android XR software and is tapped to arrive in October 2025, putting it squarely in the premium XR ring.

Samsung's camera innovation has always been impressive. Plot twist, though, Samsung Electro-Mechanics is developing a telephoto module with continuous optical zoom, yet Samsung is pitching the tech to Chinese brands like Xiaomi, which are usually quicker to adopt experimental features. And get this, Samsung has already filed patents in 2024 and 2025, so the work has been in motion for a while. If Samsung is building the future of zoom, why aren't Galaxy phones getting first dibs?

So you’ve heard about Google’s latest flagship and its promise of an impressive display experience, but the real question is: does the Pixel 10 Pro actually live up to its user-friendly claims? The phone packs a 6.3-inch screen delivering 2,856 by 1,280 pixels resolution, with peak brightness soaring up to 3,300 nits. At 495 pixels per inch, it is technically the sharpest display in the entire Pixel 10 lineup. What matters, though, is how those specs feel in your hand, on a bright sidewalk, or...

Samsung just dropped the Galaxy Tab S11 series at its latest Unpacked event, and while the new tablets bring some welcome refinements, they might not be the game-changing upgrade everyone hoped for. The Tab S11 and S11 Ultra add an improved S Pen and a slimmer, more compact design. Look closer and you may find there is not enough here to justify spending at least $800 just a year after buying a Tab S10. Here is why the Galaxy Tab S9 might actually be the smarter buy right now.

Samsung's aggressive push toward the One UI 8 stable release is picking up serious momentum, and it feels like a shift in how the company handles big software drops. After months of beta testing that started back in May, the pieces are finally falling into place for what could be Samsung's most polished update in years.

Google's decision to roll out its Gemini AI chatbot to children under 13 has lit up the tech community. The assistant is arriving through Family Link accounts, and it is "on" by default. Parents must actively turn it off to restrict access. Google says children's data will not be used to train the AI, yet experts are raising serious red flags about the rollout.

Google's latest encounter with EU regulators isn't just another tech fine story; it's a $3.5 billion wake-up call that could reshape the entire digital advertising landscape. The European Commission hit Google with a €2.95 billion penalty for abusing its dominant position in the advertising technology industry, marking the fourth antitrust fine for the tech giant. The move follows a formal investigation that opened in June 2021, which examined whether Google violated competition rules by...

Google's regulatory reckoning has finally arrived—and it's expensive. The tech giant is facing a historic $3.5 billion fine from European authorities for breaking antitrust laws, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. With courts finding Google liable for maintaining monopoly power and global antitrust enforcement fines hitting $6.7 billion in 2024—more than double 2023's total—we're witnessing a fundamental shift in how regulators approach Big Tech monopolies.

The latest leaked renders of Samsung's Galaxy S26 Edge tell a neat little engineering story. Android Authority highlights measurements that show the tightrope walk of modern phone design. The S26 Edge is slimmer at its thinnest point, measuring 158.4 x 75.7 x 5.5mm compared to the S25 Edge's 158.2 x 75.6 x 5.8mm. Here is the kicker: the camera bump grows. Total thickness hits 10.8mm including the bump, up from the S25 Edge's 10mm.

When Google dropped its latest AI image editing feature, something unexpected happened. Millions of people suddenly started caring about AI image generation. The tool everyone calls "Nano Banana" did what countless AI products tried and failed to do: it actually got regular people excited about artificial intelligence.

The tech industry is facing unprecedented antitrust scrutiny, with regulators worldwide launching investigations, imposing massive fines, and even floating breakups of major technology companies. Yet in Silicon Valley, the chatter says we might already be past the crest. That shift lines up with political developments that point to a more balanced regulatory environment in 2025. At the same time, the rapid rise of generative AI has pushed agencies to zero in on new M&A and alliances in the AI...
