For an increasing number of people, the Galaxy S line is just a flat-out better choice than the Galaxy Note; and the situation isn't looking to improve with the Note 20.
T-Mobile now has a full standards-compliant RCS implementation, meaning its customers can have advanced messaging features even when talking to people on other carriers around the world.
After having one of the worst experiences for users on Android 10 or with curved screens, Slack's latest update is a shining example of what all developers should do with their apps.
Google and Apple partnered to launch their COVID-19 exposure tracking and notification system on May 20 — here's what you need to know about it.
The Pixel 4a is apparently delayed another month, but the explanation is the best I've heard yet; it's economical, not technological. The phones are ready to go, but it makes sense to not launch a budget-minded phone into this economy.
A new report shows Verizon has by far the fastest 5G speeds — but its network is so small it doesn't even matter.

Samsung used to be the worst offender making carrier-specific phone variants and hobbling unlocked models. Now, it's a prime example of what every company should be doing for unlocked customers.
I don't actually believe that the Pixel camera team is in jeopardy because it lost its lead engineer. But it's worth thinking about just how important Levoy's departure is when you take into account that camera quality is the main reason to buy a Pixel over other phones.
News about a few high-level departures doesn't have to spell more doom and gloom for Pixel phones or their fans — there's still plenty of positivity here, even with a shuffle in the high ranks of the Pixel team.

Buying an expensive leather case for your earbuds case may seem overkill at first. But when you get something as nice as the Nomad Rugged Case for your Pixel Buds, you may change your tune.
The Pixel 3a and 3a XL are so similar, it can seem tough at first to make a choice on which is right for you. Actually, it's quite easy.
