Posted: 02 Jun 2022 12:59 PM PDT

A couple of days ago a Google Pixel 7 prototype did the rounds over on eBay and Facebook Marketplace, live images and all, and it didn't take very long for its bigger brother to be subjected to a similar treatment. This time around there isn't anyone trying to sell a prototype, but live images of it have been leaked even so. The Pixel 7 Pro has an additional camera compared to the Pixel 7, but otherwise the design seems very similar on the back, with the new metal camera visor that wraps into the frame on both sides. It's similar enough to the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro's visor that it's...

Posted: 02 Jun 2022 07:37 AM PDT

The Moto G series has a mix of 4G and 5G phones. The latest Moto G52 missed out due to its 4G-only Snapdragon 680 chipset and, by the sound of it, the Moto G42 will use the same chipset. Leaked info shows that the upcoming Motorola Moto G62 will offer 5G connectivity, though it will use an unimpressive chipset to do so. The G62 will reportedly be powered by the Snapdragon 480+, the same chipset that was used in the Moto G51 5G last year. While it uses newer CPU cores and a more powerful Adreno GPU, the 480+ is fabbed on the older 8nm process, while the 680 is on a 6nm node. Anyway, here...

The information comes from Ice Universe, a well-known leakster with detailed information about the Samsung ecosystem. They claim the previous rumors about the weight of 258g and 260g are not accurate, and the upcoming Fold will be the lightest ever, about 5% lighter than the Z Fold 3. The...

Qualcomm wants to buy ARM with a consortium of companies

Posted: 02 Jun 2022 04:17 AM PDT

SoftBank is still looking to offload ARM after the failed acquisition bid from Nvidia. Qualcomm is interested, but after regulators killed the Nvidia deal over concerns that it will harm competition, there is no hope for a straight acquisition. Instead, the company has a different plan – or should we say an old plan, since reports from two years ago indicated that Samsung was considering a similar idea. The plan is to build a consortium of companies, each of which will own a small chunk of ARM. "You'd need to have many companies participating so they have a net effect that ARM is...

YouTube is announcing an exciting new feature today, which may prove very useful for those who have a YouTube app on their TV. Before, in order to use your phone to control that app, you'd have to go down the Cast route, and it was clunky.
