    Accessories PSA: Tempered Glass Screen Protectors

    The Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro are the first Google devices to use an optical under-display fingerprint sensor. These work by illuminating the spot where you place your finger so that the camera under the screen can see your fingerprints. Many users have already found that some tempered glass...

    Anyone on Matrix?

    I just recently discovered Matrix.org and the beautiful Element client. Combined, they offer secure end-to-end-encrypted communications between individuals or even large groups wrapped up in a well-designed and easy-to-use interface. I'm a pretty big fan so far. It also seems to have rated well...

    Reviews I have the Pixel 5 - AMA

    I spent some time with the Pixel 4a earlier, and now I've had a chance to use the Pixel 5 as well. Let me tell you, these are both fantastic phones, and I'm really excited about what Google has done with the Pixel line this year. The 4a is just $349 and offers an unparalleled user experience...

    Pixel 5 Full Specs

    I'm sure these have been regurgitated to death, but I really like the clean no-fuss way the details are presented over in the Pixel Help Center: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/answer/7158570

    Reviews I've got the 4a - AMA

    Hey guys, I've spent a few weeks using the new Pixel 4a as my primary device, and I've got to tell you that this phone is awesome. I've used every Pixel released so far and this $350 beauty is quite possibly my favorite. The OLED display is visibly larger than that of the Pixel 3 and Pixel...

    Post-Announcement Thoughts? Who's getting one?

    So now that the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL have been officially unveiled and the official full specs posted, what do you think? I was really impressed by the camera-related stuff. That super-magic-zoom that they demonstrated was straight nuts - I really want to couple that up with a spotting scope...

    Pixel 3a Announcement

    I don't know about you guys but I'm honestly more excited about the 3a than I was about the Pixel 3 - and I love my Pixel 3. https://blog.google/products/pixel/io-pixel-3a/ You're getting 95% of the same experience (including that industry-leading camera) for half the price.

    Help Pixelbook Uncertified

    The Google giveth and the Google taketh away... So while it seems like Chrome OS v62 (stable) brought with it an experimental Night Light feature, it's not all good news. I noticed after a powerwash (reset) yesterday that I could no longer install some Android apps, like Netflix and The Elder...

    Night Light!

    It seems like Night Light has been available in the Dev and Beta Chrome OS channels for a bit, but I just realized that it's also accessible with the v62 Stable that's on my PixelBook. Just head over to chrome://flags/#ash-enable-night-light, enable it, restart, and dip over to Settings >...

    Help Ticking sound?

    I've noticed a faint ticking sound when I hold my Pixel 2's earpiece up to my ear while the screen is unlocked, and it seems that I'm not alone. It's very quiet - on par with a ticking wristwatch - and seems to occur every half-second or so. I've also found that it only happens while NFC is...

    I'm loving this launcher!

    I stepped away from Action Launcher 3 last week to give Evie a spin (after reading an interview with its developer by +JR Raphael: http://www.computerworld.com/article/3186755/), and I'm honestly rather surprised by how much I'm enjoying it. I figured it would be like most other non-AL3...
