We recently saw reports from users claiming that Google is offering only 5GB of free storage with a new Gmail account, instead of 15GB, but if they added their phone number to the new account, Google would "unlock" 15GB storage at no cost. Google has revealed the reason behind that.
In a statement to Android Authority, a Google spokesperson said the company is testing this change to help it continue to provide a "high-quality storage service" to its users.

The hidden-looking 176-bit messages appear tied to the Pentagon's Over-the-Air Distribution system for remotely updating cryptographic keys, meaning ordinary GPS receivers may have been receiving the traffic all along without anyone outside the military noticing....

Honor already released the first two phones of its Win series - the regular Win and the Win RT, both with active cooling fans and 10,000 mAh batteries. However, the Win Turbo that just launched today in China focuses more on utilizing that huge battery to the fullest. There's no cooling fan, and the chipset is less power-hungry. The Honor Win Turbo runs on the Dimensity 8500 chipset, which draws... Read more ›

Samsung launched the first "Classic" smartwatch with the Galaxy Watch4 in 2021, but it wasn't a part of all the Galaxy Watch lineups that arrived later, as Samsung launched the Classic model with alternate generations, meaning the Watch5 and Watch7 didn't have a Classic version, but the Watch6 and Watch8 series did. Considering that pattern, we weren't expecting Samsung to launch a Classic smartwatch this year, but a new development... Read more ›

It took a while, but the Samsung Galaxy A57 is finally up on Amazon – and it kicks things off with a $60 discount. That’s a bit less than the A37 discount, but it’s enough to shift the balance of power between the two. The A37 is the cheaper model and if you can live with 6GB of RAM and 128GB non-expandable storage, then yes, it is meaningfully cheaper. But... Read more ›

Last year, the Xiaomi 15T Pro easily won over the vanilla 15T in our poll. Now that the 17T generation has arrived, will history repeat itself? There is a good chance that it might not – the new vanilla model brings some key improvements that could improve its fortunes, but there are some issues too. The biggest issue may be the price – the Xiaomi 17T starts at €750, while... Read more ›
