Why is Bluetooth Still Such a Headache on Android?

Eric Frederiksen 2 years ago

Using Bluetooth on Android sucks. It's just miserable. It doesn't have to be, so why is it? Before we dive in: I'm not an iOS guy. I haven't owned a iPad since the iPad 2, and I've never owned an iPhone. My first Android phone was the first Android phone, the T-Mobile G1 (or HTC Dream). I'm an Android fan. But Bluetooth on Android still sucks. It's not a matter of signal quality,...

Pixel USB-C Earbuds review: Nothing Special

Eric Frederiksen 2 years ago

Usually when I dig into headphones, I'm looking at something from Sony, Sennheiser, Grado, or some other known quantities in the personal audio world. But right now, we're in a transitional period where phones are dropping headphone jacks left and right, forcing people to either go wireless or find a way to get noise from the phone's USB Type-C port up into their ears. USB Type-C...

Saturday Night Live Had No Clue What to Do With Google's Pixel 3

Justin Herrick 2 years ago

In the future, Google would like to see its Pixel phones sell in volume. But it can't get there if no one knows about the products and their features. Well, advertising exists for that reason. It's no surprise that Google's purchasing an endless number of spots across all types of media. You'll be hearing about Pixel phones in ads for as long as mobile devices are part of our lives....

Pixel 3 Welcomes More Carriers to the eSIM Lifestyle

Justin Herrick 2 years ago

eSIM was introduced on last year's Pixel 2, but it didn't gain traction as most U.S. and global carriers stayed away from the technology. The difference today? Aside from the Pixel 3 retaining the feature, Apple's iPhone XS also ships with eSIM support. So there's much more of an incentive for wireless companies to be interested. Google made an announcement this week that, over the...

25 Best Smartphone Cases To Gift This Holiday Season

Danny Zepeda 2 years ago

Smartphones have become a crucial part of our livelihoods. We use them for just about everything, be it staying connected or staying informed. But in the past few years, smartphone design has taken a brittle turn. Just about every modern smartphone is made of a metal frame sandwiched together by two very breakable pieces of glass. One wrong slip and you’ll be dealing with cracks all...

New Pixel Phone Leaks Again...Headphone Jack in Tow

Jon Rettinger 2 years ago

Rumors of a third Pixel device go back to way before Google debuted their duet of devices for this year. Turns out, where there's smoke there's fire. On the heels of last week's images showing the mysterious device, allegedly codenamed 'Sargo,' we now (thanks to Ben Geskin) have even more proof the device is real… even if it may never see production. Sargo slots in (way) below the...

Google’s Call Screen feature will soon be getting way more useful with saved transcripts. The Call Screen feature Google introduced for the Pixel 3, and very soon the Pixel 2, is one of those features you don’t realize is good until you actually try it.
