Whether on purpose or by accident, Amazon Canada has pitted Google Pixel and Samsung Galaxy phones against each other with discounts ranging from $200 to $300. The Samsung Galaxy S24 is more compact than the Google Pixel 9 (6.2” vs. 6.3” displays, 70.6mm vs. 72mm wide) and is lighter too (167g vs. 198g). It does have a smaller battery, though (4,000mAh vs. 4,700mAh). The Galaxy also has an LTPO display. Note that both the Pixels and the Galaxys will receive software updates for 7 years since launch. The Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 in the Samsung easily beats the Tensor G4 of the Pixel, but...

Amazon is calling this an early Black Friday sale and of the various offers that it includes, we focused in on the Google phones. The Pixel 9 series is £100 off across the board (except the foldable, which is £300 off), while the 8-series is up to 50% off. Starting with the base Google Pixel 9, you get the new Tensor G4 chipset, which is faster and more efficient than the G3. The dual camera combines a large 1/1.31” 50MP sensor in the main with a 48MP 123° ultra wide. The 6.3” OLED display is not an LTPO panel, but it does run at 120Hz. As for the battery, it has 4,700mAh capacity and...

Indonesia banned the sales of Google Pixel phones just days after it did the same with iPhone 16 devices. The reason remains the same – the company failed to provide 40% content, so its units will be blocked from getting a certification to operate in the Asian country. Local media outlet Kontan reported that 22,000 Pixels were already in the country through personal shipments or carry-on items, quoting a Ministry of Industry spokesperson after a press briefing. 40% local content must be provided by manufacturing products locally, developing software locally, or setting up R&D...

According to a new rumor, Google will only launch a new Pixel tablet every two years. The Pixel Tablet 2 is thus coming in 2025, and the Pixel Tablet 3 in 2027. Also in 2027, the company will launch the affordable Pixel 11a. These two devices will theoretically use the same Tensor chip as the flagship Pixel line, but in practice things won't quite be identical. Google is allegedly going to fuse off defective parts of the TPU to save chips that normally would have to be discarded. These chips will then be used in the Pixel 11a and Pixel Tablet 3. Google Pixel 8a Thus, they could...

Google might launch the Pixel 9a in March 2025, but a full specs sheet of the smartphone already appeared online. Multiple sources told Android Headlines that the new phone will have a big 6.3" display, which is the same screen from the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro flagships. Google is expected to equip the Pixel 9a with its latest Tensor G4 chipset, coupling it with 8 GB RAM and 128 GB or 256 GB storage. The leak also confirmed once again the 5,000 mAh battery, which will support up to 18W wired and 7.5W wireless charging. The new phone is expected to have the 48 MP Sony IMX787 sensor...

Google's Pixel 9a is due to launch sooner than its predecessors according to past rumors, and today a new detail about it has been leaked. The phone will allegedly have a 5,000 mAh battery, which is bigger than the Pixel 8a's 4,492 mAh cell. This obviously means you should expect it to have better longevity than the Pixel 8a. Previous leaks also told us that the Pixel 9a will have a 48 MP main camera, perhaps borrowed from the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Google's most expensive smartphone. The 13 MP ultrawide will stay the same, though. The Pixel 9a is expected to launch around mid-March,...

There have been a lot of Pixel leaks today, and now we have another one. This is all about the Pixel 10 and Pixel 11's camera features, which unsurprisingly have AI all over them. But first, let's start with hardware. The Pixel 11 Pro coming in 2026 is expected to sport a "next-gen" telephoto camera, one that will use its hardware in concert with AI features to bring 100x zoom for both photos and videos. Cinematic Blur will be updated on the Pixel 11 Pro as well, with support for 4K30fps and a new "video relight" option that does what it implies - changes the lighting conditions...

Google's Pixel 11, coming in 2026, is now rumored to resurrect a feature last seen on the Pixel 4 from 2019. Google is apparently considering adding an under-display infrared camera to the Pixel 11 generation, thus enabling secure face unlocking. The last time a Pixel had something like that was in 2019 with the Pixel 4. Google then gave up on the feature, only to now be thinking about reintroducing it in a new vein (this is something the company does do a lot). While the Pixel 4 had to have a massive top bezel for its screen to accommodate the tech, the Pixel 11 will place the IR camera...

Google's Pixel 9a is expected to land in March, and we've already seen it in some intriguing leaked renders, which very much highlighted its lack of a camera bar/visor thing. Now a new rumor tells us the Pixel 9a will ditch the 64 MP main camera of its predecessors, and will instead borrow the 48 MP unit used in the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Google's most expensive smartphone. The Pro Fold being a foldable device, and one not made by a Chinese manufacturer, you shouldn't expect top level quality. But still, this should be a better snapper than what the Pixel a line has had before. While...
