Apple's iPhone 17 may look like business as usual at first glance, but this year's update is a bigger jump than we've come to expect from the vanilla line. In fact, the jump from the iPhone 16 to the iPhone 17 feels like one of the more meaningful generational steps we've seen in recent years. Of course, the iPhone 16 remains a solid performer. But compared side by side, the iPhone 17 clearly feels like the more modern and complete package - not just a small refinement, but a proper evolution for Apple's mainstream iPhone. However, as a few of our test findings will suggest, newer is...
We know that most people won’t care about this at all, but if you are reading this article, you are likely among the minority that might actually rejoice to learn that Samsung might be catching up to Google’s own Pixel devices in this one admittedly very niche aspect. Our colleagues over at Android Authority got access to some leaked logs from the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra. In them, they spotted a mention of the Android Virtualization Framework (AVF) – a key component in running a full Linux terminal that was absent from the Galaxy S25 Ultra. The S26 Ultra is expected to debut with One UI...

The Realme P4 Power was unveiled earlier this week and its headline feature is its massive 10,001mAh battery. In press materials, Realme compares it to a typical 10,000mAh power bank and says that the phone is 43% thinner (it’s 9.08mm thick) and is 14% lighter (weighing 219g). That’s impressive, but can you actually use the P4 Power as a power bank? We decided to put it to the test. Here’s the setup – we started with a fully-charged Realme P4 Power and a nearly-dead iPhone 17 Pro, which was sitting at just 7% battery. We connected the two with a USB C-to-C cable and a device that can...

So keep in mind that the percentage of devices running Android 16 today is definitely at least somewhat...
