I spent over a week using the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold as my daily driver. While there are many improvements on the design, display, and hardware over the original, there are a few setbacks too. So, here's what I genuinely think about Google's latest Foldable venture!
The Pixel Watch 3 has a new LTPO AMOLED display, new Wear OS 5, Fitbit integration, and continuous heart rate detection. The Galaxy Watch 7 also has Wear OS 5, more software updates, a slightly longer battery life, more sports modes, and better workout and sleep detection. So, in this comparison, we'll pit these timepieces against one another to see which one you should acquire.
Both Pixel Watch 2 and Galaxy Watch 7 are great devices but the latter is a tad bit better at everything. Samsung Health is more comprehensive and completely free whereas Fitbit has fewer features, some of which are locked behind subscriptions. The Pixel Watch 2 is slightly more accurate in terms of tracking, but Galaxy Watches are not far off and more than makes up with Samsung Health's features. Overall, the Galaxy Watch 7 is a better pick.
In this article, I will be comparing the latest two foldables on the block. the Pixel 9 Pro Fold and the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and testing which is the better foldable phone that you should buy. We have compared them in terms of design, display, software, performance, cameras and battery life to test out which is the better phone overall.

If you're trying to look for a good reliable compact phone under $800, the Galaxy S24 beats the Pixel 9 to emerge victorious. From a better LTPO-backed display to way more power with the Exynos 2400 and even slightly better cameras, the Galaxy S24 has got you covered on all fronts. It's a much more versatile device than the Pixel 9, thereby making it an easy suggestion. The only things that the Pixel 9 has going for it are a refreshing new design and those cool new AI features.
The Pixel 9 is easily one of the best Pixels we have received. However, when you start looking at the big problems that Pixels have been infested with, it just feels like a phone that's the best of the worst. The slightly improved connectivity, better design and slew of AI features are just not enough to overlook the miserly upgrade in performance and underwhelming cameras. For more details, read our in-depth review here!
Switching to Pixel 9? Here’s How to Copy Data from your Old Phone After Setup
Anshuman Jain
View quick summary
In this guide, we have discussed the new "Back up or copy data" option in the Pixel 9 devices which for the first time let you transfer files and copy data from an old phone after you have set up the device. We take a good look inside what the feature has to offer and talk about what other new additions it includes.
The latest Google Pixel 9 series of phones have arrived with a new Add Me feature that uses on-device AI to add you to group photos efficiently. If you don't have a tripod or are too shy to ask a stranger to capture the photo, this can work wonders. To use the feature, head over to the native Pixel camera app -> tap on Add Me from the bottom panel -> capture a group photo without you in the frame and keep an empty space to fit yourself in -> have the second shot captured with just you in the frame filling that empty space. And, just like that, AI stitches the two pictures together to add you into those group photos.
If you are looking for a suitable alternative to Phone Link with rich features, check out Motorola's Smart Connect app. It's designed for Motorola and Lenovo phones, but it works great on other Android devices as well. You get phone mirroring, fast file transfer, the phone webcam feature, a cross-syncing smart clipboard, and more.

The CPU on the Google Tensor G4 didn't perform well in our Geekbench test. In fact, in multi-core tasks, the Tensor G4 remained behind last year's Tensor G3. That said, in the AnTuTu benchmark, the Tensor G4 performed slightly better. To find all the benchmark numbers, go through our detailed article.
Google has launched the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, the successor to the Pixel Fold, and it comes with the Tensor G4 SoC, a new design, thinner bezels in the inner display, and a few new cameras. The phone starts at $1,899 for the 256 GB UFS 4.0 variant and goes till $2000 for the 512 GB variant.
I Tried the New Pixel Weather App, and It’s a Breath of Fresh Air
Sagnik Das Gupta
View quick summary
The new Pixel 9 Weather app strikes the perfect blend of minimalism and functionality. So, while it may not be the more aesthetic weather app in comparison to its predecessor, it's the more useful one. The big and bold font, interchangeable weather panels and a super easy way to search and save locations make it one hell of an app that I'm really looking forward to using on the upcoming Pixel 9.
The Nothing Phone 2a Plus is just a glorified Phone 2a, with a couple of upgrades that just don't hit the spot. The slightly better processor and design changes don't make it the upgrade that we have been eagerly waiting for. Since the competition offers a better display, bigger battery with faster charging and significantly better performance at that price segment, it makes the Phone 2a Plus lose out to those very phones as well.

OnePlus Nord 4 vs Motorola Edge 50 Pro: Mid-Range Battle Winner?
Sagnik Das Gupta
View quick summary
If you're in the market for a smartphone under Rs 30,000, the Nord 4 is definitely the practical choice. From a better display to a significantly superior processor, it's a very versatile device. However, if you're looking for a cleaner software experience and slightly better cameras, Moto Edge 50 Pro is the way to go. Both are good phones, aimed at two different userbases.
I switched to a Pixel Watch 2 from a Galaxy Watch4, and I regret it because the Fitbit app is inferior, the watch lacks essential features, a practical form factor, and competitors like Samsung and OnePlus are making better Wear OS smartwatches. One of the other reasons why I dislike the Pixel Watch is due to its extreme ecosystem lock-in.

HMD Global is set to soon launch its first smartphone in India after deciding to launch mobile devices under its own brand name. The smartphone in question is going to arrive with the moniker of HMD Arrow. Leaks suggest that it will be a rebrand of HMD Pulse, which launched in Europe last month. The device comes with entry-level specs like a 6.5-inch HD+ LCD display, a 13 MP-led dual rear camera setup, and the Unisoc T606 SoC. From the looks of it, the brand is repeating its mistakes and launching a 4G underpowered phone in a market of commendable 5G options.
Pixel 8a: Why is Google So Tone-Deaf on Pixel Pricing in India?

Google has announced the Pixel 8a in India at Rs 52,000, and it proves that with each passing year, Google distances itself from understanding the Indian smartphone scene. The steep price increase makes us believe that Google still doesn't understand the Indian market.
