Google Search is testing a way to point you toward shorter articles
Google has a knack for keeping its search results helpful and up to date, and while that's exactly why we turn to it as often as we do, how often do you find yourself looking up what should be a simple question, but find yourself sucked down the rabbit hole, clicking link after link as you chase down more info? With as easy as it is to get caught up with longer, more detailed results than we have time for, Google is now testing a new label to help you identify shorter reading material.

Android 14's first beta should arrive in April
It seems like only yesterday that Android 13's first developer preview arrived online. Now that we've had a couple of weeks with a stable build, it's time to start looking forward to what's coming next from Google. While we've known that Android 13's beta program would continue for some time now, we're finally getting some specifics on what this program will entail — along with a hint on when Android 14 might be ready for testers.

YouTube Music realizes it doesn't need your precise location, after all
Of all your personal data that you strive to keep private, your physical location is one particularly vulnerable piece of information, but also one where there are some good reasons why certain apps need to have it. With this in mind, Android allows you to limit access to your location on a per-app basis when you run software for the first time. YouTube Music has been using precise location data to generate recommendations, but apparently it's had a change of heart about needing that level of detail, and going forward your approximate location will suffice.

Will Twitter's pivot to podcasts get more people to use it?
Twitter's strategy with adding new features has pretty much consisted of shoving stuff up the noses of users and seeing what sticks. And to Twitter's credit, it occasionally works. Spaces has been pretty successful on its own and it has stayed relevant despite a dip in popularity of Clubhouse, the app it borrowed its main concept from. The app is venturing further into the audio space by adding a new podcasts feature to Spaces. It's not a bad idea in itself — after all, making a good new thing better should be one of the company's biggest priorities right now. We're normally less than confident on Twitter's additions after flubs like NFT profile pictures and Fleets. But if executed right, Twitter just may be able to earn some new stripes and gain some real popularity — perhaps surpassing Snapchat and coming up to the likes of Facebook.

Google finally updates Search and Maps with more specific abortion provider labels
Even before the Supreme Court announced the overturning of Roe v. Wade on June 24, the writing was pretty much on the wall courtesy of that leaked draft opinion in early May. But it was also around the time when lawmakers asked tech giants to provide better access to abortion resources. Google in particular was accused of leading women astray by including results for crisis pregnancy centers (often run by anti-abortion groups) in searches for abortion clinics. The company is now committing to transparency by adding labels to health organizations when people seek abortions through Google Search or Maps.

Netflix reportedly has launch plans for its ad-supported tier
Streaming's salad days may be behind it. The market seems to have reached its saturation point in North America and many customers are more than happy to subscribe for a limited run of content they want to watch before unsubscribing. Netflix, which has poured billions into original productions and acquisitions, has been hiking prices for its subscription tiers and is hoping an excursion in cloud gaming could help augment its revenues. It's also been toying over whether an ad-supported tier could keep more people hooked in at a lower price. Now, we're learning just how much the company may be willing to charge for that tier and when.
BeReal's popularity is exploding, but will it survive its Instagram clone?
Social media trends come and go like the weather. Remember when Snapchat was the biggest thing around? And what about that short period when Yik Yak was on everyone's phones? TikTok might be basking in the glory now, but a new app, BeReal, is set to steal its spotlight. Ironically, it's partly thanks to TikTok users sharing their thoughts on BeReal that the app has exploded so quickly. When we last examined BeReal a month ago, it was sitting pretty at #1 on the App Store, and it's gone from 11th to 7th on the Play Store. However, it's now caught the eye of Facebook owner Meta, which may spell doom for the app.

Digital Wellbeing may be the reason your third-party launcher doesn't stick
For years, personalization on Android has been aided by the best Android launchers, such as Nova Launcher, Lawnchair, and Action Launcher. Although their visual design and functionality vary, you can set all of these Android launchers as your default, replacing your device's stock launcher. It's usually smooth sailing thereafter, but several people have complained that their devices are reverting the default launcher choice, making it a pain to get to their home screen, where a recent update to the Digital Wellbeing app appears to be the culprit.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro review: All-star battery, minor league fitness tracker
Samsung attempted to appeal to a wide audience of potential buyers with last year’s Galaxy Watch 4 Classic. Whether you wanted a large watch strapped to your wrist or felt unwilling to let the rotating bezel die, there was something there for you. With the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 Pro, Samsung is attempting to sway a much narrower market: fitness freaks. The sort of buyer who springs for a Garmin watch over the latest from Fossil or Mobvoi, who finds the best of Fitbit just a little too casual.

So far, the game has undergone two closed beta tests, while a third is expected to be on its way. There's no release window so far, but we've gone hands-on at Gamescom 2022 for an early look at the current mobile version of Honkai: Star Rail.

CoverScreen OS is ready to seriously upgrade the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4
Samsung delivered a major upgrade to the cover screen on the Galaxy Flip 3, making it far larger (and more useful) than the limited display we got on the prior generation. With this year's new Galaxy Z Flip 4, Samsung's keeping that size the same, and while One UI has improved over the past year, the Flip 4's cover screen is still pretty limited in what it can do. If you’re looking to get a little more usability out of this 1.9-inch screen, CoverScreen OS is here to help, now extending support to the Z Flip 4.

That includes the sequel to 2021’s Galaxy Buds Pro, the $230 Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. They’re great earbuds, but if you’ve got the last generation, you’re already enjoying most of what’s good here.

Folding the OnePlus 10T goes just about as tragically as it did for the 10 Pro
The OnePlus 10T just debuted a couple weeks back, and from a design approach, this hardware borrows more than a little direction from the OnePlus 10 Pro. In a lot of respects, that's a good choice, but it also left us wondering if some of the 10 Pro's shortcomings might be addressed — like the disappointing results we saw when Zack Nelson of JerryRigEverything ran the phone through his durability tests. Now he's putting the OnePlus 10T through some of those same trials, and, well, let’s just say the phone’s back glass buckled under the weight of our expectations.

With so many to choose from, we've built a list of options worth considering.

This is the year you need to buy a new phone — here's why
Phones are one of the most personal things we own in the digital age, containing all the essential information we need while also letting us stay in touch with our friends and family. They're also a commodity and while smartphone manufacturers would like for customers to upgrade their devices every year, or even semi-annually, there are plenty of us out there who'd like to keep our phones for years at a time. While this is generally good practice, there are some looming downsides to keeping a phone you bought a few years ago past 2022. Yes, we're telling you to upgrade your phone and we've got reasons why.

Android 12 now on one of every eight devices, report says
Fragmentation on Android has always been a problem. With so many devices from so many phone makers, and keeping updates on the shoulders of those phone makers, it's almost inevitable. It's gotten better in recent years, but even today, it's not rare to see Android phones running any version from 12 down to 8. This isn't true for iPhones as a majority of them are running iOS 15. Still, Android is running its own race and, according to the latest numbers, Android 12 is making decent progress.

Instead Apple uses a data-based protocol that grants iMessage users access to a host of advanced features like media sharing, message reactions, status updates, and read receipts. Of course, all these features can only do so much to convey emotion and meaning.

But for all they do well, one place where Echo Show models lose out to other smart displays is with the simple ability to act as a digital photo frame, displaying a basic slideshow. Thankfully, Amazon is finally addressing that oversight — albeit with a slight caveat.

Call it the Galaxy Fold 4: Samsung's 'Z' branding may be gone for good
Samsung is set to reveal the successors to the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3 a week from today. While we've encountered the usual stream of leaks and rumors about the two devices, there has also been speculation about the future of their "Z" branding. Nearer the beginning of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, due to connotations with the aggressor's military, Samsung removed the Z branding from its 2021 foldables in some markets, selling them as Galaxy Fold 3 and the Galaxy Flip 3 in Estonia and Latvia. We're now learning that this may be the company's new foldable branding worldwide, beginning with the Fold 4 and Flip 4.
