upcoming OnePlus device, rumored to have a massive 7800mAh battery (per Wccftech).
and it would absolutely smoke the 5,000 and 4,685mAH batteries in the Galaxy S25 Ultra and iPhone 16 Pro Max.

Instead, Apple and Samsung seem to be prioritizing thinness at all costs, for reasons that aren't entirely clear beyond aesthetics and bragging rights. It's been years since I've heard anyone complain about how thick a phone is, if not a decade or more. Complaints have trended in the opposite direction, I'd say -- without a case, some phones can be so thin and slippery that they're hard to grip securely. Even my wife's OnePlus 9 5G has that issue. A few foldables, like Google's Pixel 9 Pro Fold , are so thin when open that they feel like they might bend or snap.

Gboard is getting visibly worse almost on a daily basis, especially autocorrecting perfectly legitimate words, presumably based on dubious analysis of other people's writing. So what's worth trying? The ability to swipe type is a big plus

I was a heavy voice user of the old Google Assistant, as well as Google Home/Nest speakers, and have really grown to hate its Gemini based replacement on my phone. So often it screws up with basic commands that were intuitive and reliable on the old Assistant. It's also slower and feels like a waste of resources to query an LLM for simple device and smart home commands

TL;DR

• Google announced Intrusion Logging, a new Android 16 feature to help high-risk users detect if their device has been compromised by hackers.
• It securely backs up encrypted activity logs (like network info and app installs) to the cloud, accessible only to the user for forensic analysis.
• The feature uses the new Intrusion Detection API, isn’t enabled by default, and requires activating Advanced Protection mode to use.

BeReal is not good (most appropriate way i could say this). It is a Privacy nightmare. Just think about it, a bunch of random strangers are getting access to every single day what you and your family are doing. I know nobody is concerned about privacy anymore. Seems like we have lost that but still Also BeReal has a bunch of Ads. And since the inclusion of Ads bereal has quickly lost in popularity. If you are searching for a Alternative, you should try out DD-DigitalDiary It doesn't have a lot of the features like social sharing. It is basically a journaling application. But still could be a good alternative. Also there was another app Minutaie which first started this trend so i suggest you should also check it out

I like'em big, I like'em chunky I like'em big, I like'em plumpy I like'em round with somethin', somethin'...
