    Google Pixel 3 / 3 XL 2018

    I have a suggestion for their over the top premium phone: three or more cameras on the back side, each with different focal lengthes and features. Their image processing is good enough to handle a zoom lens. Let one of those cameras be equivalent to a 85mm or longer zoom lens when measured in...

    SD 820 Phones in 2016

    The phone can double-up the pixels when it's in power savings mode so that the graphics core won't need to work so hard. 4K's 3840 pixels × 2160 lines becomes 192 pixels × 1080 lines when one pixel generated by the graphics core is sent to four pixels on the display.

    If the above really is true, then I'll stay on T- Mobile and cancel my Fi and 6P order before it is too late. Posted via the Android Central App

    T-Mobile's Voice over Wi-Fi and Voice over LTE possible with Nexus 6P on Project Fi ?

    Imagine this scenario: I have a phone bought from a T-Mobile retail store that supports both those features. I consider them very valuable features that makes me want to stay with T-Mobile. I switch to Project Fi with a Nexus 6P. I may find that both those features are gone, regardless of which...

    I have a Moto X Pure Edition, you have questions. Lets play!

    My order placed two days ago was cancelled this morning. I did an online chat with them, as that is what I am supposed to do, and they referred me to the "cancelled order department" since they can't figure out the reason for the cancellation. My credit card had a hold for that amount put on, so...

    From OnLeaks, Get Excited

    Is it possible that the Huawei Nexus 6 will use their own chip from HiSilicon instead of Qualcomm's Snapdragon? If it's "just" the Snapdragon 810, then I'll pass, and hold out for the 820 coming out next summer, which will translate to a late September 2016 Nexus device.

    using navigation on a custom map

    I want to create my own route and let Google maps navigate it for me with voice. Initially, I tried using the walking method instead of the cycling method, and thought that this will still do voice navigation. But it won't. I like the route presented by the walking method better. So if I...

    Can someone recommend a good Qi Wireless Car Charger?

    Or upgrade to a Sony Ultra Z Google Play edition with magnetic dock charger. EBay is full of knock off charger designs for this phone, including those that has the magnetic attachment but not the dock so you can use it as a substitution for a charging wire.

    Charging port problems...

    Your pictures are not showing up. A dock for the 2013 Nexus 7? I thought the dock only fits the 2012 model.

    Charging port problems...

    I just got mine from Newegg and agree with you that it is an essential accessory. But what about the newer edition of the Nexus 7? Does that have its own dock too? I can't seem to find a dock for the 2013 model of the Nexus 7.

    Charging port problems...

    Where and what are the pogo pins? I thought the Nexus 7 can only be charged via the USB.

    Hacking the charger

    Has anyone found documentation on how the phone exchanges info with the charger? If I just do the usual procedure of shorting data- with data+ and leaving ID unconnected, the phone won't charge at the maximum rate. I connected the five pin USB cable to a break out box and discovered that there...
