Doesn't make a hill of beans difference to me. Used Google on my Pixels, Edge on my Windows PC, Safari on my iThings. I have others loaded various places, but generally just use what is default for the platform. For what I do, look up stuff, it's six of one half dozen of the other, which seems...

Everybody seems to be focused on Apple saving money, or conversely, being flush enough they can throw in a charger. The reality is that there are just tons of chargers out there in peoples hands. We don't need to produce one for every device. I have two shoeboxes full of these things, beyond...

Every seen polycarbonate phones? The Nokia Lumia Windows phones were easy to hold, nearly indestructable, good looking (IMHO), and had wireless charging.

Been using wireless charging for a long time. Ever since Windows Phones (Lumias). Never saw any more degradation than with 'normal' charging. The reality is the charging mechanism is no different, something provides power to the charging circuitry which in turn charges the battery. In the wired...

Anyone found a recording of the livestream? Missed it and would like to watch it. Usually those things turn up on YouTube fairly quickly.

I think a non generic treat has only happened with Kit Kat before. I always assumed they collaborated on that. I sort of figured, if I were Nestle, I'd love the free advertising. It's not like anyone is going to confuse Kit Kat the OS with Kit Kat the candy, so it just increases name...
