Google is quietly saying goodbye to one of Android’s most familiar mini-apps. The company is phasing out the long-standing Google Weather experience and replacing it with a redesigned weather interface inside Google Search, as reported by 9to5Google. If you have ever tapped the sun-and-cloud shortcut on your home screen to quickly check the forecast, you have already used what many consider Android’s default weather app. Despite feeling like a standalone app, it was actually a full-screen weather experience built into the Google app. However, that shortcut is now being redirected to a new Search-based weather page, and the change appears…

Tesla has made a bold pricing move on its long-anticipated Cybertruck, offering one of its more affordable trims at a price that finally starts to feel within reach for a broader range of buyers. For a limited time, the dual-motor all-wheel-drive Cybertruck is listed at $59,990 in the U.S. – the lowest price yet for the futuristic electric pickup and a significant shift from the vehicle’s previously high price tags. The discounted price, which CEO Elon Musk says will only be available for 10 days, represents a rare opportunity for prospective buyers who have been turned off by the Cybertruck’s…

On today’s episode of You Asked, we cover what to do about an 83-inch TV that’s too bright, whether it’s time to upgrade a 10-year-old TV, and whether a calibration can extend the life of your OLED. Is an 83-inch TV too bright? @msbgone asks: I went with an 83-inch TV, and it’s so bright that at times I have to close my eyes. I love the size, but man, being so bright is not always great, and I do not have it at max brightness. Also, when there are shows with flashing, wow, it can be a hard watch.…

Apple has usually played it safe with the color options on its flagship iPhones. Aside from the usual silver, white, gold, and black, the company barely ever goes bold. That changed with the iPhone 18 Pro, which landed in an eye-catching Cosmic Orange color, and it proved to be quite popular. Apple is looking to replicate that success with the iPhone 18 Pro later this year, according to Bloomberg, and its next bet could be a shade of red. What’s the big shift? “Given the success of orange, I wouldn’t be surprised if the company keeps that option around and…

If you’re wondering what happened to the Starship, then rest assured, SpaceX engineers are still working to get it airborne again soon. In fact, in a post on X on Saturday, SpaceX chief Elon Musk confirmed an earlier stated target window for the 12th launch of the most powerful rocket: next month. In that case, the Starship could be blasting off from SpaceX’s Starbase site in near Boca Chica, Texas, in a matter of weeks, treating onlookers and those watching online to a spectacular display of raw rocket power. The 12th Starship flight is particularly special because it involves a…

Small-form-factor PC builds are awesome when they’re done right, but they can get expensive fast. Between DDR5 memory, SSD pricing, and GPU costs that still feel higher than most people want, the budget can disappear before you even finish the parts list. That’s why this clearance deal stands out. The GIGABYTE B850I AORUS PRO WIFI7 is down to $124.99, which is a huge drop from the $309.99 comp value. That’s $185 off, and for an AM5 mini-ITX board with Wi-Fi 7 support, it’s the kind of discount that can meaningfully shift your build math. Instead of blowing your budget on…

Intel’s long-term desktop roadmap may be moving faster than expected. New leaks suggest the company is already preparing its Nova Lake-S Core Ultra Series 4 processors, with a possible launch window shifting closer than earlier rumors indicated. According to reliable leaksters HXL and Golden Pig Upgrade, Intel’s next major desktop CPU family could arrive around CES 2027, potentially landing sooner than previous roadmaps suggested. That would position Nova Lake as Intel’s next big step after the current Arrow Lake and Panther Lake generations. Nova Lake is expected to represent a significant architectural jump. The chips are rumored to use Intel’s…

Google has officially unveiled the Pixel 10a, its newest entry in the A-series lineup. On the surface, it looks like another compelling budget-friendly Pixel: minimalist design, fresh colours, a large battery, and Google’s well-known AI features. But dig a little deeper, and the excitement quickly fades. For many buyers, the Pixel 10a may feel like a déjà vu moment – a phone that looks new but behaves very much like last year’s Pixel 9a. In fact, the similarities run so deep that a growing number of users and reviewers are asking the same question: Why upgrade at all? Despite its…
