The FBI hacked phones with custom software and a hidden messaging app called Anom. It then sold these phones to criminals. However, the Anom app wasn’t encrypted or secure, and the FBI listened in on criminal chats for years. Now, these hacked phones — which appear to be mostly Pixel 4a and Pixel 3a devices — are appearing for sale on aftermarket sites. Last month, a story broke about a Federal Bureau of Investigation operation that resulted in hundreds of arrests.
It’s a bit of a pain for smartphone owners to quickly take a screenshot of their current display to share with others. The default method of pressing the volume down button and the power button at the same time can be hit and miss. Now, a new feature has been added to Google Assistant that allows the virtual companion to be a very simply way to make a quick screenshot of your phone.

A ZTE executive has bemoaned the lack of telephoto or periscope cameras on some flagship phones. The executive claimed that these cameras can be more expensive than main cameras. Telephoto and periscope zoom cameras are among the most useful secondary cameras around, allowing you to get more detailed zoomed shots without physically moving closer to a subject. Unfortunately, we’ve seen a trend in recent years for some flagship phones to skip a zoom-focused camera, such as the Google Pixel 6, iPhone 13, and OnePlus 9.
Xiaomi has a ton of new budget Redmi Note phones in its portfolio, ranging from the China-only Redmi Note 11 series to the global Note 11 family, and the Redmi Note 11T. Now, the company has launched even more devices, dubbed the Redmi Note 11T Pro and Pro Plus.
The two phones share a ton in common, starting with a high-powered Dimensity 8100 chipset. Mediatek previously said this SoC specifically takes aim at the Snapdragon 870 and 888 and should deliver performance that’s more in line with the latter.
For the first time, Samsung has decided to launch two distinct models that share the Note 10 moniker: the Galaxy Note 10 and the Galaxy Note 10 Plus. With any new release, it’s natural to be curious about how it stacks up against the competition. In this quick specs comparison, we take a closer look at the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus vs Huawei P30 Pro!
Let’s start with the new Galaxy Notes.
Samsung’s new Galaxy S7 Edge may not have an entirely new design but the company has made some changes to the color choices available, and the finish on the front and rear of the handset. With three colors to choose from, which color should you buy and which color stands out the most?
The Galaxy S7 Edge will be available in three colors: Black Onyx, Gold Platinum and Silver Titanium. One of the biggest changes versus the Galaxy S6 Edge last year is that Samsung has dropped the more gaudy Emerald Green color in favor of a more traditional line up, but as we’ve seen in previous years, the company does have form for launching additional colors of popular handsets at a later date.
Samsung produces the most successful line of Android devices in the world. For their tablets, they have taken a novel approach by creating a variety of choices 7-inch, 8.9-inch, 10.1-inch and, now, 7.7-inch tablet. Most of these tablets posses enough differentiating factors to make them stand out, and the Galaxy Tab 7.7 is a prime example of that with a display that blows any competing tablet out of the water.

It’s common to use audio to sleep. Whether it’s listening to music, meditation, podcasts, or audiobooks, many prefer to drown everything out. The Bedphones — the world’s smallest on-ear headphones — are designed for exactly that.
The wireless Bedphones truly shine for people who sleep next to a snoring partner, a rumbling train track, or a loud roommate. The earpieces are designed to mask ambient sounds, so you won’t disturb the world and it won’t disturb you.
