August 06, 2025
Google I/O 2020 would have taken place on May 12th, butit was cancelled. Despite that, it looks like Google is still pushing forward to release thePixel 4athis month. It may not release on May 12th, but the leaks and rumors are flowing, so we expect to see the new phone fairly soon. We’ve got somenew information in our Google Pixel 4a hubfor you to check out. Better than that, we’ve also seen some alleged leaked images taken by the new phone. If thesePixel 4a imagesare real, we’re pretty excited.
TheDJI Mavic Air 2released this past week. More than just an iterative update, this is a true “Mavic drone,” in design and function. It looks like a typical Mavic drone, and it folds down for transport in the same way. The upgrades are impressive as well. TheMavic Air 2is the first DJI consumer drone rated for 10km, that’s 6.2 miles of range. It’s also equipped with a new 1/2-inch camera, similar to some newer phones with a 48MP sensor that bins down to fantastic 12MP images. It’ll start shipping soonstarting at $799.
You told us: Some of you like tocustomize your phones, but the rest of you just use a default layout. That was an interesting poll.
(We’re a day early, but, May the 4th be with you!)
