Latest Pixel 10 renders, Poco F7 gets big update, Week 32 in review
Another week, another Google Pixel 10 series render pack is leaked. At this point, we have a perfect idea of what the 10 and 10 Pro units will look like. The latest renders show the phones in Obsidian Black and Frost - a white-ish with a blue or purple hue.
The Redmi Note 15 Pro 4G got its EEC certification. The 14 series became official in China in September and made its global debut in January; no word yet on when to expect the 15 series to make its debut.
We saw the color options of the Galaxy S25 FE. It will come in Icy Blue, Navy, Jet Black, and White. Not very inspired.
It was developed based on feedback from the community, the brand says.
Their official announcement can't come soon enough.
The 4G-only version isn't dead.
The phone has been leaking quite often lately. Previously, we knew the name of the colors, but hadn't seen them in pictures (not all of them, anyway).
The OnePlus 15 will reportedly drop the circular camera island and go with a rectangle-shaped one in the top left. That would put it in line with the 13T and 13s design. The phone won't have Hasselblad co-branding, and will have a lower-resolution "1.5K" panel. It will still be a LIPO panel. The OnePlus 15 will have a 50 MP main camera, the Snapdragon 8 Elite 2 SoC at the helm, and a 7,000-7,500 mAh battery with support for 100W wired charging.
The Galaxy A17 went on sale ahead of its formal launch across several European retailers. It has a few notable updates over its predecessor - an Exynos 1330 SoC, OIS on its 50MP camera, and a sturdier display. Galaxy A17 comes in Black, Blue, and Gray colors. The 4/128GB trim is listed at €230 in France while the 8/256GB version is currently €309 in Spain.
And one spec downgrade that you may not like.
The latest Galaxy A-series member is listed across several European retailers.
As the name implies, you do have to be a business to purchase one - and there's an extra caveat too.
Apple may very well unveil its iPhone 17 series on September 9.
The Galaxy S26 Ultra will have the same ISOCELL HP2 1/1.3-inch 200MP sensor but with a nicer f/1.4 lens.
It's happening precisely when you'd expect it to based on prior rumors.
But that module is getting a better lens.

Google just handed you control of your news, but there's one thing to watch out for
Search for something that's in the news. Tap the little icon to the right of Top Stories. Search and select your preferred sources. Refresh your results and enjoy more from the sites you like. It is actually pretty easy to set up your preferred sources. | Image credit – Google Once you've picked your sources, you'll see them more often in Top Stories or even in a special 'From your sources' section. You'll still get results from other outlets, and you can change your picks anytime. You can also add as many sources as you want. And if you tried this back when it was in Labs, your old choices will carry over automatically.

If you have one of these Galaxy phones, you can receive six free months of powerful AI tools
Last month, we told you about the free one-year subscription to Google's AI One Pro that Pixel 9 users might not have been fully aware of. The subscription comes with access to Veo 3, which is Google's AI Video generation model. You can say, "Make me a video of a giant baby climbing the Empire State Building," and the model will create a high-quality, high-fidelity video no longer than 8 seconds in length of the subject requested. The promotion not only offers one year of free access to Veo 3, it includes the ability to use Gemini's 2.5 Pro, movie creation tool Flow, Gemini in Workspace apps, and 2TB of storage. You might be wondering what the difference is between Veo 3 and Flow. The former creates the 8-second video clips you ask to see, and the latter strings together these clips to form longer scenes. After the free year expires, you'll be asked to pay the regular price of $19.99 per month. A one-year subscription is $199.99. To take advantage of this offer, download the Google One app from the Play Store by tapping this link. The offer should be presented to you if you have an eligible phone. Now, Samsung is offering a deal to owners of the following Galaxy handsets: If you own one of these handsets, you are entitled to receive six free months of Google AI One Pro. Those with the aforementioned Galaxy handsets will get Gemini 2.5 Pro, Flow, Gemini in Workspace apps, and 2TB of storage. You can redeem the offer by downloading the Google One app from the Play Store, and when you open it using an eligible Galaxy phone, you should be presented with the offer. In an effort to make the foldable Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 seem suitable for multitaskers, Samsung is giving owners of its recently released foldables the following: Two months free of Adobe Lightroom 50% off LumaFusion video editing 30% off Arcsite 30% off Noteshelf In July, Samsung gave away 12-month subscriptions to Perplexity AI Pro to many Galaxy phone and tablet owners. To redeem this offer, if you already have the Perplexity app installed from the Google Play Store, uninstall it. Open the Galaxy Store-not the Google Play Store-and install Perplexity. Complete these tasks on a compatible U.S. Galaxy phone or tablet, and you'll be upgraded to Perplexity Pro for one year. You might receive a confirmation from Perplexity to respond to. I would suggest that anyone with a phone or tablet eligible for any of these freebies take advantage of them. Just remember to jot down the expiration date when your free subscription ends so that you can cancel the service before getting charged.

Perplexity AI wants to buy Chrome from Google for $34.5 billion
Perplexity AI, the startup behind the AI service with the same name, has apparently made an offer to buy Chrome from Google. The amount it's willing to pay? A whopping $34.5 billion, according to a new Reuters report. This isn't the first time Perplexity has made a headline-grabbing offer - back in January, it also said it wanted to buy TikTok's US operations. Obviously, nothing came of that (at least so far). Perplexity hasn't revealed how it plans to fund its acquisition of Chrome, simply stating that multiple funds have offered to finance the deal in full (without naming any names). It has so far raised about $1 billion in funding for its AI chatbot, and that's obviously far from what it's offering here. For the Chrome bid, OpenAI, Yahoo, and private-equity firm Apollo Global Management have also expressed interest so far. All of this stems from regulatory pressure in the US mounting towards Google selling off Chrome so that it has less of a grip on the industry. For its part, Google so far hasn't actually offered up Chrome for sale, and plans to appeal a US court ruling from last year that found it has an unlawful monopoly in online search. The US Justice Department has sought a Chrome sell-off as part of that case's remedies. A federal judge is expected to issue a ruling on remedies in this case sometime this month. Perplexity recently launched its own AI-infused browser, Comet. Its main selling point is being able to perform tasks on your behalf. Obviously, buying Chrome would allow Perplexity to leverage its more than three billion users for its AI services, and that would allow it to better compete with the elephant in the AI room - OpenAI (which, incidentally, is also working on an AI browser of its own). Perplexity promises to keep the underlying Chromium code open source, and invest $3 billion over two years in the browser without making any changes to Chrome's default search engine. The company thinks its acquisition of Chrome would preserve user choice and ease future competition concerns.
