What you need to know A 24GB Snapdragon 8 Elite Nubia Z70 Ultra was rebuilt inside a custom acrylic case and sandwiched between two full-size CPU coolers. The oversized setup helps prevent thermal throttling, delivering 99% stability across 20 3DMark Wild Life Extreme loops. Termux with GPU acceleration lets the phone power an XFCE Linux desktop with an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse. The phone reportedly manages around 20–30fps, with the GPU reaching roughly 99% utilization. Most smartphones hit a thermal ceiling the second you push them beyond casual mobile gaming. But someone took that limitation as a personal challenge and stripped down a Nubia Z70 Ultra , literally sandwiching it between two full-size PC CPU coolers inside a custom acrylic housing. The outcome is a franken-rig smartphone that doubles as a surprisingly viable desktop replacement. The project, shared by Reddit user ntso...

Google launched its brand-new Pixel 11 series and Pixel Watch 5 yesterday at 10 am, and then, eight hours later, re-announced the entire series in an awkward, 1.5-hour-long online presentation hosted by comedic sensation Trevor Noah. The show was broadcast on YouTube, and at one point only 57,000 people were watching, but I think it did go up to 80,000. Comments were also turned off, and I’m not surprised why. There were only two really amazing parts of the show: the first was when Joël Yawili, a Senior Product Manager for the Gemini app, appeared on the show, and the second was when the company announced a new accessibility feature called Sign-to-Text , which I’ll get to later. I want to first focus on the show. There were some compelling moments when I thought it could have worked, but overall, I think what Google was trying to do wasn’t executed the way the company wanted. Trevor Noah vs. Go...

The largest, fastest charging, and most long-lasting of the Pixel 11 series , the Pixel 11 Pro XL offers generous screen real estate with its 6.8-inch Super Actua OLED display.

What you need to know The Pixel Buds Pro 2 now actively adjust noise cancellation in real time to counteract subtle shifts or seal slips during movement. Audio settings like EQ adjustments (such as boosting bass) can now be toggled on demand using simple voice commands. Tapping an earbud activates near real-time listening for over 70 languages, while your connected Pixel phone can broadcast your spoken response back in the target language. Google’s new earbuds are leaving hardware updates behind in favor of smarter software tricks. The Pixel Buds Pro 2 and Pixel Buds 2a, which debuted today alongside the Pixel 11 series , are receiving a set of hands-free features to make the earbuds much more adaptable for daily use starting this fall. The big upgrade is Dynamic ANC, which addresses a surprisingly common issue with earbuds: your fit can change while you’re wearing them. The first-generation Pixe...

So, you need a pair of ANC earbuds. Recommendations usually start with the pairs that match your smartphone: AirPods, Pixel Buds, Galaxy Buds, OnePlus Buds, or Moto Buds. If you opt for a pair of ANC earbuds from a trusted audio brand instead, you're likely choosing between Sony and Bose. I've used both the Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds and the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (Gen 2) for months, and they're the best of the best when it comes to active noise-cancellation power. But there can only be one best . So, I decided to take the flagship Sony and Bose earbuds to three noisy places to see how each one cancels out unwanted sound. This isn't a lab test or a benchmark — it's a real-world showdown that reflects how the Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds and the Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (Gen 2) perform in everyday scenarios. While it was close, there was one pair of ANC earbuds I cons...
