Intel’s new Lakefield processors represent a big step for the chip maker. Like ARM’s big.LITTLE technology, these chips combine two different types of CPU core into a single package, although Intel accomplishes this in a different way thanks to its new Foveros 3D chip stacking technology.

IDC: Google shipped 7.2 million Pixel devices in 2019
Google’s Pixel line of smartphones tend to have great cameras, good software, and… relatively limited appeal, if market share is anything to go by. While Samsung, Apple, Huawei, Xiaomi, and Oppo continue to dominate the smartphone space in terms of shipment volume, Google has yet to crack the top 10 list. But according to IDC […]

At this point it looks like Google’s next-gen, mid-range smartphone may not be unveiled until July, and the latest rumors point to the Pixel 4a not actually shipping until August. Need a new phone right now? The Pixel 3a is still a pretty great option — it has a slower processor, less RAM, and less […]
Daily Deals (1-24-2020)
The Google Pixel 4 may have gotten mixed reviews, but the Pixel 3a has been widely praised for offering a good blend of price and performance — it costs about half as much as a Pixel 4, but has a camera that’s nearly as good and a processor that’s fast enough for most tasks. And […]
Google doubles Pixel sales after launching the Pixel 3a mid-range smartphone
Google’s Pixel smartphones get a lot of attention from the tech press, since they’re first-party hardware from the company that makes the world’s most widely-used smartphone operating system.

How much would you pay for a Google Pixel 3a?
Rumor has it that Google is going to officially unveil the Google Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL on May 7th. And if you believe a random redditor who claims to work at a Verizon Store, they could be available for purchase at around the same time. They’re expected to be cheaper than the flagship […]
Lilbits 363: Tired of Pixel 3a leaks yet?
Rumor has it that Google will officially launch the Google Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL on May 7th, the first day of this year’s Google I/O developer conference.

Signs point to Pixel 3a being cheaper, but not cheap
Google’s Pixel 3 smartphones sell for $799 and up when they’re not on sale for $200 off (like they are right now), which isn’t surprising for a modern flagship phone.

Lilbits 354: What do you call these foldable smartphone designs?
The first foldable smartphones with flexible displays should begin shipping in the next few months. But they won’t all fold the same way. Samsung’s Galaxy Fold closes up like a book, with the screen on the inside, which means the company had to slap a secondary display on the outside that would let you use […]
