Report: Google delays Pixel 10 launch

Google was reportedly planning to launch the Pixel 10 series on the same day it launched the Pixel 9 devices. However, recent rumours claim the August 13 launch is not pushing through. Instead, Google is reportedly planning to introduce its new smartphones on August 20, with preorders expected to start after the event concludes.

The rumoured shipping date for the phone is August 28, which would coincide with in-store availability. Of course, at this point, the rumours are speculation, so take it with a grain of salt.

Report: iPhone 17 to be similarly powered as the iPhone 16

If the rumours are true, you shouldn't expect a big upgrade for the base iPhone 17 model. While Apple is supposedly increasing its screen size to 6.3 inches, compared with 6.1 inches, that might be the most significant change. A new research note by GF Securities said the iPhone 17 will run on the iPhone 16's A18 chip with 8GB of RAM, despite the rest of the series being powered by the A19 processor and 12GB of RAM.

So, unless you're looking for a bigger screen, it probably won't make sense to upgrade to the iPhone 17 if you're coming from an older base model iPhone. But, as GSMArena pointed out, the lack of change might be a strategy to get you to upgrade to the more expensive models.

New supply chain reports are shedding more light on Apple's rumoured all-glass iPhone 19 Pro, expected for the iPhone's 20th anniversary in 2027. Following earlier reports of a curved, notch-less design, ETNews details a "four-sided bending display" from Samsung Display and LG Display, creating a bezel-less look reminiscent of a past Xiaomi concept. This design could also feature an under-display camera. The report also suggests a significant battery upgrade with a solid-state battery and an all-silicon cathode. While exciting, these details remain unconfirmed.
