Users of Pixel Tablet running Android 14 can now use the new way to search. 9to5Google mentioned that the was only available to those in the Android 15 beta, but now, all Pixel Tablet users should have access. As part of the introduction, Google will also display a notice to users.

Big trade-in deals for Samsung’s new Galaxy phones

Published

Google

Samsung is making it easier and more rewarding for customers to switch to their latest Galaxy phone, the Galaxy S25, with impressive trade-in offers. Even after the pre-order period, Samsung is keeping the trade-in values high and has expanded the list of eligible devices to include the Pixel 9 series.

Previously, you could trade in for top dollar on older Samsung models, but now, the Galaxy S25 series offers even better deals. During pre-orders, Samsung gave up to $900 for certain devices when trading for the Galaxy S25 Ultra, a jump from the $750 offered for the Galaxy S24 Ultra.

Now that the Galaxy S25 series is out in the stores, those high trade-in values are still available on Samsung.com. This is surprising because usually, such offers decrease after the initial launch buzz.

A new addition to the trade-in program is the ability to exchange your Pixel 9 or Pixel 9 Pro for a Galaxy S25. Previously, only up to the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro were accepted. The trade-in value for a Pixel 9 Pro can go up to $650, which is about 65% of its original price, and for the Pixel 9, you can get up to $550, which is just under 70% of its retail price. These values are quite competitive, matching what you might get selling privately, especially since these models were only released in August.

Here’s a quick look at what you can get for trading in different models:

  • Google Pixel 9 Pro: Up to $650 for the Ultra, $400 for the S25+
  • Google Pixel 9: Up to $550 for the Ultra, $300 for the S25+
  • Older Samsung and iPhones: Values range from $100 to $900 depending on the model and the new phone you’re buying.

Remember, these trade-in values are exclusive to Samsung.com, and they might not last forever. Besides the trade-in, Samsung is also offering additional credits and larger storage options for each Galaxy S25 model. The starting price for the new phone is $799. So, if you’re thinking about upgrading, now might be a great time to do so with Samsung’s generous trade-in offers.

Pixel 7 phones keep restarting at bad times

Published

Google Pixel 7 Pro

Do you get annoyed when your phone suddenly decides to restart by itself? Of course, you do! It’s a common irritation, and right now, some Pixel 7 owners are facing this exact problem. Their phones are restarting unexpectedly, and it’s happening at the most inconvenient moments.

Several Pixel 7 users have reported that their devices are rebooting randomly while they’re on a call. This isn’t just happening once; some are experiencing their phones shutting down and restarting every few minutes. Imagine speaking for three minutes, only for your phone to reset, cutting you off in the middle of your conversation.

It’s incredibly frustrating to be interrupted during an important call. What makes it worse is that after these reboots, the call logs disappear, making it tricky to reconnect with the person you were just talking to.

The trouble seems to be linked specifically to Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, and Pixel 7a models running the Android 16 beta version. The issue is associated with the software build BP22.250103.008. Since this is a beta version, bugs like this are not uncommon.

Fortunately, Google is aware of the problem and has marked it as a high-priority issue to tackle. They’ve promised to work on a solution but haven’t given a timeline for when it might be fixed. In their official response to the complaints, Google stated, “We have shared this with our product and engineering team and will update this issue with more information as it becomes available.”

This situation serves as a reminder of the risks involved with using beta software. It’s generally advised not to use beta versions on devices you rely on for daily tasks, as these bugs can really mess up your day. Here’s hoping Google sorts this out quickly so Pixel users can get back to uninterrupted calls.

Google’s New Look: Pixel 9a cases show no camera bar

Published

Pixel 9a

Recent leaks of the design for Google’s upcoming Pixel 9a have shown that the company is making a significant change to its iconic camera bar. The latest images of the official Pixel 9a cases have now confirmed this shift.

According to Android Authority, these case images reveal the design of Google’s next mid-tier phone. The cases maintain the familiar shape and style of the current Pixel 9 lineup, featuring a “G” logo right in the middle and colors that blend well with the rest of the series. Inside, the cases are lined with a soft microfiber material.

The most striking change, however, is the camera cutout. Unlike previous models where the camera bar stretched across the back, the cutout on these cases is positioned on the left side. This layout confirms earlier rumors that the Pixel 9a will not include the camera bar that has become a signature of Google’s phones.

Additionally, this week brought a front-view leak, giving us a peek at the phone’s bezels.

The cases come in four colors: pink, black, purple, and white, which are thought to correspond to the color names “Peony,” “Obsidian,” “Iris,” and “Porcelain” from earlier leaks. Although there’s no official confirmation on these names yet, they fit well with Google’s naming conventions for their products.

This redesign marks a new direction for Google’s mid-range offerings, potentially aiming for a fresh look or perhaps simplifying the manufacturing process. Either way, fans of Google’s design might need some time to adjust to this new aesthetic.
