As expected, Google has announced the Pixel Watch 3 as its 2024 flagship smartwatch, and it comes in two different sizes. 2022’s original Pixel Watch was solid but suffered from poor battery life, something that was addressed on the Pixel Watch 2 a year later.

In addition, the recently unveiled Galaxy Watch 7 and Galaxy Watch Ultra set a new standard for Android smartwatches....

In summary Hand-sketched design leaks Looks a lot like the Pixel 10 “Significant improvements” predicted Another leak concerning the Honor 500 smartphone series has given us an early (and somewhat unorthodox) glimpse at its new design.

Windows 11 is a very capable operating system, but its built-in tools for managing screen time are lacking. Within Settings, you’ll only find a simple measure of total screen time and how much each app has depleted battery life. Further controls are available via Microsoft’s Family Safety app, but screen time can only be accessed if you set up a separate child account and device. By contrast, Android and iOS let you set app limits and provide lots of data about your own device by default....

That number is astonishing, but with a secure password manager, the problem can almost entirely be avoided....
