The Homey Pro Mini is less powerful than the regular Homey Pro, but don't let that deceive you. For most people - especially those just beginning their smart home journey - this has more than enough power and features to make its 50% cheaper price tag over the Pro an absolute steal. Unless you have deep pockets or feel limited by the lowered RAM count, there is no reason to go for the Homey Pro over the Homey Pro Mini.

Samsung has announced an Ultra-branded book-style foldable is coming this summer. The company doesn't give a specific name, but a Galaxy Z Fold Ultra or Galaxy Z Fold 7 Ultra would make sense. Rumors point to a July event for the company's next foldables. Over the years, Samsung's foldable phone launches have been very reliable. We see two phones at each launch: a book-style Galaxy Z Fold and a clamshell-style Galaxy Z Flip. However, it looks like the formula could change in 2025.

When it comes to buying the latest and greatest smartphones, tablets, computers, TVs, and more, Americans have a pretty limited set of options for shopping in a physical retail store. Over the past 15 years, the number of stores focused exclusively on electronics has dwindled. Even Best Buy, the largest physical electronics retailer in the US, is struggling. One retailer, though, is bucking the trend by not only surviving, but thriving.

Ryan Haines / Android AuthorityIn the tenth episode of the fifth season of The Simpsons, Mr. Burns opens a casino and starts to lose his mind, becoming a parody of Howard Hughes’ mental deterioration. At one point, he has a tiny model of a plane that he’s named “Spruce Moose,” and he wants to fly it with Smithers. Of course, Smithers says the plane is only a toy, so they can’t get into it, much less fly it. Mr. Burns, deadly serious, pulls a gun on Smithers and says, “Hop.

Google I/O is the company's biggest event of the year. Even the launch of the Pixel 10 series later in 2025 won't compare in size and scope to I/O. This week, I was lucky enough to attend I/O on the steps of Google's Mountain View headquarters, and it was a total blast. Unfortunately, people who watch the keynote livestream at home don't get to experience what happens after Sundar Pichai exits the stage.

Joe Maring / Android Authority I realize that having three phones on you at all times is a bit overkill for the average person, but I use each one pretty much every day for something, whether it's to snap a photo, grab a screenshot, or act as a hotspot for my other devices. Recently, I took an 11-day cruise through the Canary Islands and the surrounding areas. During this trip, I was very glad I had the OnePlus 13, in particular, with me in my luggage.

On April 10, 2025, Razer announced a new and completely free game-streaming app called PC Remote Play. The app works similarly to the popular Steam Link app: You can stream gameplay from your PC to a secondary device, usually a smartphone. You can do this on the same network as your PC or even from different networks worldwide, assuming the internet speeds are fast enough. In other words, you can play pretty much any PC game you own on your smartphone from anywhere in the world.
