The Pixel 10 Pro design has leaked too.

After sharing the first official renders of the Pixel 10 yesterday, today Android Headlines has images of the 10 Pro in a more muted set of colors.

With the 10 boasting a telephoto lens too, the only visible difference between the phones is the Pro-exclusive temperature sensor, the small dot below the flash. That detail gives away that yesterday’s official design reveal by Google is of the Pro too.

<em>The Pixel 10 Pro apparently comes in black, white, gray-blue, and a pale green.</em>
Renders of what Android Headlines reports are official renders of the Google Pixel 10 smartphone.

Samsung’s Galaxy A56 is finally on sale in the US.

It took Samsung four and a half months from announcing the Galaxy A56 to quietly adding it to its US store, though other countries have had the phone since March.

Starting at $499.99, it comes in gray or gray, and is a pretty standard midranger: Exynos 1580 chip, 6.7-inch OLED display, 50-megapixel main camera, and a 5,000mAh battery with 45W wired charging.

Tecno gives us our best look yet at Samsung’s trifold.

The Phantom Ultimate G Fold is only a concept phone, so don’t expect it to ever go on sale, but it’s the most complete trifold we’ve seen yet that folds inward on both sides — the same design we think Samsung is going to use for its upcoming trifold.

Tecno says it’ll show off the G Fold at Mobile World Congress in February 2026, but by then Samsung’s trifold should already be out.

Toying with the OneXSugar Sugar 1 transforming gaming handheld.

Remember when I told you about the Android handheld that’s kinda like a Nintendo Switch that transforms into a Nintendo DS? I got an exclusive early look at a Sugar 1 prototype, running some of my own dual-screen and single-screen Nintendo games on it!

It’s crowdfunding on Indiegogo on Monday, July 21st; we don’t have final pricing yet, but it’ll be north of $600.

Former soldier pleads guilty to hacking and extorting telecom companies.

Cameron John Wagenius, aka kiberphant0m, had already pleaded guilty on two charges for hacking T-Mobile and Verizon, and could face 20 years in prison after pleading guilty Tuesday to additional conspiracy, extortion, and identity theft charges.

Wagenius reportedly sold data stolen from Snowflake cloud storage accounts, including records for 560 million Ticketmaster customers and information from over 150 other companies, and said he’d posted hacked AT&T call logs for Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. Two other men, John Binns and Connor Moucka, have also been indicted in this case.
