Google Pixel 10 launch on August 10: Full specs and features revealed
Google is set to launch its Pixel 10 series in just two months, with detailed specifications of the device now available online. Reports suggest that while the Pixel 10 will gain some features, it may also miss out on others seen in previous models. The upcoming phone will carry several design and hardware elements from its predecessor, the Pixel 9, but it will introduce upgrades in key areas such as battery capacity, processing power, and charging speeds.

According to the Android Headlines report, the Pixel 10 will keep the 6.3-inch Full HD+ display with a 120Hz refresh rate found on the Pixel 9. The screen will still use Corning's Gorilla Glass Victus 2 for protection. However, the brightness will see an increase, with the high brightness mode rising from 1800 nits to 2000 nits and peak brightness going from 2700 nits to 3000 nits.

Android 16 will warn if you are connected to a fake ‘Stingray' cell tower
From banking details to pictures of friends and family, smartphones are a treasure trove of personal information. And while you can take all the precautionary measures to keep sensitive data safe, some attacks are very hard to protect against. One of these is the infamous stingray attack, which intercepts all your phone calls and SMSes. Often used by surveillance agencies around the world, the attack works by tricking your smartphone into connecting to a fake cell tower. However, a new feature coming with Android 16 might be able to warn you if you are being snooped on. With Android 16, Google is reintroducing the 'mobile network security' settings page as part of the Safety Center, which can be accessed by heading over to the Security & privacy tab in the Settings app. Here, you will see two subsections – 'Notifications', which features a toggle named 'Network notifications', enabling which will allow Android to warn if your phone connects to any unencrypted network or when it asks about your phone's unique identifiers. However, this toggle is disabled by default. When enabled, Android will display a message in the notification panel as well as the Safety Center whenever your phone switches from an encrypted to an unencrypted network or vice versa. The second subsection – called '2G network protection' is a toggle that lets you disable or enable the phone's 2G connectivity. It is also disabled by default. One thing to note here is that the feature might only be available with devices that come with Android 16 out of the box, as these devices will support Android's Radio HAL 3.0 drivers. However, the 'Mobile network security' page will only be visible when your device supports both of these features, which is why it is missing from any of the current Pixel devices running Android 16. But a Google policy that allows smartphone manufacturers to decide the hardware requirements at launch might mean that we won't be seeing the feature on any of the current devices. Also, this isn't the first time Google has tried to block Stingray attacks. On Android 15, the operating system will warn users when a network asks for a device's unique identifiers, like the IMEI number. A few years ago, when the tech giant rolled out Android 12, it added an option that allowed users to disable 2G connectivity.
