Google’s second foldable phone, the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, has arrived. The good news is its eight-inch inner display is the largest on a folding phone, edging out the OnePlus Open’s 7.8 inches. Of course, it also gets the latest Tensor chip (and more memory). The bad news, if you were hoping for a price drop with this generation, is that the second-gen foldable costs the same $1,799 as its 2023 predecessor.

When a new Intel (or AMD) chip rolls around, it builds new mainboards that can be swapped in to keep your machine on the cutting edge.

The latest Made by Google showcase is in the books and, as expected, we got the formal unveiling of the Pixel 9 lineup.

A bunch of the Engadget crew loves the Playdate, the tiny, quirky portable console with a load of great indie games and a crank on the side. I've long had my eye on it, but never pulled the trigger for one reason or another.

Water exists on Mars, according to a team of geophysicists, and not just as ice on its poles or as vapor in its atmosphere. The scientists have found evidence of liquid water deep in its outer crust, based on their analysis of data provided by NASA's Mars Insight Lander. Specifically, they analyzed four years' worth of ground motions recorded by the lander's seismometer. By looking at seismic velocities, or how fast seismic waves travel on the planet, they were able to determine the materials that the waves moved through. What they found was that Mars' mid-crust has fractured igneous rocks saturated with liquid water.
