The Pixel 9 Pro Fold has a much better design than the first-gen version. It’s also significantly thinner than the Pixel Fold and even thinner than the recently launched Galaxy Z Fold 6, one of its main rivals.
The improvements don’t stop there, as the Pixel 9 Pro Fold...

Last year, OnePlus launched the OnePlus Open, the company’s first foldable smartphone. We’ve seen many foldables over the years, but in our review of the phone, it turned out to be a pleasant surprise and quickly became our favorite. However, since then, a lot of foldables have been launched. So the question is, how does the OnePlus Open fare versus newer foldables like Google’s brand new Pixel 9 Pro Fold?

It’s been too long since Apple updated the iPhone selfie camera with a 12MP sensor. Since then, the company’s only improvements were software-related, with Photonic Engine and updates to Smart HDR.

No, pallet shelters for people experiencing homelessness don’t fold into caskets. It’s a question a reader posed one of the first times I wrote about pallet shelters.
