Motorola’s flagship phones will soon allow you to install a custom OS that effectively strips out most of Google’s apps and tools. The GrapheneOS Foundation has revealed that its super-secure and mostly Google-free operating system, built on an open source version of Android, is coming to future Motorola phones. At present, it’s only available on […]
Life is expensive enough, so the last thing anyone wants is a massive bill the next time they need to upgrade their smartphone.

For several years, Samsung has made one of the best foldable phones in the larger Fold format, but its smaller Flip has faced stiff competition from Motorola, which impressed with sharper hardware, a smarter design and a better, more flexible system that’s better suited to the format. With the eighth generation of the Galaxy Z […]
Google has seemingly started the rollout of a helpful new Android 17 feature that could help those who suffer from motion sickness.
