DJI starts teasing the Osmo Pocket 4P, confirms its cameras

DJI unveiled the Osmo Pocket 4 last month, but for some reason the company didn't also launch the much-rumored Pro version at the same time. The Osmo Pocket 4P (DJI really hates the word "Pro" these days) is still coming, however. And it will be launching internationally very soon. That's obvious from the fact that DJI has now published a teaser video for the Osmo Pocket 4P on its global YouTube channel. Not only does this show us the device from a few angles, it also confirms its much-rumored key selling point: the addition of a second camera. And that one is, as you may have...

Google Chrome finally supports sharing your approximate location with websites

Google's Chrome web browser on Android now finally supports approximate location sharing. So now you can set it so that it only gets an approximate location from your device to send to whatever website wants it. Previously, Chrome always wanted access to your precise location, which is overkill for most websites. You can still use your precise location when you need to, by the way, that's not going away. Google is planning to release a new API for web developers that lets them request your approximate location directly, or specify if they need your precise location. Source

The FCC wants carriers to put more effort into preventing spam calls - or get punished

Back in 2016, Google updated Android’s phone app to warn users about spam calls. We have seen various iterations of this and other similar features, but the problem still persists. Now the FCC wants to attack the root of the issue by strengthening the existing “Know-Your-Customer” (KYC) rules. The FCC is asking for comments on more stringent verification for new and renewing customers. This may include requiring that customers provide their name, address, a government ID and alternative phone numbers. Additionally, the Commission is looking for feedback on how to punish carriers who...

Back at MWC Barcelona, Lenovo unveiled several new tablets, including the gamer-focused Legion Tab Gen 5, aka Legion Y700 Gen 5 in China.

Samsung starts selling the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE in the US again

Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE last summer alongside the Galaxy Z Flip7, and the FE model was offered in the US for a while, until mid-December when Samsung stopped selling it.

You can grab one from the Korean company's online store for $899. That amount nets you the device with 128GB of storage. The problem with that pricing is that the same version of the device can currently be had at Amazon for just $589.90. Check our...

OnePlus Nord Buds 4 Pro review

The Nord Buds 4 Pro is yet another pair of wireless earbuds in OnePlus’s growing and confusing lineup. These are the most premium earbuds in the company’s low-end lineup, but below the non-Pro numbered lineup and Pro numbered lineup, and also the non-numbered Pro lineup…. Anyway, it’s best not to get too much into the weeds with this, as at this point it’s doubtful if even people at OnePlus can keep track of these. The Nord Buds 4 Pro are still aimed at being an affordable pair of wireless earbuds, but with many of the niceties that you now expect in more premium earbuds, such as...
