The HTC Rezound is now available on Verizon Wireless. The big draw of the Rezound is its heavy Beats by Dr. Dre integration and its 4G LTE connectivity. We got a chance to check out the device when HTC unveiled it on Nov. 3 and found it to be another strong entry into Verizon’s library of LTE phones. It’s the third of four known dual-core 4G LTE devices coming to the carrier this year. The Droid Bionic and Droid Razr are already out and the Samsung Galaxy Nexus is coming in the next couple weeks, from what we hear. 

We’ve included some links to our hands-on impressions and videos of the device in action below, but here are some specs. The handset has a 4.3-inch screen with a 720p display, a 1.5GHz dual-core processor, 1GB of RAM, an 8MP rear camera that can shoot slow motion (HTC has industry leading cameras), and cost $300 with a two-year contract. The Rezound will ship with Android 2.3 (Gingerbread), but HTC has promised an Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) upgrade in the coming months.

But what if we told you that you can probably mirror your entire smartphone or tablet screen right to your TV? This of course means that everything you’re seeing and doing on your mobile device’s screen will show up on your TV. And the best part: You likely won’t even need a wire to pull this trick off.

Your screen mirroring setup and experience will vary based on what kind of phone, tablet, or PC you’re rocking; but there are many parts of the process that are the same from one gadget to the next. Still, we thought it best to put together this article for easy reference.

There’s a big problem with the iPhone’s Photos app
The Apple iPhone 15 Plus's gallery app.

While my primary device these days continues to be my iPhone 15 Pro, I’ve dabbled with plenty of Android phones since I’ve been here at Digital Trends. One of my favorite brands of phone has been the Google Pixel because of its strong suite of photo-editing tools and good camera hardware.

Google first added the Magic Eraser capability with the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, which is a tool I love using. Then, with the Pixel 8 series, Google added the Magic Editor, which uses generative AI to make edits that wouldn’t be possible otherwise. There are also tools like Photo Unblur, which is great for old photographs and enhancing images that were captured with low-quality sensors.
