If you’re thinking about getting one of Google’s Pixel smartphones, now’s a great time because the latest versions — the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro — are back down to their lowest-ever prices on Amazon. The 128GB Google Pixel 8 is on sale for $549, for a $150 discount on its original price of $699, while the 128GB Google Pixel 8 Pro is available for $799, for savings of $200 on its sticker price of $999. There’s a lot of demand for these devices since they were just released in October 2023, so the price cut means stocks will surely be flying off the shelves. There’s no telling when the offer will expire, so if you’re interested, it’s highly recommended that you proceed with your purchase of either of these phone deals as soon as you can.

The Google Pixel 8 is the baseline model of the brand’s latest series of smartphones, and it’s powered by its latest processor — the Google Tensor G3 that’s paired with 8GB of RAM, which enables cool and efficient performance even when the device is multitasking between several apps. It comes with Android 14 pre-loaded, so you’ll enjoy the operating system’s newest features. The Google Pixel 8 also features a 6.2-inch Actua OLED screen with resolution of 428 pixels per inch, a rear camera setup that includes a 50MP wide and 12MP ultrawide lenses, and a 10.5MP selfie camera at the front.

Apple has raised the price of every iPhone currently sold through its online store in Japan. The increase covers the iPhone 16, iPhone 17e, iPhone 17, iPhone Air, iPhone 17 Pro, and iPhone 17 Pro Max, with prices climbing by as much as 11.3%.

The change arrives only a month after Apple raised Mac and iPad prices worldwide due to the ongoing memory crunch. This increase, however, appears to have more to do with the falling value of the Japanese yen.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8: Everything we know about the upcoming clamshell folding phone
Of the three phones expected to arrive at Galaxy Unpacked, the Flip 8 is shaping up to be the most underwhelming.
Three Galaxy Z Flip 7 models next to each other

The Fold 8 Ultra could get a sharper display, a more powerful chipset, a new camera, and a larger battery. Samsung’s purported wider foldable, the Fold 8, is expected to solve the most common problem with tall-body, narrow cover screens by adopting a new aspect ratio. The Flip 8, on the other hand, could only debut with a new chip, and not a Snapdragon one. 

The Flip 7 wasn’t a bad clamshell by any measure. However, it's been one year, and the memory crisis has already hit the smartphone market hard. In a tricky cost-to-margin situation, the Flip 8 could end up getting a price hike without any major improvements, and that might not sit well with potential buyers.

Google Contacts borrows a handy iPhone trick to make sharing your number easier
google-contacts-app

Google is rolling out a small but useful update to the Contacts app on Android that makes it much easier to find and share your own contact details. Instead of digging through settings or creating a separate contact for yourself, you'll now see a dedicated 'Your Info' card at the very top of your contacts list.

The feature gives you quick access to your phone number, email addresses, and other personal details while also adding a faster way to share them with others. The update is arriving with Google Contacts version 4.83.13.940538822 and is rolling out widely (via 9to5Google).
