Are you ready to extend your perception of the color brown? That’s exactly what Motorola promises will happen when you lay your eyes on the new color option for the Motorola Razr Plus 2024, now available in the 2025 Pantone Color of the Year. In addition to the Razr Plus 2024, the rich mocha is also available for the Motorola Edge 50 neo in markets where it is available.

“Mocha Mousse reinforces the importance of savoring the moment—a reminder to indulge in life’s simple pleasures. Mocha Mousse also inspired us to create a new soft inlay composed of coffee grounds. Its warm and comforting essence embodied the sensory nature of this shade,” said Ruben Castano, VP of customer experience and design at Motorola.

Maybe some of that is lost on me, but I can’t deny the appeal of this color. The warm hues of the color are almost soothing to look at. It’s a rich, deep brown color that really is quite striking.

Brown isn’t exactly a common color choice for a phone (or anything besides belts and shoes, really). Manufacturers tend to opt for futuristic, neutral tones like silver, black, and white, or they go for bright colors like the Koala Grey, Beach Sand, and Spritz Orange options currently available for the Razr 2024. Apple, Samsung, and the other major players in the market should be willing to experiment with colors a bit more.

You could always protect your phone with a case, but if you’re going to shell out a little extra to try a unique color, make sure the case is clear.

Mocha Mousse will be available for the Razr Plus 2024 soon. If you’re interested, you can register to order it on Motorola’s website.

Pixel 11 just got more expensive, but Google may have found a way to stop the bleeding
Google's big manufacturing shake-up could help Pixel 12 from getting even pricier

Google just pushed the prices higher for the entire Pixel 11 lineup. The hikes weren't surprising at all, especially considering the rising component costs and the ongoing RAMmageddon. But a new report hints that we might soon see a solution to all of this.

According to Nikkei Asia, Google plans to stop producing all Pixel devices in China starting in 2027, shifting manufacturing toward India and Vietnam. The reported move covers Pixel phones, watches, and wireless earbuds as Google continues reducing its reliance on Chinese manufacturing. As always, there's no guarantee Google will pass any resulting savings along to buyers. Though reducing its exposure to China at a time of volatile trade policy and spiralling component costs could give the company more flexibility when it comes time to price future Pixels.

The sideloading workaround Google promised months ago is finally rolling out
Google's making sideloading harder on purpose, but there's still a way in.

Google is finally rolling out the advanced sideloading flow it first teased back in March, giving power users a way to install apps from unverified developers on certified devices without touching ADB.

Back then, Google started asking developers to verify their identity before their apps could land on certified Android devices, no matter if you download them from the Play Store, a third-party store, or sideload them directly. The idea is to tie every app to a real developer ID so scammers can't easily sneak malware onto your phone.

The phone you can actually repair yourself is finally coming to the US
A phone built to be fixed, not replaced, has officially landed stateside.

Most US smartphone buyers gravitate towards popular smartphone brands, including Apple, Samsung, and Google. And while there’s no denying that these companies make exceptional smartphones, they all fall short in the department of repairability. 

Break the display, and you are looking at repair costs of upwards of $300. Want to change the battery? It’s going to cost you at least $100, and even if you are ready to pay, you cannot repair it yourself.
