Google Pixel 9a Reportedly Costs $499 to Start

Following several leaks that have told most of the early story of the upcoming Google Pixel 9a, a rumored price is now here for the US and it will look familiar. For those who missed all of the previous coverage, we believe the Pixel 9a looks like this, that it is reportedly launching in March, which would be much earlier than we typically see A-series phones, and has specs that would make it a solid option for those needing the Pixel experience with a limited budget. As for the price, a new report suggests it’ll cost $499 here. That price would get you 128GB storage, while another $100 ($599) would get you $256GB. If that’s true, we’re looking at a price increase on the 256GB model – the Pixel 8a 256GB was priced at $559. The story here is that Google will update the design language of the phone to closely match the Pixel 9 series, while tossing in their new Tensor G4 and keeping the price relatively the same. I’m going to bet that it’ll be a phone that anyone on a budget should consider.

iPhone 17 to Feature Electrically Induced Battery Adhesive for Easier Repairs

Apple is set to make a significant leap in device repairability with the iPhone 17 lineup by integrating a new electrically induced adhesive peel technology for battery removal. According to exclusive insights, this innovative approach, previously introduced on the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, will now extend across the entire iPhone 17 series, marking a key shift in Apple’s design philosophy.

iPhone 16e: Next Apple iPhone SE reveals itself in new leaked footage

The next iPhone SE has been pictured again in a new set of leaks. Currently thought of as the iPhone SE 4 or iPhone 16e, it still remains unclear whether the mid-range iPhone will line up with a Dynamic Island or Apple's infamous notch across its 6.1-inch display. Alex Alderson, Published 01/27/2025 Apple iPhone Leaks / Rumors Almost a fortnight has passed since Sonny Dickson shared the first photos of the long-awaited successor to the iPhone SE 3rd Gen (curr. $160.97 - renewed on Amazon). Now, leaker Majin Bu has published another round of photos that show the so-called iPhone SE 4 or iPhone 16e, which show the device in greater detail, which we have embedded below. The same leaker has also uploaded a short video of the same device, albeit still in dummy form. Nonetheless, the overall design shown should represent what companies are working against when designing third-party cases. For instance, the iPhone SE 4 has a single oversized rear-facing camera, which is reputed to be a ...
