Apple was right again: Here’s why a Galaxy Note 10 without a microSD slot isn’t a big deal
Like its predecessors, the Galaxy Note 10 is hardly a well-kept secret. We already have renders based on leaked designs and we know almost everything there is to know about the handset. For example, the phone will feature Sound-on-Display technology, which means the entire screen works as a front speaker, but it won’t have a headphone jack. The top speaker, 3.5mm port, and Bixby buttons aren’t the only things Samsung removed from the phone, though. A brand new Note 10 rumor says the entry-level version of the handset will lack a microSD slot as well. This would be such a massive deal if it were to happen back in August 2015. But the Note 10 is hardly the Note 5, and expandable storage on a high-end Android phone shouldn’t be considered a must-have feature anymore.

This is what 2019’s perfect smartphone design will look like – and it’s not the iPhone 11
The Galaxy S8 and iPhone X brought us the first popular all-screen phones in 2017, but these devices were hardly perfect. The S8 had big top and bottom bezels, and the iPhone X had a wide notch at the top of the display. The iPhone X was then copied by almost every company in the business in the first half of 2018 until smartphone makers started coming up with new designs of their own to increase the size of the screen. We saw all-screen phones with pop-up cameras, slider phones, as well as devices with front and rear displays so a selfie camera wasn’t necessary. Samsung, which stayed away from copying the notch last year, came out with the Infinity-O hole-punch display for the Galaxy S10.
All these designs are stopgap solutions until display makers can make screens that can go transparent to accommodate a camera underneath. And as it turns out, the world’s first perfect all-screen phone is coming a lot sooner than we expected.

No, it’s not just you: Half of the internet is down, including Google, Amazon, and Reddit
What better way to start off the week than by not being able to use virtually any online service or access half of the internet’s most popular sites? That seems to be the case, as DownDetector (and many tweets) suggest that Google, Amazon, Reddit, and Spectrum — just to name a few — are experiencing issues this morning. Those issues appear to have begun around 6 or 7 AM ET, just as the East Coast was starting its day.
Although some of these connection problems appear to be clearing up as of 8:40 AM (for example, Feedly is finally loading for me after being inaccessible since before 8:00 AM), it’s likely going to take some time before everything is running smoothly again. Reports are still going up on DownDetector as of writing.

Fresh Pixel 4 leak gives us another look at Google’s unreleased flagship
Google’s upcoming new Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL are the worst-kept secret in all of tech right now because, well, they’re really not a secret at all anymore. Once a set of Pixel 4 design files was stolen from the factory where Google’s new Pixel phones will be manufactured, renders showing the phone’s new design were posted on the web. Rather than just sit idly by while it’s new smartphone design is tossed around the internet like every other smartphone maker does, Google bizarrely decided to officially reveal the new design for the back of the Pixel 4. You can see Google’s official reveal in the image at the top of this post, and it looks exactly like we thought it would following that early leak.
Of course, just because Google posted an image of the back of its upcoming Pixel 4 doesn’t mean the rumor mill is just going to pack it up and go home. There’s still plenty of information that hasn’t been confirmed and gadget fans won’t be happy until everything is out in the open. We still have a long wait ahead of us before Google’s new Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL hit store shelves this fall, but the leaks will undoubtedly keep flowing between now and then. Case in point: A new set of Pixel 4 renders was posted by an industry insider, and they show the pure Android phone from a few more angles than Google was willing to share with its official teaser.
