The New Pixel 4 Real-Time Transcription App Is Amazing—What to Use If You Can't Get It

Among the new features onboard the Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL phones is a Recorder app that can transcribe spoken audio in real-time—a tool that could prove hugely useful in lectures, interviews, and more besides. It works offline too, but it’s not your only option for converting speech into text. If you have bought a Pixel 4 or Pixel 4 XL, you’ll find the Recorder app preinstalled (or you can download it here). The app can be sideloaded via an APK on other Android phones, but the real-time voice transcription won’t work—this is one of those features (like Motion Sense) that Google is hoping will get you to buy one of its new flagship phones. Once loaded up, the app has a simple but tasteful design: You hit the big red record button and recording starts, as you would expect. The recording opens the Audio tab, which shows a sound wave representation of what’s being heard, but you can switch back and forth between that and the Transcript screen, where spe...

Pixelbook Go review: Premium price for a premium device

Before I share thoughts after using the Pixelbook Go for more than 80 hours, I want to explain why this review didn’t appear alongside the many others last week, when the embargo lifted. Simply put: It wasn’t ready. I don’t write reviews to an artificial deadline, at least not unless I feel they’re actually complete and provide maximum value to readers. I wanted to make sure I fully tested the device in as many ways as possible, which I now have done. So let’s get started with the Pixelbook Go! Specs and benchmarks (only because people want to see them) So I’m sure by now, nearly every potential Pixelbook Go buyer knows all the hardware specifications and configurations; most are similar, if not identical to the Google Pixel Slate. Still, this is necessary info to set the stage, so here’s what’s inside and out of the Pixelbook Go, which is a clamshell laptop. Note that my review unit, like every other one that I know of, is the $849 configuration. I’ll discuss the $649 model ...

Samsung’s new Galaxy Book Flex and Ion laptops bring better designs to the lineup

Samsung has a pair of new laptops — the Galaxy Book Flex and Galaxy Book Ion — that will replace the company’s old Samsung Notebook 9 Pen and Notebook 9 models, respectively. Samsung is making some big changes on these laptops, both inside and out. There are the expected boosts in specs, of course, as well as very welcome redesigns that bring the two models more in line with the modern design language that Samsung introduced earlier this year with the Notebook 9 Pro. The new Galaxy Books are Samsung’s first laptops to use QLED displays, which is the same display tech that the company uses on its line of high-end flat-screen TVs. Samsung says they should be brighter (with a maximum of 600 nitts using a special “Outdoor Mode” and up to 400 nitts regularly) and more color accurate than before. Both laptops also feature Intel’s latest 10th Gen chips: the convertible Galaxy Book Flex has 10nm Ice Lake processors, while the Galaxy Book Ion will have the 14nm Comet Lake chipsets based ...

Dell Vostro 15 7590 With i7-9750H, GTX 1650 on Sale for $1,099

The Vostro 15 7590, which Dell normally sells for $1,998.57, has gone on sale for $1,099. That means if you're in the market for a new business-class laptop, you're in luck. The Vostro 15 7590 is a 15.6-inch laptop that measures 9.4 x 14.1 x 0.7 inches (239 x 358 x 18mm) and weighs 4.1 pounds (1.85 kg). It sports a slim body with narrow bezels and an anti-glare display with a resolution of 1920 x 1080. The laptop is powered by a 9th-Generation Intel Core i7-9750H processor. The six-core, 12-thread chip clocks in with a 2.6 GHz base clock and 4.5 GHz boost clock. The processor is accompanied with 16GB of DDR4-2666 memory and a 512GB PCIe-NVMe M.2 SSD. Although Dell markets the Vostro 15 7590 as a business laptop, it offers some decent gaming, thanks to the inclusion of Nvidia's Turing-powered GTX 1650 graphics. The graphics card sports 896 CUDA cores and 4GB of GDDR5 memory, which should be enough for all your casual gaming needs. Other useful feat...

The Moto 360 smartwatch is back, but Motorola isn't making it

The original Moto 360 was one of the most attractive smartwatches around when it launched way back in 2015. As the first round Android Wear watch, it made a huge impression with slick-looking wearables fans despite some hiccups at launch, but as with so many tech firsts, it gradually lost its charm. Now, however, it's making a comeback. In the same nostalgic vein as HMD's revival of the Nokia, or TCL bringing back the BlackBerry, the Moto 360 has been given a contemporary makeover and is being brought back to the masses. This time around it'll feature a Qualcomm Snapdragon Wear 3100 platform, 8GB of storage and 1GB RAM, an always-on display and fast charging that'll have it juiced from zero to 100 percent in just an hour. Plus it comes with all-day battery life and a battery-saving mode that will keep the time displayed for three days even when the battery is critical. And, of course, it'll boast the good looks that made it so popular the first time ...

Samsung unveils new foldable flip phone concept

Samsung has teased a new foldable phone concept onstage at the company’s developer conference today. The new concept, which Samsung didn’t name, looks more like a traditional flip phone thanks to a foldable display that allows the device to fold in half. “This brand-new form factor that we’re now exploring will not only easily fit in your pocket, but it also changes the way you use your phone,” explained Hyesoon Jeong, head of Samsung’s framework R&D group, onstage at Samsung’s Developer Conference. The idea behind the concept is to take Samsung’s foldable smartphone technology and push it to “become more compact,” and extend to new device form factors. Samsung didn’t spend much time detailing the device, nor when the company plans to make this available. There was no mention of the hardware involved, and whether Samsung has improved its foldable display technology from last year. The company did use this mysterious device as a bridge to discuss an upcoming update to its One UI...
