Android now shows battery information in settings! You can now go to Settings > About phone > Battery information to see the manufacture date and cycle count of your device’s battery. Not every device will report this info, though.
Sadly, this page doesn’t show the battery stat that I think most of you are interested in: the state of health, ie. the remaining estimated full charge capacity relative to the rated capacity in %.

As I previously reported, Android is getting support for saving an app pair, and more progress has been made on this feature. In Android 14 QPR1 Beta 1, you can now actually save and launch an app pair. However, it doesn’t have an icon and can’t be renamed.

Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 5, the Pixel Fold currently doesn’t let you continue most apps on the cover screen.
That’ll change with the Android 14 QPR1 update, which is adding a “continue using apps on fold” setting!
More details over on Android Authority.

When you close the Pixel Fold, most apps won't transition from the inner to the outer display. With a new Android 14 QPR1 feature, they can.

Follow-up: Here's a first look at the new "Repair Mode" option under Settings > System. Tapping it does nothing right now since the Repair Mode app is missing.

As I previously revealed to Patrons/X subscribers, Android 14 is preparing a "bubble bar" that'll stack multiple bubbles onto the bottom right of the taskbar.
You can see the bubble bar handle where you'll swipe up in the screenshot below, but it doesn't work right now.

Google Pixel 8a images have been leaked
Abhishek Yadav
Twitter user Abhishek Yadav has leaked images of the unreleased Pixel 8a in blue.
The device looks similar to the regular Pixel 7a, with it being more rounded compared to the predecessor. Its metal sides are matte with a pill-shaped camera cutout and shiny back glass.
Just like other A-series models, the display has thick bezels compared to flagship Pixels and other phones.
The device is likely running an AOSP build and has stickers marking it as a prototype with links to internal Google websites.
Abhishek also mentioned that the Pixel 8a features the Tensor G3 chip and its codename is

Promo clip for the Google Pixel 8
91mobiles
Google Pixel 8 announcement is around the corner but leaks never stop until that day arrives. Now, the promo video has been leaked, which gives us a slightly better look and understanding on the phone.
Pretty much all of the features that we have already known so far that are coming for the Pixel 8 are mentioned in the video itself, like Night Sight for video and Audio Magic Eraser. There's apparently more controls added into the camera app too, which is finally a thing on a Pixel after all this time.
