I've been thinking about the third generation (what should have been the second gen) and I believe Microsoft is going to have to make the device thicker than they wanted. Integrate the camera module into the back panel, so that there's no bump. That creates space for a larger battery and anything else they can cram in to justify the size. But it gives back the folding capability that the first one had.

Google got the Pixel price right, but it needs a heavy hand with marketing
Experts say the new Google Pixel lineup is guaranteed to turn consumers' heads, especially with the phone's pricing. But if the company wants to capture a larger market, it needs to dump more money into successfully marketing the phone to the right audience.
Google needs to apply it's AI to local spell checking.
If you are like me, years of resting on the crutch of omnipresent spell checking has weakened my spelling muscle to a limp noodle. For tough words we all know you can dump the most butchered phonetic spelling into Google search and get the proper spelling back out.

So this is a tweet from Quinn Nelson, of Snazzy Labs on YouTube, and he and others think the Pixel 6 vibration motor is pretty close to that of the latest iPhone.
