Here's a better look at the lock screen shortcut customization feature Google announced at I/O

At Google I/O, Google announced that "you'll be able to bring your own inspiration to customize your lock screen with new shortcuts and beautifully crafted clocks." They shared a video showing lock screen shortcut customization, but they didn't show off every shortcut that'll be available.

Rare budget phones that truly passed the test of time?

To my big phone lovers. How big do you want it?

I prefer big phones.

Despite the circlejerk around these parts of wanting smaller phones. I definitely am a big phone lover.

I want a phone so big that if it slips from my hand instead of going inside the toilet it doesn't fall inside instead lands on the toilet seat.

I want a phone so big that when it falls on my face I go to sleep

Note this was written a few months ago, I tried to update the relevant information. so sorry if some stuff is a bit outdated.

Intro:
So I got this phone from a friend of mine to mess around with. It's the Japanese au model. I was wondering how this phone felt like being used since it's such a quirky phone even for 2018 standards.

A look at Android's hidden "forced themed icon" feature: Is it any good?

When Google released Android 13 QPR2 Beta 2 back in January, I spotted a new launcher flag named "ENABLEFORCEDMONOICON" that "enable[s] the ability to generate monochromatic icons, if it is not provided by the app."
