Several Reddit users confirmed they were offered the loyalty/retention deal, even without directly requesting it. Customers can search for “transfer pin” in their My Verizon account to try and trigger the retention offer. Customers in the US can choose from a variety of great Verizon plans, but there are always ways to sweeten the deal. Some loyal Verizon customers are being offered a sweet $10 discount per line for a year, and all they had to do was raise a support request for a genuine issue. Reddit user Amaranth1313 had raised a support request for a refund on an outage related to international roaming. The user was granted the refund they had requested in their support request, but Verizon also generously offered a $10 per month discount for their lines for the next 12 months. As per the user, the support representative claimed it was a “pure discount with no hidden features or locking or anything like that.”

The Pitaka PinButton case for the Galaxy S25 Ultra adds three programmable NFC buttons. Users can assign routines or actions through One UI’s Modes and Routines without extra apps. These buttons only work while the phone is unlocked due to Android limitations. The Galaxy S25 Ultra is Samsung’s overkill flagship for 2025, but compared to other Android Ultra flagships, the S25 Ultra does feel a little underwhelming. There’s definitely room for Samsung to improve a lot about the Ultra flagship, and a good starting point could be to give users a customizable button, just like Apple is offering with the Action button on the latest iPhones. Thankfully, you don’t have to wait for Samsung to add a button to your Galaxy S25 Ultra, as you can do it yourself with this case and some nifty One UI tricks. The Pitaka PinButton case for the Galaxy S25 Ultra is similar to other great cases, but it has something that we don’t ordinarily see on other cases: three customizable buttons. These buttons sit on the left edge of the case and work through the magic of NFC. What’s more, you don’t need to download any additional apps, as this NFC functionality is used through One UI’s Modes and Routines feature to let you do a plethora of tasks at the press of a button.

The all-new Moto G Stylus (2025) brings several improvements, including a more powerful chip, better display, and faster charging. The device is priced at $399.99 and will be available starting April 17. If you’re a fan of phones with built-in styluses, you can either pony up the big bucks for Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Ultra or take the more affordable approach and grab Motorola’s Moto G Stylus. The latter may not be as feature-rich as the Galaxy flagship, but it’s the only way to get a phone with a built-in stylus without breaking the bank. Fortunately, Motorola has improved its latest iteration, making the new Moto G Stylus (2025) feel like less of a compromise than last year’s model. What’s new in Motorola’s latest stylus phone? Although the Moto G Stylus (2025) features the same size display as its predecessor, Motorola has equipped the new phone with a brighter, higher-resolution 6.7-inch pOLED panel. Instead of a 1080p panel with a peak brightness of 1,200 nits, the latest model features a 2712X1220p panel that has a peak brightness of 3,000 nits. You also get a more capable Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 SoC, which should deliver better performance than the Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 chip on last year’s model.

ANBERNIC has revealed its first device of 2025, the RG-557, featuring a large AMOLED display. It’s the most powerful device the company has ever released, emulating Wii U and upscaled PS2 games with ease. No word on pricing or release dates, but it may be packing the Snapdragon G2 Gen 1 processor. ANBERNIC has been suspiciously quiet this year after releasing a whopping 12 devices in 2024. Today the company finally announced its first device of 2025, and it looks like it might be a powerful alternative to popular retro Android gaming handhelds like the Retroid Pocket 5. The ANBERNIC RG-557 is a large device with a 5.48-inch HD AMOLED display. It’s the same size and rough design as the RG-556 from last March, but if rumors are true, it will pack far more power.

Credit: Robert Triggs / Android Authority Google’s Pixel series has staked a lot on its photography reputation, and the upcoming Pixel 10 Pro models seem to say: “We’re happy with what we have.” According to our latest exclusive look at the upcoming phones, the Pixel 10 Pro and Pro XL use the same hardware as their predecessors. Still, there is something new in store for prospective Pixel 10 buyers: a new telephoto zoom camera — a first for the entry-level flagship. While the Pixel 10’s three sensors might appear like a considerable upgrade at first glance, Google is downgrading the main and ultrawide cameras to use the same components found in the budget Pixel 9a. In a sense, you can think of the Pixel 10’s camera setup as the Pixel 9a with a zoom lens attached rather than a smaller version of the Pixel 10 Pro. These thinner and smaller modules might make room for that new lens and/or help keep costs in check, but there are bound to be negative repercussions for image quality — and that’s set my alarm bells ringing.

iOS 19 preview leaks hint at UI redesigns, including rounder icons and bouncy animations. A new TabView dock could unify navigation within Apple apps, with third-party support likely. One of iOS 19’s headline features for the iPhone 17 Pro could be simultaneous front and rear camera recording, something Samsung debuted with the Galaxy S4 in 2013. The iPhone 17 series will be Apple’s hot launch of 2025 with a refreshed design, but the company has a lot more in store this year. iOS 19 is also expected to feature a refreshed design, with first developer previews expected to arrive in June after WWDC and stable releases following the iPhone 17 launch. Now, we have more details about how iOS 19 could look, and surprisingly, it could come with a feature that Samsung launched back in 2013 with the Galaxy S4. iOS 19’s (leaked) dual camera recording feature debuted on Android more than a decade ago Following up on his first look at iOS 19, leaker Jon Prosser has shared a second, updated look at Apple’s upcoming iOS 19 update, providing mockups of the updated UI that he has seen in order to protect his sources. As part of the leak, the leaker mentions that iOS 19 is expected to introduce a new camera feature exclusive to the iPhone 17 Pro models: the ability to record video from the front and rear cameras.

Google Wallet is working to let you assign nicknames to transit passes. While some signs of this functionality are present in the latest Google Play Services beta, others are not yet functional. The company announced the feature on April 8. Update: April 8, 2025 (5:21 AM ET): It’s taken a while, but Google has quietly announced the ability to assign nicknames to your transit passes in Google Wallet. This comes over six months after we first spotted the feature (as seen in the original article below). “With this new feature, you can add a nickname to your passes in Wallet,” Google noted in the changelog of an April 2025 Google Play Services update (version 25.13).
