Justin lives for gadgets, even if there isn’t a circuit board inside. From pool cues to nerf blasters to paper card stock, there’s nothing he won’t obsess about if curiosity gets the better of him. A self-professed master of useless information (his words, not ours), he has spent the greater part of 13 years writing about technology (and grumbling about it), having worked with PC Magazine, Gadget3, T3 (not the airport terminal), Stuff and NXT (not the wrestling one) among others. He has also written all manner of topics for non-tech publications like Spirited Singapore (not the ghostly kind), Active Age, and The Robb Report, to name a few. (Be warned: he’ll sidetrack every conversation.)

Google cut 19g and 0.7mm from its Fold while making it brighter and tougher. It’s still a big boy, though.
The cameras, charging, and displays receive minor upgrades, and the regular Pixel 11 could be the biggest beneficiary this round.
