RIP Exynos;
Tensor G1 (2021) - Tensor G5 (2025) πͺ¦π₯
βIt's fair to say that Google's Exynos-backed Tensor era is actually coming to an end β day by day.
With the Tensor G5 being the very first Google-made SOC produced by TSMC, the most well-known competitor to Samsung Foundries, it seems like Google is now preparing for another major shift.
We will be straight: Tensor G6 (codenamed: Malibu) is full of surprises, including a brand-new modem, currently undergoing early internal testing.
We're talking about the - latest and greatest - MediaTek M90, unveiled at the MWC2025.
This modem is significantly faster and more energy-efficient compared to the current Tensor G5's modem, the Exynos 5400(i), featuring top-of-the-class features and record-breaking network speeds, possibly putting an end to Google Pixel's notoriously bad battery life as early as next year.
While it's still too early for definitive conclusions, what's your take? Comment down below!
Oh, and, stay tuned for more Tensor G6 & Pixel 11 news, we've a lot more for you π

As November draws near...
...so does some spicy news from Google just for you β¨
With October coming to an end, the moment for an all-new Google Pixel Drop is getting closer and closer.
βIn an exclusive preview, hereβs your first look at whatβs arriving in this upcoming release, officially set to launch on November 4.
β’ Theme Packs: Although leaks about this new feature surfaced months ago, it wasn't sure whether it would make it to the public sooner or later
βBut the November 2025 Pixel Drop holds a huge surprise in that regard: the very first Pixel Theme is on its way, inspired by the upcoming film "Wicked: For Good"β with its first screenings set for the same day as the Drop.
β
ββ’ Pixel Studio Animations: Beginning with this feature drop, you can breathe new life into your photos and GIFs using the Pixel Studio app, generating a small AI video-clip of them.
β
βThe AI model behind this remains unclear, though it may very well be powered by Googleβs latest Veo 3(.1).
β
ββ’ Pixel VIP Notifications: For the first time since its introduction, the Pixel VIP feature might actually prove somewhat useful (π₯), thanks to the inclusion of prioritized notifications for all your VIP contactsβ though currently limited to WhatsApp and Google Messages conversations.
β
βFor more details, feel free to check out the official infographics included with this post.

This 2026 looks so... dual π
As the new year goes by, we think it's now the right time to start giving you a good showcase of a bunch of features Google plans to implement in the next Android 17 update.
While the next major iteration of Google's OS - codenamed CinnamonBun - is still undergoing internal planning, it's safe to assess that the Mountain View tech-giant is working hard to improve Android's accessibility and overall UX.
So, here's two great changes that we could expect:
β’ Dual Shade: Remember when we first discussed this in May? Well, Google has made significant progress since then, fixing most of the functional and visual bugs it had.
As a side note, we must say they still managed to *fuck it up*. Foldables and tablet users will be forced to use the new dual-shade quick settings panel on their bigger screens, no way out, it's intentional.
β’ Divided network toggles: After YEARS of user complaints, Google finally listened to their fanbase and managed to implement an optional switch to finally divide the Wi-Fi and Mobile Data toggles. Yes, even we are surprised.
As always, let us know what you think about these upcoming changes down below!

Security just got... Epic? ππ
We've already leaked some details about the Tensor G6 (Malibu) and its connectivity upgrades, but it seems like Google isn't stopping there.
As another great addition to Malibu's enhancements, we have found what appears to be the next generation of Google's security chip: the Titan M3 - codenamed "Google Epic", with firmware-name "longjing"
While it's impossible to assert the actual differences with Titan M2, we can expect some significant architectural improvements, as well as more advanced security features.
This would effectively allow Google Titan to step up its game and compete with the latest iterations of its most direct competitor in the mobile industry, Apple SEP.
What do you think? Will it be an Epic fail or an actually great upgrade? Comment down below!

What's up! We have some bad news for you...
The Pixel 10 devices (excluding the 10a) are getting a bootloader update in one of the future Android releases that increments the anti-rollback version for the bootloader.
This means that, after upgrading, you won't be able to downgrade to a lower version of Android. You might need to sideload a full OTA image again to avoid bricking in certain situations.
By the way, we're working on Pixel 11 leaks and a chemical element (13), stay tuned!

This isn't a leak, but...
BREAKING: Nekogram is secretly sending your phone numbers to the developer
The backdoor is hidden in the http://Extra.java
file, which differs from the template uploaded to the repository. The obfuscated code sends data as an inline request to the @nekonotificationbot, leaving no trace.
More info about the backdoor: https://github.com/Nekogram/Nekogram/issues/336 (locked by Nekogram devs)
To validate this, we made a PoC: an LSPosed module that replaces the bot ID and username to ours so all requests are going to it. That way, we confirmed that the phone numbers are being collected. Every. Login.
The PoC is available here: https://github.com/RomashkaTea/nekogram-proof-of-logging
What should you do?
1. Report the app on Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=tw.nekomimi.nekogram
2. Report the repository on GitHub: https://github.com/Nekogram/Nekogram
3. Delete the app and stop using unofficial Telegram clients
