Despite being positioned in the mid-range price segment, the OnePlus Pad 2 is far ahead of other tablets with a similar price tag. For starters, it rocks an insanely powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, coupled with 12GB of RAM, delivering fast performance. This bad boy can tackle anything you throw its way, making it excellent for heavy apps and work. It's great for streaming content, too, featuring a 12.1-inch LCD display with a 3000 x 2120 resolution. While it doesn't have the deep blacks of AMOLED displays, it still offers a solid viewing experience. The screen also supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. However, some reports claim HDR works only on YouTube and local players, while Netflix doesn't even recognize it as HDR-compatible. So, keep that in mind.
Nevertheless, for just $449.99, the OnePlus Pad 2 is a true bargain and a perfect choice for buyers who don't want to overspend on a fancy Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra. So, if this handsome fella checks all the right boxes for you, don't hesitate—save today!

With this new capability, Gemini moves closer to being the perfect Assistant replacement

As you probably know by now, Google is phasing out the Google Assistant on Android phones and is replacing it with Gemini. When you think about it, this should raise the bar for digital assistants since Large Language Models can answer just about any question. Google uses its Utilities extension and Gemini's integration with Android's default Clock app to set timers and alarms. One Google Assistant feature that had been missing from Gemini was the Assistant's ability to identify songs. This is not as important to those with a Pixel phone since these handsets have the Now Playing feature that shows on the lock screen what song is playing within earshot. Regardless, if you currently use Gemini instead of Google Assistant, you'll be happy to know that you can now ask Gemini for the name of the song that you can hear playing around you in the background. Previously, when asked "What song is this?," Gemini would respond by telling you to install a music recognition app. On the other hand, asking that question to Google Assistant would result in the correct answer being displayed on the phone. However, Google has recently updated Gemini on Android to allow it to run the Google app's "Song Search" feature which can find the name of a song even when you merely hum the tune. Ask Gemini to name a song on Android and you'll get a quick response via the Google app. | Image credit-PhoneArena Now when you ask Gemini to tell you the name of the song playing in the background you'll see a multi-colored oscillating sphere. This will be followed by a response from the Google app using its "Song Search" feature which includes the name of the song, the artist, an option to see an overview of the song or view the lyrics, and a video of the tune. On iOS, asking Gemini to identify a song playing in the background comes up empty as the app states that it is a text-based AI and cannot hear any audio. Also with iOS, asking the Google app to identify a song results in a suggestion that you use a music recognition app like Shazam. Asking Siri to name a song gets excellent results because Siri simply opens the Shazam music recognition app to get your answer even if you don't have Shazam installed on your phone.

Apple sued again over broken AI promises, and this time by its own shareholders

Apple is now facing a new legal challenge, this time from its own shareholders. A proposed securities fraud class action was filed in federal court on June 20, accusing the company of misleading investors about the timeline and capabilities of its artificial intelligence features, particularly those tied to Siri and the iPhone 16. The lawsuit, filed in San Francisco's Northern District of California, claims Apple downplayed how long it would take to deliver the AI upgrades it introduced as part of Apple Intelligence. The plaintiffs argue that these delays contributed to a decline in iPhone sales and a significant drop in the company's stock value. The case, Tucker v. Apple Inc, names CEO Tim Cook, CFO Kevan Parekh, and former CFO Luca Maestri as defendants. According to the complaint, investors were led to believe that Apple Intelligence would be a key selling point for the iPhone 16 lineup, offering smarter and more capable Siri experiences. But shareholders claim Apple did not actually have a working version of those features when it made those announcements during the June 2024 Worldwide Developers Conference. The situation became more complicated earlier this year when Apple reportedly postponed some of the new Siri capabilities to 2026. That initial delay came in March, and was followed by a WWDC 2025 presentation that left many analysts underwhelmed with the company's AI progress. In the months since, Apple shares have fallen nearly 25 percent from their all-time high in late December 2024, wiping out about $900 billion in market value. Apple's broken AI promise prompted this new round of litigation. | Image credit — Apple via Wayback Machine From a consumer standpoint, I think it was only a matter of time before legal action followed. Many users were expecting next-gen Siri features out of the box. Now that the lawsuit is official, Apple may need to move quickly to restore trust. Ideally, that means delivering more AI upgrades sooner, though it's likely the company will now be more cautious about overpromising in the future. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!
