The 8A gets Google’s latest processor, adds a bunch of new AI features, and still starts at $499 in the US.

The 8A...

Nanoplastics are attracting growing concern thanks to recent technological advances that have made researchers more able to detect and analyze them.
It’s become common to read that microplastics—little bits of plastic, smaller than a pencil eraser—are turning up everywhere and in everything, including the ocean, farmland, food and human bodies.
