The Mate 10 is easily the best flagship smartphone you can buy for under $1,000, and has no problem going toe-to-toe with far pricier handsets in terms of camera, performance, design, and battery life.

Google has unveiled Datally: a new app for Android designed to cut down on excess mobile phone data use.
The Pixel 2 XL is one of the best Android phones you can buy, but it's not quite a homerun for Google.
