Google releases third Android Beta 13 Beta 3 build issuing more fixes

We are towards the end of the month and Google has released a third build for its Android 13 Beta 3. This month’s beta build has seen enough issues for Google to have to release not one, two, but three builds to address critical fixes to beta testers. Android 13 beta 3.3 is purely intended to fix bugs and does not bring any new features. Some of the fixes include a conflict that was occurring between the keyboard and the launcher, and another bug where gestures like swiping “back” would cause the UI to crash – and thus not make for a great beta experience.

And while in that case the news was good, with the rumor saying the devices in question could ship with upgraded selfie cameras, the same apparently can't be said for the telephoto shooter on the rear. According to the same source, both the Galaxy S23 and the Galaxy S23+ will use the same 10 MP resolution for the telephoto camera as the S22 and S22+. It's likely that it's going to be 3x, as it was this year, and in fact it might very well be...

OnePlus Nord N20 5G is now available in the US unlocked

Amazon should join the party as well at some point later...

This will be a cut down on the previous base model, the 1650. This means it is based on the Turing architecture from 2019.

According to leaked data, the GTX 1630 will have fewer CUDA cores than the 1650, which will be compensated slightly with...
