A massive specs and image dump of Nothing's upcoming Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro has presumably been leaked online.

For years, predicting when quantum computing would become practical has been difficult, largely because of fundamental challenges that had no clear solutions.

Amazon announced it is shutting down its 'Amazon Appstore for Android' this summer as part of a broader effort to streamline and improve its services and programs.
