Published

Perhaps the nearest competitors to Google’s Stadia is Amazon Luna, and now the stage is getting an outstanding extension. Amazon Luna is available now on Android gadgets.

Back at launch, Amazon Luna astounded a great many people by dispatching on Windows, Fire TV, the web, and Apple’s iOS, which, at that point, needed help for any cloud gaming stages. In the interim, Android was left on the shortlist. Presently, Amazon has made the ways for Luna on Android.

Much the same as on iOS, Luna for Android is a web application got to at amazon.com/luna. Amazon says you’ll should utilize the Chrome program and Android 9 or higher. The organization likewise referenced that its own Luna Controller, just as Bluetooth regulators, for example, the DualShock 4 and Xbox One Controller, are additionally upheld. You can even “install” Luna as a Progressive Web App on your homescreen, complete with another UI when you do as such.

Oddly, however, Amazon is restricting this web application to just a chosen handful gadgets. For now, you’ll need one of the accompanying to play Amazon Luna on Android:

  • Pixel 4 XL
  • Pixel 4a
  • Pixel 4a 5G
  • Pixel 5
  • Samsung Galaxy S10
  • Samsung Galaxy S10+
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 10
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 10+
  • Samsung Galaxy S20
  • Samsung Galaxy S20+
  • Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra
  • OnePlus 7
  • OnePlus 7 Pro
  • OnePlus 8
  • OnePlus 8 Pro
  • OnePlus Nord
  • OnePlus 7T
  • OnePlus 7T Pro
  • OnePlus 7T Pro

It’s somewhat peculiar that Amazon has a limitation on the web application in any case since, in principle, the specs of your gadget shouldn’t make any difference all that much. In any case, it’s much odder that this rundown discards some conspicuous gadgets. For instance, for what reason is the Pixel 4 XL upheld, yet not the Pixel 4? Additionally, where’s the Galaxy Note 20 arrangement? In the event that you do attempt to get to Luna from an unsupported gadget, the page blunders out, at any rate sometimes. My Note 20 Ultra turned out completely great, yet a Galaxy Z Fold 2 fizzled subsequent to picking my record. Your outcomes may shift. Remarkably, Stadia bolsters all Android gadgets.

Despite the odd limitation, it’s extraordinary to see Luna arrive on Android. Amazon says that more gadgets will be added while Luna is in early access. You can demand a welcome to the $5.99/month service here.

Google is said to be discontinuing the Pixel Tablet 2 and may be leaving the market once more

Published

on

Google terminated the development of the Pixel Tablet 3 yesterday, according to Android Headlines, even before a second-generation model was announced. The second-generation Pixel Tablet has actually been canceled, according to the report. This means that the gadget that was released last year will likely be a one-off, and Google is abandoning the tablet market for the second time in just over five years.

If accurate, the report indicates that Google has determined that it is not worth investing more money in a follow-up because of the dismal sales of the Pixel Tablet. Rumors of a keyboard accessory and more functionality for the now-defunct project surfaced as recently as last week.

It’s important to keep in mind that Google’s Nest subsidiary may abandon its plans for large-screen products in favor of developing technologies like the Nest Hub and Hub Max rather than standalone tablets.

Google has always had difficulty making a significant impact in the tablet market and creating a competitor that can match Apple’s iPad in terms of sales and general performance, not helped in the least by its inconsistent approach. Even though the hardware was good, it never really fought back after getting off to a promising start with the Nexus 7 eons ago. Another problem that has hampered Google’s efforts is that Android significantly trails iPadOS in terms of the quantity of third-party apps that are tablet-optimized.

After the Pixel Slate received tremendously unfavorable reviews, the firm first declared that it was finished producing tablets in 2019. Two tablets that were still in development at the time were discarded.

By 2022, however, Google had altered its mind and declared that a tablet was being developed by its Pixel hardware team. The $499 Pixel Tablet was the final version of the gadget, which came with a speaker dock that the tablet could magnetically connect to. (Google would subsequently charge $399 for the tablet alone.)

Windows 11 PCs with Arm Processors now have an Official ISO for Clean Installations

Published

on

Power users occasionally prefer to start over when they acquire a new computer, so they follow the pro-gamers’ advice and reinstall Windows using a brand-new ISO image that comes straight from Microsoft and is free of bloatware and needlessly complex “driver management programs.” Up until recently, the new Snapdragon laptops’ more specialized version of Windows 11 didn’t support that.

The Windows 11 build on these new laptops is unusual because of the Arm64-based hardware, which differs from the typical x86 and x64 innards found in most laptops and desktops. Microsoft has finally released a disk image (or ISO file) for these devices after several months of waiting. To perform a direct reinstallation or make a bootable flash drive for a different device, you may now download it straight from Microsoft’s website. It is identical to the installation media utility that is currently available.

Be aware that there may be some glitches if you use this method for a fresh install. Compared to previous designs, the Snapdragon X system-on-a-chip has a lot fewer hardware variables, but because it’s so new, Windows Update might not include all the necessary components. You may need to use an Ethernet connection or the old-fashioned sneakernet to manually load drivers from another computer. You may also need to do some Googling to locate all the files you require for that.
