Chrome tab groups are live in Canary on Android

Chrome tab groups are live in Canary on Android

We've known for a while that the Chrome team was working on tab groups. The feature first showed up in Canary on the desktop, but it's now made its way to Android, also in the Canary channel. It's hidden behind a flag though, and works... sort of.
The "Tag groups" flag (found at the URL chrome://flags/#enable-tab-groups) lets you enable groups. The only way to trigger them now is to open a new tab and tap and hold on any icon in the recommended sites. You'll see the "Open in new tab in group" option. A new bottom menu (which is the weird interface we covered a while back) will appear, and this is where the tabs belonging to this group reside. You can switch between them, open a new tab, and expand the menu to view tab thumbnails and close them.
 
Left: Opening in a new tab group. Right: Switching between tabs in a group.
The feature is still unfinished though. When you access the regular tab switcher, the group is only represented by the last tab you viewed in it. There's no stack of cards, for example, to show that this is a group, which can get very confusing.

With the latest Chrome Canary v75.0.3748 (APK Mirror), tab groups have received a couple of improvements. First, there's a new button to create a group in the grid tab layout. So instead of having to go through a link on the home page to do it, you can now easily start a group from the switcher. Second is that a tab group is represented by a grid of mini thumbnails, and the number of tabs inside is clear.
 
Left: Create group from the tab switcher. Right: Tab groups show mini thumbnails now.
Finally, one last improvement was discovered by our tipster, Nick Cipriani. You can now swipe any of the tabs or groups away (left to right) in the switcher. This feature was missing when the grid layout was introduced. Tapping the small close button was certainly more annoying than a simple swipe.

Some Hot New Technologies That Will Change Everything

Some Hot New Technologies That Will Change Everything Illustration: Randy Lyhus The Next Big thing? The  memristor , a microscopic component that can "remember" electrical states even when turned off. It's expected to be far cheaper and faster than flash storage. A theoretical concept since 1971, it has now been built in labs and is already starting to revolutionize everything we know about computing, possibly making flash memory, RAM, and even hard drives obsolete within a decade. The memristor is just one of the incredible technological advances sending shock waves through the world of computing. Other innovations in the works are more down-to-earth, but they also carry watershed significance. From the technologies that finally make  paperless offices  a reality to those that deliver  wireless power , these advances should make your humble PC a far different beast come the turn of the decade.

Samsung Galaxy S10 pictured with two cameras, S855-powered S10+ benchmarked

The revised renders of the Galaxy S10+ showed a  quad camera  on the back. Now the Samsung Galaxy S10 design has come to light and it has two rear cameras. Different camera setups were used to differentiate the Galaxy S9 duo this year. But next year there will be no less than three Galaxy S flagships. The S10+ should be the top model with four cameras and a large curved screen. Then there will be two models with a 5.8” screen – one curved and one flat (the base model). So, which one is the one in the image? We guess it’s the middle model, the one with a curved screen and an in-display fingerprint reader. The base model will likely have a  side-mounted reader . This image doesn’t offer a clear view of the sides, but the case doesn’t seem to have cutouts for a power button/FP reader combo. Either way, there’s one Galaxy S10 model unaccounted for – how many cameras will it have? Moving on to what you can’t see – the performance of the chipset. The Galaxy S10+ with...
