Lance Whitney / Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNETPasskeys promise to replace passwords as a more secure and convenient login method. But they still have a way to go before fulfilling that promise. That’s because passkeys are often way too difficult to set up on one device, let alone all the devices you use. The industry itself offers no standard or consistent method to save and store passkeys, so each company has cobbled together its own process, which may or may not work.Also: Passkeys won’t be ready for primetime until Google and other companies fix thisBy far, the biggest obstacle to using passkeys is trying to synchronize them across all the browsers and devices that you use.

Kerry Wan/ZDNETThere’s been no shortage of Pixel 10 leaks leading up to its expected August launch event — even Google has taken part in it. While early renders and marketing imagery point to a family of phones that look nearly identical (if not the same) as the last generation, the biggest feature upgrade with the Pixel 10 series may actually be hidden in plain sight.Qi2 certificationI’m talking about Qi2 certification, the wireless charging standard introduced at CES more than two years ago that has yet to gain widespread market adoption due to material costs, lack of user demand, and other reasons, according to brands. At the time of writing, only recent iPhone and Samsung models and the HMD Skyline are considered Qi2‑ready. That’s it. Also: The next big wireless charging leap is coming soon: What Qi2 25W means for Android phonesIf the latest rumors are true, the Pixel 10 series will join that list, while also surpassing the likes of Samsung for one key reason: magnets.
