The Google Pixel 7 Pro was a good smartphone overall. It packed in everything a casual smartphone user would expect from an Android smartphone including, the now standard, timely software updates. But it came up short in a few areas like battery life, charging and had its fair share of heating issues and camera-related bugs as well.

On November 5, a video of actor Rashmika Mandanna emerged online where she can be allegedly seen entering an elevator. The video went viral on social media, but soon it was revealed that it was not Mandanna at all. In fact, it was a masterfully created deepfake video where the actor's face was superimposed on that of a British-Indian influencer.
