  • The Anker Nebula Prizm II is a no-frills projector at a decent price

    We’ve tried out plenty of Anker projectors over the past few years, most recently the Android TV-equipped Nebula Capsule II. The Capsule II is great, but it’s also very expensive — the regular price comes in at $579.99. If you want something just as bright, and you’re willing to sacrifice on the portability (and the […]

  • Google killing its tablets in 2019 is as shortsighted as it was in 2016

    Today, Google announced it was giving up on tablets… again. I have never been a cheerleader for Google’s tablets. I have never been very happy with its primary tablet platform. And I found its first tablet in three years to be a fairly massive disappointment. So, you’d think the news today that Google is, once […]

  • ASUS ZenFone 4 receives Android 9 Pie beta

    ASUS is killing it with updates lately, and this trend just continues. After the ZenFone 4 Max and Selfie received betas of Android 9 Pie, their smaller brother is now getting a similar treatment with ASUS announcing an update to the same OS version for the regular ZenFone 4. It’s impressive that the company is […]

  • OxygenOS 9.5.8 update rolling out to OnePlus 7 Pro: More touchscreen tweaks, May security patches, and other fixes

    OnePlus is pushing out updates for its latest flagship basically every week, and today brings us yet another new version of OxygenOS for the 7 Pro. The update to v9.5.8 includes May’s security patches, further touch sensitivity improvements, better call audio quality, better compatibility with third-party USB Type-C headphones, and other fixes. Some folks reported […]

  • AT&T LG V35 ThinQ now receiving Android Pie update

    LG’s V-series lineup has become quite convoluted in recent years, with the V30, V30S, V35, V40, and V50 all having been released in the span of 1.5 years. The ATT V40 received its Pie update about a week ago, and it’s now the slightly older V35’s turn. Android 9 Pie first came to the V35 […]

  • Aukey’s 30W USB-C wall charger is $20 ($10 off) with coupon code

    Need to charge your phone or laptop quick and fast? A good 30-watt wall charger can make a lot of sense, but even with recent innovations, the bulk that get sold are still kinda big — if you’re plugging into a packed power strip, you’re often negotiating for space. But there are ways to get […]

  • YouTube testing revolutionary new comment improvement system

    YouTube’s comment sections (and comment sections in general) are typically an unpleasant experience, especially when they’re attached to content covering a contentious subject. In what is probably the single best change YouTube’s platform will ever see, Google is experimenting with a way of hiding comments in the Android app, moving the peanut gallery’s frequently vitriolic […]

  • The Moto Z4 is tragically boring and behind the times

    Motorola promised at least three years of Mod compatibility when it announced the first Moto Z phones in 2016, and we’re about to go beyond that with the new Moto Z4. Good on Motorola for sticking with it and giving consumers some confidence their Mod purchases would not be in vain. Although, Mods still don’t […]

  • Samsung’s new 128GB Galaxy Tab S5e is already $50 off ($430)

    The Galaxy Tab S5e was originally announced earlier this year, and it arrived in the United States in April. It’s Samsung’s latest mid-range tablet, with a large AMOLED screen and a thin design, and now you can get the 128GB version for $429.99 — $50 off the original price. This tablet has a Snapdragon 670 […]

  • LG Watch W7 drops to $190 ($210 off) at B&H

    LG announced the Watch W7 last year with an exorbitant $450 price tag. Thankfully, that price didn’t last long—the watch went on “sale” almost immediately and has never sold for full price. It’s even cheaper than usual today, though. You can pick up this smartwatch for $190 at BH. Most Wear OS devices offer basically […]

  • [Update: Note9 too] Samsung Galaxy S9 gets Night Mode and other camera improvements in latest update

    Update 1: 2019/06/17 7:25am PDT Samsung isn’t known for gracefully aging devices, with previous generations quickly falling out of the company’s favor. However, the firm is getting better at providing timely updates, as the Galaxy S9 received the rethought TouchWiz One UI along with Android Pie in December, giving it the same software as its successor. […]

  • Arlo Baby monitor is at all-time low of $130 on Amazon ($70 off)

    Babies are a bundle of joy. They can also be a bundle of nerves to take care of for parents, especially in what are supposed to be sleeping hours — that’s why a lot of people consider buying baby monitors. The Arlo Baby is just one option out there and it’s now more affordable than […]
