Windows Search has been one of the most frustrating parts of Windows 11, and now Microsoft is addressing this with a significant overhaul. A new redesigned Windows Search is now in testing that is much faster, more capable, and a lot more modern. “This new Windows Search experience is built for speed,” says Anshul Rawat, […]
Of all the things Alexa Plus can do, I never expected it to make me cry. Since my son left for college, the Echo Show in my office has been making then-and-now photo montages: the toddler with his first tennis racket next to the captain of his varsity team; me hugging him as a tween […]
Amazon’s Fire tablets are notable for being dirt cheap. While they’re great for kids, they don’t offer a premium Android tablet experience. The company’s new $499 Alexa Tablet 12 Pro is an attempt to build a device someone might actually want to use. It’s one of a few new Android tablets Amazon announced today, and […]
Googlebooks are here. The first models went on sale Sunday, October 4th, and we received review units of all five Googlebooks about 24 hours ago. Since then, we’ve been in a mad dash to put the devices through their paces and get a check on what it’s like to use these Android laptops. At first […]
Confession: When BougeRV told me about its remote-controlled wagon with animated lighting, I called it in for a laugh, expecting to eviscerate it in a review. It’s ridiculous, to be sure. But the DuneRover also proved very capable, with enough torque to flatten hills even when carrying over 200 pounds of gear. It can also […]
This toolless modular lever-action wallet is the coolest I’ve stuck to my phone. Remember when I tested the ultra-thin and convenient OhSnap Snap Grip Stand and liked it so much I bought my own? Now, OhSnap has a magnetic lever-action card wallet that can stack with that stand. It’s the coolest wallet I’ve ever stuck […]
It’s a tale as old as last week: OpenAI’s new agent platform, called Dots, is full of cute little guys who can do your bidding. But unlike the ultra-approachable Meta Muse, Dots feel very much like using workplace software that happens to be able to order you a burrito – emphasis on work. OpenAI announced […]
Although I count the original Game Boy as one of my first tech obsessions, I still consider Nintendo’s Game Boy Advance to be my favorite console of all time thanks to its more comfortable horizontal design (for my big hands) and its expansive catalog of excellent 32-bit and 16-bit games. Ayaneo isn’t the first company […]
The original Sonos Ace headphones should have been a triumphant entry into a new product category. Instead, they were overshadowed by Sonos’s disastrous app redesign. And while the original Ace are well built, sound good, and are incredibly comfortable, they weren’t good Sonos headphones: Their flagship feature let you reroute audio from a Sonos soundbar […]
Nothing has been on a bit of an audio tear this year, releasing the solid Headphone A and the surprisingly good Ear 3A earbuds. The Headphone A released at $199, while the earbuds are under $100, leaving room for something fancier. That something is the Nothing Headphone 1 Pro, the company’s new $399 flagship over-ears […]
