Sony’s latest gaming headset offers great open-back audio

Sony’s PC-focused InZone brand is covering a lot of ground, now adding open-back headsets to its growing catalog of gaming accessories. The $199.99 H6 Air borrows the comfortable, easy-to-adjust design of the flagship $350 H9 II wireless headset, makes it wired, and pokes a bunch of holes in the ear cups, resulting in an open-back […]

You don’t have to spend more than $50 on a great USB-C dock for your Switch 2

Nintendo seemingly designed its latest console to be a mystery for third-party accessory makers. With the Switch 2, the company changed the wireless protocol for connecting controllers to the new system, as well as how it outputs video over USB-C, making it clear at launch that every third-party manufacturer needed to start over from scratch. […]

Insta360’s Snap is a tiny magnetic phone screen for taking rear-camera selfies

Insta360 just announced the Snap, a new smartphone accessory designed to improve the quality of your selfies. It works like a digital mirror magnetically attached to the back of your Android or iOS smartphone so you can preview and properly frame shots using its more capable rear cameras, while touchscreen functionality lets you control camera […]

I wish this selfie phone case was better for selfies

The Selfix phone case is a classic example of a great idea in theory that falls apart in practice. It’s a case for the iPhone 17 Pro with a circular screen on the back. It mirrors the middle of your main phone screen, making it easier to frame up selfies using your phone’s higher-quality rear […]

I let Gemini in Google Maps plan my day and it went surprisingly well

You may be familiar with Gemini as the thing that’s in every Google service you use – whether you want it or not. While it’s been a constant, sometimes unwelcome presence in Gmail for at least the past year, it’s a relatively new addition to Maps. And you know what? It’s kind of great. To […]

Is the Slate Truck too minimal for its own good?

The first thing you notice about the Slate Truck is its size. It’s small, surprisingly so. In a country where trucks often come with their own zip code, Slate’s pickup is refreshingly puny, measuring 174.6 inches long, 70.6 inches wide, and 69.3 inches tall, with a curb weight of approximately 3,602 pounds (1,634kg). As a […]

This even smaller credit card-sized e-reader has one tragic flaw

There’s a new smallest e-reader in my life. The Xteink X3 is even smaller and thinner than Xteink’s X4 while also improving on the X4 with refined (but still far from great) software, simplified buttons, and an improved magnetic mount on the back. It’s a better compact e-reader than the X4 if extreme portability is […]

A YouTuber channeled his distaste for the PS5’s design into slick console covers

The PlayStation 5’s curvy design is divisive. The Verge’s Andrew Webster called it a “robotic clam” in his 2020 review, which is actually kind of endearing. Personally, I kind of got over hating it sometime during the past almost-six years of its existence. Small form factor PC enthusiast Devyn Johnston is someone who did not […]

The Galaxy S26’s photo app can sloppify your memories

The Google Pixel 9 walked so that the Samsung Galaxy S26 could run. Google introduced AI editing tools to Photos slowly. It started with changes to the background – make the sky more blue, or remove crowds of tourists. Things got weird once the company added natural language requests and let you ask for basically […]

These retractable studded tires might save our roads, ears, and lungs

If you want to feel truly invincible when driving in the snow, you need a set of studded snow tires. They’re illegal in some places, typically restricted to the frigid months of the year in others. Spring for a set, though, and they’ll see you through the worst, slipperiest, snowiest driving conditions you can imagine. […]
