Users get three 17.3-inch display options to choose from, with both offering different experiences that gamers should enjoy. There is a 4K Mini-LED 120Hz display powered by AUO AmLED technology. The other options are AUO’s superfast FHD 360 Hz display with a speedy 3 millisecond response time, which should provide buttery smooth image performance. The final option is a QHD 2560 x 1440-pixel at 165Hz display, which puts you right in the middle of the other two....

I had a chance to go hands-on with the S 13 at Acer’s New York launch event, and I like the overall design and how much you’re getting for the money, though I could do without the thick bezel around the screen. The S 13 is just 0.57 inches thin and uses diamond cut edging around the sides and touchpad to give it an elegant look. The design uses aluminum on the deck and bottom but a unique nano imprint lithography on the lid to provide texture and a firm grip....

A good mainstream laptop, the Swift 3 offers a 10th Gen Intel CPU with integrated graphics that can get the job done without complications. It also has a few bells and whistles, such as a fingerprint reader. Plus, it’s priced at an aggressive $699, which should be music to the ears of budget-savvy shoppers. However, battery life at less than 8 hours and a dull, dim display should give consumers pause....

We had a chance to spend a few minutes with the $1,699 Switch 7 and were impressed with its sleek, gunmetal gray aluminum chassis. However, you’ll pay a hefty price in both dollars and trade-offs to get the world’s thinnest laptop. The Swift 7’s unibody aluminum chassis really looks and feels like you could slip it into a manila folder. Its 0.35-inch thickness is 0.04 inches less than the 2017 Swift 7, 0....

Retailers are slashing dollars of the AirPods and Google Pixel Buds this weekend.

One detail that got a bit lost in the shuffle was the fact that Apple has opted not to include the U1 chip in the AirPods Max. That is the chip that was first introduced with the iPhone 11 and offers Ultra Wideband (UWB) support for enhanced spatial awareness between devices, something you might appreciate to keep track of your very expensive headphones (via 9to5Mac). Best noise-cancelling headphones in 2020Anker Soundcore Life Q30 reviewBest headphone deals for December 2020...

I wrote about this in my AndaSeat T-Pro 2 review. Taller individuals can really make the most of the ergonomic comfort afforded to them by chairs of this calibre, but as someone on the shorter end of the scale I know first hand the pain of poorly placed cushions and feeling practically swallowed up in a giant chair. The problem is no longer one of style, it’s one of substance, and the Jungle 2 gaming chair hopes to provide something for the oft-forgotten shorter audience with an affordable price tag and footrest....

Whether you are an iPhone owner that has looked longingly at some features enjoyed by your Android-owning friends or you are an Android owner that has been considering jumping ship to iPhone were it not for some missing features, iOS 16 may be just what you were waiting for.

While Apple fans were excited for the release of the rumored 16-inch MacBook Pro with a new design, it looks as if they’re in for a longer wait than we expected. According to a new memo by Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo (from MacRumors via The Verge), the new 16/16.5-inch MacBook will only appear in 2020 or 2021. This is a revision of Kuo’s earlier estimate in a previous memo that the new model would appear this year....

This year’s model offers a bit more screen, at 10.2 inches up from the 9.7-inch panel on the previous generation. The iPad also finally gets support for Apple’s optional Smart Keyboard Cover (something all of its iPads should have). On top of that, the iPad’s battery life got even better this year, despite having a larger screen to illuminate. There are some significant downsides, however. The new iPad inherits the 2018 iPad’s A10 Fusion CPU, and its keyboard and pencil accessories will bump you up to nearly $600....
