Sony and Nintendo are reportedly feeling squeezed by RAM shortages as demand from AI data centers takes up an increasing share of memory chip production. In response to rising costs and dwindling chip supplies, Sony is considering pushing back the release of its next PlayStation console “to 2028 or even 2029,” according to industry sources cited by Bloomberg, while Nintendo may increase the $450 price of its Switch 2 console this year.That delay would be a considerable divergence from Sony’s usual release schedule, having launched a new console generation every six to seven years since the original PlayStation debuted in…
If you’ve been waiting for an excuse to grab Apple’s latest MacBook Air, this might be it. The 13-inch Apple M4 MacBook Air has dropped to $849 at Amazon, down from its usual $999 starting price, as part of the US Presidents’ Day sales. That’s a healthy $150 saving on a laptop we rated a full five stars in our 2025 review. While we reviewed the larger 15-inch M4 MacBook Air rather than this 13-inch version, the experience is fundamentally the same, bar some obvious differences like overall size, weight, and battery capacity. And that’s very good news. The big…
Samsung has released a new advertisement for its upcoming Galaxy S26 launch that all-but confirms rumors of a new display with a built-in privacy mode. Leaked videos show that the feature could be capable of entirely blacking out content from specific apps or parts of the display when viewed at an angle.The new advert shows a woman reading a racy romance novel on a subway, while curious passengers look over her shoulder. An overlay shows a quick flick of a “Zero-peeking privacy” toggle, which blacks out the titillating content for the nosy onlookers.That might sound similar to existing privacy filters,…
Fans of the late 90s/early 2000s tech trends of bright, vibrant colours will be pleased to hear that Apple’s next cheap MacBook might arrive in a smorgasbord of eye-catching colours – boring grey be damned – though whether or not it’ll make our list of the best budget laptops remains to be seen. Its existence is yet to be confirmed, after all. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman in his Power On newsletter (via Engadget), Apple has been testing a range of new colours for an upcoming low-cost MacBook, including light yellow, light green, blue, and pink. Classic silver and dark grey…
Apple’s most interesting product this year might not actually be the rumoured satellite-powered iPhone 18. Instead, it could be something that lives on your very own front door. According to Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman (via MacRumors), who first mentioned the rumours of a Face ID doorbell back in late 2024, this could be the year that the Cupertino tech giant brings the fight to the likes of the best video doorbells like Ring and co. Granted, 2026 is the absolute earliest predicted release window, but in a world where smartphones are making uninspiring, incremental improvements on the whole, any brand-new Apple…

As someone who enjoys fitness and makes a very average living from covering new technology, it might come as no surprise that I’ve been lucky enough to experience a wide range of fitness and workout gadgetry over the past 20 years. Simple and discreet fitness trackers, such as those from Whoop, as well as more complex fitness watches like those from Garmin, Suunto and Apple, have all, at some point, graced my wrist for extended periods of time. Full disclosure, I settled on Garmin many moons ago for the daily workout tracking, purely because I became so ingrained in the…
I could totally see how OpenClaw could become a huge company. And no, it’s not really exciting for me. I’m a builder at heart. I did the whole creating-a-company game already, poured 13 years of my life into it and learned a lot. What I want is to change the world, not build a large company and teaming up with OpenAI is the fastest way to bring this to everyone. Read the full article here
Enthusiast gaming keyboard tech has made the jump to gaming mice — well, to one gaming mouse so far. The $179.99 Logitech G Pro X2 Superstrike is the first to feature analog sensors that use induction to register clicks faster than microswitches used in many mice.Those sensors allow for a host of cool features beyond just lower latency. There’s a rapid trigger setting, popularized by Hall effect keyboards, that lets them quickly reset after being pressed to receive another input. The sensors in this mouse also let you customize how much you need to press each of the main buttons…
With Apple’s second-gen AirTags now widely available, we’re already seeing inventory of the first-gen model begin to dwindle. Case in point? Amazon is no longer selling a single AirTag, and it’s unclear when — or if — the retailer will restock the first-gen model. Thankfully, you can still grab a four-pack of the first-gen location trackers for around $64 ($35 off) at Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy for Presidents Day, which is $2 shy of the bundle’s best price to date. If you just want one, you can also buy a single tracker at Walmart for $17 ($12 off).If you’re…

This year’s finalists are an impressive collection of oddballs. There’s Amphibian Modules, a modular synth that swaps patch cables for a dish of saltwater. The Gajveena, which combines a double bass with a traditional Indian veena. And Fiddle Henge is, well, a henge made of fiddles. Four green violins are mounted to a bass drum and played with a spinning disk.And then there’s the Demon Box, a chaotic triangle of evil that turns electromagnetic radiation into music. Unlike most of the rest of the finalists, it’s already a commercial product you can purchase from Eternal Research for $999. Beyond turning…
