by Guest Maren Estrada- 0 replies
- 22 views
Earlier this week, we shared news of a limited-time sale with our readers that covered an awesome pair of Bluetooth earbuds that feature terrific sound and a built-in heart rate monitor. The response was tremendous, with dozens of people emailing us to say thanks. Since we got such great response, we wanted to put these hot in-ear headphones in front of you one last time before this sale is done. For one more day on Amazon, you can pick up the AUKEY Bluetooth Headphones with Heart Rate Monitor for just $19.99 if you use the coupon code AUKBTH32 at checkout. That’s 50% off their normal selling price on Amazon, and a whopping 60% off full retail. Here are some highlights…

You’re going to want the next big T-Mobile Tuesdays deal
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies
- 18 views
T-Mobile recently launched a new rewards program, T-Mobile Tuesdays. The idea is to get some kind of gift or freebie every week, normally free movie tickets, a free coffee or free pizza. But to celebrate the restart of baseball season (we assume), T-Mobile is gifting a free subscription to MLB TV to all its customers, starting in April. Continue reading...

Every so often, a film comes along that waylays its genre's boundaries and becomes something else entirely. Logan is that film -- a thought-provoking character drama disguised as a superhero movie. The genre will never be the same. Continue reading...

There's a secret way to get your hands on a Nintendo Switch TODAY, and no one knows about it
by Guest Maren Estrada- 0 replies

For Nintendo fans, the release of the hot new Nintendo Switch video game console was years in the making. The Nintendo Wii was nothing short of a phenomenon, introducing all sorts of new demographics to gaming. Nintendo tried to recapture the magic when it released the Wii U back in 2012, but the console was a complete failure due to a lack of imagination and an even worse lack of games. While the Nintendo Switch does suffer from the same problem with games for the time being, it most certainly does not lack imagination or potential. Early reviews have been outstanding, and gamers who have managed to get their hands on a Switch already seem to love it. But since the co…

[Deal] Add a second number on your phone from Hushed for $25!
by Guest Justin Herrick- 0 replies

Many people want a second number, but they don’t want a second phone. It’s probably better to avoid using your personal number for work, while dating, and on select public services where you don’t know who you’re communicating with. Your number is a piece of highly sensitive information. So you shouldn’t just hand it out […] Come comment on this article: [Deal] Add a second number on your phone from Hushed for $25!

With so many leaks for the upcoming Galaxy S8, it’s hard to imagine any surprises when Samsung takes the stage in New York City on March 29. One curious bit of information that just came out, however, points to a trademark filing Samsung submitted for the phrase “Infinity Display.” What could this mean for the […] Come comment on this article: Samsung trademarks “Infinity Display” for the Galaxy S8 Visit TalkAndroid News via TalkAndroid

Get ready to make calls with Amazon’s Alexa
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies

Amazon's hugely popular Alexa virtual assistant is already everywhere, and given her similarities to Apple's Siri and Google Assistant, it was only a matter of time before she ended up connecting our phone calls, too. A new report from Recode suggests that's exactly what is in the works at Amazon HQ, and that the company is preparing to debut at least one call-capable Alexa-enabled device by the end of 2017.

This enormous modded Super Nintendo is officially cooler than the Switch
by Guest Mike Wehner- 0 replies
- 20 views
Nintendo released the Switch portable/console hybrid today, and it's sold out at pretty much every retailer you can imagine. That's great, and I look forward to seeing how well it is supported (or not) for the months and years ahead, but there's no denying that Nintendo's old systems are really the cream of the crop. The Super Nintendo was never meant to be a portable, but one intrepid modder has done the seemingly impossible and turned his console — which is, for the record, a Super Famicom — into a portable system which should elicit equal amounts of joy and horror.

I just bought this $72 wireless printer and I absolutely love it
by Guest Maren Estrada- 0 replies
- 20 views
Shopping for a printer can be extremely difficult, even for seasoned tech veterans like us. That's why we spent more than a month researching and testing a wide range of different printers before landing on the perfect model. It wasn't easy, but we couldn't be happier with the printer we landed on: the HP Envy 5540 Wireless All-in-One Photo Printer. This printer/copier/scanner has all of the features you could want in a home printer, including mobile printing capability so you can print directly from your iPhone or Android phone. It also allows you to send a file to a special email address and it'll print remotely, or you can use Google's cloud printing solution to print …

The Galaxy S8 will have an ‘Infinity Display’
by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 18 views
One of the new smartphone trends this year is going to be bigger screens. Well, that was true for previous years as well, but this time around handset makers are selling handsets that feature larger screens but smaller overall footprints. LG, a company that’s been heading in that direction for a few years, was the first to introduce a brand new device that features a large display in a rather compact body. Unveiled at Mobile World Congress in Spain, the LG G6 features a “FullVision” screen that also introduces a new 18:9 screen ratio. But LG will not be the only company pursuing all-screen designs this year. The Galaxy S8 and iPhone 8 coming later this year are also ex…

Scientists code a movie, PC software, and $50 Amazon gift card onto DNA

DNA makes us what we are, and it holds a ton of information about each and every one of us. Scientists have been slowly making progress on getting it to hold other kinds of information, too, and some brand new research shows just how powerful DNA storage can be. A scientist duo from Columbia University, working with the New York Genome Center, have managed to pack a whole bunch of data onto DNA molecules and then reliably retrieve it in perfect condition.

Apple very quietly launched a brand-new iPhone model
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies

When the iPhone 6 debuted, there was no 32GB option in the lineup. As was standard for the time, it came in 16/64/128GB configurations. Since then, Apple has bumped the base storage options on new iPhones to 32GB, but the 16GB iPhone 6 (and iPhone SE) have remained on sale. So it's a little unusual that Apple has put a 32GB iPhone 6 on sale in China in a gold color. What's even stranger is that the phone isn't available through Apple retail channels, but instead only through Taiwan Mobile. Continue reading...

5 AirPlay wireless speakers under $100
by Guest Maren Estrada- 0 replies

Apple's high-quality AirPlay streaming protocol is pretty awesome. It's wonderfully reliable and the audio quality is far better than Bluetooth, but there is one problem: most AirPlay speakers tend to be on the pricier side. Not everyone wants to pay top dollar for an expensive Airplay-compatible speaker like the Sonos Play:3. If you want a high-quality audio streaming experience to go along with your iPhone or iPad and you don't want to spend a lot of cash, you've come to the right place. Below, you'll find five different AirPlay speakers being sold right now on Amazon for less than $100 each. Continue reading... Trending right now: The first ‘Deadpool 2’ tease…

Uber uses a fake app and digital surveillance to evade government officials in some cities
by Guest Chris Mills- 0 replies
- 18 views
A new NYT report sheds light on how Uber, a transportation company that has recently become a scandal machine, has been evading government enforcement agencies in cities where it is illegal. According to the report, Uber uses a variety of methods, including human inspection of logs and stalking social media, to identify accounts being used by government officials. Once it identifies those accounts, it adds them to a tool called "Greyball." Once those government officials open up a greyballed account, the Uber app shows them a screen full of phantom cars, or no cars at all. That means the officials can't summon a real Uber car, and subsequently can't give the driver a f…

Galaxy S8 preorder date rumored to be April 10th

- 16 views
Even though we spent the last year running around the world's largest mobile phone tradeshow, we still don't actually know when you'll be able to hold a Galaxy S8 in your cold, sweaty hands. We know that the launch event is going to be in March, but assuming that Samsung doesn't give the entire world apology Galaxy S8s then and there to make up for the Note 7, we're going to be waiting a little longer to get the actual phones. A new report from The Investor cites industry sources as saying that the pre-orders will open on April 10th, just two weeks after the official announcement date. Pre-orders tend to precede the official retail availability by a week or two, so we …
