by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 22 views
The Galaxy Note 8 will have the best camera Samsung ever made. That’s something I could tell you right off the bat, without even looking at rumors and leaks. That’s because Samsung improves the camera experience on its flagship handsets every year, looking to fulfill its longtime dream to beat Apple in every department. But it just so happens that there’s a new Galaxy Note 8 camera rumor in town that says the phone's dual-lens setup will be better than anyone else’s, implying that it’ll beat the iPhone 7 Plus in this round of the camera wars.

by Guest Chris Smith- 0 replies
- 17 views
Announced in early 2007 and launched exactly 10 years ago today, the original iPhone was perhaps Apple’s biggest gamble. Steve Jobs and Co. took a massive risk by launching a smartphone unlike anything available on the market, but it all paid off. The iPhone quickly turned out to be the device that would reshape the mobile industry. Thanks to the iPhone’s emergence, Android was retooled to fit a touchscreen-based smartphone future. Meanwhile, traditional smartphone makers including Nokia, BlackBerry, Palm, and Microsoft, had to throw in the towel at various points during the iPhone’s 10-year history. Here are the 15 iPhones that Apple launched in these first 10 years. …

Asus’s newest graphics cards definitely aren’t for gamers

A basic graphic card is all a computer needs to display the user interface on a computer screen. For graphics-intensive tasks, such as 4K video, games, VR, and plenty of other apps, you’ll need a more powerful discrete graphics card that can deliver more processing power. However, graphics cards makers are about to launch a new generation of products that can barely connect to an external monitor. Continue reading...

New video shows off every angle of the rumored iPhone 8 design
by Guest Jacob Siegal- 0 replies

We've spent a majority of 2017 poring over dozens and dozens of iPhone 8 leaks. Some have looked surprisingly legitimate while others have been blatant fakes, but something interesting has happened over the past several weeks -- a unified vision of the iPhone 8 has begun to take shape. Unsurprisingly, not all of the leaks line up with one another, but enough do that we've been able to form a relatively complete picture in our heads of what the flagship device will look like. This week, Steve Hemmerstoffer teamed up with Tiger Mobiles to bring that vision to life. Continue reading... Trending right now: Video: Porsche tries to keep up with a Model S and the re…

Apple’s hot new AirPods retail for $159, which is a lot of money. Of course Apple is still six months behind on deliveries, so if you want them in your hands anytime soon you’ll need to pay even more and order them on Amazon, where they’re in stock with Prime shipping. AirPods are terrific, but there are other options out there that sound just as good, fit even better, and cost a small fraction of the price. Check out the SENSO Bluetooth Headphones, which feature great sound, 8 hours of battery life, water-resistance, and noise isolation for just $37.

This new leak might show us exactly what the Galaxy Note 8 looks like

Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 disaster is barely even a distant memory at this point. While some industry watchers were ranting and raving last year about how it would be the company's demise, we reminded readers that consumers have an extremely short memory. The company's Note 7 recall and discontinuation barely even impacted its earnings at all thanks to strong performance in its chip division, and the gorgeous Galaxy S8 and S8+ was more than impressive enough to erase exploding Note 7 phones from most people's memories. It has been nearly a year since Samsung first took the wraps off the Galaxy Note 7, and its successor is almost here. We've seen the leaked specs and BGR …

Wildly popular Google Wifi mesh system is discounted on Amazon

Mesh is the way to go if you want a new Wi-Fi system that blankets your entire home with lightning-fast wireless signal. And if you’re going to buy a new mesh system, there are really only two options we can recommend right now. The first is the AmpliFi HD, which is still our favorite ever since we tested every popular mesh Wi-Fi system earlier this year. The second is the Google Wifi, which is the best-selling mesh system on Amazon right now. It can’t quite match the AmpliFi system’s coverage or consistency, but it’s still an outstanding option and it’s discounted right now on Amazon.
