What do smartphone buyers actually want out of their devices? Chinese electronics manufacturer ZTE wanted to find out, so they created Project CSX, which apparently stands for "Crowd Source X" — I guess the "X" will forever remain a mystery — and set out to design a device based entirely on votes from the general public. The result? A sticky phone that you can slap on the wall and then control hands-free using just your eyes. Wait... what? Continue reading...

Ever since it came out, the NES Classic Edition has been permanently out of stock. Dribbles have come into Best Buy, Amazon Prime Now and Walmart, but consoles have been snapped up by people willing to wait in line at 3AM, in December. While it might be nice for Nintendo's ego to have people scrambling to find the console, it's not great for Nintendo's bottom line. NES Classic Editions have been going at resellers for around $200, which is a lot of revenue forgone for Nintendo. And, let's not even mention all the consoles that might have been sold as Christmas presents, if customers could have found them in store. Continue reading... Trending right now: Googl…

Samsung's Galaxy Note 7 was absolutely the most publicized example of faulty battery technology in the history of mobile phones, but exploding batteries aren't exclusively a Samsung problem. A quick Google search will produce news stories about defective batteries in phones from Apple, LG, Sony, Nokia, and every other major manufacturer. Lithium-ion batteries are simply not a perfectly reliable power source, and while the Note 7 was an extreme example, every manufacturer could benefit from batteries that are able to extinguish themselves if they get a bit too hot. Now, science has delivered exactly that. Continue reading... Trending right now: Google finally exp…

Throughout history, pirates have been known for their insatiable appetite and reckless abandon, but the same can't be said of movie pirates in 2016. Rather, the Hollywood screener leak scene was suspiciously quiet at the end of last year — a dramatic shift from years prior, where multiple massive movies would arrive via torrent before the holidays, or, on occasion, before they even made it to theaters. Yes, pirates have been significantly more cautious in recent months, but over the weekend, the floodgates finally opened as five DVD screeners of blockbuster films from 2016 found their way on to the internet.
