A few days ago, news broke out that Samsung is working on a Galaxy S8 feature that’s unlike anything seen on an iPhone. Samsung is still regarded as a fast follower when compared to Apple’s iPhone, and some of the Galaxy S8’s main features are already available on iPhone (dual camera, 3D Touch, and no headphone jack) or have been rumored to appear on a future Apple device long before the first Galaxy S8 leaks popped up (all-screen design, no home button, and fingerprint sensor embedded in the display). But the Galaxy S8 might have an exciting feature that Apple may never bring to the iPhone. Continue reading... Trending right now: Look at what happens to a Je…

Amazon doesn't even have a formal presence at CES 2017 but you'd never know it by the number of times Alexa is being mentioned on the show floor. She's in speakers, baby monitors, and now she's sharing the stage with Ford as the automaker is finally showing off how she'll act behind the wheel. Ford's SYNC 3 AppLink software is going to make it possible to access Alexa's ever growing list of skills and voice commands while you're behind the wheel, and even control some of your car's functions while you're sitting in your living room.

Believe it or not, TV news is still a thing. No, seriously. Local television networks across the country regularly broadcast reports covering all sorts of events. Of course, you don't watch them because you have a smartphone and you know about everything these local stations cover long before their reports ever air. How? You get your news from the internet, so you know about things when they happen. Of course, being stuck in the past isn't always a bad thing. After all, you won't see bloopers like this while you're reading the news in your Twitter feed — or even while you're reading the fake news in your Facebook feed. Continue reading...

U.S. Navy-trained dolphins are being tapped to save the world’s smallest porpoise, an extremely elusive creature that is in the verge of extinction in the Gulf of California.

When the third season of Sherlock wrapped up back in 2014, the show's future was uncertain. As big a success as the show had been for both the BBC and PBS, Benedict Cumberbatch (Sherlock Holmes) and Martin Freeman (John Watson) were as busy as they had ever been, which made scheduling difficult. It took a bit longer than usual, but following a three year break, the show finally returned for its fourth season on New Year's Day with "The Six Thatchers" — the first of three new episodes that will air this month.

Innovation in the TV space has come a long ways in a remarkably short period of time. Not too long ago, TV viewers keen on enjoying top-notch content that didn't air on one of the major broadcast networks were effectively forced to sign up for frustratingly expensive cable packages. In 2017, the TV landscape is markedly different and much more consumer-friendly. Not only can TV lovers get their fix by watching original content from standalone streaming services like Netflix and HBO Now, but we're starting to see wallet-friendly cable options begin to take shape as well.

Samsung doesn't bring any of its occasionally-combustible smartphones to CES, but the company is big enough that there's still a whole bunch of new tech to gawk over. Samsung just took us through a whirlwind tour of some of its best new products, including a tiny cable, a big TV, and Chromebooks that you might actually want to buy. Also, a Samsung exec was worryingly enthusiastic about laundry for a solid 10 minutes on stage. But you probably don't want to watch that. Continue reading...

CES 2017 has already produced plenty of interesting announcements, but leave it to Samsung to throw the tech world a curve ball with a tantalizing teaser of its next insane idea: a TV that you never turn off. Samsung calls it the Lifestyle TV, though that may only be a placeholder name under the moniker is finalized — it was previously listed on CES material as being called the "Samsung Frame," so who knows — and it's a video display that is a TV when you want it to be, but when you walk away it turns into something else entirely.

Smartphones are getting more and more built-in storage these days, but that doesn’t change the fact that many users are still stuck with older versions that have inadequate storage.
