How long you're willing to wait for something depends largely on what exactly it is. Waiting ten minutes for a latte at the coffee shop seems like a hassle, but people will drop hundreds of dollars on smartphones, game consoles, and other gadgets weeks or even months ahead of when they'll be getting their hands on the final product. When it comes to electric vehicles — more specifically, Tesla's just-launched Model 3 — it appears many would-be buyers are realizing their eagerness to own the vehicle has been beaten by their own impatience, and a whopping 63,000 people have now cancelled their Model 3 preorders, according to Elon Musk.

The hard drive in your computer right now — or even your smartphone, for the matter — absolutely dwarfs the storage drives of just a decade ago. The relentless march of technology ensures that digital devices require more and more space to hold growing libraries of music, movies, and photos, and a new breakthrough in data storage by IBM and Sony promises to make your current hard drive feel completely inadequate. The only catch is that it uses a storage technique that you probably thought was long dead: magnetic tape. Continue reading...

But if we needed any more confirmation, a leaked promotion from AT&T itself has proven that yes, the Galaxy S8 Active is real -- and likely coming sometime soon. Continue reading...

Apps like Camera+, Instagram and Snapchat have made it fairly easy to turn decent mobile photos into something a bit more appealing to the eye, but they're a far cry from the retouching efforts of professional photographers.

You’ll need a Samsung DeX Station to unlock this brilliant capability, and you’ll find it on sale right now on Amazon at its lowest price ever.
