We’ve covered the Naim Mu-So Qb Wireless Music System a few times in the past here on BGR. Long story short, it’s one of our favorite wireless speakers on the planet. It has a modern, high-end look that we absolutely love, and it somehow looks fantastic in any room. More importantly, of course, it pumps out deep, full sound that will knock your socks off. The only real downside is the price, though you clearly get what you pay for in this case. The good news, however, is that there’s currently an Amazon sale that shaves an even $100 off the price of this great speaker. If you’re in the market for a premium wireless music solution, look no further. Here are some key det…

During Microsoft's developer conference earlier this year, the company announced a raft of new features coming to Windows 10 in the "Fall Creators Update." One of the few legitimately useful features was slated to be Timeline, a way to easily swap between Windows PCs, iOS, and Android devices without leaving your work behind. If that sounds familiar, it's because it's rather similar to "Continuity," a feature Apple introduced years ago to help switching between iOS and macOS. It's no bad mark that Microsoft is copying Apple here -- plenty of Windows features have shown up in macOS -- but it is rather awkward that Microsoft's rip-off is going to be delayed by months. …

Samsung currently sells two Galaxy S8 versions, including the regular and the Galaxy S8+. Additionally, a rugged Galaxy S8 Active is expected to launch soon.

Despite the impressive showing from Nintendo at E3 2017, some fans were disappointed that there weren't any other Wii U ports unveiled for the Switch at the event. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe was a big success in April, which led some gamers to suspect that a port of Super Smash Bros. for Wii U would be a surprise announcement at the show in Los Angeles. Sadly, it wasn't meant to be. Although Smash Bros. would undoubtedly be a home run, a tweet from Platinum this weekend gave fans hope that a port of another popular Wii U exclusive might already be in development for the Switch.

We can now say with near certainty that Apple will not release an iPhone 8, iPhone 7s, or iPhone 7s Plus this year, and we explained why in a recent post. Apple does have plans to release three new iPhones in 2017, however, and new rumors pop up each day that help paint an increasingly clear picture. We know that the phones we've been calling "iPhone 7s" and "iPhone 7s Plus" will be upgraded versions of last year's iPhone models, though they do reportedly include some big changes to Apple's hardware design. Then, the third new iPhone that people have been calling the "iPhone 8" will sport a bold top-to-bottom redesign and some fantastic new capabilities. What exactly d…

Over the past few weeks, we've encountered an endless stream of iPhone 8 mockups, renders, and dummy models. Suffice it to say, it's only July and we already have a strong idea of what the iPhone 8 is going to look like, Apple's attempts to double down on product secrecy notwithstanding. From what we can gather thus far, it's a safe bet that the iPhone 8 will feature an edgeless OLED display with extremely thin bezels. Additionally, it's believed that Apple has figured out a way to embed the iPhone's Touch ID sensor into the display itself. Continue reading...

Earlier today, we shared 10 big iPhone 8 revelations offered in a fresh new note by the world's most trustworthy source of Apple leaks.

He regularly shares accurate information surrounding unreleased Apple devices, and on Monday he set his sights on Apple's upcoming new iPhone 8 flagship phone.

Unfortunately, however, there was one detail mixed in there that would be awful new…

The Amazon Echo is a fantastic premium smart speaker with a premium price of $180. Even when it goes on sale, it’s still pretty expensive.

Those virtual bedrooms in the second episode of Season 1 of Black Mirror -- the rooms with different projections on the walls that the occupants could interact with and which surrounded them -- are about to be a real thing, thanks to a Barcelona-based startup. After a few years of work, Broomx has begun releasing the first versions of its MK Player360 VR projection system in Spain. Once it’s set up, the user can control it via a smartphone app and have their entire field of vision inside a room covered by projections. The company wants to basically give users a headset-free VR experience. And Broomx chief communications officer Ignasi Capella says the company has big a…

Jay-Z surprised fans last week when he stealthily dropped a brand new 10-song album titled 4:44 this past Friday. Almost instantly, the album began generating an overwhelming amount of buzz online due to some strategic and thinly veiled lyrical jabs Jay-Z threw at well-known personalities like Kanye West, Kim Kardashian, Future and others. At the same time, the release -- which just so happens to be the 13th of Jay Z's career -- also generated a good bit of frustration as the album was released as a Tidal exclusive. Continue reading...

Months ago, Samsung confirmed that the Galaxy Note 7 will return to stores, without specifying any availability details. Since then, we heard the phone will be sold as the Galaxy Note FE, and that it might hit stores either in June, early July, or late July.

There's plenty of reasons to envy anyone whose job it is to find cool stuff in space. I mean, they get to stare into the cosmos with fancy, priceless tools, and discover things that humanity has never seen before. That being said, there's one thing that definitely wouldn't be so great about finding countless new planets, galaxies, and star formations: coming up with names for them all. A stunning new photo released by NASA shows off a gorgeous galaxy some 400 million light-years away from Earth, but its name is absolutely ridiculous.
