Polestar 2 first drive: a sporty EV with Android Automotive inside

[ad_1] Cargo capacity is at a premium inside the vehicle, with just 15.5 cubic feet of storage space unless you fold the rear seats down. That said, if you’re looking to haul groceries rather than a whole lot of ass, this might not be the EV for you. You might instead consider the Hyundai Kona […]

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra review: Unabashedly over the top

[ad_1] Life with the S Pen There’s no shortage of amazing Android phones you can get for less than the price of a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. The OnePlus 8 Pro clocks in under $1,000. Sony’s oddball Xperia 1 ii, with a 4K screen and the fastest smartphone camera I’ve ever used, goes for about […]

Samsung Galaxy Watch 3 review

[ad_1] I was a little worried when my colleague Chris Velazco came back from an early hands-on demo session saying that the Watch 3’s rotating bezel was lighter and smaller than the original’s and that it didn’t clunk into each notch as definitively as before. But I was relieved when I used the wheel myself. […]

Masterbuilt Gravity Series 560 review: A versatile smart charcoal grill

[ad_1] Like pellet grills, a fan helps maintain the desired cooking temperature. On the 560, it blows air upward, into the bottom of the charcoal hopper to keep the heat going and circulate it into the main cooking area. If you have the temperature set high enough for searing, you’ll see flames too. There are […]

Jabra Elite 45h review: Feature-packed $99 headphones

[ad_1] You can also apply further EQ tweaks or employ a collection of audio presets typically found inside the Sound+ app. Because you can connect multiple devices at the same time, you can apply your changes from the app on your phone while listening to music on your laptop. That dual connection also makes taking […]

Gigabyte Aero 17 HDR review: Bigger and brighter content creation machine

[ad_1] As usual for Aero laptops, the Aero 17 HDR has tons of ports, including an SD UHS II (but not UHS III) card reader, three USB 3.2 Gen1 Type A ports, ethernet, microphone, headphone, HDMI, USB-C/Thunderbolt 3, mini DP1.4 and HDMI 2.0. They’re all positioned toward the front of the laptop, unfortunately, so cables […]

OnePlus Nord Review | Engadget

[ad_1] Design Mat Smith, Engadget Let’s set aside the fact that the OnePlus Nord isn’t launching in the US. Even if it’s not, mid-range phones are having a moment on both sides of the Atlantic. From the iPhone SE to Samsung’s Galaxy A series and Google’s Pixel 3a — and soon the Pixel 4a — […]

Sony ZV-1 review: A portable vlogging camera with few weaknesses

[ad_1] While you can use a Gorillapod or other portable mini tripod, Sony offers the ZV-1 in a kit with a shooting grip (along with a 64GB SD card). That gives you controls for things like zooming and recording, while converting into a mini-tripod via the retractable legs. I didn’t get a chance to use […]

Blipblox After Dark is a kid’s synth for adults

[ad_1] The new more serious look also comes with some more serious sounds and synth features. The core functionality is the same — you turn it on, it immediately starts spitting out melodies and riffs while you twist knobs and push buttons to mangle the sound. There are a slew of new oscillator and modulation […]

‘Paper Mario: The Origami King’ is the ideal ‘Animal Crossing’ break

[ad_1] The Origami King plays with the texture and malleability of paper in brilliant ways, mixing 3D animations and realism with 2D visuals. Mario’s journey spans a handful of large, unique maps that players can explore freely once they’re unlocked, complete with puzzles, secrets and lots of confetti. Confetti is one of the main mechanics […]
