On one hand, a mid-gen refresh introducing a more powerful console onto the market is nothing new as both Sony and Microsoft did it just one generation ago. The $700 price tag of the PS5 Pro is a difficult pill to swallow, but that didn't stop pre-orders from instantly selling out and immediately being relisted on eBay for thousands of dollars. The same thing happened to the 30th anniversary edition of the console, a bundle that featured the color scheme of the original PlayStation and had an MSRP of $999.99.

In Pocket-lint tests, an Apple Watch Series 6 that would previously end the day with 10 to 20% or more of battery life using watchOS 10 is now frequently ending the day with less than 10% -- sometimes less than 5%, even after switching on Low Power Mode at 10%. The drain occurs regardless of whether a workout took place.

While vibrant tablets like the Apple iPad and Samsung Galaxy Tab look nice and provide superb tools for artists, they don't provide the same feel as writing on paper, and I haven't been drawn to them for notes. E Ink tablets, on the other hand, typically offer a feel similar to writing on paper while also offering better battery life.

It's almost hard to say why -- it's not like there aren't plenty of alternatives these days, such as Philo or Plex. A lot of smart TVs, such as Samsung's, ship with free TV streaming apps preloaded. It's an easy value-add and source of revenue.

The new update launched alongside the much-anticipated iPadOS 18 and macOS 15 Sequoia releases, marking a big day for the California-based tech giant. iOS 18 introduces a number of new features into the mix, including a customizable Control Center interface, the ability to place app icons anywhere on the home screen, a new dark mode icon pallet, and more. Unfortunately, all the fancy Apple Intelligence AI features the company has been boasting about aren't available at launch, with most of them expected to trickle out over the coming weeks and months. Close to two weeks have passed since the fateful launch day of iOS 18, and it hasn't taken long for impressions and opinions to permeate throughout the internet. As with any other major software update release, even in stable form, a number of bugs and performance issues have cropped up.

Since moving to Florida a few years ago, I've been tweaking my emergency supplies each summer to ensure I have what we may need if a strong hurricane should come through our area. Gone are the days of just stocking some candles, AA batteries, and food, though -- our reliance on technology also extends into emergency kits, partly because of our dependence on smartphones.
