These are significant updates to their product line.  Not having to use a mic all the time is a big plus.  Doubling their max frame rate is also huge.

I don't like to shoot videos for social media, but I see many other ways in which this device would be useful. It is encouraging to see companies going the extra mile to meet consumer demands.

It's nice to know what your computer can do, but I just find it easier to use click around the traditional windows explorer interface until I find what I need.  I feel the same way on my Mac.

I know some of them, just some of them though, not really an expert. It’s always good to learn more. The more you know, the better you become at using your PC.

The ZenBook Pro Duo Looks to Normalize Dual-Screen Laptops

Laptops are exciting again. This is largely due to the current trend of dual screen laptops that are starting to trickle into the market. Most recently, Microsoft just announced the Surface Neo which generated a lot of buzz at their New York event last October 2nd. But that’s going to be released... See more

As much as I'd like a dual-screen laptop, I don't like the trade-offs here.  It won't be easy to adapt to a relocated trackpad.  Having it in the right-hand corner will make it awkward to use.  The battery life is far too short as well.  
Octane
Nice write-up!  I guess it makes sense that adding an extra screen causes the battery to drain more quickly.  Asus should've accounted for that and added one with a higher capacity.

Beautiful! What an amazing setup. It puts mine to shame. You're right - it does seem like a very relaxing and comfortable place to be. I'm jealous of whoever gets to spend time here!

planning to buy it as a gift

This watch looks really nice and I like it generally. I want to buy it as a gift. Personally I’m not very familiar with the brand Garmin so I’m wondering if this brand is good or not. Any reviews from you guys?

That's a really nice looking smartwatch! I like that it looks like an analog watch, very pretty. Garmin is a leader in GPS/activity watches, so you can definitely trust the brand.
Boilerplate - Edited
I have a Garmin smart watch (different model though) and it's great for runners.  I use it to track my mileage and to map my runs.  Garmin makes quality tech so I think it'll make a great gift, Borism.

Gnarbox 2.0

It's the perfect media storage device for #photographers and #videographers who capture the outdoors. I got one when it was featured on #Kickstarter and it's incredibly durable. It fell out of my pack over the ledge of a small cliff one time and it still worked perfectly once I recovered it.... See more
Gnarbox launches version 2.0 of its rugged, portable photo and video backup device - 9to5Mac The original Gnarbox, a small, rugged portable media manager and backup device, was a great idea on paper, but the execution needed work. Today the team from Gnarbox is back with version 2.0 of its hardware. The new Gnarbox features noteworthy improvements over its predecessor, such as a built-in screen for on-device management, and multi-destination […] 9TO5MAC.COM

It does look like a handy device that runs fast and holds tons of material.  If I took photos and videos more often I'd snag one.

I always have a flash drive or two alongside my keys. Do you find it risky to store personal files on them? Anyone could bump into confidential information in case a flash drive gets misplaced.
FancyyFrog
I haven't used flash drives in forever, with Cloud and all your data sharing platforms I feel like I don't really need it anymore. I use a large storage device for my backups but that's it.

If you rarely need to update or install applications on your laptop, then the cloud will do. Both my flash drives have software applications and back up operating systems that I may require from time-to-time. Cloud storage has simplified... See more

I noticed that you can get the version that can't be modified at a cheaper price, but it's totally worth it to splurge for the one with swappable switches.
PX1995
Oh yeah, it's definitely worth the higher price for a customizable gaming keyboard.  I went ahead and pre-ordered one on Logitech's site, but I bet they'll be a little cheaper near Black Friday.
VeryPunny
Very nice!  I believe this is the first of its kind that's meant for a broad range of gamers instead of just the ones who play competitively for a living.

I'm waiting for Alien Isolation to make it to Switch.  It's supposed to come out in 2019 so any day now...unless it gets delayed.

It's been a long time since I bought a new game.  Which of the soon to be released games do you guys recommend I try?

Do you like battle royale games  where the last man standing wins?  If so, try the Apex Legends Bloodhound Edition, which comes out mid-month.

'Tis the season

Personally, I love when a house is all decked out for Halloween! With all the amazing smart tech that's been released in the recent years, Halloween gets spookier every year :) I absolutely love the Addams family doorbell!
10 smart home products that will spook up your Halloween 'Tis the season for ghosts, witches and jack-o'-lanterns. And while decking out your home with Halloween staples like window decals and stuffed scarecrows is perfectly fine, we think it's time to step up your game. Add spook to your entryway with Halloween-colored lights, hide a speaker playing creepy sounds or set up a motion sensor that activates an animated skeleton. CNN.COM

I have a few of the Phillips Hue bulbs and one Hue Bridge and had no idea that I could gear them up for Halloween.  I'm totally going to try this.

I'm glad you shared this article because I wasn't aware that so many of my gadgets could be useful for Halloween.  You'd better believe I'll have that Adams Family chime going before Halloween night.

Surface Neo and Windows 10X Look to Make Perfect Harmony to Give us the Surface Tablet Experience Microsoft Envisions

Surface Pros are tablet-laptop hybrids that tilt significantly towards the laptop side. A lot of its users don’t even use its tablet features.

I love the magnetic wraparound keyboard!  It makes this device super flexible and was a brilliant idea.  I'm interested in getting one of these when they finally come out.
Elijah
That's what draws me to it too. That's much easier than using a virtual keyboard on the screen.  I just wish it would come to market earlier.  
Persefoni
The idea of adding the keyboard is nice, but I agree with the article writer that the keyboard might be too crowded.  Hopefully this device will include their pen.

Are Amazon's Echo Frames Doomed?

Why would Amazon sell the glasses only via an invitation? It may be too early to write them off now, but the writer raises valid concerns around its design and specifications.
Ankara
It was a bad idea to ignore the iOS market, and this is something that the company may have to reconsider. It may be too early to write the glasses off since Amazon has a chance to redeem itself.
