Worthy rival to AirPods?

Not only are they cheaper than the AirPods, but they also feature hands-free Alexa and Bose noise reduction. I would consider them a direct rival, even though Apple has announced noise-cancelling AirPods Pro.

Optimizing your PC's performance

From this list, all I have been able to do well is use strong passwords. Would anyone still be using Windows XP in 2019? It is easy to forget the small tasks like clearing junk files and removing unnecessary files from the hard drive.

The October 15th event

Was the Face ID Apple's initial idea? Either way, the Pixel 4 will now feature the face unlock technology and not a fingerprint sensor. It will also be interesting to see how the hand gesture commands will work (Project Soli technology). What is your take-home from this event?

Is this device worth the price?

I think there's everything to love about the Lenovo IdeaPad S940 from being light, having an excellent UHD HDR display and useful prvacy and productivity features. All the same, the company should have invested on a powerful battery.

Was the Air Power wireless charger deemed to fail?

A lot of people were looking forward to its launch and news of its cancellation will be received with mixed reactions. Apple announced it in September 2017 but kept postponing the launch. I still feel like the company will continue to work on this project, and give us a wireless solution sometime... See more

Ever seen the need of a Wi-Fi range extender?

All of us probably know that the farther you move away from the router, the weaker the signal becomes. I have an ethernet cable that I use whenever the signal becomes weak but a range extender would be much more convenient. My pick would be the D-Link DAP-1520 Wi-Fi Range Extender (AC750) that's...

The new Microsoft Edge browser

Most people don't use Windows browsers for their own reasons so hopefully, the final product will be one that appeals to a lot of people. Microsoft moving to Chromium leaves Mozilla and Safari as the only remaining Chromium-free browsers.

5G is becoming a reality with each passing day

Most people thought that the rollout of the 5G technology was going to take longer than expected, even with the wars around the likes of Huawei taking center stage. Would it be more beneficial if more and more companies produced more 5G-enabled phones?

Rechargable batteries are the way to go

Buying a fresh pack of batteries every other time is really expensive in the long run and just like other products out there, brand alone isn't the only yardstick one can use. Are there any other good brands that you can recommend? I find Energizer batteries to be reliable.

Which one do you prefer?

Streaming is the obvious choice for most people but more often than not, the major hindrance becomes the connection speeds. After all, who wants to watch from a website that keeps buffering? On the other hand, no one always wants to keep downloading media as the PC could easily run out of hard... See more

Creating a huge platform for hackers

People's lives are definitely getting better, productive and more enjoyable but it almost feels like the security concerns were never quite addressed, from the onset. Somehow, I agree that all this can be attributed to the smaller companies (with no public reputation to protect) crowding the... See more

Will this win back the kids?

The social media giant dominated the scene for quite some time and it almost seems like Instagram and Snapchat have 'run' away with the kids. Zuckerberg already acquired Instagram, but his offer of $3 billion for Snapchat, was rebuffed. Who knows, maybe this will be oneattempt that wins back the... See more
