Can my favorite Game Boy gadget tell fake cartridges from real?
Can my favorite Game Boy gadget tell fake cartridges from real?

The $50 Epilogue GB Operator has a brand-new trick up its sleeve. In addition to backing up Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance cartridges and saves to a PC (and writing saves back to carts again!), it can now plug into your phone with a brand-new Retrace app for Android and iOS. […]

My brief, weird time with the Samsung TriFold
My brief, weird time with the Samsung TriFold

I was ready to give up on the Galaxy Z TriFold. We had a strong case for getting a refund from the eBay seller – they’d claimed it was the version sold in Taiwan, but the phone that arrived at my door came with a Chinese serial number. That meant no Google services and lots […]

DJI’s Avata 360 is a more functional, flexible 360 drone
DJI’s Avata 360 is a more functional, flexible 360 drone

DJI’s Avata 360 finds the company at an odd time. For one, it’s been beaten to the punch – upstart Antigravity’s A1 became the first 360-degree drone when it launched last December, and DJI is playing catchup (and filing lawsuits). But this is also the last DJI drone you may ever be able to legally […]

Gemini task automation is slow, clunky, and super impressive
Gemini task automation is slow, clunky, and super impressive

I’ve been testing out Gemini’s new task automation on the Pixel 10 Pro and the Galaxy S26 Ultra, which for the first time lets Gemini take the wheel and use apps for you. It’s limited to a small subset right now – a handful of food delivery and rideshare services – and it’s still in […]

Belkin’s wireless HDMI adapter freed me from a long annoying cable when I travel
Belkin’s wireless HDMI adapter freed me from a long annoying cable when I travel

I’ve never been comfortable logging into streaming services on a hotel or Airbnb TV. My alternative for watching our favorite shows on a big screen is traveling with a 10-foot HDMI cable and a USB-C-to-HDMI adapter for directly connecting our mobile devices to an unfamiliar TV. Belkin’s wireless HDMI adapter will let me leave that […]

Matic, my current top pick for the best robot vacuum, just got a big update. The unique-looking floor bot now works with Google Home and Apple Home, with support coming through the smart home standard Matter.

Hands on with Aqara’s new Matter-compatible camera
Hands on with Aqara’s new Matter-compatible camera

The first Matter camera is here – sort of. Camera support came to the smart home standard last year, and Aqara’s Camera Hub G350 is the first to support it. The G350, which was announced at CES, launched this week and is a pan-and-tilt indoor security camera with up to 4K video resolution. Today, the […]

Asus’ new open earbuds are a wonderful companion for handheld gaming
Asus’ new open earbuds are a wonderful companion for handheld gaming

The Cetra Open Wireless aren’t like most other gaming earbuds. They’re large, with an open-style design that rests just outside of your ears, letting game audio mix with sounds in your environment. These allow for immersion, but only if your environment is quiet enough. And turning them up might let those nearby hear what you’re […]

Oppo’s new foldable isn’t quite creaseless, but it’s pretty damn close
Oppo’s new foldable isn’t quite creaseless, but it’s pretty damn close

The first thing most people seem to do when they try out a foldable phone I’m reviewing is look for the crease in the screen. In the case of Oppo’s Find N6, it might take them a while. Oppo claims that the Find N6, launching in full next week on March 17th, has the world’s […]

The best Switch 2 controller just got better (and a little worse)
The best Switch 2 controller just got better (and a little worse)

Crowning the EasySMX S10 the best Switch 2 controller last fall was easy. The $60 wireless gamepad, which is often well below $50, mimics or improves on many of the $90 Switch 2 Pro controller’s best features. The S10 has great-feeling rumble in games, TMR joysticks that will last longer than Nintendo’s, plus amiibo support, […]
