Best Wireless Earbuds of 2025

Master & Dynamic MW09: Master & Dynamic headphones and earbuds have always featured unique, eye-catching designs that include premium materials like aluminum, sapphire glass and Kevlar. Its latest MW09 flagship true wireless earbuds ($349) look pretty similar to its earlier MW08 buds but have some upgrades on the inside that deliver better performance, particularly when it comes to noise cancellation. The earbuds sound great but are mysteriously out of stock everywhere, so we dropped them from t

The Odds of a City-Killing Asteroid Hitting Earth Keep Rising

An asteroid discovered late last year is continuing to stir public interest as its odds of striking planet Earth less than eight years from now continue to increase. Two weeks ago, when Ars first wrote about the asteroid, designated 2024 YR4, NASA’s Center for Near Earth Object Studies estimated a 1.9 percent chance of an impact with Earth in 2032. NASA’s most recent estimate has the likelihood of a strike increasing to 3.2 percent. Now that’s not particularly high, but it’s also not zero. Ars

Pomera's typewriter smashes crowdfunding target, brings distraction-free writing to the US

Something to look forward to: Another device is joining the list of distraction-free digital typewriters. The Pomera D250 has been available in Japan since 2022, where it's proven very popular. Now, thanks to a successful crowdfunding campaign, it's coming to the US for writers who prefer not having the entire internet distracting them. There have been numerous Pomera models since the first was released in 2008, and the DM-250 is said to be the best yet. As with other devices of this ilk, the

Google Messages preps a mini search makeover (APK teardown)

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google is working on several tweaks to the search interface in Google Messages. Perhaps the most notable change is that search filters now make better use of empty space.

Now, it looks like Google is preparing a search UI tweak for an upcoming version of the app. Authority Insights story on Android Authority. Discover You're reading

This Google Photos feature is coming to more smart TVs, tablets, and… fridges?

Robert Triggs / Android Authority TL;DR Google Photos will soon let you display your albums as a slideshow on more devices. Google plans to expand availability to more smart TVs, tablets, fridges, and photo frames. The feature is currently available on the Nest Hub, Nest Hub Max, Chromecast devices, Google TV and Android TV devices, and select photo frames. Google Photos has a neat feature that lets you display an album as a slideshow on a few smart home devices while idling or in ambient mo

The least used app on my Android phone is… the Google app?!

Andy Walker / Android Authority I spent several hours rummaging through the Google app for a recent opinion piece detailing its excellent Saved feature. However, I don’t use this app often, if ever. This got me thinking: why is the Google app still around, and why does Google insist on keeping it when a search widget from Chrome could essentially replace everything I use it for? While I’m sure many users (including myself, initially) feel that it’s a vestigial piece of software from Android ve

The Lenovo Legion Go S (with Windows) makes so many mistakes I can’t figure out how we got here

Lenovo Legion Go S with Windows The Windows-powered Legion Go S isn't a total bust from Lenovo. The display is great, and so are the speakers. There are also some nice software features, including fully customizable buttons. However, there are so many confusing choices here that ruin the experience: the quad-core Ryzen Z2 Go chipset leaves much to be desired, the whole thing is too heavy, there's no "gotta have it" feature, and poor hardware decisions (like the tiniest trackpad on Earth) make it

I doubled my PC's storage with this thumb-sized accessory. Here's how it works

ZDNET's key takeaways PNY 1TB CS3150 M.2 storage drive, available for around $115. Overall, it's a fast M.2 drive with active cooling to keep running temperatures below the maximum rated temperature. The heatsink makes the drive rather bulky, and you will need a 4-pin fan header on the motherboard to power the fans. $169.99 at B&H Photo-Video In the not-so-distant past, the solution for speed-boosting an aging and sluggish PC was to add more RAM or upgrade the processor. Now, the way to sail

Oura's CEO wants its smart ring to be the doctor in your pocket

ZDNET I've been wearing an Oura Ring for over a year. Whenever I'm asked about my thoughts on the device, I say that the Oura Ring is one of the few products that nearly always does exactly what it claims to do. The ring can predict when you're about to get sick, catch variations in your heart rate, provide an accurate list of ingredients to log after you take a photo of your breakfast, and document your physical and emotional stress in real time. I'll never forget how it captured my sky-high

Netflix's 'Leaving Soon' Label Is Enough to Give Some Very Random Titles a Major Boost

Every week, Netflix reveals its Top 10 lists, ranking its most-viewed movies and TV shows. While many of these top titles are expected, others can surprise; here's where we try to make sense of those seemingly random hits. "I read this post on Reddit" is always a risky way to start a conversation, but here I go… I recently saw a Reddit thread from a few years ago where a poster suggested that Netflix create an entire category on its homepage to showcase content that's leaving the platform soon.

Tubi Is Not the Next Netflix. It’s Something Better

Here’s a fun tidbit to toss out at your next dinner party: Tubi is home to the biggest content library of all the streamers. That’s right, the one-time underdog of streaming now claims it has more content than Netflix. Tubi has over 275,000 titles from every era and genre of film and television. At least, that's what the company says; it’s nearly impossible to verify given the library’s size. Offerings span cult classics (Cooley High), ’90s heist movies (The Thomas Crown Affair), and everything

Valar Atomics comes out of stealth with $19M and a pilot reactor site

Companies developing small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) have raised more than $1.5 billion in the past year, as tech companies hunger for power to train AI models and governments decide to commit to the industry. For example, X-energy raised $700 million this month, and Paris-based Newcleo raised $151 million last year, and one would be remiss to not mention the $700 million invested into Oklo, NuScale and Nano Nuclear for similar projects in the U.S. While nuclear fusion still looks relati

Google Lens powering new Screen Search in Chrome for iOS

Google is more deeply integrating Lens visual search into Chrome for iOS with a new Screen Search capability that takes after Circle to Search on Android. Meanwhile, Google Lens can now recognize more unique images. Chrome on the iPhone and iPad already has an instance of Lens that lets you take a picture or analyze a screenshot. You can now “Search Screen with Google Lens” as you’re browsing the web or watching a video. Instead of manually taking a screenshot, you’ll find that new shortcut in

The Thing and the Human Torch Are Coming to Marvel Rivals on Feb. 21

The team will be in full force on Feb. 21 as the Thing and the Human Torch will make their debut in the hero shooter. Developer NetEase Games confirmed the addition of the two heroes on Tuesday on its Dev Talk blog. The characters' introduction to the game will conclude the first half of season 1 and bring with it some major balanc

‘For You’ feeds are not for creators, Patreon says

Patreon has continued on its crusade against algorithmic feeds with its latest State of Create report, a look at trends in the creator economy based on internal data, and it’s an effort creators can get behind. In its survey of 1,000 creators and 2,000 fans, the membership platform reported that 53% of creators think it is more difficult to reach their followers today than five years ago. This doesn’t come as a surprise. Celebrities have fought against Instagram’s video-centric, algorithmic fe

Killer Asteroid Could Be Headed for Some of the World's Most Populous Cities

According to NASA's Jet Propulsion Lab, near-Earth asteroid 2024 YR4 now has a 3.1 percent chance of colliding with our planet on December 22, 2032. That makes it the highest-threat asteroid ever detected, as Euronews reports. As of late January, the probability was sitting at just 1.3 percent, which then rose to 2.1 percent last week before rising yet again. Worse yet, the space agency suggests the asteroid could hit densely populated areas of our planet — if it were to make an impact just un

Google Meet will now create your post-meeting to-do list

Edgar Cervantes / Android Authority TL;DR Google Meet is rolling out a new “next steps” feature that uses AI to identify and organize follow-up tasks discussed during meetings.

Apple says Severance has become its most popular show ever, overtaking Ted Lasso

Via Deadline, Apple TV+ says that Severance has become its most popular show ever, even overtaking its hit comedy Ted Lasso. The service recorded more unique viewers for Severance than any other title in its history, based on viewership in the first month after season two premiered.

Russian Groups Target Signal Messenger in Spy Campaign

Multiple Russia-aligned threat groups are actively targeting the Signal Messenger application of individuals likely to exchange sensitive military and government communications related to the country's war with Ukraine. For now, the activity appears limited to persons of interest to Russia's intelligence services, according to researchers at Google's Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG), who spotted it recently. But the tactics the threat actors are using in the campaign could well serve as a bluep

Broken legs and ankles heal better if you walk on them within weeks

Twenty years ago my husband, Mark, broke his left ankle and was in a cast and on crutches for nearly two months. Last year he broke the other ankle. But this time, after surgery, his doctor surprised us by instructing Mark to walk on it two weeks later. It turns out the standard advice to stay off a broken leg bone for at least six weeks is based less on scientific evidence and more on cultural caution—physicians like to play it safe. But now studies show that complications are no more likely w

Now We Know Exactly When The Last of Us Season 2 Is Coming

It’s been a couple years waiting for the return of HBO’s seminal adaptation of Naughty Dog’s post-apocalyptic, cinematic trauma simulator The Last of Us—not unlike waiting for the next chapter in a video game saga. But now, after a long, long time, we finally know: The Last of Us is back April 13. In a new press release HBO confirmed that the seven-episode sophomore season will begin just a couple of months from now in the 9 p.m. ET/PT slot on the cable network on Sunday, April 13, with episode
