Who has the fastest F1 website (2021)

I once spent an hour creating an F1 lights-out reaction test which went viral and was even played by F1 drivers. That sounds like a brag, and it kinda is, but now whenever I pour days or even weeks of work into something, it just seems so inefficient compared to that time I spent an hour on something that went big. Wait! You're not my therapist! Let's look at another F1 website… This is part 3 in a multi-part series looking at the loading performance of F1 websites. Not interested in F1? It sho

I Want Apple to Steal These Android Camera Features for the iPhone 17

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-31 14:00:13

The iPhone 16 Pro already has a great camera system capable of taking photos so good you'd think they were taken on pro-level mirrorless cameras. I love the quality of all three rear lenses, and while I like recent features, such as the Photographic Styles and Apple's ProRaw image format, I think there's more the company can do to help photographers take their best ever photos. I've spent 14 years reviewing iPhones and Android phones from all brands for CNET, and as a professional photographer

Although wireless charging typically isn’t the most exciting thing to talk about with a new Android phone, that’s due to change very soon. On Wednesday, the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) announced its new Qi 2.2.1 specification, which will be better known going forward as “Qi2 25W.” As the name suggests, Qi2 25W boosts wireless charging speeds to an impressive 25W — a notable step up from the 15W limit that standard Qi2 is currently capped at.

Best Portable Projector for Movies and Gaming Anywhere in 2025

How portable do you really need? Pretty much every projector is "portable" to some degree. Many of the projectors on the best projector list, for example, are small enough to fit in a backpack. They might fill that backpack, but that's their size. If you just want something for the occasional movie night, one of those would be significantly brighter and create a better image. Generally speaking, the smaller the projector, the dimmer it is. How much battery do you need? Most portable projectors
