Asus Chromebook CX14 Review: What You Get for $429

wired.com Luke Larsen 2025-12-16 23:30:00

You could certainly make the argument that cheap Chromebooks keep the world running. That's at least true in schools. But for all their importance, not as many new affordable Chromebooks come out each year as you might think. Asus is changing that in 2025 with the Chromebook CX14, a surprisingly pleasant 14-inch laptop that costs just $429 in its higher-end configuration. As far as cheap Chromebooks go, this is among the best. Blending In Photograph: Luke Larsen The CX14 might not look like

15 Best Laptops (2025), WIRED-Tested and Approved

wired.com Luke Larsen 2025-12-19 18:30:00

Other Good Laptops We’ve Tested Dell 14 Plus Photograph: Luke Larsen Dell 14 Plus for $1,100: This is the first laptop in Dell's major rebranding effort, and this one is a follow-up to the Dell Inspiron Plus 14. The Dell 14 Plus (6/10, WIRED Review) is a solidly midrange laptop, meaning it sports a clean but generic design and solid performance, without some of the bells and whistles that make laptops feel premium. The IPS screen is decent, as is the performance and battery life. The only real

Intel's 14A chip process in jeopardy, while cutting jobs and pulling back global expansion

techspot.com Skye Jacobs 2025-12-21 17:18:00

Cutting corners: Intel's next leap in semiconductor manufacturing, known as the 14A process, now hangs in the balance. The company warned that it could slow down or even halt development of the advanced 1.4nm-class technology unless it secures a significant external customer and meets critical project milestones. This admission, made public in a regulatory filing, marks a notable shift for the chipmaker, which has traditionally set the pace for pushing leading-edge technologies but now risks ce

Apple may be Intel’s last hope in the foundry business

In a new research note shared this week, analyst Jeff Pu said that Apple could be among the customers considering Intel’s upcoming 14A process for future M-series chips. Then, came Intel’s Q2 results, and some crucial information about the future of its business. Flat results, tanking stock To say that Intel has been going through a years-long rough patch would be an understatement. Just today, their stock tumbled 8.5% after a weak Q2 report, the first full quarter under the helm of their new

Someone Just Sold Their 2011 Bitcoin for a 17 Million Percent Profit

HP OmniBook X Flip 14 Review: Flip Flop

wired.com Christopher Null 2026-01-07 12:00:00

Convertible laptops continue to grow in popularity, likely because of the exceptional flexibility they offer to folks who want to switch up their use—shape-shifting among traditional notebook, tablet, and tappable entertainment device forms. The latest device to enter this fray is HP’s OmniBook X Flip, available in both 16-inch and 14-inch versions, the latter of which is what I was sent to review. Its poor battery life and awkward design, however, make it fall short of being among the best 2-i

This Killer Dell 14 Plus Deal Changed My Opinion of the Laptop

wired.com Luke Larsen 2026-01-11 17:13:02

When I first reviewed the Dell 14 Plus (6/10, WIRED Review), my main criticism was over the price. At the time, the only configuration available had a terabyte of storage and cost $1,099. That hurt its appeal to me, especially since it would be a more attractive sub-$1,000 laptop if Dell were selling a 512-GB option. But what if that 1-TB model was significantly discounted? Well, that changes everything. The 14 Plus is just $700 right now, directly from Dell, down $400 from its retail price. It

The Yeedi is a big upgrade from almost any robot vacuum on the market right now, with 18,000Pa of suction and a self-cleaning mop roller.

Google finds custom backdoor being installed on SonicWall network devices

Researchers from the Google Threat Intelligence Group said that hackers are compromising SonicWall Secure Mobile Access (SMA) appliances, which sit at the edge of enterprise networks and manage and secure access by mobile devices. The targeted devices are end of life, meaning they no longer receive regular updates for stability and security. Despite the status, many organizations continue to rely on them.

A threat actor has been deploying a previously unseen malware called OVERSTEP that modifies the boot process of fully-patched but no longer supported SonicWall Secure Mobile Access appliances. The backdoor is a user-mode rootkit that allows hackers to hide malicious components, maintain persistent access on the device, and steal sensitive credentials.

Lenovo’s Luxurious Chromebook Plus 14 Has More Power Than It Knows What to Do With

2025 “Excessive” isn’t a qualifier I would use to demean the Lenovo Chromebook Plus 14. It’s merely a statement of fact. It’s a pretty device with surprisingly good audio and more power under the hood than the previous leading contender, the $700 Samsung Galaxy Chromebook Plus. But is taking the crown as king of ChromeOS enough to justify the $650 asking price?
