I recommend OnePlus' lateset flagship phone over the S25 Ultra - here's why

zdnet.com Kerry Wan 2026-03-17 23:00:14

ZDNET's key takeaways The OnePlus 13 is a snappy, nearly no-compromise phone that starts at $899. A Snapdragon 8 Elite, paired with a 6,000mAh battery and 80W fast charging, is a recipe for endurance success. IP69 is almost excessive, but you'll appreciate it when least expected. $999.99 at Best Buy Purchase the OnePlus 13 from Best Buy and you'll receive a free $100 gift card.

People who do this are generally trying to be polite by not jumping right into the request, like one would in person or on the phone - and that's great! But it's 2022 and chat is neither of those things. For most people, typing is much slower than talking. So despite best intentions, you're actually just making the other person wait

5% Mortgage Rates Are Real. How Homebuyers Are Making It Happen

cnet.com See Full Bio 2026-03-17 22:15:04

Tharon Green/CNET Over the last several years, record-high home prices and high mortgage rates have made homeownership unaffordable. As 30-year fixed mortgage rates remain flat near 7%, homebuyers have been finding creative ways to score rates below what lenders advertise. Last year, nearly half of buyers purchased a home at a rate below 5%, according to Zillow. "With borrowing costs elevated, buyers can take steps to reduce their housing expenses by securing a lower mortgage rate," said Hann

The Humble Programmer (1972)

The Humble Programmer by Edsger W.
