gizmodo.com James Pero 2026-02-26 08:00:11

2025 There are lots of different types of speakers out there for lots of different kinds of people. You’ve got rugged speakers for the outdoorsmen and doomsday preppers; you’ve got little speakers for anyone that needs to travel light; you’ve got party speakers for anyone that needs to annoy the ever-loving-shit out of their neighbors. And, of course, you have your regular old portable Bluetooth speakers for your everyday carry—sorry for the loaded terminology, pun intended. It’s hard to stand

Bose SoundLink Plus review: here’s your new beach speaker

theverge.com John Higgins 2026-02-26 08:00:00

I’ve been testing the $269 Bose SoundLink Plus, which is the company’s latest portable Bluetooth speaker. It’s durable, attractive, and designed to join you wherever you go, thanks to solid construction and an IP67 rating. You can toss it in a small backpack or clip it to the outside of one for easy transport to the beach or around town. However, at $269, the Plus falls into a no man’s land of Bluetooth speakers. It’s more expensive than similarly sized competitors, including the JBL Charge 6,

In some ways, Anker's new Soundcore Boom 3i is the spiritual successor to that speaker. It's similarly shaped but has more of an outdoor adventure slant with Anker calling it "built for the wild" and billing it as the first Bluetooth speaker with playback in water, as it

Samsung could be ditching the S Pen as you know it — for a very good reason

Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung’s already rumored to be adopting new, active S Pen tracking tech for the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Now a new report claims Samsung will use the same new system on the Galaxy S26 Ultra. While this would result in a thicker stylus, one side effect might be opening the door for Qi2 magnetic support.
