Lenovo Yoga AIO 32i (32ILL19) Desktop Review: An Elegant All-in-One That Runs Into Some Trouble

7.2 / 10 SCORE Lenovo Yoga AIO 32i (32ILL19) Pros Big, bright display Strong single-core performance Solid graphics from RTX 4050 Cons More expensive than non-AIO setups Effectively zero upgrade options Some weird glitches The Lenovo Yoga AIO 32i (32ILL19) may be a good AIO desktop computer, but it's pricey. It has a big, bright display offering a colorful 4K picture and has surprisingly potent hardware -- and it runs quietly. Even the audio system is good with its quad-speaker setup. But

What Does 'Awe Dropping' Even Mean? Decoding Apple's iPhone 17 Event Announcement

Apple's big fall event is less than a week away, and we're still puzzling over the tagline and animated logo that accompanied invitations to the Sept. 9 "Awe dropping" gathering. Is the iconic Apple logo on fire? Does it portend a new heat-sensing feature of the Vision Pro that will make you feel like a Predator hunting prey through the jungle? Or maybe a designer at Apple just came up with a cool-looking effect and thought it would be fun to use it? Nah, the company has a history of enigmatic

ReMarkable Paper Pro Move Review: A Small Yet Mighty Digital Notebook

I love a list. I can happily write the same to-do list in six different places in a single day (good thing I test digital notebooks and paper planners). I often find myself rewriting the little brainstorms in my Notes app because the ideas are still banging around in my brain, asking to be let free onto a page, digital or not. But not every brainstorm or list needs a full-size page. That's where ReMarkable's latest digital notebook comes in. The reMarkable Paper Pro Move ($449) takes the same t

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect Lets You Place Speakers Anywhere

For years, there have been just two options for better TV sound: A traditional, AV receiver-based home theater system or a soundbar. The AV receiver route is undeniably the best way to go for a truly cinematic experience, but only the most diehard audiophiles are willing to deal with hulking metal boxes, yards of speaker wire, and a minimum of five speakers (plus a subwoofer) that must be placed just so. That’s before you delve into the often arcane settings needed for peak performance. Soundb

Remarkable’s new digital notepad is smaller than a paperback

is a senior reporter who’s been covering and reviewing the latest gadgets and tech since 2006, but has loved all things electronic since he was a kid. A year after Remarkable introduced its Paper Pro digital notebook with an 11.8-inch color E Ink screen, the company is following up with a smaller version that prioritizes portability. The new Remarkable Paper Pro Move feels like what you’d be left with if you were to snap last year’s Paper Pro in half over your knee. With a 7.3-inch screen, it’s

The UK’s largest energy supplier has created its own EV charger

The UK’s larger energy supplier, Octopus Energy, is launching its own EV charger.

Brand new unicorn IQM sets its sights beyond Europe for its quantum computers

Finnish quantum computing startup IQM is now a unicorn: The company just raised more than $300 million in a Series B funding round that was led by Ten Eleven Ventures, a U.S. investment firm focused on cybersecurity. A university spinout, IQM builds quantum computers meant for on-premises installations as well as a cloud platform that taps this hardware. The company has already sold its quantum computers to enterprises in APAC and the U.S., but its strongest market remains Europe. That’s what

Luigi Mangione's likeness used to model shirt on Shein

Luigi Mangione's likeness used to model shirt on Shein A spokesperson from Shein told BBC News: "The image in question was removed immediately upon discovery." It is thought the product he appeared to be modelling was on sale for just under $10 (£7.50). An image with his likeness, which appeared to show him wearing a white, short-sleeved shirt, appeared on the fast-fashion website until its removal. Fast-fashion giant Shein has launched an investigation after an image of Luigi Mangione - acc

AI is going great for the blind (2023)

As I was looking at the amount of times platforms died on the web and I began thinking about the slow death of AI enthusiasm and what that will do to the Blind community. It really is a bizarre feeling when you’re the only skeptic of a thing within your own community. My first post about AI has gained some attention, as well as the follow up post about this topic. AI is taking the blind community by storm. Be my Eyes has added it into their product to describe pictures, Let’s not mention the fa

Alphabet stock pops 6% in premarket trading after Google avoids break-up in antitrust case

The Google logo is seen outside a building housing Google offices in Beijing on February 4, 2025. China on February 4 said it would probe US tech giant Google over violations of anti-monopoly laws after Washington slapped 10 percent levies on Chinese goods. Alphabet shares rose 6% in premarket trading on Wednesday as investors viewed the result of Google's antitrust case as broadly favorable to the tech giant. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) had proposed a sort of break-up of Google, whic

The U.S. makes it harder for TSMC, SK Hynix and Samsung to produce chips in China

The U.S. has revoked a waiver that allowed Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. to export key chipmaking equipment and technology to its manufacturing plant in Nanjing, China, as Washington continues to ramp up efforts to limit Beijing's semiconductor advancement. The change will remove a f

Building the AI-enabled enterprise of the future

“This is one of those inflection points where I don’t think anybody really has a full view of the significance of the change this is going to have on not just companies but society as a whole,” says Patrick Milligan, chief information security officer at Ford, which is making AI an important part of its transformation efforts and expanding its use across company operations. Given its game-changing potential—and the breakneck speed with which it is evolving—it is perhaps not surprising that comp

The connected customer

As brands compete for increasingly price conscious consumers, customer experience (CX) has become a decisive differentiator. Yet many struggle to deliver, constrained by outdated systems, fragmented data, and organizational silos that limit both agility and consistency. The current wave of artificial intelligence, particularly agentic AI that can reason and act across workflows, offers a powerful opportunity to reshape service delivery. Organizations can now provide fast, personalized support a

Turns out it’s possible to get a Pixel 10 with a physical SIM slot in the US

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority TL;DR Google is reportedly sending out global Pixel 10 models with physical SIM slots as replacement units to users. These global models lack support for mmWave 5G. While some people are viewing this as an upgrade, others are concerned about connectivity issues. If you bought a Pixel 10, 10 Pro, or 10 Pro XL in the US, your phone came without a physical SIM slot. That’s the standard for US models of Google’s latest flagships. Instead of having a traditional

Is ChatGPT not working for you? Here’s how you can try to fix it

Mahmoud Itani / Android Authority Update: September 3, 2025 (4:19 AM ET): ChatGPT seems to be facing some issues. Reports are starting to spike on DownDetector, and OpenAI’s status page also shows that ChatGPT is currently experiencing problems. It seems the chatbot is not displaying responses for users across the globe. We’ll update this article when we know more or when the issue is resolved. OpenAI is currently investigating the problem.

Latest Galaxy tri-fold rumor says the wait might be longer than we thought

TL;DR A new report from Korean media highlights a slightly different launch timeline for the Galaxy TriFold than previously rumored. It is reported that Samsung will unveil the dual-folding phone in October, with sales set to begin in November. Samsung reportedly plans to initially sell 50,000 units of the phone. The launch of the Samsung two-times folding phone, which is expected to be officially called “TriFold,” has been on the horizon for quite some time. Back in July, Android Authority e

Acer just revealed a stupidly powerful Chromebook convertible

Supplied by Acer TL;DR Acer has announced the Chromebook Plus Spin 514, which is one of the most powerful Chromebooks on the market. The company has also revealed two new Chromeboxes and the Swift Air 16 lightweight Windows laptop. The Chromebook Plus Spin 514 starts at $699.99. IFA 2025 kicks off this week, and Acer isn’t wasting any time. The PC maker has just announced a variety of new Chrome OS devices and PCs ahead of the annual tech expo. Perhaps the most notable Chrome OS device is t

This clever trick can help you find a lost or stolen Samsung phone. Here’s how it works

Joe Maring / Android Authority Losing your Android phone or having it stolen is never fun. While Google’s Find Hub can make the ordeal a lot less stressful, it isn’t a 100% foolproof solution to recovering a lost device. As with all things in life, having a backup plan is a good idea. In addition to Find Hub, lost Samsung phones also have the option of being found via Samsung’s SmartThings Find service. While those two apps may be enough for some people, there’s a third layer of protection you

Polar’s new minimalist fitness band is a subscription-free alternative to Whoop

Polar TL;DR Polar has launched the Polar Loop, a minimalist fitness band without a display or a subscription fee. The device tracks heart rate, activity, sleep, and recovery and syncs data to the Polar Flow app. It is available now for $199 in the US and €179 outside of the US, with shipping beginning September 10. Wearables usually fight for attention with brighter screens and smarter features, but the new Polar Loop takes the opposite approach. The company best known for its sports watches

Last-minute leak spoils Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S11 surprise

Ryan Whitwam / Android Authority TL;DR A last-minute leak has revealed images and features of the Samsung Galaxy Tab S11 series. It looks like Samsung is skipping the Plus model this year in favor of the base and Ultra variants. Samsung is expected to launch the new tablets at its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event. It’s that time of the year when a new tech launch happens almost every other week. Google launched the Pixel 10 series last month, Samsung introduced the Galaxy Tab S10 Lite just a f

I’d be more excited about the Pixel 10 Pro if it had this iPhone camera feature

Dhruv Bhutani / Android Authority The Pixel 10 Pro sits in quite an awkward spot this year. The main differentiator between the standard Pixel and the Pro model has long been the third camera, but that gap closed with the Pixel 10 also rocking a three-cam setup this time. Getting a solid telephoto camera on a $200 cheaper phone already sabotages the 10 Pro’s position as the real ‘Pro’ for most people. Since Google’s phones are known for cameras — they are called Pixels after all — the Pixel 10

Google Wallet’s exceptional Everything Else feature is rolling out more widely

Joe Maring / Android Authority TL;DR Google Wallet’s Everything Else feature is now rolling out to regions outside the US. Everything Else lets you scan uncommon IDs or documents and add their digital versions to Google Wallet. Google is also updating the app with a new shortcut specific to Indian users. At I/O 2024, Google announced a handy feature called Everything Else for Google Wallet. With this feature, you can scan or capture a picture of virtually any physical ID or pass and convert

Latest Apple store has a new way to blur the boundary between interior and exterior

The latest Apple Store opens tomorrow, just a couple of days after the previous one, which saw the Genius Bar and Pickup counter integrated into a single area. Apple Koregaon Park Also adopts this approach, and both stores also take a new approach to blurring the line between the interior and exterior … Apple is doubling the number of its retail stores in India in the course of just two days. The third store opened yesterday and the fourth one opens tomorrow. Both are mall stores, so it’s not

Google’s Gemini smart home plans are about to make Siri look even dumber

Apple is already under massive fire for falling behind in AI, and Google’s Gemini smart home plans are about to make that a whole lot worse. Not only is Siri lagging dramatically behind generative AI chatbots in smartphone-based tasks, but Google is about to make Apple’s assistant look really dumb when it comes to smart homes … Gemini for Home Google recently announced its Gemini for Home replacement for Google Assistant in smart home devices. Compared to Google Assistant, “Gemini for Home”

Acer's new gaming lineup includes an 18-inch AI laptop and a 720Hz monitor

Acer maintains two different gaming product lines and it's updating both of them at IFA 2025. Among the new gear is a gigantic new 18-inch Predator laptop, an ultra high-refresh rate monitor and multiple entry-level Nitro laptops and monitors. The updated Predator Helios 18P AI is an even more powerful version of the Predator Helio 18 the company showed off at CES 2024, offering "desktop-level AI" in what's still technically a portable body. Inside, you can get up to an Intel Core Ultra 9 proce

Acer Chromebook Plus Spin 514 review: The new ChromeOS sweet spot

In the last few years, I’ve felt like Chromebooks have hit a plateau. ChromeOS is a quirky but mature platform at this point, and Google has continued to add smart and useful features on a regular basis. But the hardware has felt pretty stagnant, with a few exceptions. Most Chromebooks at this point are utilitarian devices that get the job done but inspire little excitement, and I’ve found most Intel-based Chromebooks don’t get me through a day of work before the battery dies. But earlier this

JBL just announced its largest-ever battery-powered party speaker

JBL just announced the PartyBox 720, which is an extremely chonky party speaker. As a matter of fact, it's the company's largest-ever battery-powered party speaker. The thing is bigger than many human children. It boasts 800W of power with up to 15 hours of playtime via a replaceable battery. There are two 9-inch woofers and a pair of 30mm dome tweeters, which should provide for robust audio. The company has included its proprietary AI Sound Boost technology, which increases audio without disto

Acer's Swift 16 Air laptop weighs less than 2.2 pounds

Acer just unveiled the new Swift 16 Air laptop at IFA 2025. The biggest selling point here is likely the weight. The 16-inch laptop clocks in at just over two pounds, which is lighter than a 13-inch MacBook Air . The Swift 16 Air is available with two display options. There's a standard IPS panel and an AMOLED. The AMOLED does tick the weight up a bit to 2.4 pounds, which is worth considering. Acer The overall specs here are solid. These computers are powered by AMD Ryzen AI 300 Series proces
