I have yet to find any Android tablet that I love more than the Pixel Tablet

Rita El Khoury / Android Authority It’s been two years (and a few days) since Google released the Pixel Tablet, and I’ve been using it since that very first day. At the time, I thought Google’s approach to an Android tablet was pretty weird but intriguing. Always-on, always ready, not really a Nest Hub, nor as powerful as the best Android tablets — it felt like a bit of a Frankenstein product that would only win the hearts of a small niche of users. I was part of that niche, and two years late

The best cheap portable power stations of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

I remember when power banks were new. They were an amazing development, freeing us from the tyranny of having to be near an AC outlet to charge out gadgets. Next came the power stations. They packed even more power into an admittedly bigger space. Still, we were freed from needing to be near to AC outlets or use extension cables when working outside, or in the RV or camping. The original power stations were big and expensive, so manufacturers to came up with smaller, more affordable models. Her

Why I prefer this Lenovo tablet over the iPad for multimedia consumption (and it's on sale)

The stablecoin evangelist: Katie Haun’s fight for digital dollars

In 2018, when Bitcoin was trading around $4,000 and most Americans, at least, thought cryptocurrency was a fad, Katie Haun found herself on a debate stage in Mexico City opposite Paul Krugman, the Nobel Prize-winning economist who had dismissed digital assets as near worthless. As Krugman focused on Bitcoin’s wild price swings, Haun steered the conversation toward something else — stablecoins. “Stablecoins are really interesting and really important to this ecosystem to hedge against that volat

I replaced my iPad with a $100 Android tablet, and here's my verdict after two weeks

ZDNET's key takeaways The Celero5G Tab is available for as low as $100 for existing customers, with a data line costing $20 a month.
