Microsoft announced two new Surface laptops today—the Surface Laptop and Surface Pro—but these aren't replacing the models that debuted last year. Instead, they're slightly more affordable and exist as new options within the Surface lineup. Microsoft says these Windows laptops are the thinnest and lightest Surface devices yet, with the longest battery life, too. On paper, they sound great, but choosing a Surface laptop is now more complex. With an MSRP of $799 for the Surface Pro (12 Inch) and

Backbone’s new gaming controller looks like it should have a phone inside. The Backbone Pro has the same basic shape as the company’s previous device, the excellent Backbone One — its two oblong halves are connected by a strip of plastic and metal that expands enough to dock your smartphone into the exposed USB-C port. The Pro is heavier than the previous model, and feels a bit more solid both to use and to pull apart, but the idea is the same. The key difference with the Pro, though, is that y
