Now a new report says it will include haptic feedback … The Logitech MX Master 3 and 3S have long been a popular choice for power users, thanks to a combination of ergonomic design, pixel-level precision, customization options, gesture controls, and multi-device pairing.

For a few dozen people in the world, the downside of living with a rare immune condition comes with a surprising superpower—the ability to fight off all viruses. Columbia immunologist Dusan Bogunovic discovered the individuals’ antiviral powers about 15 years ago, soon after he identified the genetic mutation that causes the condition. At first, the condition only seemed to increase vulnerability to some bacterial infections. But as more patients were identified, its unexpected antiviral benef

Skylight’s TikTok alternative adds community curators to the mix

A startup called Skylight is taking a different approach to short-form video. Instead of restricting users to an algorithmic main feed, as is common on social apps, Skylight is building a community around human curators who post and repost videos to build out their own custom feeds others can subscribe to.

The best foldable phones of 2025: Expert tested and reviewed

zdnet.com Kerry Wan 2025-11-05 18:00:22

Why we like it: Samsung made an astonishing leap forward in its 2025 foldable phones, which was great to see after several years of iterative designs. The new Z Fold 7 features its thinnest (4.2 mm) and lightest (215 grams) design yet, making the device feel more like a traditional handset when folded, and a super sleek tablet when unfolded. It helps that the Android operating system has been steadily improving for foldables as well. More and more apps are starting to take advantage of the extr

I developed a game called "Putter King Adventure Golf" for iOS and Android back in the 2010s. It's long since disappeared from the app stores, but my son recently asked if he could play it, which got me thinking about whether it might be recoverable. I'm wondering if there's any way to find a copy of it somewhere on the web (I assume it was probably pirated at some point during its lifetime).

Lenovo IdeaPad 5i 2-in-1 Review: Barely Squeaking By

Budget laptops are finally improving. Extra RAM and more efficient processors are making cheap laptops significantly more pleasant to use and recommend. However, the Lenovo IdeaPad 5i 2-in-1 is somewhat of an old-school budget laptop. It uses a cheaper Intel chip, which compromises performance and battery life, and at first glance, it appears to be overpriced. While this machine doesn't move the needle for budget PCs, if you need a 16-inch laptop, there's just barely enough here to make it wort

Apple is no longer allowed to advertise the Apple Watch as carbon neutral, a German court ruled following a protest from environmentalists about Apple’s promoted claims.

Google will block sideloading of unverified Android apps

Google will implement a new safety feature that would require developers to verify their identity if they want Android users to be able to sideload their apps. The company said that it made the decision after recent analysis found "over 50 times more malware from internet-sideloaded sources than on apps available through Google Play." By verifying a developer's identify first, it hopes to better protect users from "bad actors spreading malware and scams." In its announcement, Google said that a
