Anker Clears Out USB-C Car Charger at Practically Free for 4th of July, Not Sure It Will Last Through Prime Day

No matter how careful you are, you’ll probably find yourself with a dead phone battery at some point. Or you’ll be dealing with a dwindling battery at some point that still needs to be charged and you don’t have anywhere to do it since you’re in the car. If this sounds familiar, it might be time to plunk some money down on a car charger. And not one of those flimsy options, either. One that can get you together no matter what kind of battery emergency you’re having. Head to Amazon to get the An

The Three Types of Camera I Learned Every Photographer Needs to Have

I've been a professional photographer for over a decade, shooting everything from editorial photo stories, to product photography and landscape, travel and street photography in my personal work. In that time, I've learned there are three main types of camera that all photographers need to own. And I'm not talking about brands, like a Sony or a Canon, or even sensor types, like a full frame or an APS C. I mean a deeper level of camera selection -- the types of camera that offer fundamentally dif

Lego’s latest buildable arcade machine is packed full of fun hidden details

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. At 468-pieces it’s no where near as elaborate as Lego’s buildable Pac-Man machine, but this 6-inch tall Arcade Machine set will only set you back $39.99 when it launches on August 1st, 2025. At this scale Lego wasn’t able to make this arcade machine playable like Pac-Man is, but it still managed to include some fun details. On the outside the ma

Android 16’s Live Updates won’t work with your favorite music player, and that’s a bummer

Mishaal Rahman / Android Authority TL;DR Android 16 introduces Live Updates, a new feature that elevates ongoing notifications to the status bar, but it excludes media playback notifications. This is because media apps use a dedicated “Media style” template, which is not one of the specific styles that can be promoted to a Live Update. Switching styles would cause media apps to lose key playback controls and features, a trade-off developers are unlikely to make for this new functionality. Li

The 7 Best Kitchen Scales Reviewed by a Former Chocolatier (2025)

It’s hard to overstate the convenience of a solid kitchen scale for home cooks. Digital kitchen scales open up a new world of possibilities when it comes to upping your cooking or baking game, allowing precision in measuring ingredients, consistency in recipes, and efficiency in the kitchen. As more and more recipes are converted to grams (my favorite measuring metric), there’s no reason to put off investing in a digital scale, especially with how affordable these gadgets can be. Most—like our

Samsung seems to have leaked its own trifold phone design

Samsung may have inadvertently given us a first look at its upcoming “multifold” device in the latest One UI 8 build update. Some animations spotted by Android Authority show what the trifold Samsung flagship might look like, including the dual-hinge folding mechanism, display layout, camera setup, and NFC location. The device is speculated to be called the “Galaxy G Fold,” though Android Authority notes that it’s labeled as the “Multifold 7” in the One UI 8 animation files. Samsung first tease

Finally, Bluetooth trackers for Android users that beat out my AirTags (and cost less)

ZDNET's key takeaways The Chipolo One Point and Card Point normally retails for $26 and $24, respectively. They're highly accurate, robust, and integrate well into the Google ecosystem. However, the One is only splashproof, and the Card version has a non-user-replaceable battery. $28 at Amazon For a limited time, you can pick up the Chpolo One Point for as little as $21 on Amazon and other major retailers. AirTags are one of the things that have set the Apple ecosystem apart from the Android

I'm Rethinking My Upgrade Based on These 5 iPhone 17 Pro Max Rumors

I've always been on team Regular Size when it comes to iPhone Pro models, even in years when the larger Pro Max models have gained exclusive features, like the 5x telephoto "tetraprism" camera in the iPhone 15 Pro Max (which expanded to both models in the iPhone 16 Pro). Despite the more expansive screen size, the Max has always seemed too bulky to carry around all day. But a host of rumored features and design changes for the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro Max has me weighing the benefits of embracing

Next month, saved passwords will no longer be in Microsoft’s Authenticator app

Starting this month, you'll no longer be able to use Microsoft Authenticator's autofill password function, a move the company is making to transition from passwords to passkeys. Last month, Microsoft stopped letting you save new passwords in the app. Next month is the biggest change, all your saved passwords will no longer be in the Authenticator app. You'll have to use passkeys instead -- such as a PIN, fingerprint or facial recognition.

U.S. lifts chip software curbs on China amid trade truce

The U.S. government has rescinded its export restrictions on chip-design software to China, semiconductor software companies Synopsys and Cadence announced Thursday. "Synopsys is working to restore access to the recently restricted products in China," the California-based software maker said in a statement. Its rival, Cadence, confirmed with CNBC that the U.S. Bureau of Industry and Security, which falls under the Department of Commerce, had reversed the export restrictions. "We are in the pr

Nintendo Switch 2 Joy-Con Issues? It Might Just Be Your HDMI Cable

As the Switch 2 continues to sell in the millions for Nintendo, it shouldn't be a surprise that there'd be some issues with the console. It appears, however, that one problem Switch 2 owners are facing is actually just a matter of using the wrong cable. Reddit users have posted about their Joy-Cons disconnecting when they're playing on their Switch 2 while it's docked, an issue spotted earlier by IGN. It does appear that, luckily, the issue can be resolved by using the included HDMI cable for t

Prepare to Share All Your Pics With Meta If You Turn On Facebook's New AI Photo Tool

There's good news and bad news: The bad news is that Meta's continued development of generative AI has led it to add a privacy nightmare setting to its Facebook app. The good news is that, in a big departure from Meta's status quo, you have control over whether you participate. It's all about whether the company and its AI get access to your camera roll and all the pictures there, even the ones you haven't posted anywhere. Meta, Facebook's parent company, has been trying to keep up with AI hea

New evidence that some supernovae may be a “double detonation”

Type Ia supernovae are critical tools in astronomy, since they all appear to explode with the same intensity, allowing us to use their brightness as a measure of distance. The distance measures they've given us have been critical to tracking the expansion of the Universe, which led to the recognition that there's some sort of dark energy hastening the Universe's expansion. Yet there are ongoing arguments over exactly how these events are triggered. There's widespread agreement that type Ia supe

Google’s fix for Pixel 6A battery overheating issues arrives next week

A mandatory update for Google’s mid-range Pixel 6A phones is coming next week that is meant to reduce the risk of the battery overheating on some devices.

However, only users with “Impacted Devices” will see any effect on their battery.

The Evolution of Caching Libraries in Go

The Evolution of Caching Libraries in Go¶ For the last few years, I've been developing caching library, and today I'd like to talk about the evolution of caches in Go and where we stand today. Especially since Go 1.24 was officially supposed to focus on caching improvements, but I haven't heard much news about them - time to fix that . Before we begin, I believe it’s important to mention that in programming languages with GC (such as Go), caching libraries are divided into two main types: on-h

You Only Have Until July 7 to Grab Some Rare First Chapter Lorcana Cards

The folks over at Ravensburger have been doing a lot of good work for fans of its wildly successful trading card game (TCG), Lorcana. The Reign of Jafar set gave us some amazing new cards, and the new Fabled set is looking to bring back some fan favorites as the game moves into a new phase, one that almost all TCGs go through, by rotating sets out of standard play. Because the first four sets will no longer be legal in competition play, the Fabled set will reprint some cards from those first fou

Turn Off This Facebook Setting Now to Avoid Sharing Your Entire Camera Roll With Meta AI
