Dell 27 Plus 4K Review (S2725QS): The Monitor Almost Everyone Should Buy

At one time, having a 4K monitor felt like a luxury. Now, thanks to the power of modern computers and the dramatic price drop, 4K monitors are no longer unattainable upgrades. They're becoming the standard. The Dell 27 Plus 4K is the best example of this trend I've seen so far. It might not have all the bells and whistles of a Dell UltraSharp monitor, nor the mind-blowing image quality of the Dell 32 Plus OLED. But for my money, this is the best monitor the average person working from home shou

Samsung S95F QD-OLED Review: The Best Looking TV Screen of 2025

As a Samsung phone user of more than a decade, I still mostly hate using Samsung TVs. The stupid interface is annoying and hard to navigate, the apps are not that great, and I often stumble into some random section or other when I’m looking for something basic, like an input button, on the remote. The screen on Samsung’s flagship S95F QD-OLED is so utterly gorgeous that none of this matters. Gorgeous black levels, insane colors, and a truly cinematic matte screen make this TV the prettiest I ha

Alienware’s AW2725Q 4K OLED gaming monitor is down to its lowest price ever at Amazon

If you prefer gaming on a PC instead of consoles, you should hook it up to a display that can support playing games at higher frame rates for a smoother experience.

These ‘4K-Like’ AR Glasses Are Actually Only 1080p, but I Want Them All the Same

When it comes to gadget specs, it’s best to be precise. For example, if you were buying a TV, you may want to know the resolution, and if you showed up to Best Buy and the tag on your brand-spanking-new Sony said “kind of, sort of, 4K,” you’d probably have some questions. Same goes for AR glasses, in my opinion, but that didn’t stop Viture from slapping “4K-like” branding on all of its new frames. It also doesn’t stop me from wanting them all the same.
