All you PlayStation 5 players can now pair your wireless DualSense controllers with up to four devices at a time and toggle among them. For some time, you've been able to pair your DualSense controllers not just with PS5s and other PlayStation consoles, but also with PCs, Macs, smartphones and other Bluetooth devices. But that pairing could happen with only one device at a time; using a different device with a DualSense required pairing all over again. That changes now, with system update 25.0

These Headphones With Bose Sound and 100 Hours of Battery Won’t Destroy Your Wallet

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-10-10 15:31:03

I’m a fan of Bose audio. In recent memory, I’ve tried Bose’s SoundLink Plus, a portable Bluetooth speaker with big sound and a great (grassy) look; the second-gen QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds with their ridiculously good ANC; and its Ultra Open Earbuds, probably the best pair of open earbuds I’ve used to date. That being said, there’s one thing that I don’t love about Bose products, and that’s the premium pricing. Nearly $300 for a Bluetooth speaker is a lot, and so is $300 for a pair of wireless

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds (2nd Gen): Excellent Buds

wired.com Parker Hall 2025-10-11 23:01:00

When it comes to cutting out annoying outside noise, there is no brand in history that has denatured more decibels than Bose. The pioneers of noise-canceling haven’t been without challengers in recent years, including Sony, Apple, and others, but Bose has maintained the crown for generation after generation. Perhaps no product showcases this iterative talent more than its latest earbuds, the QuietComfort Ultra 2. There wasn’t anything wrong with the first pair. I liked their ergonomic fit, exce
