For anyone who wants to level up from a smaller TV without having a screen take over the entire room, 65 inches is the sweet spot; it gives you that cinematic feel for movies and gaming but is still easier to place on a media console or stand than a more massive alternative (that said, the 75-inch model is also 33% off right now). This 2026 Samsung release is an entry-level 4K smart TV with a Mini LED backlight, running on the Tizen interface and loaded with Samsung Vision AI features. It supports HDR10+ and Auto HDR Remastering, which aims to enhance older conte...

If someone on your list needs a new smartwatch, it can be challenging to figure out which model to buy—there are more than a few on the market, all claiming to be the best at what they do. But unlike other devices, smartwatches are largely dependent on the other devices the user also owns. Once you take that into consideration, the decision becomes much easier. As such, these are the best choices for smartwatch gifts this year.Best Apple Watch gift for most people: Apple Watch SE 3 ...

On the surface, the iPhone keyboard looks like it did a decade ago, but underneath, much has changed. In addition to the hidden features that have existed for years, Apple has slowly added features and gestures that make typing a bit easier. If you're still shaking your iPhone to undo text, it's time to dig deeper. These 10 hacks can help you make the most of typing on your iPhone. Use keyboard haptics to simulate a physical keyboardTyping on an iPhone’s glass surface can feel a bit lifeless, especially if you’re used to typing on mechanical keyboards on your Mac. While there’s no way to get a physical keyboard on the iPhone (unless you get something like the Clicks keyboard), you can simulate it. The iPhone has a built-in Taptic engine, which provides subtle vibrations as you interact wit...

When you think about browsers, Vivaldi is probably not the first name that comes to mind—but it should be. This is a Chromium-based browser that focuses on adding so many features that you don't need to install multiple apps to get things done. Vivaldi has been around for over a decade now, and has become a pretty complete product, though it continues to improve. I've been using the browser for while, and these are the best Vivaldi hacks I've found in my time.Use Chrome extensions to enhance privacy in Vivaldi for AndroidVivaldi for Android, one of the best non-Chrome browsers on Android, recently added support for Chrome extensions—even though Chrome for Android still doesn't support extensions. You can use it to enhance your privacy by installing uBlock Origin Lite to block ads and track...

Audible is one of the largest and most popular audiobook services out there, and with good reason, as it gives you access to a huge library at a competitive price.

These are the tricks you need to know to get the most out of Audible and save some money along the way. Add narration to Kindle to get audiobooks for free or at a low costIf you like to have the option to either read or listen to your books, you can take advantage of Kindle and Audible crossovers to get the audio version of certain titles for free, or at least less than what you'd pay if you bought them...

Our world is full of processed food, for better or worse. It would be easy for me to sit at my keyboard and tell you to avoid it and eat foods in forms closest to how they are in nature: apples, not apple pie. But just because something is “processed” (whatever that means) doesn’t automatically make it bad for you. It’s time to lose the guilt and own up to eating processed food sometimes—and maybe we’ll see it’s not that bad.Don’t obsess over how processed each food isHere’s the hard part: defining processed food. Doritos, processed. Not a tough call there. Raw potato with the dirt still on it: unprocessed. So far so good. But if we wash that potato, boil it, maybe peel it too...mix it with butter, and garlic (and then more butter, and more garlic)—uh-oh. That’s kind of processed, isn’t it...

That includes where you wear it: Whoop has the right idea with their bicep band and “any-wear” clothing. Since Google hasn’t released a bicep band for the Fitbit Air, some users are taking matters into their own hands—with rolls of tape. I’ve watched this trend unfold on the Fitbit Air subreddit, as one person after another realizes they can just tape the device to their arm, or anywhere they want. I’ve actually done something like this before—years ago, I found myself trying to fit the Whoop onto my ankle, and then thought, wait a sec, can’t I just tape it to the side of my leg? (I did, and it worked.)  Why are people taping Fitbits ...

Tailscale has apps for all the major device platforms. Credit: Tailscale Tailscale wasn't on my radar until a friend recently raved about its capabilities to me. Looking around the web, it seems the software has attracted a loyal following; perhaps part of the reason I hadn't come across it before is that it's not all that easy to understand what it does. Tailscale is technically a VPN (Virtual Private Network), but not in the way the term is typically used. Whereas something like NordVPN or ExpressVPN connects you to someone else's network to access the wider web, Tailscale does the opposite, and connects you to your own network from outside. ...

It's not altruism or a marketing strategy: Nintendo was given $300 million in government tariff refunds, and they're now using that as an excuse to kick off a "Customer Appreciation Sale." The sale runs through Sept. 26, and it is available on the Nintendo eShop, Nintendo Store, and at retailers like Amazon, Best Buy, and Walmart. You can find Nintendo Switch digital games and bundles, select physical games, downloadable content, accessories, and apparel at up to 30% off.
