Poco X8 Pro First Look! This is a MONSTER chip to put in a mid-price smartphone! Shame the design is so plain...

Tech IS politics. Tim Cook manages a company that rivals small nation's economies. He's one of the most effective politicians of the modern age, and Apple pours money into marketing and lobbying efforts. Apple has tremendous influence over governments, and appeals against regulations.
Apple is a political bully and Tim Cook is a liar.

Digg WAS back, and a lot of us were excited to try a fresh spin on a social news site, but after a couple weeks of facing issues with bots and community moderation, the team at Digg just pulled the plug. No warning, no consideration for moderator efforts, just nuked the whole thing. I DEFINITELY had some thoughts about this...

I've never tried making an ASMR unboxing video before. It's really not my thing, but it was kind of a fun challenge trying to capture and edit that kinda audio. If ASMR is YOUR thing, I have the iQOO 15R unboxing up on my Patreon!

I genuinely dont even know how it ranks as a good ASMR video 😅

I waited to write my Xiaomi 17 Ultra review until we saw the new Galaxy S26 Ultra. More than just "which device is betterer" in some stupid singular benchmark, I tried to consider "which company's business model would I want to support more".

AI investments look to be drying up. Apple's new MacBook chip looks impressive. What are we going to do about GenAI "adult content"?

Google officially launches a desktop mode, so you can use your phone more like a proper PC. Is it ready to meet your needs? Is it really much evolved over custom desktop modes from years past? Let's take a look!

I love seeing game developers bring GREAT console and PC games to Android. Tomb Raider just landed on our phones, and the game is great.
But a small wrinkle, we could already play Tomb Raider through emulation. So, what's the best way to play Tomb Raider on a phone?

Techies and influencers get awkward (sometimes confrontational) when I openly and publicly talk about how much I dislike Samsung as a corporation.
Then they go and do stuff like this, and I wonder why they aren't hated by enthusiasts more...

It's really fun when we see a "budget" phone brand take a few steps UP and deliver a more premium device. The Infinix Note 60 Ultra is a MONSTER gadget that embarrasses the mid-range options from Google and Samsung.

For those who care about properly crediting companies for innovative features, it's always irritating when influencers flip out about a "new" feature on an iPhone which Androids have had for years prior.
Likewise, we should be similarly critical when influencers hype a feature on a bigger brand like Samsung, which a smaller brand pioneered.
Horizon lock IS a really cool feature (and it was a really cool feature FIVE years ago on a Vivo)!

Xiaomi always impresses with the cameras on their ULTRA phones. This is likely the BEST set of phone cameras we'll see in 2026, but is the 17 Ultra worthy of that red Leica dot?
Here's my camera conclusion! https://youtu.be/GrMyhFbXJdM

RayNeo has a new pair of Cinema AR Glasses out now! These are the first HDR10 certified glasses, and they're only $250! Here's a quick look! https://youtube.com/shorts/J1O0z8DE5BM

Why buy a phone for a privacy screen, when you could have your own travel private movie theater?

Phones are computers, and now phones around $500 have largely passed that threshold I describe as "overkill for daily needs". Testing the new Vivo V70, we can see how it hangs against some PREMIUM expensive devices as a pocket computer!
