EcoFlow has announced that the launch of the DELTA 2 Max in the US and Canada will be on May 25th. This new iteration of the original DELTA Max is a massive upgrade to an already fantastic product. If you are in the market for a solar generator, this is a great option and comes with some special deals.
It is finally grill season, and I’m pretty stoked; there’s nothing better than a freshly grilled chicken breast with a salad, some veggies, and a few cold beers. But keeping that chicken juicy shouldn’t require a Ph.D. in grilling. Thanks to the ThermoWorks Thermapen ONE, you can cook like a pro and — for the next week —save some cash.
Amazon has abruptly announced that they’re discontinuing their Halo fitness and sleep trackers. If you’re still using one, you’re good until July 31st, after which you should give your privacy-invading little friend a Viking funeral. Or, you know, send it to Amazon for proper recycling.
During CES, Judie was able to visit with EcoFlow to see some early versions of their new battery-powered smart devices. The EcoFlow Blade is a lawn sweeping mower, the EcoFlow Glacier is a portable refrigerator with an ice maker, and the EcoFlow Wave 2 is the next version of their popular portable AC and heater. These latest products are finally ready for sale, and they’ll be revealed in-depth during the EcoFlow live stream on April 26th.
In this day and age, there’s no reason to lug anything heavy around when you can keep your laptop light yet powerful; Lenovo is providing a whole slate of options with their new Slim and Yoga devices!
It seems like what we want and expect from our phones just keeps increasing. What started as just making phone calls on the go has rapidly evolved into a video game console, high-end camera, and even artificially intelligent digital assistants. Our phones need to work even harder to keep up with us, and Qualcomm‘s new Snapdragon 7+ Gen 2 processor is aiming to outrun the competition!
Sometimes the goal of new computers is to make things smaller, sleeker, and more portable. And sometimes, the goal is to make something that’s fully “blow your hair back” fast. Kind of like how some cars are commuter boxes, and some cars are Aston Martins. Lenovo was thinking along the same lines, hence why they’re rolling out new ThinkStation PX, P7, and P5 for intense computing needs that sport an attractive new chassis build co-designed with Aston Martin!
Eight years ago, I reviewed the Ring Video Doorbell. This was such a new product category at the time that I wrote, “knowing who’s standing at your door when you are or aren’t at home is a pretty handy superpower.” Honestly, I still think that’s true. The all-new Ring Battery Doorbell Plus is the brand’s most significant update to its battery doorbell lineup yet, and one of the features being touted is battery life that can last up to three times longer than that first-gen Ring Video Doorbell I reviewed, but that’s just the start.
Qualcomm quietly powers so much of our lives, from the processors in your phone to the connectivity in your house. They never stop innovating, though, and they came prepared to show off at MWC! We’ve gone from SIM cards down to eSIM, but Qualcomm looked at that and thought, “needs to be smaller.” Enter the iSIM, which takes the eSIM to the next step by integrating the SIM directly into the processor. This may not sound like a big deal to the end user, but it will save significant space under the hood. That means more room for your phone…
Now that most areas are blanketed in 5G, companies like MediaTek are looking to the next big thing in connectivity-satellite. Satphones have existed for some time, but satellite to mobile has become a much bigger focus as of late. MediaTek has teamed up with British mobile phone manufacturer Bullitt to power several new rugged satellite-capable devices!
Realme has been a rapidly growing smartphone brand, and they’re looking to stand out with their new device, the realme GT3. The GT3 isn’t just a flagship smartphone; it’s a phone that has literally pushed charging to the limits!
The focus on foldables has mostly been on ones that expand out into tablet style, but OPPO is interested in tapping into our collective love of flip phones with the new Find N2 Flip!
We are pushing more and more power into our phones. The problem is more power equals more heat. OnePlus is thinking INSIDE the box for a solution here, or at least inside the desktop tower, by designing the OnePlus 11 Concept phone, which is cooled using the same principles that keep gaming PCs frosty.
If you aren’t going to be at Mobile World Congress 2023, the next best thing is live-streaming all of the new smartphone launch events! Honor will be launching its latest foldable phone, the Honor Magic Vs, and the brand-new flagship Honor Magic5 series at MWC on February 27th at 1:30 pm CET from Barcelona (or 7:30 am ET); here’s how you can watch it all!
Some things are absolutes, like the sun rising in the east and setting in the west, or that no, Pepsi is never okay. And, of course, MediaTek is always going to be ready with the next big leap forward to make your smartphone experience even faster, which they are doing with the new Dimensity 7200!
Portable power station technology has come a long way, making them more dependable and powerful. Litheli is releasing the B600 Portable Power Station, which offers two additional detachable, modular batteries to power other Litheli tools and devices. This is a new turn in the product space of portable power hubs and provides users with a grab-and-go experience.
As much of Texas thaws out from the recent cold snap, where thousands (once again) went without power for several days, the writing on the wall says it’s never been more necessary to have an emergency off-grid power source. We’ve covered several EcoFlow power stations, and they’ve consistently impressed us with their design and quality. And now, from February 8 through February 14, you can save up to 30% off EcoFlow products. Don’t wait for the next natural disaster; now is the time to do something about it if you haven’t already got an emergency power source.
Roku has been making streaming boxes you can attach to your television for years. They’ve also partnered with other TV companies to put their Roku operating system on their sets. But now, you’ll be able to buy a Roku-made TV in just about any size you might need!
Fun lights make everything better. They’re not just for arcades anymore. You can outfit your gaming cave or even your home office with all sorts of great LEDs. Twinkly offers up all sorts of LED products that can brighten your space, and now they’re offering a new Entertainment Hub desktop app to really take your LED game up to a new and sparkling level.
Lutron makes all kinds of great devices to keep your home lights going. Their Caséta system aims to make sure you can customize your lighting controls wirelessly, and they’ve expanded that lineup at CES with the new Diva smart dimmer and Claro smart switch in a variety of colors to match your decor!
