Deals of the Day (9-19-2017)
Amazon may have a new $150 tablet with a full HD display. But it’s hardly the cheapest 1080p tablet you can find. In fact, right now the Microsoft Store is selling two Windows 10 tablets with full HD displays for less than $100. The Nuvision TM800W is an 8 inch model that’s on sale for […]
This is what the Huawei Mate 10 looks like (leaks)
Huawei plans to launch its latest flagship phone on October 16th, but Evan Blass has spilled a few beans by sharing a picture of the upcoming Huawei Mate 10 a few weeks early. The new phone looks nearly identical to last year’s Mate 9, but Blass says there’s also a Mate 10 Pro in the […]

As expected, Amazon is launching an updated Fire HD 10 tablet. What’s a little unexpected though, is that the new model has a higher-resolution display, a faster processor, more memory, and new features… and it’s still cheaper than the model it replaces.

Pi wireless charging system works from up to a foot away (but phones need a special charging case)
Apple may have just launched the first iPhones to support wireless charging, but some other phone makers have been offering wireless charging features for years. Most existing solutions require you to place your phone on a charging pad or dock though… so while it’s true that you don’t need to plug anything into your phone […]
Really retro ThinkPad: X62 and T70 mods put modern specs into old laptop cases

Roku may be developing a smart speaker (or at least better voice controls)

Motorola to release Android 8.0 update for Moto G4 (after saying it would… then wouldn’t)
Motorola recently unveiled a list spelling out which of its phones would be updated to Android 8.0 Oreo soon, and some folks quickly noticed a glaring omission.

Deals of the Day (9-18-2017)
Amazon-owned Woot is still a pretty good place to find new and refurbished items at deep discounts.

Now you can disable Samsung’s Bixby Button
Samsung may envision Bixby as a “smarter way” to interact with mobile devices using just your voice. But plenty of folks don’t… at least not yet. So when Samsung started shipping Bixby-enabled phones like the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8, the company added a dedicated Bixby key to the side of the phone. Developers […]
