Some of our AC forum members recently got to talking about their S10 endurance. Here’s [Read More…]
It won’t really matter in the long run, but right now it’s near-impossible to explain what 5G is.
The build-out of consumer 5G networks is difficult from a technological and logistical standpoint. Varying network standards between carriers, coverage issues resulting from necessary infrastructure upgrades, and limited availability of 5G phones early on are all hindering the 5G rollout. But one of the biggest problems underlying it all is that “5G” isn’t just one thing, and it’s both [Read More…]
This isn’t Sony’s first rodeo, but it still needs to play its cards right.
Microsoft just brought down the house at The Game Awards Thursday night. Phil Spencer took to the stage to finally reveal Xbox Scarlett, or as it’s now known: Xbox Series X. It’s a beastly console that looks like a PC tower. On top of that, a Hellblade sequel was announced alongside it.
It was an amazing reveal that no one expected — how [Read More…]
There are improvements to be found, but this isn’t a complete game changer yet.
The early days of 5G networks are confusing, with the biggest annoyance being the explanation of what kind of 5G network a given carrier is using.

The Pixelbook Go is like that guy she told you not to worry about.
A lot of people have written a lot of words about how dissappointed they are with the Pixelbook Go. Myself included. But almost all of those words saying how it’s overpriced or doesn’t compare to the original or how other cheaper Chromebooks are better come from people who have never touched it.
