This toolless modular lever-action wallet is the coolest I’ve stuck to my phone

This toolless modular lever-action wallet is the coolest I’ve stuck to my phone. Remember when I tested the ultra-thin and convenient OhSnap Snap Grip Stand and liked it so much I bought my own?

OpenAI’s Dot agent is enterprise software that can also order your dinner

It’s a tale as old as last week: OpenAI’s new agent platform, called Dots, is full of cute little guys who can do your bidding.

The Pocket Advance nearly perfects my favorite Nintendo handheld

Although I count the original Game Boy as one of my first tech obsessions, I still consider Nintendo’s Game Boy Advance to be my favorite console of all time thanks to its more comfortable horizontal design (for my big hands) and its expansive catalog of excellent 32-bit and 16-bit games.

The Sonos Ace Ultra are the headphones Sonos should have made the first time

The original Sonos Ace headphones should have been a triumphant entry into a new product category. Instead, they were overshadowed by Sonos’s disastrous app redesign.

Can Apple Home’s AI camera features outsmart Amazon’s and Google’s? I put them to the test

A few years back, I was at a beachside Easter egg hunt, watching my kids dash through sand dunes searching for sweet treats. My phone buzzed in my pocket; I ignored it. A moment later, it buzzed again. I pulled it out, glanced down, and saw a “motion detected” notification from my security camera. “Just […]

Walking around Meta Connect 2026, everyone’s sporting smart glasses in all sorts of shapes, colors, and sizes. It’s a marked difference here, a tech bubble where “pervert glasses” are not a concern.
