Some people like to stock up on stuff — you know, like giant containers of mayonnaise, tins of popcorn and a garage freezer full of chicken breast.

Far too many people overpay for their phone service out of an overabundance of caution. You might think you need unlimited text or data “just in case,” but if you spend most of your time soaking in Wi-Fi and don’t text a whole lot, you can get by with less — a lot less. For example, right now Red Pocket …

There are a lot of digital photo frames out there, but the Meural Canvas II is a little different — yes, it can show your family photos like any other frame, but it’s designed to house a rotating gallery of fine art.

Today might seem like Groundhog Day to SpaceX after SN9’s inauspicious landing, but that might be because this literally is Groundhog Day.

Noise-canceling headphones have become so plentiful — and so good — that there’s hardly any reason to buy audio gear without active noise canceling built in anymore. But before you plunk down $550 on Apple’s AirPods Max, know that there are many more affordable (and arguably better) alternatives. Case in point: Phiaton’s snazzy 900 Legacy headphones usually cost $250 and …

Samsung pretty much knocked it out of the park with its Galaxy Watch series — the smartwatch was a great alternative to the Apple Watch right from the start thanks to its gorgeous looks, smart Tizen operating system and wealth of features. The LTE version of the original Galaxy Watch from 2018 still sells for $220 or more on Amazon …

Years ago, when I first imagined wireless charging, my imagination pictured something a lot more like the Kew Labs UTS-1 than the ugly charging pucks and pads we routinely use these days.
