Just in time for game day: The TCL 65

Here’s the scenario: The big game is in a few hours and all you have to watch it on is a tiny 42-inch TV. Like some sort of caveman. Well, fear not: There’s still time to close the deal on a new 65-inch set and have it ready in time for kickoff. Over at Best Buy, I found the TCL …

Get a smartphone stud

Stud-finders are just the worst. In my experience, they tend to beep more or less at random, never sounding off in the same spot more than once.

Virtual reality seems like it’s undergone a dramatic refocusing over the past year: away from PCs, and toward do-it-all self-contained headsets like the groundbreaking Oculus Quest. A very Oculus Quest-like standalone VR headset ended up on my face at CES in Las Vegas, one of a number of VR demos I tried at the show. The Pico Neo 2 Eye …
