The iPhone XR and Galaxy S10E are wonderful phones that, for the most part, have all the same features and elegance of the iPhone XS and Galaxy S10, respectively. Fortunately for consumers, one thing these phones don’t share with their flagship cousins is the price. The cost for each is $750, which isn’t cheap, but …

I interrupt your Sunday with what is arguably the best TV deal of 2019: An Amazon seller just lopped another $200 off “the best value TV of 2018.” For a limited time, and while supplies last, the TCL 6 Series 65R617 65-inch Roku TV is just $499. Previous price: $699, itself a new low. Before that, it had been holding steady …

Last week I heaped praise on the JBL Stage A170 tower speakers, but I also had the much smaller Stage A130 bookshelf speakers on hand, so I cracked open the box to see how the two JBLs compare. They share the same 1-inch aluminum tweeter set into a waveguide that focuses the high-frequency dispersion, but while the A170 has two …

Computer storage technology has moved from wires with magnets to hard disks to 3D stacks of memory chips. But the next storage technology might use an approach as old as life on earth: DNA. Startup Catalog announced Friday it’s crammed all of the text of Wikipedia’s English-language version onto the same genetic molecules our own bodies use. It accomplished the …

President Donald Trump agreed Saturday to lift some restrictions against US companies selling high-tech gear to Chinese telecom giant Huawei, says a report. “We’re talking about equipment where there’s not a great national-emergency problem with it,” Trump said after a meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping, according to The Wall Street Journal. In May, Trump signed an executive order essentially banning …

Time to round out the ol’ movie library. This weekend, Pixar movies are on sale for $9.99 each at Vudu. There are 23 titles available at that price, so pretty much everything on the Disney/Pixar roster — oldies like Toy Story and A Bug’s Life and newer movies like Coco and The Incredibles 2. Usually they’re priced anywhere between $15-20. …

At a Mobile World Congress keynote panel in late February on the timing of 5G devices, Qualcomm President Cristiano Amon declared with confidence, “The phones are ready; we’re just waiting for the networks.” About an hour later, in a briefing room a mere 10 feet below that keynote hall, AT&T Chief Technology Officer Andre Fuetsch told CNET, “The issue is …

Fostex is a high-end consumer and pro sound Japanese company but its spotty distribution in the US has made availability a “sometimes” thing. That’s not a concern with the Massdrop X Fostex TR-X00 Purpleheart headphones, so I requested a review pair. Unboxing the headphones I was impressed with the build quality of the magnesium alloy frame and biodynamic drivers. The …

Nintendo’s Tertris 99 battle royale game for its Switch console may soon have a mobile doppelgänger: Tetris Royale. Gaming firm N3twork, in partnership with The Tetris Company, is developing its own multiplayer, last-person-standing version of the classic (and classically addicting) fit-the-falling-blocks-together game. A beta version for iPhones, iPads and Android phones will arrive this year, says a release from the …

Twitter is changing how it handles tweets from politicians and government leaders — including President Donald Trump — that violate its rules but are still in the public’s interest. The social network on Thursday said it’ll start placing a notice over tweets that break its rules, and users will have to clip or tap on the warning to see the …

Samsung is expected to reveal its Galaxy Note 10 in an Unpacked event on Aug. 7 in Brooklyn, New York. So far there have been few details regarding the phone’s appearance, but a set of leaked images might reveal the look of a “Plus” version of the new Galaxy Note phone.  YouTuber TechTalkTV tweeted images of what could be the Galaxy …

So many people showed up to a San Francisco Board of Supervisors committee hearing on Friday that the city had to open an overflow room. The topic at hand: Uber and Lyft drivers’ rights. The city’s Public Safety and Neighborhood Services Committee convened to discuss a resolution that would support a proposed California state bill that could require Uber and …
