You’ve heard this song before: The biggest, fanciest TV in the world is still going to suffer from mediocre sound, because a flat screen leaves little space for decent speakers. That’s why I’m constantly recommending soundbars (see: The best soundbars for 2019). Of course, usually those are big bars intended to go with big screens. What about the smaller TV …

Amazon has maintained a program for years called “Add-on items,” which restricts certain inexpensive products from shipping unless you hit a $25 threshold. Amazon says the program has let it offer really cheap stuff that’s otherwise too costly to ship on its own. Well, it ends up that Amazon quietly shrank the size of its “Add-on” program, making it easier …

Netflix made a push for Asian subscribers on Thursday by expanding its cheap mobile-only subscription to Malaysia. It was previously only available in India, after being revealed in July. The service costs 17 ringgit (around $4), and allows one phone or tablet to view a standard-definition (480-pixel) stream at a time. It’s slightly more expensive than the 199 rupees (about …

Hold onto your wallets: It’s impulse-buy time. Today I bring you a pair of speaker deals that are just plain difficult to pass up, even if you think you already have all the speakers you need. Maybe there’s a gift-giving occasion in your future. Or a shower. Whatever the case, I recommend grabbing these before they’re gone — which may …

Honor is a sub-brand of Chinese firm Huawei, meaning it’s banned from using Google services (including Android) just like its parent company. Why, then, has the new Honor 9X arrived in Europe running Android 9? Honor hasn’t found a cheeky loophole, it’s actually that the phone was in development (and indeed on sale in China) before the ban was fully …

Google‘s Play Store reportedly labeled the keyboard app Fleksy as being appropriate only for ages 12 and up because of a middle finger emoji, while Google’s own Gboard app is rated suitable for all ages, despite containing the same emoji. The Fleksy keyboard app has been available in the European Play Store for about eight years and had a rating of …

Google’s Pixel 4 and 4 XL are now shipping and while we’ve known about the device for months, on Thursday the folks at iFixit took Google’s latest XL phone apart to see just what goes into the handset.  While much of it is relatively unsurprising, the teardown reveals just what Google is doing with Soli — its radar tech that allows …

Twitter‘s efforts to make itself a healthier place helped it rake in users even as controversy over its policies heats up with the US moving into a new election cycle. The user growth, however, didn’t translate into strong revenue or profit gains.  On Thursday, Twitter said that 145 million users logged in and were shown ads daily during the third quarter, up …

Disney Plus is designed to be the one-stop streaming shop for all things Disney, but Disney Plus will have some holes: Some popular titles, including a large number of Marvel movies, won’t be available at launch, and others will have to leave the service for periods of time.  Speaking Tuesday at Vanity Fair’s New Establishment Summit, Disney CEO Bob Iger suggested …
