But when Samsung introduced its first Galaxy S phone nine years ago, it was a different world altogether. In 2010, the Galaxy …

Howdy, cheeps! I’m on the road this week, but I’m leaving you with a rerun of one of my favorite deals — which I last shared almost exactly a year ago. Regular readers know that I have some anger issues when it comes to Microsoft Office. I won’t dive too deeply into the reasons, but here’s an example: My poor, …

Google is back on the Apple Watch. An updated version of Google Keep, a note-taking app, is available on all devices, including the Apple Watch, the company said Tuesday on Twitter.

Just like last year (you remember last year, right? The good and the bad), CNET will be covering news and announcements from every major show and event …

It looks like Samsung’s got a pair of lemon-drop Galaxy Buds to go with its banana-yellow budget Galaxy S10E. WinFuture has posted purported renders of the upcoming headphones — we’ve previously seen them in white — and while we’ll probably struggle to decide exactly what shade of yellow the new Galaxy ensemble is, they’re certainly appealing. We’ll find out for sure whether or not …

At first glance, Sphero’s newest robotic toy looks like an RC car. In a lot of ways, that’s what it is. Sphero’s co-founder and Chief Creative Officer, Adam Wilson, drives the tread-wheeled little tank-thing around with a phone app. It’s zippy, can spin and pivot, and has good traction.
