Sonos calls the Roam “the best-sounding ultraportable speaker ever made.” That’s a big claim, so needless to say, as soon as I got my hands on a review sample, I was eager to hear whether it lived up to that lofty billing. I’m happy to report that to a large extent it does, at least …

Following the release of the Mi 11, Xiaomi put on a high-profile virtual event in late March to show off its flagship Mi 11 lineup. Out of the bevy of phones announced at Xiaomi’s “mega” launch event, the Mi 11 Ultra was one of the showstoppers, packing luxe features in addition to its headline feature: a second display. Located on …

Klipsch has a knack for making gorgeous audio gear, and the Klipsch T5 II true wireless earbuds are no exception. They look nothing short of stunning — especially that gorgeous brushed-metal case. A modest update to the T5, these earbuds debuted only last year and feature various improvements to the sound, styling and ergonomics. If the $200 price tag has …

The AirPods Pro are excellent wireless earbuds with effective noise canceling that’s almost as good as a pair of over-ear headphones (like, say, the AirPods Max). They also work seamlessly with the iPhone and other Apple devices. But other options cost less than the AirPods‘ asking price, such as the Galaxy Buds Live, Amazon Echo Buds and Jabra Elite 75t. I used both the AirPods Pro and …

Until today I didn’t know the Colop E-Mark Create portable color printer existed. And despite the bizarre name, it’s sitting in my cart. Because it will be mine. [Whispers] It will be mine. Maybe my enthusiasm for this thing is irrational, but it starts with this: Today only, and while supplies last, Meh has the Colop E-Mark Create portable color …

Here’s an April Fools’ prank I could have lived without. Tuesday the thermometer hit 70 degrees; this morning, 26 and a blizzard. Oh, Michigan, you so crazy. Also crazy: Some of today’s deals. I mean, 99 cents to cover your iPhone screen in protective glass? Yes, please. As always, these items are available for a limited time and while supplies …

Most people buy their phones from one of the Big Three carriers, a move that often ropes them into lengthy service contracts. Case in point: At Verizon right now (but ending Sunday, April 4), you can get the Samsung Galaxy S20 FE 5G for free with a new line of service. That service must include one of Verizon’s Unlimited plans, …

DJI’s new $1,299 (£1,249, AU$2,099) FPV drone is here and its incredible speed and awesome first-person perspective means it’s a flying experience unlike anything else I’ve tried before.  FPV stands for “first person view.” And while all drones offer a point-of-view from the front of the craft, it’s been up to hobbyists and racers to move that view from the phone …

Happy Wednesday, fellow cheapskates! A few random notes before we dive into today’s deals: Godzilla vs. Kong debuts today on HBO Max and I am here for it. (So is CNET’s Jen Bisset, who reviewed the new movie.) Alas, there’s no longer a free trial available so you can sneaky-sneaky watch the movie for free, but even if you sign …
