I’ll be honest: Even before the coronavirus the Netflix well was running a little dry for me, especially now that I’ve blown through Ozark season 3. Fortunately, lots of other streaming services have stepped up with longer free trials for people stuck at home, meaning you no longer have to try to shoehorn an entire season or series into just a week or …

Apple packed a lot of great features in its Apple Watch Series 4: a faster processor, brighter, bigger screen, louder speaker and an FDA-cleared electrocardiogram feature (ECG or EKG) that can help screen for potentially life-threatening conditions. But for a lot of people, the best thing about the Series 4 is that it made the previous-generation Apple Watch that much more …

This is a very weird time to be writing about deals. It seems trivial in comparison with what’s happening across the country right now. I’ll simply say that Father’s Day is coming, and if you’re looking for something special to give Dad, I think this is a great choice. Plus, it’s notably on sale for the second-lowest price ever.

On the heels of a reset of the Omen gaming brand and a new gaming desktop, HP announced a complete redesign of its 15.6-inch laptop, the Omen 15. Available to order today from Best Buy starting at $1,250 and directly from HP starting at less than $1,000, the updated design has its smallest footprint yet, but it’s filled with the …

I’ve long been a fan of the Amazfit Bip budget smartwatch. But the name? A bit too cutesy. How about something a little more manly, like Razor or Stealth or…T-Rex! Now we’re talking. Indeed, on the merits of its ferocious moniker alone, I like Amazfit’s latest wearable. Thankfully, it’s also a genuinely cool watch, and an outright bargain with this …

If you’re like me, maybe you didn’t even realize your laptop didn’t have a webcam built in until your first pandemic-era Zoom call from home. That’s right — it turns out that a lot of modern laptops skip the webcam entirely, or install such a terrible one that it’s barely usable. If you need to snag a webcam for this …
