I have a strict only-mechanical policy when it comes to keyboards. I love the feel of mechanical switches under my fingers when I’m typing and gaming, and I rely on the precise travel and solid contact the keys make as they actuate. If you’ve never used anything but a mushy membrane-style keyboard before, you owe …

At today’s Spring Loaded event, Apple’s newest iPad Pro was arguably the star of the show, possibly outshining the new M1-equipped iMac. The new iPad has its own M1 chip, 5G connectivity, an all-new Liquid Retina XDR screen and other crazy features like Center Stage, a feature that pans and zooms the camera to keep you front and center no …

I’m planning to wring at least one more year out of my iPhone X — or, at least, I was, until I got a look at this deal. Because would I like to upgrade to the iPhone 12? Sure. Am I willing to pay $829 or more to do so? Hard pass. But check this: Today only, you can buy …

I often see deals for security cameras paired with smart displays, but doesn’t pairing a tablet make more sense? You still get a spacious screen so you can check what’s happening, but it’s fully portable rather than fixed in one spot. If you like that idea, check this deal: Today only, Amazon is offering the Fire HD 8 tablet and …

Update: Sorry, folks, but the seller has expired the promo code.  Shortly after the world began to social distance last this year, I discovered that my laptop didn’t even come with a webcam. It wasn’t a feature I had cared about until that moment. The bad news is that, even if your laptop does have a webcam, chances are it’s …

Update: As a Cheapskate pointed out in the comments, a differently branded version of this same radio now selling for just $16, no codes or coupons required. If this sells out, the Dodocool version is still available for $24, at least for the time being. Of course, these deals can and do expire at the drop of a hat, so …

Today, let’s get our Boy/Girl Scout on and “be prepared.” If you own a car, you should probably own a portable air compressor in case of low or flat tires. My old one was a hassle because you had to add air, check the pressure with a separate gauge, add air again, and on and on. Hassle city. Ah, but …

This story is part of Mother’s Day Gift Guide. CNET editors round up the hottest gadgets for Mom this year. Mixtiles are 8×8-inch framed photos — “tiles” — you can easily hang and rehang, no nails required. They rely on residue-free sticky pads, which make them simple to adjust or even relocate. I’m a big fan of the product, a …

Shopping for a laptop? Good deals can be hard to find these days because the pandemic sent everyone home for a year. The ensuing run on laptops made affordable ones about as scarce as the PS5. Good news: Sub-$1,000 laptops still get marked down to even better prices occasionally, though, and right now there’s a trio of solid laptops on …

Update: Sorry, folks, but the vendor ran low on inventory and expired the code. I’ll let you know when a deal on this product comes around again. Everyone needs an electric screwdriver. Of course, an electric drill can do double duty as a screwdriver, but many drills are simply too bulky and can’t fit in the spaces where you need …
