I actually like cilantro a lot, so it’s not that. I think the lavender is just way too strong. 

Where in this review are you seeing commentary about bezels being bad? Read more

Please tell me where I knock the G Power for having big bezels? The word bezel doesn’t even appear in the review, and the only time I talk about bezels is when I mention the phone has a smallish chin, which it does.

Extra credit for the bias lighting, love it. 

We really don’t give projectors enough love because they can be a pain in the ass to set up, but when done right they’re awesome.

Lol, that’s fair. 

Sorry, I think our CMS ate the link. I’ve updated the story, but I’ll drop the link here too. Read more

That’s still undecided. There were rumors that Samsung doesn’t have plans to make a new Note for 2021, but then Samsung officials denied that. Read more

It would depend on the specific Jabras you’re talking about, but if you have a Samsung phone, the Galaxy Buds Pro ought to be on the short list of your top contenders. 

Max volume is always a bit tricky because it’s somewhat subjective and depends on how good (or bad) your ears are. I would say the Galaxy Buds Pro get loud, but they stop short of really bumping, most likely to prevent people from causing any lasting damage from too many decibels.

Absolutely, a lot of people might not consider something like this for IT use, but in the right situation, it makes a lot more sense in that environment than it would for a typical home buyer. The 8GB RAM limit is definitely a bummer.  Read more

Yes, that is very much the case here. Windows 10x can’t arrive soon enough for devices like this. 

I wouldn’t be so sure about that. I suspect M.2 SSDs like a Samsung 970 Evo Plus would pass Sony’s requirements, and with current prices for one of those currently going for $300 for a 2TB drive, that seems reasonable. Read more

Since Kinja seems to have eaten Catie’s login info (talk about timing), I just want to pop in and stir up stuff by saying we don’t need touchpads on TV remotes. That is all. 

Also another interesting thing to think about is that part of the reason why Apple is switching to ARM-based chips is to bring more of its product design in-house. Read more

No matter how many times I hear it, AirPods Studio or AirPods Studios never sounds right. 

I would, but it’s my wife’s Xbox One, and everyone knows one of the cardinal rules of tech is that you do NOT remove stickers on other people’s gadgets. 

I didn’t think it needed to be stated explicitly, but Sony could easily move an OK/confirm button off to the side or below, there’s even room for an OK button between the Back and Menu buttons. 

If you get an unlocked model and pop your sim in, you should be just fine to use 4G LTE, no plan upgrade need. Down the line if you want 5G, you can switch to a new plan at that time.
