First Nokia life-proof phone? No. This is Nokia’s first life-proof phone.

256gb won’t even hold COD. If you are a hardcore pc gamer you are going to need atleast a few terabyte.

Nintendo, July 6: “We know everybody wants a Switch Pro, but you know what? We have no competition. We can slap an OLED screen onto a 4 year old game console and people will buy it because we’re in a league of our own.”

I’m kind of thinking the higher price may be worth it for a VR headset that doesn’t require a Facebook account (I’m looking, hatefully, at you Oculus Quest 2).

Had they come out and said it had enhanced processing power to improve framerates and resolutions, I would have probably planned on upgrading. Read more

Yup. I play my Switch mostly in handheld mode but the Lite didn’t interest me because I don’t want to lose the ability to dock it. Between the bigger OLED screen and the wide kickstand, I’m a happy camper.

I always loved transparent/translucent tech. I like the way it demystifies the whole thing, and gives the end user a glimpse into how everything comes together. I’m ready to see that trend come back.

Dave Grohl is from the DMV and pays homage and due respect to all Black artistry including GO-GO. I disagree with your header as he has always been about the music of our folks with humility and reverence. Always.

I, for one, will not be surprised when Ron DeSantis signs into law the “Don’t Blame Rising Sea Levels On Human Caused Global Climate Change” Act that will put anyone in jail for mentioning this and give immunity to wingnuts who commit crimes against anyone who does.

I’m so excited that Amazon is not limiting their cheap knockoff brands to their website and will include their Android store in Windows while Satya dumps the Cortana corpse in an unmarked Redmond dumpster.

I don’t know which group I dislike more, large scale crypto miners, or GPU scalpers, but I’m glad that both are being injured here.

As a developer I would love to have a more capable Switch platform. Particularly if it was a generational upgrade that retained backward compatibility. 1:1. Read more

Until recently I didn’t really see why anyone would want a Switch Pro. I thought the system’s graphics performed fine, especially for a portable console, and I didn’t see the point in updating the system.... and then I watched yesterday’s Nintendo Direct. They showed footage of that new Guardians of the Galaxy game… Read more

That’s because in addition to losing your primary method for calling or messaging people, the rise of digital car keys and smart locks means that if you don’t have access to your phone, you also might not have access to your home or vehicle, too, which could leave you truly stranded in an emergency.

Sorry to write this here, but since Deadspin has resolved itself into an empty echo chamber that disallow any commenters and criticism.

We can learn all this stuff about you and use it to target you with ads but telling you those details? Now that’s where we draw the line.

I have been looking at these and can’t decide on what configuration I like. I’m with you I don’t like that there isn’t an AMD option available. I would prefer an AMD CPU and Nvidia GPU combo. I may wait to see if that happens.
