A 610Hz QHD gaming monitor panel is the kind of spec that makes even jaded PC gamers pause. If it ships as promised, it could make motion look cleaner during the moments that decide a round, when you’re flicking, tracking, and correcting in a split second. What makes this one notable is the combo. It’s a 27-inch 2560×1440 LCD panel, so it’s chasing extreme speed without dropping down to 1080p. That matters if you like the sharper look of 1440p but still play competitively. It’s still early, though. This is being shown as a panel demo by Tianma at CES…

All the way back in 2021, Apple put a notch on its laptops. Five generations later, it’s still here. But what’s truly surprising is that Apple hasn’t played around with any meaningful utilities around it, unlike the Dynamic Island that gives a functional twist to the pill-shaped hole on your iPhone’s screen.  Thankfully, the developer community has built a handful of cool apps that turn the notch into an activity hub. From music playback and calendar control to a tiny viewfinder for the webcam, the notch can now do a lot.  In my most recent trip to the Mac community…

OnePlus might finally tackle one of the most annoying things about wireless earbuds. The company is reportedly working on a new feature that alerts you when an earbud slips out of your ear, reducing the chances of losing it when you’re not paying attention. Android Authority spotted the upcoming feature, called “Earbud fall detection,” while digging through the latest version of OnePlus’ Hey Melody companion app (version 116.3.0). A screenshot of its settings page suggests that the feature will play a sound on both earbuds when it detects that an earbud has fallen out. It will also send a notification…
