Nintendo has announced a change to its Nintendo Switch 2 game pricing, with digital and physical versions of its titles launching at different prices. This change will begin in May with Yoshi and the Mysterious Book, and because preorders for the game are now live, we know the price difference between the physical and digital versions. The digital version of Yoshi and the Mysterious Book will cost $59.99 and the physical version will cost $69.99, reflecting a $10 price difference. That’s in stark contrast to previously released first-party Nintendo games, like Mario Kart World, Donkey Kong Bananza, and Metroid Prime 4,…

ASUS is preparing to significantly increase the prices of its PCs, with new reports suggesting that the hikes could be steeper than initially expected. The move comes amid growing pressure across the global hardware industry, driven by rising component costs and ongoing supply constraints.

The announcement was made by a senior ASUS executive during a recent product event,…

Arcade racers can be a ton of fun, but they’re rarely especially deep or complex. Screamer is one of the exceptions. Unabashed in its embrace of many classic arcade sensibilities, it also gleefully throws new mechanics, concepts, characters, storytelling tropes, and customization options at the player, keeping the action fast and furious while layering in all sorts of twisty complexity. At first, this depth feels rewarding, but as more and more pieces drop into place, it all starts to feel overwrought and fiddly, distracting from the core fun of a fast, intense race. I appreciate the desire to try new…

Qualcomm’s next flagship chip lineup could be more fragmented than previously expected. A new leak has detailed key specifications of the rumored Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 lineup, reiterating that the company may launch both a standard and a Pro variant this year. The two chips are expected to give smartphone makers more flexibility across price tiers, while also widening the performance gap between regular flagship phones and more premium “Ultra” models. How does the Snapdragon 8 Gen 6 Pro differ from the standard variant? Multiple reports have already pointed to Qualcomm’s dual-chip strategy, and tipster Digital Chat Station has…

Dell has overhauled its commercial PC lineup with four new Pro notebooks: Pro Premium, Pro 7, Pro 5, and Pro 3.

Samsung has officially launched the Galaxy A57 and Galaxy A37. Continuing its push in the mid-range segment, the duo has a mix of familiar hardware and meaningful upgrades. Both devices stick to a tried-and-tested formula, while also refreshing some aspects like performance, camera improvements, and longevity, rather than any major changes. What’s new and improved?

We all know that feeling. You sit down for dinner, put your phone away, and five minutes later, you’re checking it for no particular reason. With apps like TikTok and Instagram that are designed to steal every bit of your attention, it’s hard to stay in the moment.  To cure us of our smartphone obsessions, a new line of devices has emerged that tones down the smartphone experience, giving you access to only essential apps. However, most of those phones are too minimal in my opinion.  Meadow is a new device that aims to change that, striking the perfect balance…

Compact phones in the past came with an asterisk. You get the easier one-handed size, but you also have to accept a smaller battery, tighter thermals, and some other cutbacks that remind you why typical flagships keep getting bigger. That’s where the OnePlus 15T differentiates itself by packing a massive tablet-sized battery in a phone with a 6.32-inch display. It stands out from similarly sized phones like Samsung’s Galaxy S26 prioritize slimness over sheer battery capacity. But there’s a catch, and it has less to do with OnePlus and more to do with where the industry is heading. Small on…

What started as openness is starting to look like a liability. Spotify says AI slop is flooding your music feed, and it’s rolling out a control to limit the damage. The company is testing a feature that lets artists review songs before they appear on their profile. Called Artist Profile Protection, the tool is in beta and adds a checkpoint to a system that has long been easy to game. Artists can screen releases tied to their identity before launch, cutting off a common path used by spam uploads and mislabeled tracks. The pressure is building fast. As music generation…
