Quick delivery has always been one of Amazon’s core tenets and a significant reason behind the company’s success. It started with Amazon offering 1-day and 2-day deliveries to its Prime members, which later expanded to same-day delivery for eligible products.  The company is now aiming to speed up deliveries further and has introduced two new options: 1-hour and 3-hour delivery, available across hundreds of cities in the United States. The new options cover over 90,000 products, ranging from pantry staples and cleaning supplies to over-the-counter medications, electronics, toys, and clothing. How does it work and how much will it cost…

Tesla’s new Roadster could finally debut next month, but there’s an emphasis on “hopefully”

Tesla actually announcing the next Roadster is becoming more of a meme than a reality at this point. Even Elon Musk leaned into it with an April 1, 2026 reveal date.

AirPods Max 2 vs. Sony WH-1000XM6: Should you get the 9 or 9 flagship headphone?

Even after dropping the new iPhone 17e, new iPad Air, and a couple of new M5-powered MacBooks (including the brand-new MacBook Neo), Apple wasn’t done with its product announcements. The AirPods Max 2 came out of nowhere on March 17, 2026, catching the tech world off guard. As the long-awaited successor of the 2020 AirPods Max, the 2026 AirPods Max had a lot to prove.
