When TCL showed off the NXTPAPER 70 Pro at MWC 2026, we reported that the phone was headed to the United States in April. That day is here. The NXTPAPER 70 Pro is now officially available at T-Mobile and Metro by T-Mobile for $199.99, which is roughly half what buyers in Europe are paying for the same phone. The T-Mobile carrier-exclusive deal likely explains the subsidy, but regardless of the reason, it’s an offer you won’t want to miss. The headline feature is NXTPAPER 4.0, TCL’s proprietary eye-friendly display technology. The 6.9-inch FHD+ 120Hz panel reduces glare, cuts blue light…
Think about the last time you checked Google Maps before heading out. Chances are, you weren’t just looking for directions — you were scrolling through photos, skimming reviews, and trusting strangers on the internet to not ruin your plans. Now flip that for a second. Those photos and reviews you rely on? They come from people just like you — people who casually snapped a picture of their coffee or left a quick note about a place. Google wants more of that energy, just with a lot less effort from your side. And with its latest updates, sharing your experiences…
RPCS3 now has official system specs, and the headline is simple. Most PCs from the past several years can already handle PlayStation 3 emulation without much trouble. The team broke things into four hardware tiers, from minimum up to max performance, giving a clearer picture of what’s actually needed. After years of steady optimization, the barrier to entry looks much lower than many expected. Even handheld PCs can reach recommended results in many titles, which says a lot about current efficiency. Most modern desktops should run a large portion of the PS3 library without major issues. Even entry-level hardware makes…
Southwest Airlines is implementing a strict safety change, and you should be aware of it before your next flight. Starting April 20, passengers flying Southwest will only be allowed to bring one portable charger or power bank with them. Not only that, but you also cannot place the charger in the overhead bin or checked luggage, and it must stay within sight at all times when in use. The rule is stricter than what the International Civil Aviation Organization recommended last month, which capped portable chargers at two per passenger. Why is this suddenly a big deal? According to an…
Google’s Pixel phones now rank ahead of both iPhone and Galaxy devices on repairability, based on a 2026 scorecard that reshapes how smartphone durability gets measured. The update leans on stricter European grading that focuses on what happens during an actual fix, not just whether parts exist. Motorola leads with a B+, followed by Google at C-, while Samsung drops to a D and Apple lands at a D-. The spread comes down to how many steps it takes to reach key components and how complicated common repairs have become. This shift ties directly to ownership costs. A phone that’s…
Netflix is detailing an AI video tool that goes beyond simple cleanup. Its system, called VOID, cuts elements from footage while keeping everything else behaving in a way that still feels grounded. That marks a shift for AI video editing. Existing tools can erase unwanted elements, but they often leave behind movement that feels off, like objects floating or actions stopping without cause. VOID focuses on what happens after an edit, rebuilding the sequence so the outcome still follows believable cause and effect. The research shows the model can adjust interactions in response to changes, so if a supporting object…
The original Stranger Things series ended on December 31, 2025, after five seasons and nearly a decade of terrifying adventures in Hawkins. But Netflix was never going to let one of its biggest franchises simply fade into the Upside Down. Less than four months after the finale, the universe is expanding again with an animated spinoff called Stranger Things: Tales from ’85. The whole core gang is back, there’s a bold new character joining the mix, and a new monster lurking under the snow. So, here’s everything you need to know before the animated Stranger Things show arrives. What is…
I’ve never been a fan of Apple’s MacBook, but I have to admit that the platform is getting a lot of things right. Living with Windows has been a hassle recently, and Apple has been inching ahead for all the right reasons. While I still rely on Windows, familiarity alone isn’t the whole game anymore. In 2026, there are some macOS conveniences that feel less like luxury perks and more like basic computing features Microsoft should have figured out by now. And the annoying part is that Apple’s advantage is not always raw power or flashy AI. A lot of…
As NASA’s Artemis II astronauts journey back to Earth following their breathtaking close encounter with the moon earlier this week, the space agency has just shared some stunning footage (below) of the rocket launch that sent the crew on its way on April 1. The close-up tracking shot shows the awesome power of the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket’s four core RS-25 engines together and its two solid rocket boosters as the 98-meter-tall vehicle roars away from the launchpad at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. @NASA has just released some EXTRAORDINARY tracking footage from Artemis II’s launch just one…
Apple is leading the pack in one laptop category, but it’s not an award anyone would want to flaunt. The MacBooks have taken the throne as the worst in laptop repairability. The latest Failing the Fix report from the U.S PIRG Education Fund ranked these notebooks at the bottom. In the 2026 edition of the annual report, the group measured both major smartphones and laptop brands on how repairable their products were. What do the rankings reveal? The report used European repair data and additional adjustments tied to Right to Repair lobbying and support. In the laptop section, the PIRG…
