Apple‘s new Studio Display XDR is here, and it’s a beast. The 27-inch 5K screen hits 2000 nits of peak brightness, uses a mini-LED backlight with thousands of dimming zones, and finally brings a 120Hz refresh rate to Apple’s pro monitor lineup. But there is a fine print problem. That silky ProMotion experience won’t run on most existing Macs and iPads. You’ll need very specific hardware to get the full 120Hz. Which devices get the full 120Hz Apple’s compatibility list draws a hard line. The M5 iPad Pro is the only tablet that can drive the Studio Display XDR at…

Google‘s March Pixel Drop is rolling out now, and it’s giving one of the Pixel‘s best quiet features its own home. The Now Playing tool, which automatically figures out songs playing around you, is now a standalone app. That means your history of discovered tracks finally has a place to live. You can actually revisit that song you heard at the coffee shop last week. The update turns a background trick into something useful. Now Playing has long been a Pixel thing, silently catching music without needing to Shazam it. The new app adds a history tab that logs everything…

The drone industry is entering a pivotal moment. After years of chasing bigger sensors, heavier airframes, and complex pro-grade systems, the fastest-growing segment in 2026 is the opposite: sub-249g lightweight drones designed for real users who want effortless portability without sacrificing cinematic quality. Into this shift arrives the Skyrover S1, a compact drone built around one belief — cinematic aerial photography should be accessible to everyone, not just professionals. With a 4K60 camera, a 3-axis mechanical gimbal, forward obstacle sensing, and long-range connectivity, the S1 delivers high-quality visuals while remaining travel-friendly, beginner-friendly, and affordable. It’s truly a smart choice for…

OPPO is preparing to expand its flagship ambitions beyond China with the upcoming Oppo Find X9 Ultra, the successor to one of 2025’s most camera-focused smartphones. The company has confirmed that the new Ultra model will launch in select global markets later this year, marking the first time a Find-series Ultra device will receive an international release. The announcement signals a major shift for OPPO’s premium smartphone strategy. Historically, its Ultra-tier devices have been reserved for the Chinese market, with global users receiving slightly toned-down variants. With the Find X9 Ultra, however, the company appears ready to compete directly with…

The Galaxy S26 Ultra just landed, Samsung’s most capable phone yet — and it’s walking straight into a fight with the iPhone 17 Pro Max, which has been quietly making Apple fans very smug since last September. One runs Android, one runs iOS, both cost over a thousand dollars, and exactly one of them is right for you. Here’s how to figure out which. Price and availability The S26 Ultra is $1,300 for 256GB and $1,800 if you want the 1TB with 16GB RAM. The base S26 and S26+ both got $100 pricier this year — the Ultra somehow escaped…

I’m going to be blunt: this shouldn’t have happened. For weeks, the assumption, actually, the understanding, was that the Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra shipped with a 10-bit display. That’s not some luxury extra in 2026 for an “Ultra” flagship; it’s a baseline expectation. And yes, even Samsung’s messaging leaned in that direction. Reviewers believed it. Customers believed it. Only after mounting pressure from the community did Samsung finally confirm the panel is, in fact, 8-bit. How can Samsung be so bad at everything related to launching a smartphone after all these years? We were told numerous times in San Francisco…
