When watching TV, we most commonly listen to audio through speakers or a soundbar to enjoy a fully immersive experience. But this isn’t always possible. You might be a night owl who likes to watch in the late-night hours. Maybe you have a baby at home and want to curl up with a movie once they’ve gone down for a nap, but don’t want to disturb them. College students residing in dorms or anyone living with roommates knows the frustration of not being able to watch a show or even play video games while the other person is studying, sleeping,…
Ah, the MoonSwatch. It would be fair to say Swatch and Omega’s unexpected love-in didn’t get off to the best start. But fast-forward a couple of years from the sheer pandemonium this celestial collection sparked, and the MoonSwatch family is now a two-dozen-plus family of watches as varied as they are characterful. Ditch the Velcro strap in favour of a premium alternative, and the Bioceramic Swatch can look properly upmarket, too, able to compete with some of the best watches around. But which to choose? Some of the latest MoonSwatches are still tricky to buy since they’re only stocked in…
Apps are big business and one of the main reasons for the success of iOS and Apple’s ubiquitous phone. Android may shift more units than Apple’s mobile platform, but the App Store gets the lion’s share of the best free apps, from high-end audio tools through to cutting-edge education offerings. So welcome to our guide to the best free iPhone and iPad apps. But what can you get when unwilling to spend anything at all? Actually, loads; as our selection shows, iOS and iPadOS apps are available for all manner of tasks, from sprucing up photos and composing music to keeping…
Tablets have become go-to gadgets for a lot of people, sitting neatly between a phone and a laptop. The good news? You don’t need to splash out on a flagship model to get something worthwhile. Today’s budget tablets pack in sharp screens, solid performance, and plenty of features for far less money. Whether you’re after a device for streaming, gaming on the go, reading, or light work, there’s a wallet-friendly option out there. It wasn’t always like this. Early budget tablets often felt like a compromise – slow processors, flimsy builds, and a bare-bones app selection. But things have moved…
Another year is in the rear view mirror, and we’re no closer to clearing our gaming backlog. 2025 has been a banner year for shiny new hardware with the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2, and a number of long-awaited sequels made appearances, so the list has only gotten longer. And that’s not counting the sheer number of re-releases and remasters, which surely deserve their own list. This has also been a year where some of the best games haven’t been from the big blockbuster publishers but smaller indie developers. It helps that these don’t break the bank, given the…
If you’re looking for a fantasy show to watch on Netflix, you have a lot of options. But if you’re looking for a good fantasy show, you’ll have a harder time. The Witcher started out with a lot of promise, but has since been savaged by fans. Shadow and Bone was looking pretty good for a while, but Netflix canceled it after the second season, long before the story had wrapped up. Heard of Netflix’s Arthurian TV show Cursed? Neither has anyone else. So Netflix has had some trouble landing this plane, but they did come close once: The Sandman…
The weekend is here, and we want to make sure you spend it as enjoyably as possible. You have some time to spare, but not THAT much time with everything else going on, so what’s a Netflix miniseries you can watch that’ll entertain you without forcing you to spend TOO much time on the couch? These three series will occupy your day, but won’t take longer than that, and will show you a great time besides. Baby Reindeer The best comedy-drama-thriller around Baby Reindeer is the lightest offering on this list, which says something about the rest of the entries…
Smart TVs already make it ridiculously easy to consume series, movies, and videos. You’ve got YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, and Hotstar, among others, everything in one place, just a tap away. And honestly, that already feels like more than enough. But I never thought I’d be installing a browser on my smart TV, let alone using it almost every day. Now that I have, there’s genuinely no going back. This isn’t a regular browser we’re used to using on our phones and laptops. It’s built differently, and it actually pulls everything into one place: websites, games, live streams, videos, and…
Tinkering with older electronics brings an extra layer of joy to my life. While it doesn’t even feel like it’s been that long, the iPod Classic was originally released in 2001 and has already been discontinued for over a decade. Rather than let my iPod sit in a drawer destined to a life of obscurity, I decided that I should attempt to breathe new life into one of my favorite media players. After sweat, tears, and a bit of blood (more on that later), I reinvigorated my 6th-generation iPod Classic with a slew of new parts, and it’s now become…
