What’s the best gaming console? That’s a question gamers have debated for as long as consoles have existed. The truth is, it’s one of the most subjective discussions in the world of technology.

If you’re after a console for family gaming, your choice will probably differ from one geared toward solo adventures. And if handheld gaming is your thing, we have a…

Apple’s upcoming launches are always ones to watch. 2025’s iPhone 17 will be no different, and it’s at the top of my list of the best upcoming phones. But it’s the iPhones that are coming afterwards that seem more interesting right now. Apple’s roadmap for the iPhone has looked the same for a while now – four new models, a September release, and the same “you won’t believe how slightly better this camera is” spiel. But, the tech giant has been teasing big things to come for a while. A leaked memo from Apple’s head hardware honcho said that “big things…

ChatGPT, our beloved AI assistant. It’s gotten so good that, to the untrained eye, it’s almost impossible to tell whether a piece of writing came from a person or a machine. However, as polished as it seems on the surface, ChatGPT and other LLMs still leave fingerprints. 5 Buzzwords Some words start out sounding smart, but the moment they start showing up in every paragraph, they lose meaning. There’s a specific flavor of language that just screams it was written by AI. Not because the words are wrong, but because no actual human talks like this unless they’re trying to…

Spotify was my main music streaming service for years, so I didn’t think I’d ever make the switch when I tried YouTube Music. But before long, I realized I wasn’t using Spotify anymore—and I didn’t even miss it. Now, YouTube Music is the only app I use. 4 I Like Listening to Unofficial Covers and Rare Music The biggest reason why I think YouTube Music is the best music streaming platform is because of its vast library of unofficial content. While other popular services like Spotify focus primarily on official releases and studio albums, YouTube Music taps into its huge…

Nothing frustrates me more than stuttering, broken playback on my smart TV. I tried a few other fixes to solve my smart TV buffering problems, but after changing my smart TV DNS settings, I’m living in a buffering and stutter-free world. Changing DNS Improved My TV Streaming I’ve experienced the frustration of waiting for shows to buffer or apps to load. What I didn’t realize was that a quick DNS change could solve many of these annoyances. DNS (Domain Name System) is a protocol that translates website names into the IP addresses needed to access your streaming services. When your…

In late April 2024, the YouTube app on my LG smart TV started reducing videos to 480p quality. If you can believe it, YouTube still hasn’t fixed this issue over a year later. It’s so irritating that I’ve documented the tale to share. YouTube Forces Low Quality for Certain Videos At first, I couldn’t figure out why some videos dropped to 480p while others played at max resolution. After testing, I narrowed down the problem: this only happens when increasing the playback speed of 60FPS videos. Standard 30 or 24FPS videos are not subject to this problem, and if you…

Knowing which the best iPhone used to be easy – you just had to choose the colour and the storage capacity. It was guaranteed to be among the best smartphones on sale. But now, things are not so simple. From Mini to Plus to Pro to Pro Max, Apple’s flagship phones ship in more variants than ever before. And just to muddy the waters further, the mobile maker still sells a few of its former headline handsets from previous generations, as well as the entry-level SE for buyers on a budget. So there’s an Apple smartphone for everyone. The tricky…

AI is terrible. AI will improve our future. Whether you love or hate AI, holding both those thoughts in your head at the same time might make it hurt. But you should. Because last week, two industry giants perfectly demonstrated how both statements can be true. Yes, AI can be a menace and a boon – it all depends on how it’s being used. Right now, Netflix and Meta are using AI in very different ways. One is solving problems. The other is inviting us to stare into the abyss. Netflix first. Its plans have – for now – even convinced an AI sceptic like me. That’s…
