The new generation of Samsung Galaxy is guaranteed to be near the top of every Android fan’s upcoming phones list.

Want to buy the best projector? You’re not alone.

But finding the right one isn’t as simple as picking the brightest or biggest model you can afford. Projectors vary wildly…

VLC is more than a video player — 4 features you didn’t know it had

VLC media player has been the default video player for most since 2001. If you have used a computer in the last two decades, you have the orange traffic cone installed on your PC. It’s one of the first software programs I install the moment I boot any new PC. And why not? It supports any and all file types you throw at it. If you have a video, VLC will play it. No questions asked. But like most users, I’ve been using VLC solely as a playback engine. But that was until I decided to open it without a…

I tried Razer’s anime-girl-in-a-bottle, and I have so many questions

I love CES for the weird and the wacky, and Razer has truly delivered for me. I first saw Razer’s Project AVA at CES 2025, where Razer presented its AI tool as a gaming aid but didn’t seem entirely sure where it was going with it. How wrong we were. At CES 2026, Razer presented AVA as a fully-equipped visual AI desk companion that learns about everything you do, rather than just your gaming preferences. AVA is still very much game-integrated, but Razer is adjusting its focus to a more general audience with the idea that you’ll have your “enthusiastic…

Critics hated these 6 movie classics — and they were wrong

When you’re looking for a new movie to watch, checking out what the critics can say can be helpful, if not definitive. But a lot of the time, what critics enjoy and what general audiences enjoy don’t line up. And then sometimes, the critics get it so wrong that you wonder why anyone ever listens to them about anything. That’s what we’re talking about today: movie classics that, for whatever reason, were torn to shreds when they first came out. The Shining Proud Razzie award nominee The Shining is now considered a classic horror movie with lots of iconic moments…

Don’t buy a Samsung Frame TV until you see this alternative

I’ve been a Samsung Frame TV believer for a while now. The 55-inch Frame TV in my main home office serves as my primary display, and there’s a 32-inch model above the desk in our basement guest bedroom. So when we needed a bigger TV for that same room, buying another Samsung felt like the safe choice. Then I spotted the Hisense 65-inch CanvasTV and decided to take a chance on something different. After living with both brands, I’m genuinely surprised by how much Hisense gets right. Our basement guest bedroom doubles as a flex office, which is why there’s…

Here’s some of the tech I saw at CES 2026 that nobody asked for

Over the past week, over a hundred thousand people flocked to CES 2026 in Las Vegas to see the latest tech and concepts of future devices – the Stuff team included. We saw plenty of excellent tech there: from incredibly thin TVs and smart LEGO bricks to rollable laptop concepts and AI-guided at-home hair clippers. For the first time in a while, I felt this CES brought back the idea of gadgets – stuff that gets nerds like me excited. But not all of the tech was exciting. In fact, I saw some gadgets that I can’t imagine anybody has…

My perfect retro gaming controller didn’t show up at CES – but it’s never felt closer

The iPhone’s key innovation was being a blank canvas. Apple’s slab of glass could become anything. Without a physical keyboard hogging space and locking in a set orientation, apps relied on virtual controls. Any interface was possible, limited only by the imagination (and competence) of the developer. This was just as true for games. The tiny snag: virtual controls turned out to be terrible for traditional games. And back then, there were no physical controllers to fill the void. So the best early iPhone titles leaned into the problem. Touch-first curio Eliss turned mobile play into an intricate game of finger Twister. But inevitably, people clamoured for old…
