Don’t panic people, but a Nintendo Switch 2 has officially been announced (sort of). In a Tweet sent on 7 May 2024, Nintendo President Furukawa stated “we will make an announcement about the successor to Nintendo Switch within this fiscal year. It will have been over nine years since we announced the existence of Nintendo Switch back in March 2015.” Given that its innovative hybrid console remains as popular as ever, it’s easy to see why it hasn’t been in much of a hurry.  We’re trying to subdue our excitement somewhat. In the same Tweet, Furukawa went on to say…

Apple is holding a special event today where it is expected to launch new iPads and a revamped Apple Pencil after no updates to the lineup in 2023. Indeed, it’s clear this ‘Let Loose’ event is centred around the Apple Pencil (and so premium iPads) because of the animation to promote the event, which features – yep – an Apple Pencil. There are also various illustrated versions of the Apple logo (further down this article) to promote the event and such artwork normally relates to the iPad lineup. So will it be an exciting launch? Apple certainly seems to believe…

In today’s world, smartphones are the go-to devices for remote music listening. But decades ago, the iconic Sony Walkman was the preferred choice for listening to music on walks, runs, or just lounging around. The Sony Walkman product line held immense cultural significance. Sony introduced it in 1979, and it lasted without interruption until 2010. Although the company has occasionally released new models since then, they aren’t targeting the masses like the halcyon days of cassette. Sony originally called their portable cassette player the Roundabout in the United States and the Freestyle in other countries like Australia and the United…

We vividly recall during the reveal of one of the Apple TV, Apple CEO Tim Cook bullishly claimed the “future of television is apps”. Which is fine – but that was the present of television at the time, if you owned a smart TV or rival streaming device. And then it kind of fell apart. Today, there aren’t that many amazing Apple TV apps, but also there’s a lot of junk to fish through on the Apple TV App Store. Boo. But there are exceptions for your shiny new Apple TV 4K (or, er, older Apple TV ‘not 4K’). This…

I received an email from Netflix this week, promising me a glorious 35% saving on my monthly plan. How exciting! With streaming costs skyrocketing, it sure was nice to discover Netflix is different. Netflix cares. Instead of paying the usual £7.99 per month, I’m now going to pay less for “better video quality” and “more devices”. Oh, and a Netflix plan “with adverts”. Wait. What? Fortunately, this wasn’t a surprise. I’d been preparing for this day ever since writing about how Netflix loves adverts more than it loves you. Mostly by grumbling about Netflix binning the ad-free Basic plan I’ve been clinging…

Minifig masterpieces The Millennium Falcon ($169.99/£149.99 • 1353 pieces) gets a third entry here, in its ‘middle ground’ incarnation. Smaller than the UCS model. Larger than the little display set. Based on The Rise of Skywalker’s take. But we won’t hold that against it. Want to get your stomp on again? AT-TE Walker ($139.99/£119.99 • 1082 pieces) has six feet, a massive blaster cannon, and five sinister-looking crew. We don’t fancy the chances of the three included Battle Droids. Maybe they’d be happier hanging out at that wretched hive of scum and villainy Mos Eisley Cantina ($399.99/£344.99 • 3187 pieces), where Han…

Tesla first announced the Cybertruck back in 2019 to a pretty mixed reaction. Like Marmite, the electric truck instantly split opinions. You either loved it or hated it, all down to its unique design. Unlike other top EVs, it features only straight lines, and the whole thing is made from stainless steel panels. It looks like something straight out of Cyberpunk 2077 or Blade Runner. Fast forward to today, and the Cybertruck is starting to ship out in the US. It’s not available to buy over here in the UK just yet, but it is going on tour in Europe.…
