Where the Galaxy Watch 4 faltered, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5 can soar. It's 2022, and many of us are either looking for fresh starts or improvements to various areas of our lives, including the tech we use. Of course, Samsung is one of the largest technology companies in the world so, and there are high hopes for it. We've already lined out 5 things Samsung needs to do better in 2022 , but I'm going to go at the company in a bit more detail with improvements that I want to see in the Samsung Galaxy Watch 5. With the Galaxy Watch 4 ushering in a new era for Samsung in its wearable lineage by dropping the homegrown Tizen OS in favor of Wear OS 3, of course, there's going to be some bumps in the road. However, there are many reasons why the Galaxy Watch 4 series are some of the best Android smartwatches available. Thanks to excellent build quality, some of the most advanced health monitoring sensors, and many more reasons. However, these are perfect devices. I cou...

Maybe Samsung is catering to an audience who doesn't care about power but wants a premium phone If Samsung decides to launch the Galaxy S22 Ultra phones with less RAM (random access memory), it won't be a "deal-breaker" for consumers, despite it being a "straight downgrade" to the S21 Ultra devices, experts say. They add that it would be disappointing, but Samsung has a clear reason for targeting a specific demographic who want a premium phone without having too much power. Samsung is expected to launch the S22 series on February 9 , and while the standard and Plus models aren't expected to change too much, the S22 Ultra may see the most drastic change of the series. Rumors and leaks have pointed to Samsung lowering the base RAM of the S22 Ultra to 8GB, down from 12 GB on the Galaxy S21 Ultra. RAM would top out at 12 GB instead of 16GB. Yet rumors indicate that the phone will arrive with the same launch price as its predecessor. One reason why S...

It will take a lot of rebuilding to fix these burned bridges. Google's storied history in both the AR and VR markets is a long and devastating one. As is the case with many different kinds of mobile technology, Google was way ahead of the curve on these technologies. The company's rumored upcoming AR/VR headset, Project Iris, has all the trappings of becoming one of the best XR — that's the bridged definition of a device that can do AR and VR together — headsets ever created. The problem is, I don't trust Google to stand behind whatever it builds, and I'm willing to bet plenty of other folks don't, either. Google Glass was the first pair of AR glasses most people had ever heard of or even seen — outside of sci-fi movies, of course — but the public resentment against wearable cameras caused Google to kill it early. Similarly, the Lenovo Mirage Solo — which was built upon Google's Daydream VR platform — was the first standalone VR headset to market, ...

The Nord 2T may not debut alongside the rumored Nord 2 CE 5G. What you need to know A new rumor claims the OnePlus Nord 2T may not debut before April. It is tipped to be priced in the ₹30,000 to ₹40,000 (about $402 to $536) range in the Indian market. The phone is expected to be a follow-up to last year's Nord 2. Last week, a report from Digit shed light on the specs sheet of OnePlus' upcoming Nord 2T. While it was rumored that the phone could launch in India in February, tipster Yogesh Brar claims the Nord 2T will only be released in the second quarter of the year. According to Brar, the OnePlus Nord 2T will debut in India in April or May. Additionally, the tipster claims the phone is going to be priced in the ₹30,000 to ₹40,000 (about $402 to $536) price bracket. The Nord 2T will succeed the Nord 2 — which is still among the best budget Android phones on the market. The mid-ranger is tipped to feature MediaTek's Dimensity 1300 chipset and support 80W wire...

Google cracked the door into the kids' space, but smaller brands continue to kick it wide open and show the tech giant how it's done. Technology and science seem like magic in many ways, even to adults, but to a child, it's hard to convey all the effort from the teams of people who make devices like tablets work. As a person in this industry, with two boys, I see the wonderment in their eyes every day, and it's a constant battle of balance. That balance is finding safe kids' tech that's trusted not only to withstand the treatment of a child, but also ones that are private and secure. One of the primary issues parents face is finding kids' tech trustworthy enough to give to their children. Google should be one of those companies, but it isn't making the push it should. Yes, Google has Family Link , but it has many limitations. Some include: shared in-app purchases, workarounds for parental controls via third-party app installs, a lack of content mon...

Jabra finds the right fit for most ears to go with everything else it delivers. For several years now, Jabra has been consistent in approaching wireless earbuds. The combination of audio performance and reliability has positioned the company in the upper echelon year after year. However, when it's time to refresh things, Jabra usually aims straight for the design to deal with concerns over fit and comfort. That was clearly a major motivation behind the Elite 7 Pro, arguably the current flagship, despite the ongoing presence of the Elite 85t . The Elite 7 Pro also share the distinction with the Elite 7 Active , which are basically identical in every way save for a couple of design changes. To stand out as among Jabra's best, the Elite 7 Pro had to balance out in all the right ways.
