The Asus ROG Zephyrus Duo is back, but for CES 2026 both its screens are going full edge-to-edge – like a Zenbook Duo built for gaming. The original Zephyrus Duo was a quirky keyboard-in-the-front-club member, with a 15.6-inch main display and a 14.1-inch-wide, skinny touchscreen crammed between the hinge and side-by-side keyboard and trackpad. The […]
The latest MSI Crosshair gaming laptop announced at CES today doesn’t make any major changes, but does manage to fit improved specs into less space. According to MSI, the Crosshair 16 Max HX is 14.3 percent thinner than its predecessor, a difference of 2mm. The slightly more svelte chassis comes with slightly updated specs, including […]
The next generation of HyperX’s Origins wired keyboards debuted at CES 2026, and the company has focused on adding more performance and customization. For example, its new Origins 2 and Origins 2 Pro are both 65-percent options with high-profile keys that boast a PCB with hot-swappable switches that doesn’t require soldering to tweak. The Origins […]
HP’s branding is missing on its new gaming laptops (and gaming monitors) announced at CES 2026 – HP-owned HyperX has gotten a big promotion in its place. This swap is the biggest aesthetic change in the Omen lineup (the logo is on the lid and on the screen’s bottom bezel). In other words, not much […]
From laptops to monitors, HyperX is the brand you’ll see on much of HP’s new gaming-focused products launched at CES 2026. And despite the branding switch, this year’s slate of monitors might be the company’s most competitive batch yet. The cheapest of the three QD-OLEDs announced is the HyperX Omen OLED 27q, a 27-inch 1440p […]
8BitDo’s second officially licensed wireless Xbox controller is also its most expensive gamepad to date. The 8BitDo Ultimate 3E Controller for Xbox follows last August’s Ultimate 3-mode Controller for Xbox – Rare 40th Anniversary Edition with some excellent upgrades, less branding, and a big price hike. It’s got tunneling magnetoresistance (TMR) joysticks, Hall effect triggers […]
Belkin has announced a new version of one of its first accessories for the Switch 2 at CES 2026. The Charging Case Pro for Nintendo Switch 2 carries forward the same 10,000mAh internal battery as the original, but it’s been redesigned so you don’t need to remove the battery to charge it, and you no […]
Flappy Bird was almost preposterously simple. If you ever played the game, even once, you surely remember how it worked, but here’s a summary just in case. You were a bird. Your job was to fly, left to right, for as long as possible without crashing into the green Mario-ish pipes coming from both the […]
When the Nintendo Switch 2 launched in June, AR glasses brand Viture beat Xreal to the punch with its own multi-port battery pack that doubles as a portable video dock for the new console. After several months, Xreal answered with the Neo, a 10,000mAh (38.7Wh) battery pack with DisplayPort Alt video-out. It sure is one […]
Valve has announced the winners of the 2025 Steam Awards and, unsurprisingly, Hollow Knight: Silksong, took home the Game of the Year honors. It was also given the “Best Game You Suck At” award, which, I’m not sure if that’s a good thing or not. Given the relentless fawning over Silksong since its release in […]
