For all the time that I’ve been covering technology, there’s been a hierarchy when it comes to TV brands. The big three – Sony, Samsung, and LG – have been on top for a while. Pioneer and Panasonic were up there with plasma TVs, and Panasonic is getting back in the game in the States. […]
There are some things you can reliably expect to see at the Consumer Electronics Show every year. Companies will announce big splashy TVs, there’s going to be a bunch of new gadgets for charging your other gadgets, and the odds are good that a robot or two is going to hilariously malfunction. But CES always […]
The CES show floor officially opened its doors yesterday and along with it came a deluge of more announcements and reveals. If you’re struggling to stay on top of all the new tech, gadgets, concepts, and AI-powered devices as day two gets underway, we’ve rounded up some of the best hardware and upgrades that have […]
Amazon Fire TV has been a bit long in the tooth for a while now. Its design isn’t as intuitive to navigate as Google TV, Roku, or Apple TV, and its responsiveness is frustrating. I’ve found it to be the weak link in Amazon’s portfolio for a while now, and the only major drawback to […]
Joining Samsung’s The Frame, Hisense CanvasTV, TCL Nxtvision, and newly announced LG Gallery TV, is Amazon’s very first art TV. The Amazon Ember Artline is a 4K edge-lit LED TV with a matte screen to reduce ambient light glare and is only 1.5 inches thick. At purchase, customers will be able to include their choice […]

This can be anything from modifying your family photos for a laugh […]
CES is poised to be the story of RGB LED, with almost every major TV manufacturer set to show off their latest models using the technology. But TCL is hoping to change that narrative, or even overtake it, with its own story – that of the X11L SQD-Mini LED TV. The X11L uses blue LEDs […]
The amazingly thin wallpaper design from LG is back. The first Wallpaper TV was released back in 2017, and it’s been six years since we saw the last one. But LG has revived the product line with the LG OLED evo W6, and I’ve seen it here at CES. The TV body is only 9mm […]
The Freestyle Plus all-in-one portable projector features 430 ISO Lumens, or “nearly twice the brightness of the previous generation,” according to Samsung. Great! But also a little strange since both the original and second generation Freestyle projectors listed “550 lumens” on their respective spec sheets. See, projector makers are notorious for playing fast and loose […]
In just the past couple years, the art TV category that’s been dominated by Samsung’s The Frame has seen growth, with additions from both TCL and Hisense. Now LG has announced its own entry, the LG Gallery TV. The TV will leverage the Gallery+ service that LG released earlier this year, which includes thousands of […]
