If you’re still mad about the death of the headphone jack, though, you can still be mad. It’s cool. You’ll find valuable but not dramatic improvements here.

Better battery-life and wireless charging, but the same so-so sound. For $200, it offers almost all the features you'd find on its more expensive brother.

It loses the rotating bezel and shorter battery life, but otherwise it offers everything you’d expect from Samsung’s higher-end smartwatch, for a lot less money. Context is king.

The Shed's arresting design is really an industrial-sized allegory for what it thinks the cultural temple of the future should be: infinitely flexible.

The EV designer is rolling out an update to Navigate on Autopilot that gives you the option of disabling the turn-stalk requirement. Toggle that and the car will change lanes on its own, delivering notifications through a visual prompt as well as an optional chime.

]( It’s not just new AirPods. After some leaks and code-based tips, there was little left to announce, but Beats has officially revealed the Powerbeats Pro: the previously rumored pair of $250 true-wireless earbuds. While they’re sans wires, they have the same over-the-ear hook design as the Powerbeats 3 Apple and Beats debuted in 2016. Since these are designed for workouts and other activities, that hook helps keep the buds in place while you're moving around. Beats says this true-wireless model is 23 percent smaller and 17 percent lighter than the Powerbeats 3, which hopefully makes them more comfortable. But wait, there's more... [1.
