The Steam Deck, Valve’s take on a Switch-style portable PC gaming machine, is perhaps the most anticipated piece of portable hardware since…well, since the Nintendo Switch. So it’s understandable that the technology press is champing at the bit to devour every detail about it, even well before its official release later this month. Pre-release units are finally finding their way out of Valve’s clutches, and into at least a few YouTube reviewer’ hands.

CalDigit announced the CalDigit TS4 on Tuesday, a new Thunderbolt 4 docking station that the company claims offers the most ports ever: 18 in all. Oddly, however, only one is a dedicated display port.
CalDigit’s TS4 succeeds the CalDigit Thunderbolt Station 3 Plus or TS3 Plus, one of the top-rated Thunderbolt docks in our current roundup of best Thunderbolt docks for your laptop. The new, premium TS4 also ships with a premium price: $359.95. CalDigit said that the first batch has alre
People turn to large Android tablets for streaming and even work, and Samsung’s new Galaxy Tab S8 family of tablets—with screens now up to 14.1 inches—offer massive, detailed displays for both consuming and creating content. While the large panels can feel a little awkward in tablet mode, Samsung’s laptop-like tablet looks absolutely amazing.
Samsung will offer three tablets: the new 14.1-inch Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, the 12.4-inch Tab S8+, and the 11-inch Tab S8, with p
Diehard Note users may think otherwise, but Samsung made a good call in replacing the Galaxy Note with the Galaxy S22 Ultra, which is launching today along with the S22+ and S22 smartphones. Ten years is more than enough time to concede the inclusion of a stylus doesn’t necessitate a separate phone brand—and it’s also now debatable whether a stylus makes a modern phone any more useful.
Don’t get me wrong, the Note was necessary in its day. When Samsung launched the o
Today you can turn it up for $30 less. Best Buy is selling the Anker Soundcore Life Note 3S wireless earbuds for $40, which is down from $70. The sale ends just before midnight on Wednesday night, Central time.
The Life Note 3S earbuds are packing 13.44mm drivers. Anker calls these drivers “oversized” and claims they supply bigger sound. We haven’t personally tested these earbuds, but reviews are largely positive. In addition to the drivers, Anker says the earbuds have Ba
If you missed some of the recent SSD deals, today’s your chance to get 1TB of PCIe 4.0 storage at a solid price. Best Buy is selling the 1TB WD Black SN850 for $150. That’s about $10 cheaper than you’ll find elsewhere right now.
We reviewed the SN850 in late 2020 and gave it 4.5 out of 5 stars and an Editors’ Choice Award. “The WD Black SN850 NVMe SSD is one of the very best consumer NVMe SSDs you can buy currently, with outstanding performance, especially on w
A USB-C hub monitor is an excellent upgrade for your home office. It will reduce clutter on your desk and remove the hassle of removing or attaching peripherals to your rig. Laptop owners can even eliminate the need for an external power brick.
The result is a tidy, flexible workstation. However, not all USB-C monitors are the same. Some hardly qualify as a USB hub while others can replace a high-end USB-C dock. Here’s what to know before you buy.
Why should you buy a USB-C hub mon

Microsoft’s cross-platform preview version of Windows Defender, known as Microsoft Defender Preview, is now live: an attractive way to protect your Android phone as well as your PC.
If you merely own a Windows 11 PC, there’s nothing that demands you download Microsoft’s new preview app. It’s quite different, however, if you own an Android phone in addition to your PC. We’d recommend that you try out this attractive, free utility that promises to watch over the
