Cell Phones

Your smartphone makes it easy to shoot photos and video, and then share them with anyone, but it's also important to protect them with regular backups.

Samsung has launched the Galaxy Note 8, unveiling it in New York City at an event that included plenty of hands-on time to learn about the new features.

Samsung announced a new trio of Galaxy smartphones at its Unpacked 2020 event in San Francisco, including the Galaxy S20 5G, Galaxy S20+ 5G, and Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G.

Apple showcased a new batch of products led by its latest iPhone 14 models, including new Apple Watches and new pair of AirPods Pro.

The Edge is back, this time with a ‘Galaxy S7’ coming before it, showing that Samsung is serious about pushing the notion that an edged display carries advantages.

The feature set has been given a boost with the Galaxy S7 Edge, along with a few other returning additions.

What is all the fuss about Spritz? If you were using a Spritz-enabled app, you would already have read to the end of this post and could tell us. But given that Spritz-enabled tech isn’t out there yet (it’s coming soon, though), here’s the scoop. Spritz is new speed reading technology that’s based on the theory that much of our time spent reading is wasted as our eyes move side to side. Display a word in one place, flash one word at a time and suddenly reading becomes much more efficient. Not only that, but by displaying just one word at a time, reading is suddenly possible on compact displays, like a smartphone or smartwatch. Being able to quickly (and painlessly) read e-mail, reports or even books on your Gear2 or Gear Neo suddenly makes the idea of wearable technology even more appealing.

Smartphones don't usually come cheap, and as integral personal devices that serve a variety of needs every day, protecting them is all the more important to keep working well and looking good.

ASUS takes mobile gaming a lot more seriously with the ROG Phone, a handset built to play the most demanding games, with air cooling to boot.
