    Sony's Bringing Its Best PS5 Pro Tech to the Regular PlayStation 5... Kind Of (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Sony’s been spending so much time and energy pushing the PlayStation 5 Pro as hard as it can go that it seemed that the six-year-old PS5 was getting short shrift. Now, Sony’s bringing a scaled-down version of its excellent console upscaling tech to the base PS5, and it may make your games look a little sharper on your 4K TV. Sony first introduced its PSSR 2 update (Sony just refers to it as PSSR, or PlayStation Spectral Super Resolution) on PlayStation 5 Pro consoles earlier this year. This took

    GoPro Mission 1 ILS Review: A Bad GoPro and a Worse Camera (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Critical tone · English

    Read excerpt

    The GoPro Mission 1 ILS is a chimera of a camera, and it should have been kept in the lab from which it spawned. It’s the first action camera of its kind with swappable third-party lenses, and as cool as that may sound, it’s worse than the sum of its parts. It fails at being a durable GoPro, and it’s not a great video tool for professionals, either. When I sat down to write my previous GoPro $700 Mission 1 Pro review, I had to consider who would need GoPro’s latest, most expensive, durable shoot

    Thank the Lord: The New Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K Finally Ditches Micro USB (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Amazon’s revised Fire TV Stick 4K is finally doing away with that ancient Micro USB port and the confusing “select” name. Even better, you won’t need a wire at all. The new streaming stick takes its power directly from your TV—finally. The best way to think about the new $60 Amazon Fire TV Stick 4K is as a quality of life improvement. That comes with a new Fire TV Remote (that now may keep you from trying to chuck it through your screen in disgust). The improved remote uses the same wheel-shaped

    Framework’s Revised Desktop Could Be the Modular Mac Studio of PCs (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Just in time for Apple to detail its ludicrously powerful Mac Studio and for Nvidia to launch its RTX Spark PCs, AMD is finally getting ready to give computer geeks the chance to plug away its own ultra-powered chip. Surprise, surprise: it’s from the humble modular PC maker Framework—one of the first to opt for AMD’s Gorgon Halo processor inside its wee Framework Desktop. Framework says it will soon open preorders for its new Framework Desktop, this time built in with an AMD Ryzen Max+ Pro 495.

    Polaroid’s New Anti-AI Camera Lets You Mess With Exposure Times and More (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    The most foolproof way to keep your photos from being scraped by AI is to never have them exist online at all. Still, the problem is there are few instant cameras that actually give you the option to mess with your photos beyond applying kitchy Pokémon backgrounds to your image borders. The next big, honking Polaroid camera, on the other hand, wants you to get extra creative by fooling around with exposure. The upcoming $170 Polaroid Mod is using a fixed-focus, two-lens system with either a 103m
