Pixel-Shot/Shutterstock Imagine yourself relaxing on your couch, turning off the lights, and with a simple click, your room transforms into something akin to a movie theater. This is what you can achieve with a high-quality projector. Yes, TVs offer a better picture and more contrast, and their prices are coming down quickly (this also applies to large panels), but many people swear that a high-powered beam of light is more immersive and simply has a better ambiance. Preference aside, is a projector a good investment? How long do they last?…
Peter Dazeley/Getty Images Technologies such as smartphones, gaming consoles and computers benefit from constant updates and upgrades throughout their lifecycle. Smartphones seem to get a new version every year that replaces the previous model, and people regularly abandon their still-functional, barely-used phones to buy the latest device. The same goes for device software, although you may not know how long tech companies plan to continue supporting older models. Even if you purchased your smart TV, router, or appliances only a few years ago, the software may no longer be updated.…
PeopleImages/Shutterstock You’ve just finished a weekend decluttering session and are left with a mountain of your old tech gadgets. Not sure where to put them, but it seems like a good idea to just put your electronics back in the box they came in and store them in your garage. But treating your garage like a tech graveyard is a guaranteed way to permanently ruin your devices. Circuit boards, batteries, etc. are really only designed for temperature-controlled use, and the wild temperature swings of a garage can really wreak havoc…
Anchiy/Getty Images You may know that the idea for QR codes came from a board game called Go. This idea has spawned a massive industry with an estimated market of $15.2 billion in 2026, according to Mordor Intelligence. Its market size is expected to more than double by 2031. There are two main categories of QR codes, or “quick response” codes: static and dynamic. The main difference between the two is that data associated with a static design cannot be changed after the QR code is published, while information associated…
PJ McDonnell/Shutterstock We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Nintendo is one of the most popular video game companies in the world. The publisher and developer has created games including “The Legend of Zelda,” “Super Mario Bros” and “Pokémon.” However, before manufacturing consoles, computer hardware and video games, Nintendo began by manufacturing and selling playing cards in Kyoto, Japan. The company was founded in 1889 by Fusajiro Yamauchi and is a publicly traded, shareholder-owned entertainment and video game company, but it’s more complex than that. The first console released by Nintendo was the…

Ascannio/Shutterstock Nvidia was founded in 1993 as a modest startup with the goal of developing 3D graphics for video games and other media. Today, everyone knows Nvidia as an absolute titan of the GPU industry. Even Chinese graphics cards can’t compete with Nvidia GPUs, which power the highest-end video game graphics and accelerate the use of generative AI. The company is so powerful that Nvidia lost $1 trillion in market value in 2026 and still took it in stride. However, Nvidia almost ceased to exist in 1996 after failing to…
It offers bigger cash rewards when you purchase the company’s products. Samsung just revealed a credit card ahead of its big Unpacked event on July 22. The Samsung Galaxy Card isn’t as exciting a reveal as, say, a new foldable, but it could be useful for die-hard fans of the company.

In total, users will receive a five percent cash reward on “eligible purchases made directly with Samsung.” It can add up. The entry-level Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 costs $1,500, which would give buyers…
Liudmila Tchernetska/Getty Images Imagine if you could hang pictures, lights or objects on your walls by simply pressing them against the surface, allowing the magnets to cling. You wouldn’t need a drill, you wouldn’t need to drill into the drywall, or do any extra work to locate the studs. This could become a reality thanks to a new type of concrete. Called Ironplac, it is a ferromagnetic material that allows magnets to stay firmly on a wall or surface without screws, nails or traditional fasteners. What’s most interesting is that…
