Its silicon supports Arc B390 graphics and XESS 3 scaling. Acer’s gaming handhelds don’t get as much attention as those from competing manufacturers like ASUS and Lenovo. But that could change with the Predator Atlas 8, as it will be one of the first laptops to feature Intel’s new Arc G3 chip line. While Acer isn’t introducing many major changes to its chassis or overall design, the Atlas 8 has a solid assortment of core components, including an 8-inch 1,920 x 1,200,500 nits IP display with a 120Hz variable refresh rate, a large 80Wh battery, 1TB of storage, and up…

Sony’s new Bravia TVs are finally here, and the company is offering two models in its latest premium TV lineup. There is the high-end Bravia 9 II and a cheaper Bravia 7 II. The Bravia 9 II comes in 65, 75, 85, and 115-inch variants, while the Bravia 7 II comes in 50, 55, 65, 75, 85, and 98-inch variants.

YouTube today announced the introduction of automatic AI detection, with automatic AI labeling applied to videos with “significant photorealistic use of AI.” Creators are still expected to manually disclose when realistic AI is used for videos, even with the new automatic tagging system. Creators who believe their content has been misidentified as AI-generated can update the disclosure status in YouTube Studio, but disclosures are permanent for content created with YouTube’s AI tools like Veo and Dream Screen or content with C2PA metadata indicating fully generative AI. YouTube is also improving the labeling of AI-generated content, making it clearer when a…
As cool and practical as smart glasses may seem in theory, their real-world use raises a very real concern: people are recording your private moments with them. In an age when it’s increasingly difficult to control your digital privacy, having it violated in this way can be extremely frustrating, especially as brands like Meta enhance their smart glasses with features like facial recognition.

The iPhone 17 is the better phone overall in 2026, especially for most new buyers. It delivers meaningful upgrades in display smoothness, performance, cameras, battery life, and base storage — making it feel like a more premium experience without jumping to Pro pricing. Quick Verdict Buy the iPhone 17 if you’re purchasing new, want future-proofing, or are upgrading from an older iPhone (13 or earlier). It’s the stronger long-term choice. Buy the iPhone 16 only if you find it at a significant discount (often ~$100 cheaper now) and don’t mind the 60Hz display or smaller base storage. It’s still excellent…
A company called Natural Machines has developed a 3D printer called Foodini that, like the “Star Trek” replicator, creates edible shapes layer by layer. Imagine Captain Picard of the Enterprise ordering hot Earl Grey tea, and it appears as if by magic – created by the ship’s replicator. The concept is that, in the future, humans will be able to rearrange atoms to create almost anything, from chicken soup to a Viking costume, in just a few seconds. The key to the replicator’s success is to provide a program or model that makes the requested food (or other item)…

If you’ve been waiting for the Steam Deck to be back in stock, there’s good news and bad news. After several months, Valve’s handheld is finally available for purchase, but at a much higher price.
