Anbernic keeps circling the same idea: take the Game Boy Advance SP shape and get it right. The RG35XXSP had the look but skipped analog sticks. The RG34XXSP added sticks that not every buyer in this shape was asking for. Now the newly revealed RG SP throws the sticks out again and leans all the […]

Most of Kizer’s catalog folds. The Finch refuses to, and that one decision changes how it carries, feels, and earns pocket space. Designed by Vincent Rizzo, it slips a 3.09-inch blade into a fixed-blade body that runs 6.34 inches overall and stays under three ounces, light enough to ride a neck cord without tugging your

Timex is growing its outdoor-focused Expedition Capstone line, and for the first time, a chronograph function is part of the mix, announced last June.

Spend more and you fix those problems, or so the pricing tells you. Soundcore Select 4 Go Bluetooth Shower Speaker by

I ran Geekbench 7 on my Galaxy Z Fold8 and got 2,262 single-core and 6,317 multi-core. It’s one initial run rather than a verdict on the phone, but it lands well behind a public Galaxy S26 Ultra result that identifies the same Qualcomm SM8850 platform: 2,966 single-core and 10,196 multi-core.

Phone upgrades used to be judged on the spec sheet. Lately the color you choose says just as much, and it is usually the first thing anyone notices when you pull the phone out. That is what makes the newest Pixel 11 leak worth a look, because a fresh wave of leaked renders and retailer

Buying another EDC tool usually ends the same way. It rides in a drawer for a week, then loses out to the knife you already trusted. Gear Spool’s Mighty Bar LT keeps breaking that pattern, and it isn’t because it looks tactical. Price: $24.99 Where to Buy: Amazon It’s a titanium pry bar built to

American watchmaker RGM says it’s done something no one else has managed: fire Snoopy’s likeness directly into a grand feu enamel dial. The Model 151 “Snoopy Flying Ace” turns the brand’s pilot-style 151 case into a tiny canvas for Charles M. Schulz’s WWI flying ace. It’s charming. And it’s proof that some of the most
