Xbox emulation is now available on Android, albeit in a limited and somewhat controversial form. The app is called X1 Box and it is available in Google's Play Store for $7.99, as of this writing. Eagle-eyed users, however, have noticed that X1 Box is a fork of the free, open-source Xemu emulator, and the developer has already posted the source

Xbox has been in tumultuous times as of late. Within a week of the retirement of Phil Spencer, and passing of the torch to former Windows AI head Asha Sharma, Microsoft announced its new Project Helix console. As we've covered previously, Project Helix is a high-end console-PC hybrid capable of running both Xbox-exclusive titles and PC games,

If I'm offering to sell you a laptop, and I tell you that the laptop has 1.1 TB of storage, you would likely expect that it has a 1TB SSD and perhaps another, smaller SSD. Well, don't get tricked by sketchy listings like this one that Redditor /u/bmr99 spotted on Amazon, which say "1.1TB storage," but are actually referring to a 1TB OneDrive

Apple delivered several new products during its days-long event last week, including the entry-level cost MacBook Neo and updated MacBook and iPad Airs. Apple fans may have more to look forward to this year though, because the much discussed foldable iPhone appears imminent. Long time Apple leaker Sonny Dickson took to X to share a purported

Back in 2022, NASA’s Double Asteroid Redirection Test (DART) successfully smashed a spacecraft into the asteroid moonlet Dimorphos, a kinetic impact experiment to see if we could knock a lethal space rock off course. New analysis this week reveals that the impact did make a difference and that DART altered the entire binary asteroid’s path

A modder has successfully shown off Grand Theft Auto V: Enhanced Edition running smoothly on the PlayStation 5 under Ubuntu Linux, with the CPU and GPU clocked up to 3.2GHz and 2GHz, respectively. Compared to the default CPU and GPU boost clocks, which peak at 3.5 GHz and 2.23 GHz, the frequencies used were actually lower than what's possible,

A Reva G-Wiz, the infamously cramped and polarizing (meaning: crappiest) micro-electric car from the early 2000s, has been granted an improbable second life through a power source found in 7-Elevens everywhere: vape batteries—500 of them. UK-based engineer and YouTuber Chris Doel was able to eke out a top speed of almost 40 mph with an 18-mile

Several years ago, I replaced my home theater's bulky surround sound setup for a sleek soundbar, opting for what at the time was Samsung's flagship 11.1.4-channel model, and never looked back. You can too if you're looking to de-clutter, or simply want to level up from your TV's built-in speakers, and it won't cost you nearly as much as it

Not wanting to be outdone, Oppo is preparing to stay at the top of the foldable smartphone heap with the Find N6, dropping globally on March 17. This time, Oppo promises to bring an end to the visible screen crease, thanks to a new titanium alloy hinge with a specialized memory glass layer combo. We've heard it all before, but based on what

Five months after acquiring Arduino, the open-source hardware and software company best known for its UNO and Nano microcontroller board for hobbyists, Qualcomm is looking to make another big splash with its new Arduino Ventuno Q, a single-board, dual-brain computer built specifically for AI, robotics, and actuation. The Ventuno Q is built

Qualcomm and NEURA Robotics have announced a collaboration to integrate edge computing with embodied AI, aiming to move cognitive humanoid robots from research labs into large-scale industrial and domestic environments.

Coming off a whirlwind week jam-packed with new Apple product announcements, including the MacBook Neo, the most affordable MacBook to date, the rumor mill is bristling with what comes next. If the chatter ultimately proves accurate, we will see Apple launch a string of ultra-premium hardware devices. One of those products is said to be a

In just a few days, Apple's new iPhone 17e will release to retail, after which we can start to get a better idea of how it fares, both in the form of professional reviews and actual user impressions. In the meantime, benchmarks scores on Geekbench for the iPhone 17e powered by Apple's A19 silicon are starting to pile up, giving us a hint of

The days of having to take out a second mortgage to pay for a big screen OLED TV are long gone, at least for the most part. Yes, some of the more premium models still command a king's ransom, but OLED in general has come down in price quite a bit over the past several years. Driving this point home is an entry-level LG OLED TV that is more

In case you missed the memo, Intel's been kicking butt in the mobile arena lately. Its Core Ultra 200V "Lunar Lake" processors offered a great blend of CPU compute, GPU horsepower, and excellent power efficiency, and the latest Core Ultra 300 "Panther Lake" chips continue that trend, ramping up performance in every area while maintaining fantastic

Some signs are pointing toward an imminent release date and pricing reveal for the Steam Machine, Steam Frame, and Steam Controller. Not only did Valve recently release a blog post reaffirming its commitment to "shipping all three products this year", but data miners on SteamDB noticed a "Coming soon" listing change for all of the new Steam

Summer is fast approaching and if you're planning to catch a flight to go on vacation, heads up that United Airlines now has the explicit right to remove passengers who refuse to wear headphones or earbuds and instead choose to blast audio through their laptop, smartphone, or tablet. The new rule is part of a recent revision to the airline's

Upon its release, Ayaneo's Pocket Air Mini received praise for its build quality, strong Nintendo GameCube emulation performance, and entry-level pricing under $100. While the price of the device has increased over time, it's still a solid budget handheld. Now, Ayaneo is celebrating with a refresh by releasing a new model in collaboration

Thanks to official posts by OnePlus boss Li Jie, we already know that the OnePlus 15T will feature ultra thin bezels and gaming-optimized performance. Not ending there, Li also confirmed that the device will pack a battery that will put the S26 Ultra and iPhone 17 Pro Max to shame in a 6.32-inch form factor. Over at Weibo, OnePlus president

Apple is coming off one of its busiest weeks in a long time, in terms of product announcements. Instead of announcing a bunch of products on a single day, Apple took a staggered approach to unveiling a barrage of hardware, some of which includes its cheapest MacBook ever, the MacBook Neo, along with an M5 MacBook Air and a refreshed MacBook

NASA has announced that the asteroid known as 2024 YR4, a space rock roughly the size of a 20-story building, no longer poses a threat of crashing into the Moon during its close approach in 2032. While initial projections suggested a slim but still possible lunar impact, new data has refined the object’s trajectory that will carry it past

If you read the headline and, like me, thought 'What the heck is a CQDIMM?', I'm here to tell you it's actually not that complicated. ASRock is using the term CQDIMM to refer to standard CUDIMMs that have four memory ranks, making them quad-rank. This allows for memory modules that offer both high transfer rates and high capacity; ASRock specifically

In a week of unprecedented friction between Claude AI's Anthropic and the Pentagon, the federal government has now flagged the AI company as a national security threat, more specifically with a "supply-chain risk" label. This labeling is similar treatment for foreign adversaries like Huawei, and all because the company had become at odds with

A serious security issue in Arc Raiders’ Discord integration has been uncovered by computer engineer Timothy D Meadows II, who posted a full write-up of the findings on his personal blog.
