October was full of frights, but at least the tech on offer proved to be an occasional delight. We started off the month with a new slate of handheld gaming PCs from Lenovo and the dual might of Microsoft and Asus. Then, Apple came along and dumped a whole gaggle of gadgets on our doorstep, […]
Bose SoundLink Micro (2nd Gen) Review: A Tiny Speaker You Could Actually Love
I don’t know about you, but for me, there’s something infinitely appealing about compact gadgets. I loved the iPhone Mini (RIP) and love (present-tense) the very much still-existent Samsung Galaxy Z Flip (not RIP). And don’t even get me started on tiny gaming handhelds like Panic’s Playdate. Seriously, take one look at that thing and […]
Bose QuietComfort Ultra Headphones (2nd Gen) Review: The New King of ANC?
Bose has done it again. Sorry, I said BOSE HAS DONE IT AGAIN. Can you hear me?! Source link
These Headphones With Bose Sound and 100 Hours of Battery Won’t Destroy Your Wallet
I’m a fan of Bose audio. In recent memory, I’ve tried Bose’s SoundLink Plus, a portable Bluetooth speaker with big sound and a great (grassy) look; the second-gen QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds with their ridiculously good ANC; and its Ultra Open Earbuds, probably the best pair of open earbuds I’ve used to date. That being said, […]
The Best Gadgets of August 2025
Wow, are we really here again? Already? It’s almost September, folks, and Gizmodo’s consumer tech team is firmly fixed on upcoming events like IFA 2025 in Berlin and Apple’s impending annual iPhone extravaganza (Meta Connect 2025 is mid-month, too!). That being said, there are still a lot of cool gadgets we reviewed in August that […]
Bose QuietComfort Ultra 2 Review: The Only Earbuds You Want on an Airplane
How much do you value quiet? I’m not trying to get profound here—this is a gadget review, not a self-help seminar—but it’s a question worth asking. Personally, I find quiet to be pretty important. Nothing says loving myself like putting on a pair of earbuds and telling the entirety of New York City to kindly, […]
The Best Open Earbuds You Can Buy Aren’t Actually Earbuds at All
Back in my day, the name of the game when it came to wireless audio was noise cancellation. That’s to say, how much noise can your wireless earbuds possibly block? And sure, active noise-cancellation (ANC) wireless earbuds are probably never going to fall out of vogue entirely, but in recent years, audio companies have recognized […]
Bose SoundLink Plus Review: Big Bass, Big Beach Vibes, and a Big Price That’s Worth It
There are lots of different types of speakers out there for lots of different kinds of people. You’ve got rugged speakers for the outdoorsmen and doomsday preppers; you’ve got little speakers for anyone that needs to travel light; you’ve got party speakers for anyone that needs to annoy the ever-loving-shit out of their neighbors. And, […]
Bose’s New Bluetooth Speaker Looks Like a Solid Way to Annoy Everybody at the Beach
The only thing I love more than foisting my music on other people at the park is doing it with a speaker that delivers solid or above-average sound quality. While I haven’t had a chance to use Bose’s new portable Bluetooth speaker, it seems like it could be a great option for doing just that. […]
