The Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra has undergone a slight design overhaul that makes it more comfortable to hold in the hand. The corners are more rounded and curved, so the sharp edges that dug into your palms on the S24 Ultra are no longer present. Despite this, the S25 Ultra is a massive phone that certainly requires some getting used to. Moreover, the back is matte glass, making it quite slippery. So, if you just got your hands on the phone and want to keep it safe for an extended period, the best option would be to pick up a case.

The last few weeks in tech coverage were dominated by Nvidia's RTX 50 series GPUs, especially the company's tall claims regarding its AI-powered DLSS 4 advancements. Nvidia has been at the forefront of leveraging AI to unlock new levels of performance on consumer and professional GPUs. With its DLSS tech still leading AMD's FSR and Intel's XeSS, it was only a matter of time before the competition stepped up.

Struggling to decide between the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 and its predecessor? If you're already running with the RTX 4090 and are considering the upgrade? I'd hold off unless you truly require the entire suite offered by DLSS 4 and even more frames at higher resolutions. It's more than good enough for most PC builds and the RTX 5090 takes everything to the next level. While reviews are impressed by the performance of the RTX 5090 and its AI-powered Deep Learning Super Sampling (DLSS) and frame generation technologies, it's not the smoking gun Nvidia hoped it would be. Still, it's the undisputed champion of GPUs, and here are three reasons why it's better than the outgoing RTX 4090.

Lock screen widgets were introduced to Windows 11 last year, but since its debut, one major complaint from users was that it couldn't be modified to their preferences. Microsoft promised to address the issue by introducing the option to customize widgets on the lock screen later.

Does anyone remember Altavista? It was the first web search engine ever created, but Google made it obsolete. Many other apps and services died due to others offering better features and better design or simply because they didn’t evolve quickly enough. Here, I will pay homage to a few apps and services that might deserve a second life.

On its own, OpenMediaVault is a decent OS if you want to build a NAS out of a low-spec device. After all, it has the holy trifecta of a simple UI, lightweight nature, and compatibility with ARM systems.

Steam's in-game recording feature has a lot going for it, making it a welcome addition to the app. However, with other, more established game-recording apps on the market, gamers have a lot of choices — with each app offering its own benefits.

The Start menu is always one of the most controversial parts of Windows, and that's definitely true with Windows 11 as well. The small menu without resize options and very limited customization makes for an experience that doesn't sit quite right with users.

Given how much work gets done in our browsers, it's odd that companies haven't capitalized on making their software as calming as possible. This is a shame because, if a recent survey from Opera is to be believed, we're in dire need of a browser that can soothe us during the frantic days. Well, given how Opera makes browsers, it decided to solve this problem itself with Opera Air, a new version that emphasizes calmness and relaxation while you browse.

Air includes mindfulness tools and break reminders in its floating sidebar.Norway-based Opera has announced a new browser, Opera Air, with a focus on mindfulness and mental wellbeing. It includes break reminders, breathing exercises, and a suite of relaxing soundscapes to help users both focus and de-stress. “The web is beautiful but it can be chaotic and overwhelming,” says Mohamed Salah, Opera’s senior director of product. “We decided to look at science-backed ways to help our users navigate it in a way that makes them feel and function better.”Air features a semi-transparent design and a floating sidebar for its mindfulness features. When you need to work, the Boosts feature offers music, ambient sounds, and binaural beats — where slightly different frequencies are played in each ear, which creates a perceived third frequency in the brain and is believed to help influence relaxation or focus. Soundscapes can be set to play from 15 minutes up to forever, and can be paused from the sidebar at any time.The Break reminder is an icon made up of three lines in the sidebar that gray out while you work — you can customize the duration — reminding you to take a break once the icon is fully faded. Air can help at that point too, with breathing exercises, neck stretches, “full body scans,” and guided meditations, which last up to 15 minutes.Air joins the default Opera browser and its gaming-focused Opera GX in the lineup. Like those, it includes a built-in ad blocker and free VPN, plus access to the ChatGPT-powered Aria AI assistant. Air is available to download for free now on Mac or Windows.
