If you like to multitask or make full use of your screen's real-estate, splitting the screen on your new Mac is an easy thing to do. Your iPad can already be used as an additional display through Sidecar. However, sometimes that can be a hassle. So, instead, you can open up multiple browser windows or apps on your Mac screen by using Split View. This handy offering was introduced with the El Capitan version of macOS several years ago. It certainly is simpler than using Sidecar on macOS Sonoma in some cases.

Anker makes some of the best accessories for smartphones, tablets, and laptops. Not only does it offer reliable products, but it also makes them quite affordable, if you know where and when to look.

The Zotac Zone. | Image: Zotac It’s handheld season, and the Asus ROG Ally X and MSI Claw 8 AI Plus aren’t the only second-gen Windows gaming handhelds in town — GPU manufacturer Zotac has officially revealed its Zone at Computex, and it does a few things differently than the competition. Zotac already teased that the Zone would have an OLED screen, something that only the Steam Deck OLED has managed in PC handhelds before — as well as two-stage adjustable triggers like an Xbox Elite gamepad and drift resistant Hall effect joysticks. But did you know it’ll also have symmetrical PlayStation-esque joysticks, programmable dials around each one, twin Steam Deck-like trackpads, a small built-in kickstand, a Windows Hello camera instead of a fingerprint reader, and both...

Recently, Microsoft rolled out a brand-new version of Bing powered by OpenAI's GPT-4, and shortly thereafter, the company announced that you can now access Bing directly in Windows 11. That may have you thinking the company has fully integrated Bing into Windows 11, but that's not exactly the case. However, it is easier to access the new Bing experience in Windows 11, and we're here to show you how. Plus, you're not necessarily limited to using Bind through the Edge browser, since it's also built into Skype.

Don't get too excited, but Microsoft may not be 100% done with Windows 10 just yet. With most of Windows still using the older operating system, it seems that Microsoft has taken note as itreopens the Beta Insider branch for Windows 10. However, before you assume this is a second wind for Windows 10, you may want to temper your expectations slightly.

It's been a long time coming, but Samsung has finally started preorders for its latest monitors, which were initially unveiled at the top of the year during CES 2024. While most eyes were on the brand's new OLED offerings, Samsung also introduced a variety of other interesting options, like its new Viewfinity and Smart Monitors options.

In a quest for dominance in the PC light show market, companies have worked in RGB lighting and LCD screens into just about every component, including the power supply. It's becoming more difficult to build a sleeper system without flashing bulbs or diodes (without disabling them) and yet it seems the majority of PC builds are still not quite there in terms of color output. Whether you're on the side of RGB lighting being a virus to the eyes or a tasteful addition to any PC setup, it's easy to go overboard with the right hardware.

The Dexcom G7 will be able to send real-time blood sugar readings straight to the wrist. | Image: Dexcom Starting today, Dexcom G7 continuous glucose monitor (CGM) users will be able to monitor their real-time blood sugar data straight from an Apple Watch. According to Dexcom’s press release, the Direct to Apple Watch feature was one of the most requested by users. Once paired to the Apple Watch, the G7 will use its own dedicated Bluetooth connection to send both glucose readings and personalized alerts to the wrist. Meaning, you don’t have to whip out your phone if you want to view your data, nor does your phone have to be on your person. For instance, G7 users will still be able to get real-time data while on a phone-free run / walk or if your phone is charging in a different room. Previously, the G7’s Apple Watch app allowed you to have... Continue reading…

Nvidia's GeForce Experience software makes it incredibly easy to update the graphics driver whenever a new version is released. It's a fairly simple process that only takes a few minutes to complete. . That being said, the GeForce Experience software doesn't offer a way to roll the drivers back to a previous version. That's a glaring omission, considering how some drivers may have trouble working properly, causing performance and stability issues. Thankfully, there are a few ways to clear out the graphics drivers, and replace them with an older version or anything that's more stable.

Tablet computers are becoming impossibly powerful, and this year's new releases prove it. The new iPad Pro is Apple's thinnest device ever smaller in thickness than an iPod Nano and yet it includes the company's most powerful M4 chipset. The just-announced Surface Pro 11 has the Snapdragon X chipset, and that platform is going to give Apple Silicon a run for its money. So, what's holding tablets back? The popular answer is software, and it applies to both the Surface Pro 11 and the iPad Pro. Windows 11 is still lacking in optimization for touchscreens and Arm chips, and iPadOS is, well, iPadOS. But if you ask me, I'll give you a different answer: it's their detachable keyboards.

Photo by Chris Welch / The Verge Microsoft is ending support for Windows 10 in October 2025, but the company is now taking the unusual step of reopening its beta program for Windows 10 to test new features and improvements. Windows 10 already got the AI Copilot feature that was originally exclusive to Windows 11, and it may well get other features soon. “To bring new features and more improvements to Windows 10 as needed, we need a place to do active feature development with Windows Insiders,” explains Microsoft’s Windows Insider team in a blog post. “So today, we are opening the Beta Channel for Windows Insiders who are currently on Windows 10.”Microsoft hasn’t revealed what additional Windows 10 features it plans to test next, but Windows Insiders can opt into the...
