Edifier’s S3000pro speakers are by far our favorite wireless home speakers. They offer sound that rivals models that cost as much as $1,500 or even more, but they retail for $800. Even still, $800 is more than many people want to spend — even audiophiles who want the best possible sound. Lucky for you, there’s another version of these fantastic speakers that cost literally half as much. The Edifier S2000pro Powered Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers sound almost as good, but they strip off a bunch of bells and whistles to help keep the price down. Definitely check them out!

While iOS updates are supposed to improve performance and eliminate pesky bugs, the recent release of iOS 13.2 proved to be nothing short of a headache for many users. The biggest complaint centered on incredibly shoddy memory management that saw iOS curiously and aggressively kill apps and tasks running in the background. In fact, performance was so bad that many users said that iOS 13.2 effectively eliminated the iPhone’s ability to truly multitask. Remember how Apple’s new iPhone 11 models kept losing to Android phones in real-world speed tests? Well thankfully, that’s about to change.

I was a big fan of Apple’s AirPods when they first launched, but I have to say grew tired of them fairly quickly. The concept is terrific, of course, and they were certainly among the best true wireless earbuds on the market when they first hit store shelves. But the smooth plastic tips don’t isolate sound so all the bass leaks out of your ears. That’s fine if you’re a runner or if you commute in a city and need to hear what’s going on around you. Personally, I want silicone tips so I can enjoy the best possible sound quality. I switched to the Master & Dynamic MW07 true wireless earbuds and never looked back, and I continued to use them until recently when I got the new and improved MW07 Plus model. They’re so good that I didn’t even care when Apple released its new AirPods Pro model, which features silicone tips and new noise cancelling technology.

The new AirPods Pro earphones look great, but I personally didn’t even bother to try them at first. Why not? Well, I poked around a few reviews out there and I really didn’t find anything worthwhile. The reviews I skimmed seemed like they were written by tech bloggers who had never even tried another pair of noise cancelling earphones. They gushed over capabilities that are beyond basic, and they didn’t do anything to convince me that Apple had made any great strides where sound quality is concerned. Since the reviews I found were so poorly written, I just closed them and didn’t even bother investigating any further. If you’re in the same boat, however, I finally ended up stumbling upon a review that’s actually worthwhile, but it wasn’t published by any tech blog or news site. Instead, it’s just a random guy on Reddit who seems to know a lot more about reviewing headphones than any of the gadget bloggers I found.

All the nifty wireless home sound systems out there right now are great for people who prioritize convenience, but true audiophiles know that they’ll never be truly satisfied with a system like that. If you’re looking for something to propel your home setup into the future without making any compromises on sound quality or tech, you definitely need to check out the Denon PMA-150H Integrated Network Amplifier.

This fantastic network amp provides 70W of power per channel and it’s fully digital, with support for HEOS, Wi-Fi streaming, and Bluetooth.

Honestly, we were more blown away with the S15s because we’ve never heard anything get sound like this out of a pair of $15 speakers.

If you’re an audiophile looking for a great network amp that won’t cost thousands of dollars, your search might’ve just come to an end.

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare (2007) was one of the most popular shooters of all time, and it made Call of Duty a household name. When you reboot a game like that, you’re playing with fire, and it’s clear from the start that developer Infinity Ward knew how important this entry was not just for longtime fans, but for the future of the franchise.

One of the things that made Call of Duty 4 so great was the campaign. At the time, it was rare for a game to dabble in the complexities of present-day world politics and the bloodshed that can result. The game didn’t shy away from depicting the grim realities of terrorism and the human toll of armed conflicts. Modern Warfare — the 2019 version — follows the same thread, but things are a lot different now than they were in 2007.

Disney’s streaming service should offer the same kind of deal as some of its biggest rivals. A monthly fee is enough to guarantee unlimited streaming on a variety of devices, and in this case, the monthly fee is a lot lower than most rivals. But even though Disney+ is supposed to deliver an ad-free experience like Netflix, you’ll still see one particular type of commercial, and there’s a good reason for it.

We knew before the Pixel 4 launched that the phone would ship with the same Snapdragon 855 chip that powers many of this year’s Android flagships rather than the newer 855+ that Qualcomm launched a few months ago. That meant the Snapdragon 855 would be no match for the iPhone 11’s A13 chip in benchmark tests — the chip can’t compete with the A12 that powers last year’s iPhones, either. So it’s no surprise that in real-life speed tests, the iPhone 11 just mops the floor with Google’s best phone ever. It’s deja-vu all over again.
