The Anker 10W Qi-Certified Fast Wireless Charging Pad retails for $24 and it’s worth every penny at that price. A special Amazon sale currently slashes it by $10 though, and then an extra 5% coupon cuts it all the way down to just $13.29. Definitely grab one (or two, or three) before this excellent sale ends.

After two or three years that were packed full of smartphone designs that nearly bored us to death, things are finally starting to heat up in the smartphone industry. At least, they’re starting to heat up on the Android side of the fence. Apple is expected to use almost the same iPhone design for the third consecutive year in 2019. Thankfully, Android vendors have finally decided to stop copying Apple and instead go their own way. Towards the end of last year, we saw all sorts of nifty new smartphone designs pop up in China. In 2019, things like hole-punch cameras, pop-up selfie cams, and more are making their way to the rest of the world. On top of all that, smartphone makers finally have the technology at their disposal to pack a tablet-sized screen into a pocketable device. The answer was foldable OLED screens, of course, and the first phones with foldable form factors are set to begin hitting store shelves beginning next month.

We already know that Samsung plans to release its Galaxy Fold on April 26th in the United States. On Monday, Samsung announced that smartphone shoppers in Europe will be able to preorder the phone beginning that same day, ahead of its May 3rd release in the region. But some even more interesting news about the Galaxy Fold emerged on Monday, and unfortunately it’s not quite as positive as launch details. Samsung’s first foldable smartphone packs quite a punch, but a new leak suggests it doesn’t translate its jaw-dropping specs into anywhere near as much power as it should.

It appears the persistent rumors that Nintendo would give its Switch console a major refresh this year are going to come true after all.

The Wall Street Journal is reporting today that the Japan-based gaming giant is planning two new versions of the console. One will come with “enhanced features” meant for more serious gamers, while the other will be a less-expensive option that’s meant for casual players and will be positioned as a successor to the company’s 3DS handheld system.

Apple is so serious about the original TV package it’s rolling out tomorrow, which the iPhone maker has been referring to internally as a “Netflix-killer,” that the company at one point gave serious consideration to acquiring either Netflix or the Walt Disney Co. and building a studio for its own TV projects.

That’s according to an exhaustive new report from The Wall Street Journal Sunday, which gives us a detailed look ahead at what the company will reveal at its big media event set for Monday. During that event, Apple will reportedly unveil its new Apple News subscription bundle that will cost $9.99 a month, as well as pricing for its new video service — originally thought to be free to Apple device owners.

Jupiter, the “king” of planets in our solar system, is a hostile place you definitely wouldn’t want to visit. The gas giant is a swirling mass of storms that stretch hundreds of miles deep, and the larger storms on the planet like the Great Red Spot are large enough to swallow Earth several times over.

Despite its volatile nature, and the fact that nobody really knows what lies deep within the planet, Jupiter is still one of NASA’s favorite photography targets because it’s just so beautiful. Now, NASA is showing off a new, enhanced image snapped by the Juno spacecraft, and it’s pure eye candy.

In light of all of the technologies and services offered by Google — from its popular search engine to Android — it’s somewhat easy to forget that the vast majority of the company’s revenue — which is in excess of $100 billion annually — comes from advertising. Indeed, it’s no stretch to say that Google is, at the core, an advertising company.

With mobile advertising being the multi-billion dollar industry that it is, it’s no surprise that shady advertisers are constantly looking for ways to skirt the system and generate a lot of cash in ill-deserved gains. As a result, some of the ploys these ad scammers implement are nothing short of fraudulent schemes that can sometimes hamper the user experience among Android users.

With April looking pretty thin in terms of Netflix additions, you’re going to have plenty of time to catch up on everything that hit the streaming service in March over the coming weeks. Some of those additions are dropping this week, including the third season of the Netflix original horror-comedy Santa Clarita Diet.

As for licensed content, the fifth season of How to Get Away with Murder should turn some heads, but my personal recommendation this week is Tucker and Dale vs. Evil. Also in the horror-comedy genre, this movie manages to turn the entire horror genre on its head while still telling a compelling story with fascinating characters. I never would have watched it based on the trailer alone, but it’s definitely worth an hour and a half of your time.

There’s no question whatsoever that Avengers: Endgame is the most hotly anticipated movie of the year. In fact, thanks to the incredible cliffhanger that closed Avengers: Infinity War, the new Avengers 4 film may very well be the most eagerly anticipated movie of this decade. Everyone wants to know what our favorite heroes will do now that half of life in the known universe has been snapped away by Thanos, including many of the heroes we’ve been following for years in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It was the most heartbreaking ending we’ve ever seen in a superhero movie, or at least it would have been if we didn’t have a very good idea that the remaining heroes will find a way to undo all those deaths in Endgame. After all, Dr. Strange looked through 14,000,605 futures to find the one sequence of events where the Avengers would emerge victorious. As he was dying, Strange clearly hinted to Tony that he ensured the of Infinity War happened a certain way to ensure their victory.

So Endgame will definitely be the hottest ticket in town next month, which means that there’s a good chance one or all showings in your area during opening weekend are going to sell out. If you want to guarantee yourself a seat on Thursday night, Friday, or at any points during opening weekend, you’ll obviously need to buy tickets during the presale period. But when will tickets for Avengers: Endgame finally go on sale? Thanks to a number of new leaks scattered around the web, we think we now know the exact date and time.

Fourteen years ago this month, a new workplace comedy debuted on NBC that was so quirky and offbeat it gave away no hint at the time about how mega-popular The Office would go on to become. So much so, that the series’ diehard fans have ensured the beloved mockumentary is arguably more popular today as a Netflix favorite than when it was actually on the air, from 2005-2010.

No surprise, then, that so many members of the Office cast, crew and writing staff went on to new creative ventures, from helming and starring in feature films to serving as showrunners for TV series of their own. One of those in the latter category is Mike Schur, who went from writing for The Office — as well as portraying Dwight Schrute’s bearded, taciturn cousin Mose — to so many other successful TV projects that it’s turned him into one of the most successful showrunners of the past decade.
