I have absolutely no need to buy a new TV right now. In fact, I just replaced the last old TV in my house last year, so there are now no TVs that are less than a few years old. But honestly, I’m reeeeeeeeally tempted to buy a new one anyway because of the killer deal I just came across on Amazon. The TCL 65S517 65-Inch 4K Ultra HD Roku Smart LED TV is worth every penny of its $1,100 full retail price, but it typically sells for around $900. Today, if you hurry, you can get one with free Prime shipping for only $599.99. This deal is absolutely nuts, and we doubt it’ll last very long.

A few contradicting reports earlier this year said that Nintendo is working on a bunch of new Switch consoles, including a more affordable model as well as an upgraded next-gen console. We then heard that Nintendo supposedly wasn’t planning any Switch refreshes or price cuts for 2019, but that doesn’t mean we’re done dealing with Switch rumors. A brand new story claims that Nintendo is indeed working on a cheaper, smaller Switch console that should be launched this fall, and it comes from a pretty reliable source.

The 2019 iPhone models are slowly beginning to take shape, as yet another research note from reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo states that Apple’s next flagship phones will feature 12-megapixel front-facing TrueDepth cameras.

In addition to the upgraded front-facing camera, Kuo reiterates that both the 6.5-inch OLED iPhone (successor to the iPhone XS Max) and the 5.8-inch OLED iPhone (successor to the XS) will feature triple-lens rear cameras, while the 6.1-inch LCD model (successor to the XR) will have a dual-lens rear camera.

It’s a good thing Samsung decided to unveil its foldable Galaxy Fold smartphone at a standalone press conference ahead of Mobile World Congress back in February. Phones with folding screens are all pretty new and exciting right now, but one of Samsung’s biggest rivals unveiled its take on the folding form factor and blew the Galaxy Fold out of the water in the process. Had both new handsets been announced at MWC 2019, the comparisons would have undoubtedly been even worse for Samsung.

Samsung made a number of questionable design choices with its first folding smartphone. From a taste perspective, the biggest question is whether the tiny outer screen with huge bezels, the gap when the device is folded closed, or the massive corner notch on the large inner display is the most offensive aspect of the phone’s design. But the biggest issue with the new Galaxy Fold might not be the design, but rather the execution.
