We've covered a bunch of anti-distraction phones on here, and they largely focus on stripping down your device's functionality to the basics. The Sidephone, meanwhile, takes a modular approach to customizing the hardware to fit into your life.

8849’s Tank 5 is a 25-oz rugged Android phone with a 2K DLP projector, 17,600-mAh battery, night-vision camera, camping light and impressive specs, but its bulk and price may be as striking as its feature list.

The Magcubic X7 home smart projector is a surprising package. At first glance, it looks more like a portable unit limited in function. But from sound to connectivity and picture quality, this easy-to-use projector is serious value for money.

The reborn Commodore brand has broken into the phone industry with the Callback 8020, a retro flip phone that runs 99% of Android apps through privacy-focused Sailfish OS while blocking social media and browsers for a calmer digital life.

BOOX has launched its Go 6 (Gen II) e-reader, which now features pen- and pencil-like handwriting capabilities and a notes app packed with useful templates. These productivity features take this model to the next level – all for less than $200.

I've always felt like the Kindle could do with a better way to flip ebook pages. DuRoBo might have solved exactly that problem, with a handy multifunction dial on the side of its compact E Ink device.

We previewed the RedMagic 11 Pro last year, but with any technology it feels better to have a real-world, lived experience with it. And while this phone isn't an all-rounder, its gaming capabilities and insane battery life demonstrate its strengths.

It doesn't seem too long ago that E Ink reading devices were all the rage, but new developments don't seem to create the same buzz as before. Viwoods is hoping to change that with the pocket-friendly AiPaper Reader.

Catching up with the latest viral TikToks on your smartphone can be a strain on the eyes. E Ink alternatives are few and far between, and they can be pricey for what you get. Bigme has now launched more budget-friendly options.

Back in 2020, Google kicked off a project to crowdsource signals from Android phones that an earthquake might be imminent. This global earthquake detection grid worked rather well, and delivered millions of alerts ahead of a shake.

Reading and writing on regular tablets can be tiring for your eyes, which is where E Ink can help. But colors often appear washed out and page refresh isn't exactly smooth. XPPen has launched an ePaper note device with three color levels and fast refresh.
