Review: OneOdio improves on the Studio Max (or did they?)
Last year, I reviewed OneOdio's Studio Max 1 headphones and came away genuinely impressed. This year, I tested out the Studio Max 2 and ... I kind of want the old ones back. -
Review: Bedtime bone-conducting speakers are now twice as good
If you're someone who likes to fall asleep listening to sound, be it a podcast, music or a rainy soundscape, your options have been limited if you want to avoid next-day ear pain or disturbing anyone you share a bed with. This company has a solution. -
Review: 2027 Chevrolet Bolt is an affordable electric car we'll miss
Back in 2023, Chevrolet quietly sent the struggling Bolt to the proverbial junkyard in the sky. Now it’s back, but for only the 2027 model year, Chevy says. That’s sad because this is a really good EV. -
Review: Switchbot AI Art Frame and AI Hub
SwitchBot's AI Hub is a capable little Frigate box but has a literal fatal flaw. The AI Art Frame, though, is pretty dang cool. -
Autonomous Intern review: It does nearly everything you can
The Autonomous Intern is an interesting little piece of equipment. It looks like the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Really, it's a 3D printed pyramid case with a Raspberry Pi and AI agents ready and willing, if you're brave enough. -
Oukitel WP68 Air and WP500 Ultra rugged phone review
Oukitel’s WP68 Air and WP500 Ultra: giant batteries disguised as rugged phones. One has IR night vision and the other a proper thermal camera. Also, one of them nearly tempted me away from my Galaxy S22. -

We got to ride the upcoming Norton Atlas in Iceland this past week. Around 125 miles of riding in the most adventure-biased terrain in the world gave us a pretty good idea of the adventure tourer, it's strengths and weaknesses. Read our full review. -
V9 electric mono-wheel tempts death but delivers big rewards: Review
I've never been one to shy away from trying something new, even if it's dangerous, scary, intimidating, daunting, and all the other adjectives that would make most people go "Oh, heck no!" Electric unicycle? Challenge accepted. -
Review: Toyota bZ makes big leap bumper to bumper, but is it enough?
Toyota's first real swing at a mainstream battery-electric vehicle, in the awkwardly named bZ4X, felt like it had been designed by committee. Did a name change improve things? -
Review: $750 robot mower handles lawns like its pricy peers
Anthbot's M9 is a surprisingly adept mower, mastering lawns of up to a quarter of an acre for a fraction of the price of its famous competitors. And, importantly, it's incredibly easy to use, making it a great option for those new to home-robot life. -
RayNeo Air 4 Pro glasses review: My favorite go-anywhere big screen
RayNeo's Air 4 Pro glasses do one thing, and one thing only. Pop these on, plug them into your phone or laptop, and boom – an instant giant display for your eyes only. Movies and gaming on the go just got way more fun. -
Boris rides the most extreme production Harley ever built
In 2006, Harley-Davidson did a thing. When it did this thing, some wee came out of Boris. It came out of a few other people, too. Which was perfectly understandable, as you will come to understand.
