Dell P2715Q front angle

Dell P2715Q review

Dell's P2715Q was its first real effort at crafting a modern 4K display and it worked wonders. We thought it looked fantastic when it was first released and it still looks good today. The drab bezels and frame didn't look great at launch and they haven't aged well, but in the competitive 4K space, this monitor still holds up.
DeLonghi BC0430 review

DeLonghi BC0430 review

DeLonghi brings you the best of both worlds with its combo coffee machine and espresso maker. Some days you want straight coffee, while other days you need a stronger kick in the you-know what. But who has both a coffee and an espresso machine? With the DeLonghi BC0430 coffee maker, you don’t have to choose between machines.
samsung galaxy note 9 review feat

Samsung Galaxy Note 9 review

The Galaxy Note 9 is here, and it’s jaw-dropping how much tech Samsung has fit inside this phone. It’s one of Samsung’s largest phones ever thanks to its 6.4-inch screen. There’s a water-cooling system to cool the internals, beta access to Fortnite, A.I. in the camera, and lots more.
Eve Technology Eve V review

Eve Technology Eve V review

Our Eve V review looks at a crowdsourced detachable tablet that checks some boxes for its backers, but a few sore spots keep it from becoming a true competitor. Perhaps the biggest question about the notebook is whether Eve Technology can deliver on time and provide support for the life of the machine.
sony xperia xz2 premium review feat

Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium review

Sony’s third flagship phone of 2018 is its first to ever feature a dual-camera lens. The Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium can capture ultra-low-light video far better than phones like the iPhone X or Galaxy Note 9, but is it worth the high cost? We look at how the overall package holds up against the spotlight video features.
2019 Mazda Miata

2019 Mazda MX-5 Miata first drive review

We hike up the California coast in Mazda’s updated MX-5 Miata, from San Luis Obispo to San Francisco, to experience first-hand the updates made to the roadster for the 2019 model year. With a revised four-cylinder engine and more power on tap, the already awesome Miata becomes an even better driver's car.
Philips Hue White and Color Ambience Starter Kit Review

Philips Hue White and Color Ambience Starter Kit

While cheaper smart lighting options abound, few competitors can match Philips Hue’s blend of style, sophistication and simplicity that makes it easy to create the perfect ambience for your home. The White and Color Ambience Kit isn’t new, but with other lighting kits flooding the market, we figured it was a good idea to take a fresh look to see if it still holds up.
Ooma Butterfleye review

Ooma Butterfleye review

Ooma Butterfleye’s high quality, auto-adaptive imaging, wire-free operation, and free cloud storage delights, but with smart features tucked behind a paywall and no night vision support available, the camera overall disappoints performance-wise.
oppo find x review feat

Oppo Find X review

Is the Oppo Find X the most beautiful smartphone we’ve ever seen? We think it’s right up there, but because it’s an import-only phone, you’ll have to put in some effort to get one. Is it worth going the extra mile? We’ve been using this design powerhouse to find out if it’s one you should buy.
2019 Audi RS 5 Sportback review

2019 Audi RS 5 Sportback first drive review

Audi expanded the RS 5 family with a high-performance sedan named Sportback. It stands out from rivals like the BMW M3 with a shapely fastback-like silhouette. While the previous RS 5 used a V8, the new model surfs the downsizing wave and gets a twin-turbocharged 2.9-liter V6. We put it through its paces in Germany.
BenQ TK800 Projector Review

BenQ TK800 Review

With gorgeous 4K picture, 3,000 lumens of brightness, and effective HDR performance, the BenQ TK800 projector is an affordable home cinema monster that you don’t have to place in a completely darkened room -- making it one of the most versatile projectors we’ve ever had the pleasure of testing.
Nokia 3.1 review

Nokia 3.1 review

2018 has been a busy year for HMD. At Mobile World Congress, the company launched not one, but six new Nokia smartphones, and some of them have slowly been making their way over to the U.S. We try out one of its latest budget offerings, the Nokia 3.1, to see how it compares to the competition.
Waylens Secure360

Waylens Secure360 WiFi review

There is no denying the “cool factor” of the 360° video concept and the insane 360 hours of idle time that the Secure360 can watch your car, but the design of this Waylens camera may leave many users disappointed.
2019 Chevrolet Silverado Full Line review

2019 Chevrolet Silverado Full Line first drive

Our 2019 Chevrolet Silverado Full Line first drive review covers all the bases, from new trim levels and exciting new engines to features that make trailering and loading easier. The new Silverado is bigger, more powerful, more comfortable, and has more of everything you want in a multi-purpose truck.
Optoma NuForce BE Free5 review

Optoma NuForce BE Free5 review

Our Optoma NuForce BE Free5 review proves that underdogs can punch above their weight, as these true wireless earbuds stuck to our ears and kept the tunes nestled inside. It’s not all gravy here, though, and you’ll want to check out the fine print before deciding to bring these $100 headphones home.
shure kse1200 electrostatic earphone system review 12 feat

Shure KSE1200 Electrostatic Earphone System review

Shure’s astronomically priced KSE1500 electrostatic earbuds get a reboot of sorts in the KSE1200, which drop the digital-to-analog converter, but keep all the lovely sound for a lot less green. We go hands-on to see if the big price cut is enough to make these incredible-sounding earbuds worth the still-spendy splurge.
Samsung DW80M9 Chef Collection dishwasher

Samsung DW80M9 Chef Collection dishwasher review

What happens when you combine innovative design elements with the cleaning power of Samsung’s latest rendition of its WaterWall cleaning technology? A dishwasher that’s as powerful and stylish as it is quiet. Read our review and find out why this unit is one of our favorites.
traeger timberline 850 review trager feat

Traeger Timberline 850 review

Renowned for its line of wood pellet grills, Traeger has taken its game to the next level with the Timberline 850 Wi-Fi-controlled grill. With its companion app, this grill promises a grilling experience that’s all but effortless. Just how smart is this smoker? Read our review.
Olympus PEN E-PL9 review

Olympus PEN E-PL9 review

With a healthy dose of style, solid performance, and beginner-friendly controls, the E-PL9 is the perfect camera for the smartphone generation. (Well, other than an actual smartphone.) However, its simplistic
marc jacobs riley touchscreen smartwatch review feat

Marc Jacobs Riley Touchscreen Smartwatch review

The Marc Jacobs Riley is Marc Jacobs’ first fully-touchscreen smartwatch. It runs Wear OS, has a large 1.9-inch display, and features an eye-catching design. But at $295, it’s pricier than other women’s smartwatches on the market. We take a closer look to see if this smartwatch is worth the high price tag.
dr dabber switch vaporizer review drdabber 3

Dr. Dabber Switch vaporizer review

Despite its high price tag, the Switch is a beast of a device in both size and performance. In our Switch vaporizer review, we put Dr. Dabber’s latest vaporizer, which is both concentrate and loose leaf compatible to the test. We weren’t disappointed.
Even H3 Wireless Review

Even H3 Wireless Hands-On Review

The Even H3 Wireless offer similar looks and the same custom “audio fingerprint” tuning as their slightly larger predecessor, but they aren’t without their own special quirks when it comes to day to day usability. Here’s how they compare to the Even H2 and other custom-tuned headphones.
2019 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack Widebody review

2019 Dodge Challenger R/T Scat Pack Widebody first drive

With a wide footprint, track-tuned suspension, and a naturally-aspirated Hemi, the R/T Scat Pack Widebody proves to be the nimblest Challenger Dodge has built to date.
2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Widebody

2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Widebody review

With competitors closing in on the Hellcat’s power, Dodge fires back with the 2018 Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat Widebody, a better handling version of its ferocious feline. Wider tires and a stiffer suspension help the Hellcat fight the Ford Mustang GT350 and Chevy Camaro ZL1 on their home turf: the racetrack.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 Review

Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 review

Before you purchase Samsung’s newest tablet, the Galaxy Tab S4, you’ll need to figure out exactly what you’re looking for. The Tab S4 delivers a decent tablet and desktop experience, but it doesn’t excel in either. There are plenty of other options on the market, which makes its high price a tough proposition. Here’s our Galaxy Tab S4 review.
Asus NovaGo review

Asus NovaGo review

Our Asus NovaGo review takes a first look at one the first Qualcomm-powered PCs. It can last 22 hours and has LTE, yet pricing starts at just $600.
Lensbaby Sol 45 review

Lensbaby Sol 45 review

The Lensbaby Sol 45 is a gateway drug into the world of creatively blurred, expressive photos that make pixel peepers’ brains hurt. It brings Lensbaby’s telltale effect, the “sweet spot” of focus, to a new low price and compact size. Read our review to see if purposefully blurred photos are worth $200.
2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt review

2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt first drive review

The 2019 Ford Mustang Bullitt is a serious performance car. Where most special editions are just vulgar paint and stickers packages, the Mustang Bullitt offers real performance enhancement that shows careful attention to detail by Ford’s engineers. It’s old school muscle with new technology.
Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact

Sony Xperia XZ2 Compact review

Want a small smartphone? There aren’t a lot of options out there these days. Well you should consider Sony’s Xperia XZ2 Compact. It may not look like the snazziest smartphone, but it’s small, packs powerful performance, and has a more than capable camera. Here’s our XZ2 Compact review.
Ricoh Pentax-DFA 50mm F1.4 SDM SW review

Pentax HD FA 50mm f/1.4 SDM AW lens review

Made of 15 glass elements and weighing in at a 2 pounds, the Pentax Star series 50mm F1.4 is no ordinary 50mm lens. The $1,200 premium prime seeks to compete with the likes of the Sigma Art series, and it easily succeeds, giving Pentax DSLR shooters a great option for a high-end normal focal length lens.
Microsoft Surface Laptop lid

Microsoft Surface Laptop review

Microsoft is known for its 2-in-1 devices like the Surface Go or Surface Pro, but it also has a traditional laptop. Now that you can usually pick it up at a significant discount, how does the Surface Laptop hold up nearly a year after its release? We run it through its paces to see if it's worth the money.
Madden NFL 19 Review

‘Madden NFL 19’ review

Madden NFL 19 feels very similar to last year’s iteration in many ways. Small improvements to the run game and player mobility adds polish to an already refined experience, while a more accessible Ultimate Team and custom draft classes offset the utter disappointment that is Longshot: Homecoming.
2019 aston martin dbs superleggera review first drive 6

2019 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera first drive review

Aston Martin’s new DBS Superleggera assumes the mantle of flagship model, succeeding the beloved Vanquish S and taking Ferrari’s 812 Superfast head-on. The rear-drive coupe boasts phenomenal power, sultry design, and long-haul comfort to shame today’s best luxury vehicles. Long live the Super GT.
2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS450 4Matic review

2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS450 4Matic first drive review

The 2019 Mercedes-Benz CLS450 4Matic “four-door coupe” is an excellent luxury car that straddles the line between coupe and sedan. But instead of offering the best of both worlds, the redesigned third-generation Mercedes CLS fails to bring anything new to the luxury-car game.
