The nation’s largest police fleet of Tesla Cybertrucks is set to begin patrolling the streets of Las Vegas in November thanks to a donation from a U.S. tech billionaire, raising concerns about the blurring of lines between public and private interests. “Welcome to the future of policing,” Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill said during a recent press conference, surrounded by the Cybertrucks while drones hovered overhead and a police helicopter circled above him. The fleet of 10 black-and-...

TechRadar Verdict The Beyerdynamic Aventho 100 are interesting headphones, firstly because they’re a portable on-ear design but also because they have a lot to offer – fantastic battery life, unique and somewhat vibey aesthetics, portability and plenty of features including ANC and transparency modes. But somehow they fail to truly wow in the audio department. They sound good, don’t get me wrong, but they’re on a par with what you would expect to hear on a pair of headphones...

Samsung has been under strong scrutiny for the past couple of years for failing to introduce meaningful upgrades to its flagship lineup. However, a recent rumor, which we should take with a healthy dose of skepticism, suggests that all Galaxy S26 phones will get substantial upgrades to their cameras, batteries, and displays. Let’s start with the Ultra. It’s believed to feature an improved M14 OLED panel with some sort of AI privacy feature, but with the same 6.9-inch diagonal. The AI...

Whenever I review a phone, one of the first things I do after setting it up is charge it to full and then just… let it run, using it as my only phone for as long as I can, resisting every urge to charge it along the way. The Oppo Find X9 Pro lasted for three full days. 74 and a half hours, to be a little more exact. I couldn’t quite believe it either, so I ran it again. This time I turned on the power-hungry always-on display, and the phone ran for 50-odd hours before the battery hit low sin...

A few weeks ago, I headed up North to an area around Timmins, Ontario to spend a few days in the woods with my Dad and some other friends and family. Usually, we run power to our small camp and a single trailer from a gas generator, so I was interested to see how much the F3000 could replace that. While it worked great, it was beaten out by two elements. First off, I couldn’t recharge it without using the generator, and secondly, it was pouring rain, and this isn’t rated to get that wet. Tha...

Image: Matthew Smith / IDG There’s nothing more frustrating than hearing the familiar ding of a dying battery. This scenario always seems to happen when there’s zero outlets in sight. Bummer, man.  Nowadays, laptops are lasting longer than ever thanks to the energy-efficient chips from Intel and Qualcomm. Many laptops we’ve tested here at PCWorld are pushing well past the 20 hour mark, a far cry from the days when eight to 10 hours was the norm.  So, if marathon battery life is a top pri...
