You didn’t read this list by accident. Probably.

Projectors and Art Screens

The Xgimi Titan Noir Max hits shelves in 2026. It’s a home projector, heavy on the noir, lighter on the price. If you’re done staring at flat panels, this is the way out.

Then there’s the art TV. Yes, they’re expensive. Yes, you can put real paintings on them when the movies end. The screen disappears into the wall, mostly. It looks good hanging there like a normal frame. Why settle for a black void when you could have Monet?

Prime Day Panic Buying

Everyone and their dog is buying things on Amazon right now. You probably should too. If not, skip it.

There’s a Walmart angle if you’re avoiding Bezos’s empire. Gadget prices drop there too. Don’t ignore them.

Amazon dropped the curtain on early deals. We looked deep. Really deep. You don’t have to trawl the depths. We did the dirty work.

40 gadgets. Tested by WIRED. Not the junk you’d throw away by Christmas. Things you actually want. Don’t pay full price. It’s insulting.

“Last Chance” deals are still there. Prime Day technically ended? Fine. The deals didn’t vanish. You have the weekend. Move fast.

Computers and Birds

Laptops. I’ve tested hundreds. Probably thousands. I know what you need. I’m tired of people buying the wrong ones. Read the advice. Stop guessing.

Your backyard? Boring. Or is it? Install a smart bird feeder. Little cameras snap pics of the visitors you ignored for years. Prime Day makes these affordable. Thank me later when you’re staring at a high-res woodpecker at 8 AM.

The Apple Dilemma

MacBooks are costing more than ever. Apple knows this.

Neo? Air? Pro?

Which one is right? I tested them all. Here’s the honest part. The price isn’t right, but the machines are. Pick wisely. The wallet feels heavier. The machine feels fine.
