LG Gram Pro 17 review: a Gram with more gusto

The Action Button is the most significant new iPhone feature in years
A little button that you can program to do virtually anything you want unlocks a lot of possibilities for the computer that’s with you the most often.

The new Apple Watch models released this year don’t look any different from their predecessors, but they do come with some nice upgrades under the hood. Namely, a new chip and a couple of new abilities that come along with it. Do you need to upgrade? Nah, especially if you have a watch from last year. Be sure to check out Victoria Song’s video below and her full review for more.

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds review: still great but a questionable ‘upgrade’
Spatial audio and voice call improvements are the main new features, but these earbuds are largely identical to last year’s QuietComfort Earbuds II otherwise.

The new plug-in version of Brilliant’s wired smart switch is simpler to install and just as easy to use. But still-limited integrations keep it from being truly brilliant.

OK, OK. I don’t want to brag. But the truth is that I was getting worried about how all my drone footage in my DJI Air 3 review was starting to become very one-dimensional.
Until one day, there was an intense passing storm, which resulted in some of the best clips I’ve ever gotten on a drone. Putting myself at risk for content every single day! Sort of.
I was a little worried everyone would jump down my throat for this hot take, but I’ve been having a blast talking to other drone enthusiasts in the YouTube comments. Yes, YouTube comment section can sometimes be very productive.
Come hang! And tell me which drone you’re flying these days? Do you have a reason to upgrade?
