Heat pumps have been around for decades, but the technology has been experiencing a clear moment in the sun in recent years, with global sales increasing by double digits in both 2021 and 2022, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Heat pumps were featured on MIT Technology Review’s 2024 list of 10 Breakthrough Technologies. Sales fell by nearly 17% in 2023 in the US, one of the technology’s largest markets, according to new data from the Air-Conditioning, Heating, and Refrigeration Institute. The slowdown comes after nearly a decade of constant growth. The AHRI data isn’t comprehensive, but the organization…

Even though they continue to comfortably dominate an otherwise very competitive and crowded global market in terms of sales volume (and presumably profits as well), Apple Watches have arguably become rather repetitive in recent years in terms of both designs and general capabilities.We’re not saying the 2021-released Apple Watch Series 7, for instance, can do all of the exact same stuff as 2023’s Series 9, but the differences between the two are probably a lot smaller and subtler than the company’s hardcore fans may have hoped three or four years ago.Of course, that’s good news for existing Series 7 owners…
Windows fans on a budget, it’s time for you to upgrade your tech on a budget! Your super-compact Microsoft Surface Go 3 is again seeing a generous price cut at Best Buy. That’s right, you can save $150 on this Windows tablet, which lands it just under the $400 mark. We should note this isn’t the first time in 2024 that we’ve seen this deal go live on Best Buy. First going live about a month ago, the price cut didn’t remain live for long, followed by a humbler $100 discount. Now, the $150 price cut is back in the…

Because Apple shows off the next iOS build at WWDC, the developer conference is usually a must-see annual event held in June. Besides showing off new features coming to iOS, hardware introductions often battle for attention with software. For example, last year’s conference introduced Vision Pro while previous years saw the first-gen Home Pod and the iPhone SE unveiled. This year we could see new iPads unveiled including a new 12.9-inch iPad Air and possibly a refreshed iPad Pro line with OLED displays.Unless Apple were to unveil a foldable iPhone, which is something we definitely do not see coming this…

We, as tech enthusiasts, love expensive, super, ultra, mega-powerful smartphones with gazillion cameras that take photos with out-of-this-world picture quality. And while phones like the Galaxy S24 Ultra, the iPhone 15 Pro Max, and the OnePlus 12 may make us feel like small kids enjoying their favorite toys, sometimes opting for a budget phone is the smartest financial decision despite our hearts saying that we should go for one of these powerhouses.After all, it’s better to go for a more budget-friendly smartphone if you are in need of a second phone or using your primary handset for only web browsing…
Google just launched its Gemini app for Android, and it wouldn’t be surprising if, sooner rather than later, it replaces the Google Assistant. I mean, the tech giant itself, hinted at this during the Pixel 8 launch last year when introducing the AI-powered Assistant with Bard. Now, Bard is no more, but Gemini is here. Wonder what Gemini is? If you ask it, it could tell you this: I’m Gemini, the best way to directly access Google AI. I’m trained on large amounts of publicly available data, and I can communicate and generate human-like text in response to a wide…
Per Reuters, Elon Musk has been ordered by a federal judge to testify once again as the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) continues its investigation of Musk’s $44 billion acquisition of Twitter. The court gave Musk and the SEC one week to come up with a date and location for both sides to meet. If neither side can agree to a date and time for the interview, the judge said that she would hear from both parties and come up with a date and time for them.The SEC sued Musk last October in an attempt to force the multi-billionaire to…
Who could ever forget then Microsoft CEO (now owner of the L.A. Clippers) Steve Ballmer laughing after Steve Jobs introduced the iPhone in January 2007. First, he guffawed over the price and then said that it wouldn’t attract business users since it didn’t have a keyboard. As we know now, Ballmer, along with Research In Motion’s two co-CEOs (Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis) underestimated the impact of the iPhone costing their companies and stockholders plenty of money.Speaking of the virtual QWERTY, almost everyone has become a bit proficient at typing on the iPhone’s QWERTY keyboard and some Reddit users (via…
The quarterly Pixel Feature Drop is always an update that owners of eligible Pixel phones look forward to. With the right update, your Pixel can almost feel brand new. When my daily driver was the Pixel 6 Pro a couple of years ago, I was always hoping that Google would add some type of Face unlock feature to the phone, and while there were rumors explaining various ways it could happen, sadly, it never did. As a result, I still had to deal with the Pixel 6 Pro’s finicky optical under-display fingerprint sensor.The March Pixel Feature Drop is a few…
