I spent hours digging through obscure Samsung Galaxy features, and these 4 deserve more attention
Samsung Galaxy devices are some of the best Android phones you can buy, and that's because they're packed with features. Most Galaxy phones are full of exclusive features fans love, but there are dozens more that don't get talked about enough and deserve far more attention.
AirPods aren't the best Bluetooth earbuds anymore
Apple’s AirPods are so ubiquitous, they’ve become the Kleenex of Bluetooth earbuds. But whether you own an iPhone or an Android, AirPods are hardly the only compelling option. As long as you stay clear of the cheapest budget options you see in checkout lines, Bluetooth earbuds, in general, are all pretty awesome.

This open-source Android keyboard finally fixed what Gboard gets wrong
Android's default keyboard, Gboard, ships with clever predictions and slick design, but it also ships with a permanent connection to Google's servers. HeliBoard, a free and open-source alternative, actually makes a pretty good case for a replacement.
The Pokémon TCG Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box is under market price at Amazon — save over $5
TL;DR: The Pokémon TCG Scarlet & Violet Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box is on sale for $114.47 at Amazon, down from its $121.99 list price.
Opens in a new window Credit: The Pokémon Company Pokémon TCG Scarlet & Violet Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box $114.47 at Amazon$121.99 Save $7.52 Get Deal
Any Pokémon TCG collectors still chasing Destined Rivals have another chance to pick up its increasingly rare Elite Trainer Box for less than the going market rate.
As of Sept. 15, the Pokémon TCG Scarlet & Violet Destined Rivals Elite Trainer Box costs $114.47 at Amazon (shipping included), compared with the retailer’s $121.99 typical price. That takes $7.52 off, with the box shipped and sold directly by Amazon rather than a marketplace seller.
Even cheaper than the $115.98 deal we covered a week ago, this not only undercuts TCGplayer’s estimated market price of $115.38 by 91 cents but also beats listings on the trading card site itself, where prices go as low as $115.53.

I thought my Google TV stick/dongle was dead, then I disabled one setting
I still value my Google Chromecast with Google TV dongle because I don’t mind when it slows down a little, since I only use it on an older TV to stream movies and shows. So when I ran into a visual problem and thought my dongle was dead, I found it just needed a quick settings adjustment to come back to life. Some have claimed their dongle received an update that broke their Google TV stick, but mine still worked until one day it showed that lovely black screen of death on an old TV that replaced my dead one. Sometimes it’s just one setting that causes the black screen; other times, it's more complex.
PopSockets expands popular Low-Pro line with new 3-in-1 iPhone cases
PopSockets just launched the Low-Pro Case, a new line of MagSafe iPhone cases and the first expansion of its Low-Pro line. The three-in-one MagSafe case supports wireless charging and also includes a collapsible Low-Pro Grip and a built-in phone stand.
Earlier this year (June 16, to be exact), PopSockets launched its Low-Pro Grip — a series of ultra-thin magnetic grips designed to lie flush against the back of your phone — exclusively in Apple stores. The Low-Pro Grip is just 2.6 mm when collapsed, and PopSockets says the launch received tons of positive feedback (most likely from people like me who can't stand when things are even a little bit off). PopSockets founder David Barnet told Mashable the Low-Pro is the brand's most popular new launch since the company's earliest days.
SEE ALSO: We found the best iPhone 18 Pro cases and grips to protect your new phoneSo, naturally, the company is taking the concept further by embedding that same disappearing grip directly into a protective phone case. According to PopSockets, the new Low-Pro Case offers:
Integrated Low-Pro Grip
Adjustable stand for both portrait and landscape viewing
10-foot drop and 360-degree phone protection
Optimized for MagSafe cases
Wireless charging (meaning the phone charges wirelessly through the case and grip)
Here's what the new case looks like in practice:

Credit: Mashable | Timothy Beck WerthAnd here's how it works: instead of snapping an accessory onto your existing phone case, this is a grip and case in one. It uses a flexible unibody design with a built-in grip that expands when you need to hold your phone, then collapses flat when you slide it into your pocket. It also has a metal ring that functions as a phone stand.
Launching Sept. 15 for $59.99, the new PopSockets Low-Pro Case is available for the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max as well as the newly announced iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max (the Low-Pro Grip costs $39.99 on its own). For now, it comes in black and burgundy and is available for sale on Amazon, Best Buy, and the PopSockets website.
Our tech editor demoed the new case in person with Barnett and can confirm that the grip is "extraordinarily thin." While it might feel a bit flimsy due to the ultra-thin, flexible parts, Barnett says they tested the grip and found it could support over 40 pounds. The company discovered this fact in a very scientific "Fanta test," as you can see in this TikTok:
Sarah Michelle Gellar lands jab at cancelled Buffy reboot during Emmys
Sarah Michelle Gellar landed a perfect smack to the cancellation of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer reboot on the Emmys stage.
Joined by her Buffy co-star David Boreaneaz to present Outstanding Lead Actor in a Limited or Anthology Series or Movie at the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards, the star took one moment to drive a stake through the heart of the unrealised series.
"You know, Sarah, I always through that Buffy and Angel would end up together,” said Boreaneaz.
"Well, I guess we won't find out," responded Gellar.
Gellar, who played vampire slayer Buffy Summers for seven seasons of the series from 1997 to 2003, had been working with director Chloé Zhao on a reboot, with Hulu and Searchlight Television on board. In March 2026, Gellar told People she got a call at SXSW and was told the series wasn't happening after all: "I was just about to take the stage in front of all the fans. Hulu had decided not to move forward with the Buffy revival. Let me tell you, nobody saw this coming."
For Buffy fans, the ceremony had a more heartbreaking moment, with the Emmys' "In Memoriam" segment paying tribute to late actor Anthony Head, who played debonair librarian and Watcher Rupert Giles in the series.
For everything that happened at the 2026 Emmys, we've got you covered.

I tried the keyboard layout that was supposed to replace QWERTY—here's what happened
I'm no stranger to using different keyboard layouts. I'm a big mechanical keyboard fan, and I still use typewriters, even in 2026. The IBM Selectric I grew up with had a QWERTY layout, and the vintage (well, more like dilapidated and in bad need of some oil) Smith Corona I'm using now also uses the layout. In the late 1800s, QWERTY became the standard for typewriter keyboard layouts. But in the 1930s, another layout emerged: Dvorak. It looked like it could beat QWERTY on paper, but it never quite got there. I wanted to find out why (and give it a go myself).

The 18 Pro starts at $1,199, while the Pro Max starts at $1,299 for the 256GB models (storage options go up to 2TB).

I made 5 games and tools in Excel that have nothing to do with crunching numbers
I've used Excel for long enough to know that it isn't the first tool I'd reach for when I want to draw a picture, plan a room, or design a craft project. But a blank worksheet has helped me get creative, have a bit of fun, and sometimes even solve a problem faster than I could with a piece of paper or a dedicated app. Once you stop thinking of Excel as just somewhere to enter data, its grid becomes a surprisingly useful playground.

"Gosh, sorry. This is me on a beta blocker, it's pretty bad," jokes Seehorn in the 2026 Emmys clip above, as she takes to the stage to accept the Lead Actress in a Drama Series award for Pluribus.

How to protect yourself from AI scams — McAfee+ combines AI-powered scam protection, antivirus, VPN, and more
TL;DR: McAfee+ is on sale for $89.99 for your first year. This limited-time offer saves you $110 on the list price.
Opens in a new window Credit: McAfee McAfee+ with Scam Detector Shop NowIn 2026, antivirus software is an absolute must. In fact, we’ll go one step further and say you need to be thinking beyond just regular antivirus software. This is the age of AI-powered scamming, and every day internet users — that means pretty much all of us — are vulnerable to all kinds of bad faith actors and online conmen.
Indeed, AI has raised the game with deepfakes, phishing, and other tricks designed to target your personal and financial details. Fortunately, there’s a solution to protecting yourself in 2026 — and one that will actually save you money.
McAfee, one of the top names in online protection, has launched an AI-powered scam-protection feature called Scam Detector, which integrates with McAfee’s award-winning antivirus, identity monitoring, privacy tools, VPN, and financial protection as part of the straightforward, easy-to-use McAfee+ Individual and Family plans.
You can save up to $110 on a yearly individual plan when you sign up for the McAfee+ Advanced tier, which costs just $89.99 for the first year, down from $199.99. You can also save up to $150 when you opt for the family plan, which covers six family members for $119.99 — down from $269.99. As an added bonus, all plans are covered by a 30-day money-back guarantee.
Your protection plan will pay off in the long run. McAfee research found that Americans are bombarded with an average of 14 scam messages every day, resulting in almost 114 hours per year spent trying to determine what’s real and what’s fake online. The research also found that one in three Americans has lost money to online scammers, losing an average of $1,160.
McAfee’s Scam Detector is the antivirus equivalent of fighting fire with fire. In the battle against sophisticated AI scams, it uses its own AI to identify scams before they have a chance to impact you. It does by automatically identifying suspicious texts, emails, deepfake videos, and social media DMs — as well as identifying risky sites — and providing you with warnings.
It also includes a QR code safety check. This combats one of the new ways scammers are targeting unsuspecting people: QR codes that send an increasing number of people to untrustworthy sites.
The great news is that Scam Detector is included across McAfee’s core plans at no extra cost. Whatever plan you sign up for, McAfee Scam Detector has your back.
Sign up for McAfee+ with Scam Detector and save up to $110 on a yearly individual plan.
T-Mobile is giving away the Motorola Razr+ for free — how to claim

Opens in a new window Credit: Motorola T-Mobile: Motorola Razr+ for free Shop NowEveryone needs to breathe. We know that Apple's event was a lot. We got announcements of new iPhones, Apple Watches, AirPods, and much more. There was a lot to take in, but now that the dust has settled, we can all get back to normality. And by normality, we mean free deals on foldables (no, not the iPhone Duo).
We're talking Motorola, specifically the new Motorola Razr+. This foldable phone is available for free right now with T-Mobile, and you don't even need to trade in anything to qualify. The process of claiming is actually pretty straightforward.
To get the new Motorola Razr+ for free with T-Mobile, simply activate a new line on its Experience Beyond plan. The total cost is covered via 36 monthly bill credits. If you cancel or switch carriers before the two-year mark, you’ll owe the remaining balance on the phone’s full retail price. You will need to pay taxes and a one-time $35 connection charge, but that's a small price to pay for a "damn fine phone."
If you really do need to get your hands on the latest tech from Apple, you have choices. The new Apple iPhone 18 Pro is available for free when you trade in a qualifying device and activate a new line on T-Mobile’s Experience Beyond plan. New customers who switch to T-Mobile and keep their existing number can also qualify.
Sharge Disk Pro 2 review: The swappable SSD fixes the original’s biggest flaw
Earlier this year, Sharge released its original Disk Pro portable SSD and docking station. Now, we have the Disk Pro 2, which is upgraded in every way. Sharge really listened to its users and fixed some of the biggest complaints of the Disk Pro, and that makes this the portable SSD and docking station to beat, I think.

Expect authentic goal songs, unique crowd chants, team-specific jumbotrons, and dynamic arena lighting that matches real-world game-night energy.

Dolly Parton receives moving Emmys tribute from Sally Field and Reba McEntire
Each year, the Emmys' tribute to stars who've passed away is always a moving moment, however this year's "In Memoriam" segment seemed especially sombre.
As well as paying tribute to the late Catherine O'Hara, Rob Reiner, Tim Curry, Robert Duvall, Isiah Whitlock Jr., James Van Der Beek, Anthony Head, Hayden Panetierre, and sadly many more, the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards honoured a bright light missing from this year's ceremony: Dolly Parton.
Following the screen and music icon's death in August, the Emmys saw two of Parton's friends honouring her on stage: her Steel Magnolias co-star Sally Field and country music star Reba McEntire performing Parton's 1983 ballad "Appalachian Memories."
SEE ALSO: The complete list of 2026 Emmy winners"If there are truly angels on earth, then we just lost one: Dolly Parton," said Field in her speech, seen in the video above. "Over the years, I never stopped loving her. Though we lived very far apart, I adored her from day one. How could you not? She was genuine and humble, supportive and blisteringly funny, with a bawdy sense of humor that would send any rude guy looking for a place to hide. I couldn't see then what a real giant Dolly was — not just as an artist, but as a human."
For everything that happened at the 2026 Emmys, we've got you covered.
