The leaks so far about the Galaxy S26 Ultra are not Earth-shattering. Sure, Privacy Display looks to be an amazing new feature, but a $12 privacy tempered glass protector will do 90% of the job for a lot less…

The Asus ROG Xbox Ally is now $110 off on Amazon, and while it may…
Smartphones are expensive enough, so I’m all for buyers picking up devices that get the job done for significantly less than flagship or even midrange phones. The Moto G 2026 falls into that category, giving you decent performance for under $200. With a carrier deal, you can save even more, and that’s precisely what T-Mobile is currently offering.

You’ll have to stick with T-Mobile for 24 months to get all the bill credits, but if you don’t switch often, it’s a…

As spotted on X, OpenAI has built a full-screen onboarding experience to introduce users to ads in ChatGPT.
