The Asus ROG Raikiri II is the best third-party Xbox and PC controller you can buy right now, period. Packing impressive TMR sticks and triggers that let you precisely fine-tune your movements and give you a competitive advantage, the Raikiri II boasts peerless gaming performance. Long battery life, extensive customization, and 1,000Hz polling set it apart from the competition, and the ergonomic design ensures all-day comfort. While the charging dock feels a little cheap and the controller itself is a little expensive, neither of those is a massive dealbreaker.

Since 1995, the IKEA PS line has served as the Swedish brand's experimental heart. This year marks the 10th collection, and based on my conversation with some of the team behind it on launch morning, it’s clear that this year's vision isn’t just about internet-breaking furniture.
As Anna Granath, Range Manager for IKEA PS 2026, explained to me: "Right now there is also quite a lot of darkness in the world and we need to have a little spark of joy through everyday life, right?"

Six years after Apple dropped Intel in favor of its own M-series processors, the two tech giants are reportedly partnering again on new silicon.
Last week, The Wall Street Journal that Apple and Intel had struck a preliminary deal to produce chips after a year of bargaining. That report did not include what devices those processors would fill.
But now a new report from supply chain analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claims that Apple and Intel have already started initial production of processors for iPhones, iPads and some Macs. Per Kuo, roughly 80% of the chips are meant for iPhones.

AMD just lit a beacon of hope for gamers with older Radeon RX graphics cards. As VideoCardz reports, Jack Huynh, AMD Senior Vice President and General Manager of Computing and Graphics, says the company is bringing its FSR Upscaling 4.1 support to RDNA 3 GPUs this July.
Currently, FSR 4.1 (AMD’s answer to Nvidia’s DLSS) is only available for Radeon RX 9000 cards featuring the latest RDNA 4 technology. When this update goes live in July, Radeon RX 7000 can get in on the upscaling action. Best of all, over 300 games will be supported at launch.
AMD hasn’t forgotten about folks using older RDNA 2 GPUs, as FSR 4.1 will be coming to those cards sometime in early 2027.

JBL's newest premium headphones, the Tour One M3, have broken my brain. Not because they're terrible — quite the opposite. Because they come with the one thing I wish all the best Bluetooth headphones would include: a USB-C transmitter (alongside Bluetooth, of course).
With a transmitter, I'm never fumbling for a Bluetooth connection or unpairing on one device and pairing on another. All I have to do to change my output device is literally move the transmitter. As it has a USB-C connector, I can switch from my work MacBook to my iPhone 16 Pro to my personal laptop in literally seconds. And... it doesn't stop there. In theory, you can connect these headphones to anything that has a USB-C port — Bluetooth or not.
On a long-haul flight, and don't want to use the airline's nasty headphones to watch your movie? USB-C port. Want to hear the TV in my headphones? USB-C port (as long as your TV has one, of course). I wish all audio brands would take heed and do a JBL.

Earlier this year, rumors popped up claiming Amazon was trying to revive the long-dormant Fire Phone in a new secret project dubbed "Transformer." The new device would integrate with Amazon Alexa and other Amazon services.
This week, in a new interview, Amazon's head of devices and services, Panos Panay, said that the company is "not necessarily" working on a smartphone, but he didn't entirely shut the door.
Panay spoke with the Financial Times in a wide-ranging talk that covered his views on how people use Amazon devices like the Kindle, to the ongoing satellite project Leo, meant to deliver "broadband to everyone at an affordable price."

If you're thinking about watching "Dutton Ranch" on Paramount+ this Friday (May 15), and you're worried it won't live up to the example set by "Yellowstone," I have bad news for you ... I have never watched a full episode of "Yellowstone."
However, I have watched a lot of Taylor Sheridan in recent years, including "Landman" season 2, "The Madison" and the first four episodes of "Dutton Ranch." I can tell you that of those three, I'd pick this latest entry in the Sheridanverse ten times out of ten.
That's not to say the show is flawless. There are inarguably some performances that are stronger than others. There are also more than a few soap-worthy melodramatic moments through the first four episodes of this nine-episode first season. But there are genuinely enjoyable performances, and the main storyline that has formed through these four episodes is compelling.

For All Mankind is easily one of the best shows to hit streaming over the past few years, and easily a highlight of Apple TV's already-exceptional library of original TV shows. The concept of "What If" has always appealed to me, especially with science fiction, and it is fascinating to see a version of our world where the space race never ended.
One thing I particularly like seeing is how technology has advanced differently in the show, in part due to the alternate timeline's increased push into the great beyond throughout the '80s and '90s. The show acknowledges those changes in a bunch of different ways, and I've been taking great pleasure in trying to spot as many as I can.
As a result, I've become a little bit obsessed with For All Mankind's take on the iPhone, which has been showing up throughout the fifth season.

If you're bored with the AirPods Pro 3, JBL has just announced three alternatives that could sway you. JBL has launched its newest line of premium earbuds: the Live 4 series. The Live Buds 4, Live Beam 4, and Live Flex 4 boast JBL Smart OS 3.0, new and improved Personi-Fi, a Smart Charging Case and more colors — which I'll talk about later. JBL has also stuffed four mics with AI noise-reducing algorithms for crystal-clear calls.
Unlike other brands, JBL makes the same earbud in different wearing styles. "Buds" are Sony WF-1000XM6 "bean"-type, "Beam" are similar to AirPods Pro 3-competitor with silicone ear tips, and the Flex style is like the tipless AirPods 4. Now, you don't have to compromise premium features or sound if you don't like silicone ear tips, unlike Apple and Samsung's earbuds.
All styles of the Live 4 — Buds. Beam, and Flex — are available in black, blue, silver, and sand. The Beam (stem and silicone tip) and Flex (stem but no tip) are also available in green, purple, and orange.
