Lenovo is working on a ThinkPad with a foldable display
[ad_1] The pen was responsive, though I generally find Samsung’s S Pen smoother. I felt some slight drag when scrawling letters on the 4:3 screen, but given we were only using an early prototype, I hope this will get better by the time the ThinkPad launches. The device isn’t just for you to use in […]

Hanu Labs’ Stone vaporizer hits like a ton of bricks
[ad_1] The Hanu Stone is the first portable vaporizer from Hanu Labs, which grew out of VapeXhale (makers of the Cloud EVO tabletop vaporizer). Now, whereas most vape pens still mimic the cigarettes and joints they were designed to replace, Hanu Labs drew inspiration for their vaporizer’s design from nature — specifically skipping stones. With […]
Uber is testing PIN-based pickup at the Portland airport
[ad_1] Basically, Uber’s PIN feature will work as follows. Instead of being assigned a specific car, passengers will wait in line at the Uber pickup zone and share their six-digit code with the first available Uber. Uber will then ask you to verify your driver’s details before you get in the car. In theory, this […]
Lenovo’s new ThinkBook laptop line is built for slimness and security
[ad_1] The hardware is mostly similar under the hood. Both sport 8th-generation Intel Core chips (up to the i7), up to 16GB of RAM, as much as 512GB of SSD storage and 1080p displays. Battery life tops out at 11 hours on the 13s and 10 hours on the 14s. If you need some graphical […]
The best lenses for Fujifilm X mount
[ad_1] The Fujinon XF 35mm F2 R WR lens is Fujifilm’s take on the nifty fifty, a solid portrait lens that won’t break the bank. It’s super sharp, small, light, weather-resistant and focuses extremely quickly. At $400, you’ll struggle to find a better lens for an X-Series camera. If you’re seriously into portrait photography, the […]
Crowdfunded ‘Outer Wilds’ drops Steam for Epic Store exclusivity
[ad_1] Not surprisingly, some backers are upset. The timed exclusive has been likened to a “bait and switch” or even false advertising — players expected a Steam release and now won’t get it until months later at best. Some have said they’ll seek refunds, while others are more concerned about the implications of releasing the […]
