Become one of those people, you won't regret it. I can't tell you how many people have come in to my house, seen this weird tub of gently moving water on my counter, and delicately asked why it looked like I had dinner in a bubble bath. Sous Vide cooking looks weird as hell, because it cooks your food in a water bath instead of in the oven. The science behind how it works is fascinating, but even more impressive is how everything I make inside it tastes. The weird looks from friends are worth it when they taste what you've made, and immediately ask how to get this rig for their house. Thanks to Amazon's Prime Day sales, the best Sous Vide kit for beginners is on sale for way cheaper than it usually is . If you've been curious about trying this trendy cooking technique out, today is the day. This more advanced version is capable of reaching higher temperatures much faster and maintaining those higher temperatures without any issues. The Anova Cu

July 3, 2018 — Project Treble and a new UI come to the OnePlus 5 and 5T! Open Beta 13 and 11 for the OnePlus 5 and 5T is rolling out to users now, and it certainly sounds like one of the most exciting upgrades we've seen in a while. Right off the bat, this Open Beta brings Project Treble support to both phones. This is the new update system from Google that allows for much faster turnaound times with new software, so it's great to see that it's making an appearance with the 5 series. OnePlus highlights a "brand new user interface" that changes the appearance of the Phone app, settings, power menu, and more. The UI is still recognizable as OxygenOS, but the subtle visual improvements are a welcome touch. Even more exciting, there are now considerably more pre-made accent colors to choose from and you can finally customize your own colors to your exact liking. Here are some of the other goodies you'll find: Improved search tags in the

While NVIDIA had already discounted its SHIELD TV with both the remote and controller beginning yesterday, it has discounted the cheaper model with just the remote for Prime Day. Bringing the price of the SHIELD TV down to just $139 right now. That brings this back down to its all-time lowest price, and also matches the price it had on Black Friday. NVIDIA doesn't typically discount the SHIELD TV, so this is a pretty big deal, and a great time to pick up the SHIELD TV for those looking to grab one. The NVIDIA SHIELD TV is an Android TV set-top box and does feature many of the big name apps, allowing you to stream your favorite TV shows and movies over your WiFi network on the big screen. Some of the apps available include Hulu, Netflix, YouTube, Sling TV and many other apps as well. NVIDIA has also been promoting the SHIELD TV as a gaming console, and rightfully so. It's a very powerful set-top box that also does really well with gaming. You'll find a number of great ga

Amazon's biggest day of the year is upon us. This year, Amazon is discounting millions of items for not just a single day, but a full day and a half. So for 36 hours, you'll be able to save a ton on all sorts of items. Whether that's a new TV, a new smartphone, some paper towels or really anything else that Amazon has on its site. Nothing is off limits, and Prime Day is actually a big day for Amazon. In 2017, Amazon had more deals available on Prime Day than on Black Friday, which is pretty impressive. Prime Day is only available for Prime members, so if you are not an Amazon Prime member, you'll want to make sure you sign up for a free 30-day trial to take advantage of all of these deals that Amazon has available. Below, we have a running list of all of the great deals that Amazon has going on. These are broken down into a few categories, including Smartphones & Tablets, Mobile Accessories, Cameras, Headphones & Speakers, TV's & Video Games and Smart

This Nintendo Switch comes with two freebies you don't want to miss out on. Today only, Amazon is offering a Nintendo Switch bundle for $299.99 which includes the console along with a 64GB micro SD card and a $20 Nintendo eShop gift card. Considering the console itself is rarely discounted from its regular price of $300, this offer is like getting the $22 memory card and $20 gift card for free with its purchase. This is a Prime Day deal however, and as such, it's only available for Prime members. If you're not a member, you can still get this discount by starting a free 30-day trial . The bonuses you'll receive here might seem not as cool as getting a game with the console, but they're actually better. The Switch has a ton of games that you can only purchase digitally which save onto your console directly, and there are other physical games which require the use of a micro SD card.

To celebrate the growing success of Amazon and the company's Prime Day event, Master & Dynamic are joining in. Master & Dynamic is offering its MH30 on-ear headphones for sale. The headphones usually are priced at $300 but will be available online for $200, only while Prime day is going on. You do have to use a coupon code to access the deal, contrary to Amazon's sales, the code is 'MH30FLASH'. If you think you've heard of the Master & Dynamic brand here before we wouldn't blame you.

Master & Dynamic is a company that takes pride in its products, not only with their build but also their presentation. If you've never had a luxury audio product before this is the best time to invest. With the sale going on, it is more than easy to start a new life in audio with the MH30.

The time has come, our Smartphone World Cup goes to the semi-finals! While the football world champion was just crowned in Russia this past weekend, our goal is to find the smartphone with the best camera - and only the best of the best have made it to the semi-final! I would like to protect myself from the risks for ransomware. Do you agree? For many smartphone fans, this is the anticipated World Cup final: The  Huawei P20 Pro  competes against the  Google Pixel 2 ! The explosiveness of the duel is not only due to the fact that this is a triple camera against a single camera, but also because these are the only two smartphones in the tournament with clear wins under their belts so far. But, this final is only one of two! The rules of the game should seem familiar to you by now. In the blind test, you see the photos side-by-side without knowing which device shot them, so there's no bias in the vote. We're collecting all th

Jul 16 AT 12:56 PM Dima Aryeh 0 Comments Much like the Samsung Galaxy S9  was to the Galaxy S8 , the Galaxy Note 9 isn't expected to be a big upgrade over its predecessor. It will simply be an iterative upgrade with improvements to the specs and that awful fingerprint sensor location. Surprisingly, the CEO of Samsung Electronics DJ Koh was spotted using a Galaxy Note 9 in public. The photo is fairly low resolution, but we can see that the fingerprint sensor is below the camera. And of course he's using the S Pen, a dead giveaway for the upcoming device. The photo doesn't give us any details on the device but it's good to see that it's ready for prime time. Previous leaks say that the S Pen will gain some new features  thanks to Bluetooth connectivity.Now all we have to do is wait for the eventual release!

Essential teased an upcoming Amazon Prime Day deal last week and have now confirmed what it will be: $250 for an Essential Phone . Do we think the year-old Essential Phone is still worth it at $250? Oh, hell yes. It still gets monthly security patches as quickly as Google's phones, is on its 3rd Android P build (and it runs pretty good too), and still looks and feels amazing in hand. The camera isn't really flagship level and performance has some stuttering still (but has improved), but we're now talking about those things at $250. I'm not sure there is another phone I'd buy over this at $250. Also, here is our original review followed by our re-review . I'd say that things have improved even more since. You might want to hurry if interested. Amazon Prime Day kicks off at 12PM Pacific (3PM Eastern) and if this deal goes live right away, it might sellout within minutes.

It's easier than you think, and it's worth doing for some users. Chromebooks are wonderful for schools and businesses, provided you primarily use Google services. But a brand new Chromebook doesn't make an existing machine any better, and new hardware is a quick way to blow throw an IT budget. Here's how to convert a Windows laptop to a Chromebook! Why do this? Download Cloudready Install Cloudready What to do next What's different from Chrome OS Why do this? Yes, I hear you in the comments section and on Twitter. "Why would I want to make my computer LESS useful?!" That's a fair question, but the answer depends on what "less useful" means to you. If you're a school or corporate IT administrator starting to transition your enterprise to Chromebooks, being able to convert your existing hardware will save you thousands of dollars on replacement machines. Especially considering the converted Chromebooks wi

There are Android smartphones on the market today at every price point. With  Prime Day  though, Essential is making a massive cut on its PH-1, and it makes it the best Android phone you can buy  today . The best gifts for Android users The Essential Phone has a bit of a mixed history. It was massively hyped ahead of its launch, but fell pretty flat due to a high price and poor camera. Since then, the massive price tag has been cut down significantly , and it's a way better phone now . Its camera has also been improved a whole lot too. Now, for Prime Day, it's just $250 . For that price, it's the best Android phone you can buy today, period, and there are a few core things that make that the case. The Specs & Build Just looking at the Essential Phone on paper, this thing is already one of the best deals on the market just for its spec sheet, and that's at the retail price of $499. You're getting a Snapdragon 835, 4GB of RAM, 1

... Prime Day is in full swing, but it can be hard to keep track of all the different sales happening. Even a few third-party retailers seem to be trying to divert a bit of that attention to themselves with their own promotions. To make things a bit easier for our readers, we're keeping track of all the stuff that we spot together in one place, right here. VIDEO Like always, we do our best to make a comparison to real prices, rather than just the ridiculously inflated advertised discount or MSRP, so this list (ideally) shouldn't have anything on it that was marked up only to be discounted. We're comparing things to real-world historical numbers. It's a  lot more work for us (read: me), but it's better for you. Also note: All items are sold from Amazon unless otherwise specified. Let's get started. Phones Essential PH-1 Our review . TL;DR: Mediocre camera, good stock software, has a notch, no headphone jack, inp

Google is now offering $300 in Fi service credit for those who order a new LG G7 ThinQ or LG V35 ThinQ, making this a good opportunity to save on two relatively new and high-profile LG smartphones . The deal is live now (July 16) and will remain active until 11:59 PM PT on July 29, 2018. Or of course, " while supplies last ." $300 in bill credits is a fair amount on any carrier although it could prove to be even more beneficial when used with Fi . This is due to the billing system where Fi customers only effectively pay for the data they use. In short, Fi charges $20 per month for the baseline package which includes unlimited talk and text. From then on, it works out to be an additional $10 for each GB of data used. So those consumers who are light on data and able to stay below the 1GB limit each month can expect to pay $30 per month. The most anyone should ever expect to pay each month is the $20 base price and 6GB's worth of data at $60 – so $80 per month in total.
