Have you ever wished you could use your smartphone as your primary PC? There are various ways to achieve that, but how about this instead: the GPD Pocket 4. This is a handheld PC with an 8.8" screen. That puts it on the high end of "phablet" size, yet still arguably pocketable. Despite the small size, it comes equipped with a twelve-core AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 SoC, a 144-Hz QHD+ display, up to 64GB of RAM, and M.2 SSDs up to 4TB.

Video gaming is more popular than it has ever been. These days, in some capacity, essentially everyone has played a video game before, and we've mostly got the advent of smartphones to thank for that. Now anyone can play Candy Crush in a moment's notice, and although it doesn't fit into the general idea of “gaming”, it's still a game.

Samsung blocks phones from installing certain apps in latest shake-up and users say it’s ‘another annoying hindrance’

If you spend a lot of time toiling on a work desk, chances are, you spend most of that time on a computer. That’s how modern work gets done, after all. When you spend that much time sitting in an office chair in front of a PC, the overall quality of your mouse, along with your keyboard, can have a significant effect on your overall experience. That’s a big reason why majority of people use a wireless mouse for desk work these days, as it spares you from the hassle of having to deal with wires that can get tangled, bunched up, or just wreak havoc on the rest of your setup. Most wireless mice today also strike a good balance of affordability and reliability, so much so that the convenience of going wireless just absolutely outweighs any upside their wired counterparts can offer.

Although there was a time when a 6.8-inch smartphone would have been considered absurdly massive and unwieldy — a category of products we once affectionately called “phablets” — larger phones have become mainstream. These days, even the best small phones have at least 6-inch screens, and many of the best Android phones easily land in the 6.7-inch territory.
