Transparent displays -- so hot right now. But what are they actually useful for? Adam went to check out Veeo's new transparent displays at CES that post an interesting use case -- video calls that are much more personal. With a large size, low resolution, and a price tag that's nothing to sneeze at, this may seem like a questionable product, but it does make sense!

To the untrained eye, this could seem like your run-of-the-mill gaming monitor, but with a high refresh rate, QD-OLED, 1440p resolution, quick response times, and amazing colour accuracy, it's hard to find a complete package better than this. Is Linus ready to "downgrade"?

This looks almost PERFECT on paper - a high refresh rate, color accurate, a 4K resolution, and a price tag that's lower than you may think. Plouffe is here to show off the new Alienware AW3225QF and why it may be the better option than the AW2725DF Linus talked about.

TVs are great nowadays, but man are they boring. We have crazy AR headsets, folding and rolling phones, cars that can crab walk, and now we finally get something weird in the TV space -- a TV that starts out as a bench but then lifts up, unfolds, and becomes a 137" screen. Sounds complicated, but Jake is here to break it down.

NVIDIA is here with some brand new GPUs and Linus gets to be the first person in the world to unbox the new 4080 Super! With new 4080s, 4070 TIs, 4070s, and a new display tech prototype, we have a lot to go over, so let's dive right in!

Cooler Master has a LOT of great stuff to show with new fanless PSU taking the crown as star of the show. With platinum certification, high wattage capacity, a sleek design, and a price tag to match, is this the new BEST power supply you can buy?

Jake has been a fan of Minisforum for quite some time and their new MS-01 has piqued his interest even more. With some versatile IO, a small form factor, and a competitive price point, this machine can fill a lot of different roles. But that's not the only PC Jake wants to check out...

HP has been making big moves in the 14" laptop scene and their new Spectre X360 and OMEN Transcend laptops prove that they're getting pretty good at it. With an OLED screen, big batteries, refined designs, and a lot of power, Alex is here to open them up to see how they made it all fit.

The name "2-in-1" seems a bit sillier now that Lenovo has made a REAL 2-in-1 device- a Windows laptop and an Android tablet- paired into one device. Does this provide the ultimate device that lets you work with a full keyboard and still play your favourite pay-to-win games after hours? Adam is here to find out.

This 3D display is actually GOOD. - Acer at CES 2024

Acer has been making pretty decent "budget" gaming laptops for awhile now, and the new Acer Nitro V seems like it could continue to be a solid option for people looking to game on the cheap. Alex is here to see if Acer's cuts make this a no-brainer purchase or a headscratcher.

Fine folks at REDMAGIC sent us their brand new flagship phone, the 9PRO, and a couple of accessories to look at for today's video. With the brand new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, upgraded cooling, and a 6500mAh battery, the phone looks very promising on paper. Let's see if it performs as good as it sounds.

Linus tries the S24 Ultra and honestly is pretty dang impressed- definitely a HUGE step up from his Note 9 (lol), even if it doesn't have the same performance as other Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 phones we've measured...

After many years of leaks and rumours, Apple's new AR/VR headset, the Vision Pro, is finally here! With amazing passthrough cameras, eye tracking, screens, and weird personas, will Linus be impressed with Apple's offerings, or will the price tag be enough to scare him away from the "Spatial Computing" future that's been promised to us?

Thor Zone is back with a new SFF case reminiscent of Apple's slick industrial design. With a stainless-steel aluminum structure, a unibody-esque look, and wide component compatibility, the NANOQ looks to be a minimalist's dream case. The price tag may be high, but does Adam think it's worth it?

Prusa is back with another 3D printer, but this time with 5x the normal amount of heads. With a huge build volume, multiple heads for easy prints, and a new energy-saving design, does Dan think this is the enthusiast 3D printer to rule them all?

Original Title: DO NOT put your hand between this and the charger - OnePlus 12 OnePlus is back with a new "flagship killer", but with rising prices and stiff competition, can they do enough to stand out? A 50W wireless charger is a good start, but Linus is here to see if the phone is more than gimmicks wrapped in a pretty marble body.

MSI sent us their new Prestige Series laptops for us to take a look at. We explore their 16 inch Prestige AI Evo to see if it is the productivity beast the claim it is or not. Oh and we also have the baby 13 inch Prestige AI Evo :)

Inwin has made a follow-up to their DUBILI DIY case that Alex checked out at Computex last year, but this time it's smaller and bursting with character and colour. Plouffe's here to build and build in the InWin POC to see if this new trend of DIY cases is a great idea, or if brands are just tricking us into doing work.

James is an ergonomic man. He has an ergonomic chair, an ergonomic desk, an ergonomic house, and now he's on the search for the perfect ergonomic keyboard. After using the Truly Economic Cleave keyboard for a few months now, he's realized that he wants to switch things up with a split keyboard that allows for the ideal Ulnar Deviation position (does that make sense?) Will the Kinesis Advantage360 be the perfect deskmate, or is James still searching for his true ergonomic love?

AYANEO is back with ANOTHER crazy handheld, but this time it's not just a crazy design, it's crazy POWER. With a huge battery, 54W TDP, and a big and bright screen, this, on paper, looks like the luxury handheld for those with deep pockets, but Plouffe isn't so sure...

MSI sent us their new MPG 321URX QD-OLED for us to take a look at and see if it lives up to their lofty claims of displaying "the best the best picture quality and incredible high contrast when gaming". MSI says this monitor delivers an immersive gaming experience. Join Plouffe as we unbox it and dive in!

We've got to support and secure a LOT of devices on our office network which can be a challenge for even the beefiest routers and firewalls. Today Jake is showing off one of the TWO new OPNsense DEC4280s we got to show off why this expensive piece of open-source equipment is worth it for us.

Kia is back with a HUGE new SUV that could be the go-to choice for soccer/hockey/football/skiing families everwhere. With long-range, quick acceleration, and a surprisingly fair price tag, has Alex finally found the SUV for his future family?

ASUS has been listening to our prayers and has given us a laptop that may be ticking all the boxes. Nice bright screen, capable GPU, long battery, and an accessible price. Is this too good to be true? Alex is here to find out.

Ever wonder why Ludwig has such a clean butt? It's thanks to the magic of a bidet! Since North America is lagging behind the rest of the world in butt-washing technology, Ludwig created his own bidet to help wash the masses. Ludwig is here to show you how to install your Swipe+ bidet and have Linus try it out.

Well, we used to have a great network setup back when we had our studio, but now that we've moved, Jake has to start alllll over again. Thankfully, Alta Labs sent over their AP6 Pro routers and a nice new switch to help us get the most out of our neighbour's internet package. I hope everything is waterproof though...

AMD sent us the new Razer Blade 14 laptop for us to take a look at. Join Alex as he takes a quick peek at it and checks out the Labs test results. Keep watching to see if the new 2024 Razer Blade 14 can still hang with the big boys.

We all know that Plouffe loves gaming monitors, but what about portable monitors? While it may not be an AW3423DW, the espresso 17 pro has some neat tricks up its sleeve, like touch input on Mac computers and a 4K resolution. Find out if this should be your next portable monitor.

Apple is back with an upgrade for their thin and light MacBook Air and this seems to be one heck of a power boost. With the new M3 there's hardware raytracing, tons of compute power, and looooong battery life, so why get a MacBook Pro? Jake is here to check out Apple's latest laptop to see if it's worth your hard-earned money.

Adam has been using the Zenfone 10 for a while now and though he loves its compact design, it does have some flaws. ASUS is back with their new Zenfone 11, but now they've made it ~Ultra~ with a large design reminiscent of their ROG Phone 8. Will Adam think this phone is worth the death of one of the few remaining small-sized phones or has ASUS lost their niche?

Samsung makes everything these days. Their fridges, phones, and washing machines seem to be everywhere, but why don't more people talk about their laptops? Alex is here to check out the new Samsung Galaxy Book4 Ultra to see if the electronics juggernaut knows how to put together a laptop that looks great on paper without breaking the bank.
