Unboxing | Fossil Gen 6 smartwatch

Since there is no Pixel Watch I went with the Fossil Gen 6 knowing there were some positives and one huge drawback. It's running Google's Wear OS 2. To be honest, it was a tough sell for me knowing there is a newer version of Wear OS already out there. The fortunate thing is that it will see Wear OS 3 in a future update just not for months which does suck. In the meantime, there is the new Youtube Music app and Gboard we can play with for now. Check out the video for the unboxing and stick around the website for more coverage.

News on the Chrome OS 94 update

Google released Chrome OS 94 on Thursday, October 14th. Gone are the every six-week updates with the move to a monthly cadence starting with Chrome OS 96 in December. This is not the most feature-rich update Google has had to date but there are some things worth checking out. Hopefully, Google is setting us up for a big update later this year as we are still waiting on features like Android 11 and the Google Photos integration with Phone Hub. Chrome OS 94 includes new accessibility features with Select to Speak, improvements to the native Screen Recorder, and more.

Comparing the JBL 700BT to the JBL Live 460NC

  I recently purchased the JBL Live 460NC to compare against my current favorite on-ear headphones the JBL 700BT. Although I like the JBL Live 460NCs don't buy them for the noise cancellation. There are plenty of other features these headphones offer that make them compelling. Check out the video below.

Pixel 5 vs Pixel 6 vs Pixel 6 Pro Case Size Comparison

When Google first announced the Pixel 6 and the Pixel 6 Pro I thought for sure I was going to go with the Pixel 6 just based on size alone but that was until I got my hand on these cases. I tend to favor smaller Pixel's because of the ease of use and the pocketability. This year I think I am going to step out of my comfort zone and get the 6 Pro.  Some pics... And a video...
