North Carolina (26-9), the East Region’s eight-seed is entering this matchup after knocking off defending champion Baylor with a 93-86 overtime win. The Tar Heels led by as much as 25 points before seeing that lead vanish in the second half. UNC was able to hold Baylor to just one made field goal in OT to secure the win. Sophomore guard R.J. Davis dropped in a game- and career-high 30 points....

Fact: more audio data results in better sound quality. So, the arrival of the NuraTrue Pro with the ability to deliver uncompressed, bit-perfect CD-quality audio is likely to be sitting rather uncomfortably with plenty of wireless headphone makers right now still using compressed wireless SBC, AAC, and standard aptX audio tech, especially Apple. The Cupertino giant is rumored to be introducing its own lossless audio codec on next-gen AirPods Pro that would allow the earbuds to playback music at a higher quality via compatible devices, but thus far that hasn’t materialized....

OnePlus has a reputation for teasing upcoming devices ahead of any sort of official announcement. We knew about the first OnePlus Watch before it debuted, with the company promising one of the best smartwatches for OnePlus users would arrive soon. Though the final product ended up falling short of our expectations, it finally gave those with any of the best OnePlus phones an optimized smartwatch experience. A follow-up, the OnePlus Watch 2, has allegedly entered production in Europe in Asia (opens in new tab)....

Deadline (opens in new tab) reports that Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol won’t be receiving a second season, as Peacock officially canceled it on Monday (Jan. 24). The show is based on the Dan Brown novel of the same name which was a sequel to The Da Vinci Code (the show, however, was a prequel). You don’t need to be a detective, though, to figure out why the series failed to get renewed....

And now the latest rumor claims that Google could announce the next Pixel A Series phone at its yearly Google I/O conference, which is expected to take place in May. That would be great news. Spring is the perfect time of year to announce the Pixel 6a, especially in light of the late summer launches for that phone’s predecessors.The Pixel 4a and 5a both arrived in August of 2020 and 2021, respectively....

At only $5, Vampire Survivors was a surprise Steam success for London-based indie Poncle, but gamers were enamored with its satisfying action loop perfect for bite-size (sorry) play sessions. The iOS and Android release is a completely free but still provides a fully-fledged version, crucially it also has the option to play in portrait or landscape; I would recommend the latter. The game sees players control one of a myriad of heroes as they fight off endless waves of demons, monsters, and other nasties....

These two sides have performed similarly so far in Qatar, both opened the tournament with disappointing results, and both were dragged to a win by their star players in the second game. Robert Lewandowski scored and set one up in Poland’s 2-0 victory against Saudi Arabia while Lionel Messi did the exact same during Argentina’s 2-0 triumph over Mexico. Who will come out on top by the final whistle? Find out by watching a Poland vs Argentina live stream, and it’s simple to do so wherever you live....

In a financial presentation (opens in new tab), Sony outlined that it plans to throttle down PS4 game releases running up to 2025. And that’ll mean in around three years time there will be no more games released for the PS4 or PS4 Pro. Now, that doesn’t mean you won’t be able to buy some of the best PS4 games — it just means there won’t be any cross-generation releases as we currently have for the likes of Horizon Forbidden West and Elden Ring....

Generally speaking, I enjoyed the Burst Core’s clever “covered honeycomb” conceit, its customizable buttons and DPI and its accessible pricing. At the same time, it just didn’t work that well with my setup. If a device doesn’t always parse commands correctly in the middle of a heated session, it’s tough to recommend it as a best gaming mouse pick. However, with its affordable price and generally good performance, the Burst Core still earns a spot on our best cheap gaming mouse list....

Yes, fans of Lyonne’s time-bending show will be lighting up the second season on April 20, the date synonymous with marijuana use around the world. Netflix broke this news today (March 7) with a super-trippy trailer, where Nadia gets on board an NYC subway train and seems to be having a very bad night. But it seems like Nadia isn’t resisting, as the trailer shows her saying “when the universe f***s with you, let it!...

From the phone’s design and the display to the built-in S Pen and new camera capabilities, there seem to be a ton of upgrades coming to the Galaxy S22 Ultra, which could make it a viable candidate for our best phones list. It could also put the likes of the Google Pixel 6 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max on notice. Though we only have rumors to go on for now, we’ll be hearing all the details at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2022 event, which is predicted to happen on February 8 or 9....

The Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 should both be arriving in the next few months, and Samsung is apparently tackling one of the key aesthetic weak spots of foldables with the next generation. According to the usually reliable leaker Ice Universe — who recently revealed the “100% accurate” Galaxy Z Fold 4 specs — both foldables will feature a crease in the screen along the folding line that’s much less noticeable than previously....

At CES 2022, the company is showing off no fewer than four extendable phone and tablet concepts, showing that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 are early stops on an expansive product roadmap for the best foldable phones. Best of CES 2022: The hottest new gadgets First up is an improvement on the formula established by the Galaxy Z Fold series. What if the screen could fold over twice, allowing for an even larger tablet form factor when unfolded?...

As reported by our colleagues over at T3 (opens in new tab), Apple quietly gave tvOS 16 HDR 10+ support. HDR10+ is an HDR standard for video content that is similar to HDR10 and DolbyVision. Apple’s tvOS already supported these standards but until now had not adopted HDR10+. This was a problem for anyone who owned a Samsung TV, as Samsung TVs only support HDR10+. This is largely due to HDR10+ being designed by Samsung, but also because DolbyVision is not free to use....

While this approach may work for some people, it won’t be right for everyone, so it’s important to understand the pros and cons of paying this way before you set your sights on a new hybrid or memory foam mattress. This is important at any time, but even more so now as we head further into a cost of living crisis. To help you navigate these waters, here we take an expert look at the different types of mattress finance available during the 4th of July mattress sales, and what you should consider before making a decision....

Update: This Sony OLED TV deal is still in stock as of Dec. 5. The Sony Bravia XR A80K is a successor to the Sony Bravia XR A80J, which released last year. The A80J made both our lists of the best OLED TVs and the best TVs in general, and the A80K shares the traits that earned it that place. While we have yet to test the new A80K TV in person, we are confident that the A80K will deliver the same great performance as its predecessor....

The bad news is that massage guns can get expensive. With some costing upwards of $600, you may start to wonder if hiring a masseuse would be more economical. Fortunately, that’s not the case with the Sportneer Elite D9, which is priced well below $200. But does the Elite D9 sacrifice quality for affordability? Are you better off paying more to get a truly effective massage? Read our full Sportneer Elite D9 Massage Gun review below....

It’s no longer possible to reserve a Cybertruck in Europe or Asia, with the ‘Order Now’ button replaced with the option to sign up for updates. That means it’s only possible to order yourself a Cybertruck if you live in the U.S., Canada or Mexico. The Cybertruck has, by all accounts, been an incredibly popular vehicle. It’s not clear whether people like the idea of a Tesla truck, or the wacky ‘90s-era polygonal design, but that doesn’t really matter....

The change, which was announced by CEO and founder Elon Musk on Twitter, only applies to the United States for the moment, and will go into effect on January 17. In a follow-up tweet, Musk suggested that this may not be the last price rise, either. “FSD price will rise as we get closer to FSD production code release,” he added (opens in new tab). For now, users can still pay $199 per month for the feature if they prefer, but when asked Musk said that that the monthly price would also rise as the software gets closer to its full release (opens in new tab)....

I have to assume that the target audience for the RGB20S is on the younger side, and might not be familiar with the spate of cheap knockoffs that has plagued the market ever since the dawn of console gaming. The Powkiddy RGB20S appears to be one such console — and if you have a smartphone, then frankly, you already have a better handheld gaming device. The rectangular device features two analog sticks, a D-pad, face buttons and navigation buttons on the front, as well as four shoulder buttons on the back....
