Tech enthusiasts have a new way to transform their smartphones into a retro gaming experience. The GameSir Pocket Taco, a $35 controller, clamps onto the bottom of a phone, offering an easy way to emulate the feel of a Game Boy, according to The Verge. This device can also function as a standalone wireless gamepad.
The Pocket Taco is just one of many tech-related topics making headlines. For iPhone users seeking a fitness tracker, the Apple Watch remains the top choice, as reported by Wired. The publication noted that with three models available, choosing the best one has become more complex. The Apple Watch SE 3 is considered a best-value option, while the Apple Watch Series 11 is the flagship model, and the Apple Watch Ultra 3 is designed for outdoor use.
For those in the market for a gaming laptop, the choices have expanded significantly, Wired also reported. Gaming laptops now offer various priorities, including performance, thinness, cost, and design. The publication suggests that while options from their "Best Gaming Laptops" and "Best Cheap Gaming Laptops" guides are a good starting point, finding the perfect fit requires careful consideration of individual needs.
Beyond hardware, the search for alternatives to Google's Android operating system continues. Wired highlighted that while replacing Google's services is relatively easy, finding a mobile operating system free of Google is more challenging. The article noted that most alternatives are based on Android but remove Google and its services to varying degrees.
In other news, for those seeking a Valentine's Day movie, Ars Technica recommended Ang Lee's 2000 film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon." The publication described the film as a wuxia tragic fairy tale with a heartbreaking love story, stunning cinematography, and awe-inspiring martial arts sequences.
