The TV market continues to evolve, both in terms of technology and pricing. 4K has replaced 1080p, and 8K is waiting in the wings. The long-running success of liquid crystal display (LCD) screens is increasingly being eroded by affordable competition from OLED panels, and don't forget features like HDR or the steady evolution of HDMI cable standards.

Headphones are great for blocking out the world and letting you enjoy your favorite music, podcast, or audiobook. Sometimes the outside world can bleed through, though, and the sound of planes, traffic, and crowds can cut into your listening experience. If you want to avoid all the noise, consider headphones with active noise cancellation (ANC) to really get the job done.

A laptop won’t revolutionize the minutiae of your life the way a smartphone can. You can’t easily whip one out to kill time in the elevator, capture a breathtaking sunset, or pay for a cup of coffee. 

But in the years since smartphones took on all these jobs, laptops have honed their own talents. Amazing battery life and breathtaking screens are now common, if you look in the right place. The graphics muscle to play games at full HD is affordable. And those basic old-guard features that you won’t find on any mobile device, such as touchpads and full-size keyboards, tend to get better with almost every generation.
