As exciting as it was when the Fenix 8 Pro added LTE and satellite in a compact wearable device, its $1,200+ price tag made it a tough sell, and its small size limits areas like battery life. Now, Garmin is launching the InReach Mini 3 Plus, an SOS satellite handheld communicator that may be a more practical option for serious backpackers who spend time in cellular dead zones. Unlike past InReach models like the Messenger Plus or Mini 2, the InReach Mini 3 Plus has a touch display that spreads across most of its body, in addition to the usual nav buttons. This will make menuing and sending messages on the device significantly easier, where before you had to tap through letters one…...

However, Nvidia's shares saw a slight dip of about 1.5-2% amid investor caution over the size of the investment and its potential impact on the company's short-term cash position. The acquisition is…...

I previously reported that AYANEO announced the NEXT II, its newest flagship handheld, with some truly insane specs and features that border on the ridiculous side. While the powerful AMD Ryzen AI Max+ 395 processor and massive 9.06-inch OLED display with a super high refresh rate and resolution are impressive, it was really the 115Whr battery that made my eyes widen. The AYANEO NEXT II might have more impressive specs than the Xbox Ally X, but that battery could cause problems for anyone who wants to fly with this niche gaming device.
