Upgrade Your Computer Speakers With These Discounted Edifier M60s

Upgrade Your Computer Speakers With These Discounted Edifier M60s

Published by skeptic

Tired of the tinny, flat sound you’re getting from your current computer speakers? Even the best gaming screens tend to have lackluster audio, if they include it at all, so we recommend either a pair of headphones or a great set of desktop speakers. Our favorite pick at $200, the Edifier M60, is currently marked down to just $170 on Amazon, a $30 break from the usual price. Edifier has a pedigree and a long history of making great, compact speakers. The M60 is no different. They boast clear, vibrant sound that helps bring games, videos, and music to life in a way your monitor and cheaper speakers can only dream of. They stay true to that sound profile even when you crank the volume up, without any distortion or crackling. One of the areas you’re compromising on is the bass. A number of our other, more expensive speaker sets include a dedicated subwoofer, which makes a huge difference with those big explosions in your favorite game or movie, but it’s a livable compromise considering …

Shortcut Your System With a Discounted Elgato Stream Deck+

Shortcut Your System With a Discounted Elgato Stream Deck+

Published by skeptic

If you’re an aspiring (or successful) streamer looking to upgrade your production value, the Elgato Stream Deck family is an excellent way to put your most important controls at your fingertips. Right now you can score the upgraded Elgato Stream Deck +, with eight buttons, an LCD screen, and four knobs, for just $160, a $40 markdown from its usual price. As a former (unsuccessful) Twitch streamer, I can attest firsthand to how useful the Stream Deck was for managing my broadcasts while also gaming and dealing with chat. The main draw here is close integration with streaming platforms like OBS, letting you adjust stream parameters, mute or unmute audio tracks, and even change layouts with the press of a button. That made it exceedingly easy to switch to my AFK screen when I needed a break, run end of stream credits and music, or adjust my audio levels in response to viewer feedback, all tasks that might’ve required hands-on time with OBS instead. In addition to streaming specific integrations, you can also set the …

Published by skeptic

While iOS users have an easy smartwatch choice in the Apple Watch, Android owners have a few more options, as well as face shapes, to choose from. The semi-squircular Samsung Galaxy Watch8 and Watch 8 Classic have both a unique look and set of health features, and are currently marked down to as low as $280 at Amazon for the 30mm Bluetooth version, or as low as $433 for the Watch8 Classic. Photograph: Julian Chokkattu Photograph: Julian Chokkattu Samsung Galaxy Watch8 and Watch8 Classic As the first watches to sport Google’s Wear OS 6, these made waves when they released with bigger, bolder watch faces, and an improved interface that shows more information. It has a 1.5-inch AMOLED screen that’s generously sized even on the 40mm version we tested, and has more than enough brightness to check on a sunny day. Both watches feature the kind of physical activity and health tracking data you’d expect from a modern smartwatch, including steps, heart rate, and both sleep quality and bedtime guidance, which recommends when you should …
