Wired is covered extensively through product reviews and holiday gift recommendations. Hitechreports summarizes these evaluations of consumer hardware and entertainment releases.
Wired's refreshed folding phone guide names the $1,900 Galaxy Z Fold8 and Apple's debut $1,999 iPhone Duo as top picks, with Motorola's Razr Ultra leading flip phones on battery and design.
Meta's new Ray-Ban Meta Audio glasses ditch the camera entirely, leaning on voice assistant features, transition lenses and a 12-hour battery. A Wired review calls them the most wearable smart glasses yet, camera controversies and all.
The $1,999 iPhone Duo launches Friday. A Wired reporter used only its folding 7.6-inch screen for a workday, hitting iOS multitasking limits and patchy app support, but found the battery held up well.
Roku's debut OLED TV, the Pro Series OLED, starts at $1,000 for 55 or 65 inch sizes. Wired's review found strong color and contrast but weaker brightness than pricier rivals, plus Wi-Fi 5 instead of a newer standard.
Reviews of the Microsoft Surface Laptop Ultra from Wired and Gizmodo detail a $2,600 starting price, a nearly $6,000 top configuration, a bright Mini-LED screen and the compromises of Nvidia's new ARM chip.
Wired's hands-on review of Amazon's Kindle Aluminum praises its Seaglass Green and Alpine Sky finishes and faster book loading, but says the $190 price outpaces what the hardware actually adds.
Lego's 2026 holiday catalog spans an electronic Smart Bricks Star Wars set, a new Lego Batman video game, a Lego Ideas Snoopy build and licensed Star Wars, Formula 1 and architecture sets, according to Wired's annual gift guide.
