Other Models We TestedLG 12,000 BTU Air Conditioner for $379: The LG 12,000 BTU Smart Window Air Conditioner offers efficient large-room cooling at a surprisingly low price. It weighs 90 pounds and requires professional installation with a bracket. Its 60-decibel operation places it squarely in the middle of the pack on noise. This said, WIRED reviewer Lisa Wood Shapiro found it blends into a room well with its white-on-white design, and that the filter replacement indicator light is useful. The app was laggy and difficult to use during Wood Shapiro’s testing, but there is a remote.Friedrich Kuhl Air Conditioner for…

The Ergo And Sym, Same Tech In Different Shells be quiet! is now into mice, specifically wireless gaming mice with up to 1000Hz polling and a PixArt PAW3950 sensor.  The Dark Perk Ergo and Dark Perk Sym have the same specifications but the Sym is a wee bit longer and better for those that fully grip the mouse.  That added size doesn’t change the weight, as KitGuru found both are 0.055kg, better known as 55g or 0.121254lbs for those down south. As you should expect, going with 1000Hz polling does drain the battery quickly but you will still get quite…

Following the announcement that Magic: The Gathering Arena developers were petitioning to form a union last month, Wizards of the Coast has responded not by voluntarily recognizing their union, but by sending letters to employees urging them to think twice. This comes from multiple posts on Bluesky by employees who received the letter. Seemingly penned by former World of Warcraft GM and current WotC president John Hight, it includes a number of lines heavily implying that a unionized workforce would be worse off than a non-union one, including suggestions that workers may end up with worse benefits or wages than…

This September, we are getting the iPhone 18 Pro Max, which will be announced on stage by Apple’s new CEO John Ternus and other key executives. The rumor mill has been painting a pretty exciting picture for the upcoming device, which will likely get the largest battery on an iPhone so far, snatch a new 2nm chipset, and get a camera with variable aperture. Oh, and it might come in a classy red hue. As a person who has been using the iPhone 13 Pro Max for the better part of three years, I can frankly admit that if I was still…

Palantir hosted a hack week this spring to try to turn internal consternation over the company’s work with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) into clearer oversight tools for products used in the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, according to material reviewed by WIRED.The new tools provide organizations, including DHS and ICE, more information on how their workers use Palantir software. Organizations can set up alerts for “concerning behavior,” like exfiltrating datasets, and search the session logs of individual users. They also allow organizations to see which users have viewed specific sets of information.Palantir declined…

Microsoft’s multiplatform push and its promise that Project Helix will play PC games have left some core Xbox fans panicking about the platform’s pivot away from traditional console gaming. They might take comfort, then, in Xbox’s new chief strategy officer’s belief that console gaming remains “important, durable, and still growing.” That was a sentiment Matthew Ball shared with Bloomberg today in some of his first on-the-record comments since joining Xbox CEO Asha Sharma’s leadership team this week. He said his focus is on reviving storied franchises and strengthening Xbox’s console business, a mission he found “irresistible” as a long-time gamer…

Storage furniture is too often drab and functional, intended to blend into the background of your home. Mustard Made is an exception. The company’s storage lockers come in a variety of loud colors that announce themselves in a room.Mustard Made makes some of our favorite storage solutions here on the WIRED Reviews team, especially when it comes to outfitting our overflowing home offices. Julian Chokkattu from the WIRED Gear team takes Zoom meetings from a space full of high-end office chairs and brand-new gadgets, and yet my residual image of his home office will always be the stylish yellow Mustard…

Blow me Down! Techsperts were curious just how much power is in the A18 processor at the heart of the MacBook Neo and set about ensuring that heat was not a problem.  They did this by removing the system from it’s case, attaching a peltier cooler to the SoC with PTM7950 phase-change thermal paste in between and a massive amount of heatsinks to that peltier.  In order to keep that heat moving away from the heavily modified MacBook Neo they stuck it beside an industrial blower, the type you see restoration companies using after a flood. This exercise in excess…

Earlier this month, I got to play the upcoming remake of Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag at a Ubisoft-hosted event in San Francisco. While there, I got a chance to chat with Black Flag Resynced‘s creative director, Paul Fu; game director Richard Knight; and Anvil engine architect Nicolas Lopez. We talked about a lot of stuff, but I also asked them to share their opinions on something people online continue to debate: What is the difference between a remake and a remaster?  When talking to Lopez and Fu, they both clarified that Black Flag Resynced is a completely new game that…
