Nintendo Switch

iPhone & Product (Red) Edition
Sure the new iPhone Product (Red) edition didn’t change on the inside, but in this case, it’s what’s on the outside that matters. If you have an iPhone 6S or 7, you don’t need to upgrade your iPhone to a red one, but that doesn’t mean you don’t want it. It’s gorgeous.
Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8+
Samsung just announced its all new flagship, the Samsung Galaxy S8 which comes with an Infinity Display that will make any iPhone user jealous. It comes in 5.8″ or 6.2″ display sizes in a body with barely any bezels and it runs the latest version of Android. One thing to note, while almost all manufacturers are moving ahead without the reliable 3.5mm audio jack, Samsung left it in allowing users to go with their wired headphones. Both versions can be preordered now for release on April 21st.
LG G6
Maybe you don’t like curved displays and we don’t blame you. They’re too easy to touch and can make navigation more difficult than it needs to be on your smartphone. LG’s G6 manages to minimize its bezels without curving the screen and it does it in a smaller package than the S8 and S8+. It comes with a 5.7″ display, runs the latest version of Android and might be easiest large display phone to use in one hand. The LG G6 is available now.
Apple iPad
Only Apple can make users excited over its new iPad which uses an old design with old technology. Rather than dialing up the specs and doing away with bezels, Apple built a new iPad at a very affordable $329 price point. Apple’s products are very usable and run for several years with software updates that Android counterparts rarely ever see. This price point makes the iPad good for anyone who wants to consumer media, or for children who need technology for school. The iPad is available now across retailers.
Samsung Galaxy Tab S3
Samsung couldn’t let Apple and Microsoft own the premium tablet market and came out with the ultra-powerful Galaxy Tab S3.

It has four speakers and a gorgeous HDR AMOLED display. Prices start at $599.

It only requires two cords to set it up – one for power and one for connected to your TV for true 5.0 sound. If you want more bass, simply connect the SONOS wireless subwoofer for richer sound. The PLAYBASE will be available for purchase on April 4th.
Sony Wireless Speakers
Sony has been an industry leader in portable audio for decades. In recent years, it lost some of its popularity to BEATS, Ultimate Ears and SONOS. Sony isn’t sitting in the backseat any longer with the release of its new wireless SRS-XB speakers that are waterproof, have all day battery life, can pair up to 10 speakers at the same time, and come with built-in lights to bring life to any party.
