Lilbits: Lenovo’s new gaming phone & tablets, Walmart’s new media streamers, and Microsoft Surface price hikes

Two bits of Microsoft Surface news broke this week. The company is discontinuing its large-screen Surface Hub products. And Microsoft is raising prices across the board for its current line of Surface laptops and tablets. That’s… not particularly surprising. Given the impact of rising RAM & storage costs, soon it’s going to be more newsworthy when companies don’t raise prices than when they […]

Lilbits: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide, Razer Blade 16, and more fallout from Chuwi’s processor mixup

Two recent laptops from Chinese PC maker Chuwi that were supposed to ship with AMD Ryzen 5 7430U processors actually had Ryzen 5 5500U chips inside. That means instead of getting a processor with a Zen 3 CPU, customers were getting notebooks with chips featuring AMD’s older Zen 2 architecture.

But the only way to prove this was to actually open up the computer and remove the CPU cooler to look […]

Leaked images suggest the 2nd-gen Onn 4K Pro media streamer will be an oval-shaped device (kind of like the Google TV Streamer) with Ethernet, HDMI, and USB ports and built-in mics. https://www.aftvnews.com/new-images-of-the-2nd-gen-onn-4k-pro-leak-out-with-a-clear-view-of-the-ports/ #Onn4KPro #Onn #MediaStreamer #GoogleTV

Lilbits: AYN Odin 3 is coming, TrueNAS ported to ARM (unofficially), and International packages valued under $800 no longer exempt from US tariffs

The “de minimis” exemption that allowed packages worth $800 or less to be shipped duty-free to the US is officially gone. The Trump administration ended the exemption for goods shipped from China and Hong Kong earlier this year, and now it has also ended for items shipped from all other countries… at the same time that the US government has imposed tariffs ranging from 10-percent to […]

Walmart’s Onn 4K Plus is official: $30 Google TV media streaming box

For the past few years one of the cheapest 4K-ready media streaming boxes you could buy has been Walmart’s $20 Onn 4K. The company also offers a $50 model called the Onn 4K Pro that has more memory and storage, a faster USB port, and an Ethernet jack.

Now Walmart has introduced a mid-range version that sells for $30. The new Onn 4K Plus actually started to show up in stores earlier this […]

Lilbits: Microsoft keeps adding AI to Notepad, a fix for broken Chromecasts, and Android 16 Beta 3

Microsoft Notepad has been around for decades, offering a simple tool for viewing and editing text-based documents on Windows computers. But last year Microsoft started to adding features like a spell checker (useful), and an AI-powered Rewrite utility that lets you lengthen, shorten, or adjust the tone of text (ugh).

Now Microsoft is rolling out more AI features to members of the Windows […]

Lilbits: Google’s post-Chromecast media streamer

It’s been almost exactly 11 years since Google’s first-gen Chromecast began shipping. The $35 dongle was one of the smallest, cheapest device available that allowed you to stream content from Netflix, YouTube, and other sources to a TV. And it introduced a new way to do that: the original Chromecast didn’t come with a remote control and didn’t […]

Walmart’s new Onn 4K Pro Google TV streamer is a $50 box with an upgraded processor, memory, storage, and ports

When Walmart launched its Onn 4K media streamer in 2021, the $30 box box was one of the cheapest Android TV devices available. The company followed up a few months later with an even cheaper 1080p model, and Walmart has released several updates since then that drop prices even lower, while adding support for new features like the updated Google TV […]
