Why you should buy the Beats Studio Pro

The TLDR of the Beats Studio Pro: A comfortable fit meets excellent sound quality and outstanding ANC performance. Beats never disappoint when it comes to cross-genre compatibility, and the Studio Pro is no exception. Expect full and balanced sound with a bit of extra oomph in the low end. The headphones also use an adaptive ANC system that does a phenomenal job at canceling out unwanted sounds while honing in on what’s important (via the Transparency mode).

The Studio Pro have a USB-C port for charging up the cans, but you’ll also be able to use the connection for wired playback. There’s also a 3.5mm auxiliary port if you’d prefer to keep the USB-C open for charging. Speaking of which, the Studio Pro should last up to 40 hours on a full charge, and just 10 minutes of recharging nets you an extra 4 hours of battery life.

Purchase the Beats Studio Pro while they’re still on sale, and maybe take a quick gander at our lists of the best Beats headphone deals, best Bose headphone deals, and best headphone deals before you take off. We guarantee you’ll find something new, cool, and exciting!

I desperately want a new classic Walkman, but Sony probably can’t give me one

Tech minimalism is begging for a new Walkman. Though rebuilding it may be close to impossible

Sony Walkman WM2011

Every few months, another piece of tech that seems obsolete crawls out of a drawer and becomes cool again. The age of minimalism has revived the popularity of iPods among younger buyers. Dumbphones have become an escape hatch from endless notifications. Similarly, digital cameras are dangling from bags again. Physical media keeps attracting people who want something they can actually hold instead of another frustrating subscription.

All of this makes it the perfect time for Sony to bring back the classic Walkman, which was a phenomenon during the 80s and 90s. I would love one. Give me a compact cassette player, physical buttons, and wired headphones. Keep the apps, notifications, and algorithms that shape your taste of music. No more AI assistants or personalzied feeds, just you and your Walkman. There is only one problem though. Recreating the Walkman that people love and remember, would be far harder than putting an old design back into production.

Proton reveals how smart TVs track you and the escape situation is pretty grim

Modern smart TVs fingerprint your screen content at the chipset level.

Your smart TV may know far more about your viewing habits than you realize, even if you rarely use its smart features. In a new privacy explainer, Proton warns that many modern TVs quietly collect data about everything displayed on the screen and share it with manufacturers, advertisers, and analytics companies.

The worrying part is that escaping this tracking is becoming increasingly difficult because many privacy controls are buried deep in settings or enabled by default. Proton argues that buying a smart TV today often means accepting a level of surveillance that most people never knowingly signed up for.

LG is cracking down on smart TV apps that quietly turn your TV into a secret proxy

LG OLED Settings

If you own an LG smart TV, there's a chance one of your harmless-looking apps has been moonlighting as an internet relay for someone else's traffic. According to a report from KrebsOnSecurity, LG says it's finally stepping in to stop this menace. This week, the company confirmed it plans to suspend any webOS app that turns a TV into what's called a residential proxy node.

The move follows a report from security firm Spur, which found that more than 42 percent of apps on LG's webOS store include SDKs that quietly reroute internet traffic through your TV, indefinitely. Samsung isn't spared either, with over a quarter of Tizen apps carrying similar code.
