ZDNET’s key takeaways The Sonos Era 100 is a $249 smart speaker that I recommend to most people, audiophile or not. In addition to a full, booming sound, the Sonos speaker produces crystal-clear vocals that enhance any song and has hands-free Alexa for voice control. Since the Era 100 is built for smaller spaces, it doesn’t support spatial audio or Dolby Atmos like its larger sibling, the Era 300 more buying choices The Sonos Era…

ZDNET’s key takeaways The TCL Tab 10 Nxtpaper 5G is a full-color, color paper, and ink paper tablet available at Verizon for $239. It’s a great entertainment tablet for daily use that also functions very well as an e-reader.

With a dual-camera head, the S350 indoor camera has a telephoto and wide-angle camera, plus motion tracking abilities, with a 360-degree motion rate.

ZDNET’s key takeaways The RingConn Gen 2 Air is a $200 smart ring, one of the first subscription-free and affordable smart rings I’ve tested. The battery life can survive up to eight or nine days of use, and the sleep data collection rivals Oura. The AI health partner feature is lackluster, and it’s essential to view the brand’s privacy policy, given the affordable nature of a health wearable. For a limited time, you can save…
