Whether you're tired of losing your keys, you're already in the process of automating your home, or you're setting up a B&B, a vital part of the process is choosing the best smart locks that fit your needs. There are plenty of different smart locks to choose from, each with their own unique abilities. However, we recommend the August Smart Lock Pro for most people since it's super easy to set up and comes with everything you need. Best Overall: August Wi-Fi Smart Lock (4th Gen) Unlike many of the other smart locks that you'll find on the market, it isn't immediately apparent when you have an August Wi-Fi Smart Lock installed on your front door. That's because the device only gets installed on the interior of your home, so the front, so there's no indication of it from your front porch. The latest model is still a little bulky but is much smaller than previous generations. One of the things that makes this particular lock so great is that bu

Best-answer: Sony's purchase policies don't allow retailers other than the PlayStation Store to sell digital game downloads. Because of this, you'll need to buy a gift card if you want to give your friend a digital game. How to buy a digital copy of a PS4 or PS5 game for your friend Unfortunately, you technically can't gift a digital copy of a game anymore, on PS4 or PS5 . While this used to be an option, it's no longer possible. Now, if you want to give a digital game to a friend, you'll want to just send them a PlayStation Store gift card so they can buy the game themselves. It's far from ideal but it's the only real option. You can buy someone a physical game but then you'll have to ship it to them and they can't play it if they are using a PS5 Digital Edition . Why can't we gift digital games anymore? Effective as of April 1, 2019, Sony disallowed retailers to sell full digital game download codes. "We can confirm that as

OnePlus' upcoming mid-range phone will be its first without a Qualcomm chipset. What you need to know The next phone in the Nord series is called the Nord 2, and it will launch be unveiled in Q2 2021. The Nord 2 is getting a big hardware upgrade in the form of a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset. The Dimensity 1200 chipset is built on a 6nm node and features Cortex A78 and A55 cores. The OnePlus 9 is on the horizon, with the series set to make its debut sometime later this month. If the numerous leaks are anything to go by, the OnePlus 9 and 9 Pro should offer much better cameras than their predecessors. But the numbered flagship series isn't the only lineup OnePlus has to care about these days; the introduction of the Nord last year has allowed the Chinese manufacturer to make decent inroads into the mid-range segment. OnePlus Nord 2 is powered by MediaTek Dimensity 1200 The OnePlus Nord continues to be one of the best-selling mid-range phones in markets like Indi

Brave just pulled a fast one on Google Search. What you need to know Brave announces that it's purchased the Tailcat search engine and is integrating it into its web browser. The new Brave Search engine is focused on privacy and does not track or profile users. Brave browser is available for both mobile and desktop and Brave Search will be available for testing soon. The Brave web browser has set out to become one of the best Chrome for desktop alternatives , and this latest move puts it in a pretty good position. Brave announced in a blog post on Wednesday that it has acquired the open-source search engine, Tailcat, and is integrating it into its privacy-focused web browser. For those not familiar with Brave, it's an open-source web browser made using the Chromium source code. Because of this, it looks and feels like Google Chrome in many ways, although without many of its bells and whistles, while also claiming to be more battery efficient. The main difference,

The upcoming Wear OS Galaxy Watch has an elegant codename. What you need to know Samsung has been rumored to ditch Tizen for Wear OS in its next Galaxy Watch. The upcoming watch has supposedly been spotted in the source code for the Galaxy S20. The code hints at least some of the connectivity options for the rumored smartwatch. Rumors of Samsung replacing Tizen with Wear OS for its next Galaxy Watch certainly came out of nowhere. For years, the company had been pretty adamant about proving that it didn't need to rely on Google for everything. Samsung made the switch from Google's software to its own Tizen-based OS back in 2014 and hasn't looked back... until now, it seems. A developer known as ivan_meler spoke to XDA Developers about what he believes is code that references Samsung's upcoming Wear OS Galaxy Watch. It was discovered in source code for the Samsung Galaxy S20 Exynos version, and references the device which is reportedly known internally as

Imagine waking up one day only to find out you're dead. You're not exactly sure how it happened, where it happened, if someone killed you, or you just died naturally. Either way, you're trapped in a space somewhere between Earth and some other ethereal realm. It looks a lot like the last place you recall visiting, Barclay Mansion, but everyone here is... gone? Vanished? A ghost? Maybe they're just a memory. A figment of your imagination. Regardless of what they are, you appear to be trapped here, wandering the halls in search of some answers — any clue to what's going on and why. Memories echo like footsteps in the halls, people you've met before take on a haunting new look, and everything seems to be connected to one single event that happened in the last few days of your mortal life. Will you survive long enough to capture the truth about your life, or will you be cast into Oblivion for all eternity? That is the quest in Wraith: The Oblivion - Afterlife ,
