I’ve noticed plenty of improvements in Death Stranding Director’s Cut that would have made life a lot easier the first time around, and despite playing on the hardest difficulty, I’m having a smoother time getting around. The addition of the widescreen mode is the most significant change, as it not only alters the presentation, but also the tone of the game. Death Stranding is arguably more film than video game, and the widescreen mode just exemplifies that....

Editor’s Note: The first Inspiron 13 7000 we tested turned in surprisingly short battery life, but a second unit lasted longer while providing a dimmer display and slower solid-state drive. We noted both sets of results in this review. Design Our test unit of the Inspiron 13 7000 was the Special Edition model, which has a brushed-metal, aluminum keyboard deck and a soft-touch lid and underside. With these added touches of style, the Inspiron 13 feels and looks great, similar to a midrange sedan with upgraded interior leather....

Editor’s Note (5/8/2017): We’ve updated the battery life section to reflect the Latitude 5285’s corrected time of 6 hours and 52 minutes on the Laptop Mag Battery Test. When we first ran the test, with auto brightness on, the laptop lasted an hour less, but auto brightness is based on light in the test room and should not have been enabled during a benchmark. Design The back shell of the Latitude 5285 2-in-1 features a magnesium-alloy casing and a brushed-metal aluminum kickstand....

The tech giant this week showcased the new Dell Chromebook 5190, the latest entrant into its Chromebook 5000 series. The device can be used as a traditional notebook, but if you want a two-in-one hybrid version, Dell is also offering that option in the product line. Dell’s Chromebook 5190 comes with an 11-inch screen and promises more than 13 hours of battery life on a single charge. While Dell suggests that the Chromebook could be used for anyone and any purpose, it added that it’s been designed with durable components that would be ideal for education customers....

Unless you are swayed by 4K gaming or the curved and ultrawide trends, the Dell 2721DGF delivers an outstanding bright, vivid image. It also has the performance to match to ensure that your games don’t just look amazing when you are standing still, planning your next move, but that they maintain crisp detail even as you snap into action. While $499 isn’t a budget price, the features and performance you get from the Dell 2721DGF make it a fantastic value and one of the best gaming monitors you can buy today....

Our favorite laptop overall, the Dell XPS 13 packs long battery life, strong performance and a gorgeous, nearly-bezel free screen into an extremely light package. The base model of the regular XPS 13 weighs just 2.6 pounds and starts at $799 with a Core i3 processor, but configurations with the 3200 x 1800 touch screen, which the Developer Edition has, tip the scales at a still-svelte 2.9 pounds and start at $1,399 with a Core i5 CPU....

The new XPS 13 2-in-1 is without question among the best 2-in-1 laptops you can buy. That shouldn’t come as a surprise. Dell smartly used the XPS 13 as a blueprint for the XPS 13 2-in-1, an almost identical laptop, but with the ability to transform into a tablet. New features to this year’s edition make the XPS 13 2-in-1 more appealing than before. Intel’s 11th Gen Tiger Lake CPUs with Iris Xe Graphics deliver a solid performance and graphics boost from the previous chips....

Unfortunately, PC vendors are counting on your ignorance. They market their grainy 1366 x 768 screens as “HD,” which is technically correct but very confusing. You wouldn’t call a one-story house a high-rise, so we shouldn’t label a 1366 display as “high definition,” when it’s the lowest resolution you can get. When shopping, you need to look for a model with a display that’s at least “full HD,” which is also known as 1080p, or 1920 x 1080....

In our Surface Laptop Go review, we liked its stylish, premium design, class-leading keyboard, and great looking display. In real world tests, the Surface Go’s Intel Core i5-1035G1 CPU and 8GB of RAM easily juggled 20 tabs in the new Microsoft Edge browser — two of which played 1080p YouTube videos while another pair streamed Twitch. There were no crashes or significant lag during internet browsing photo editing in Pixlr with those tasks running in the background simultaneously....

Design Oh my God, Becky! Look at how slim. Alienware, the last of the big, chunky gaming rigs, has joined the thin-and-light league. At 4.8 pounds, 14.3 x 10.8 x 0.7-0.8-inches, the m15 is the slimmest Alienware laptop ever. This isn’t the lightest system in its class, though, as both the MSI GS65 Stealth Thin (4.1 pounds, 14.1 x 9.8 x 0.7 inches) and the Razer Blade 15 (4.6 pounds, 14 x 9....

Caring for your skin can sometimes take a backseat. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve gone to bed with a fully beat face because of the “toos”. I was too exhausted. I had too many other things to do. It was taking too long to see results. When the Foreo Your Home Spa Set came along, my skincare routine transformed for the better. With a twice-a-day regimen, my skin looks and feels like I have regular private sessions with an esthetician — hydrated, fresh, deeply cleaned and clear....

Where the Xbox Series X games reveal felt a competition for which studio could make the best post-apocalyptic shooter, the PS5 showcase was a genre-varied assortment of imaginative adventures set in fascinating worlds.
