Bag yourself a bargain in LG Display’s Black Friday sale - Engadget

If you've been sleeping on getting yourself a new display, then it's worth checking out what LG is knocking money off this Black Friday. That includes the 32UL750-W, its 32-inch 4K LED monitor with Vesa Display HDR 600, which will now set you back $469, down from its regular price of $635. If that's a little too pricey, and you just need a 4K monitor with AMD FreeSync, you can bag the 32UD60-B 4K for $299.99, down from $458.50.

Buy LG 32UD60-B 4K UHD Monitor with AMD FreeSync on Amazon - $300

Ultrawide monitor fans might want to take a gander at LG's 34WK650-W, a 34-inch 21:9 IPS monitor with HDR10 and AMD FreeSync. The one downside is that, according to The Wirecutter, while it's great for gaming and movies, it doesn't have the detail necessary for work. If you can take that caveat, however, then you can grab this for just $289.99, down from $346.97.

Finally, there's LG's romantically named 27GL650F-B, a 27-inch Full-HD G-Sync gaming monitor with a 144Hz refresh rate and HDR10. The resolution may not be the highest, but G-Sync variable refresh rate and HDR support for $199.99 (down from $349.99) is worth talking about.

You'll need to be quick, and decisive, if you want to pick up any of these deals, since they'll expire at 11:59pm PT tonight -- or at 2:59am if you're on the East Coast.

Android 10 rolling out to Samsung Galaxy S10 series, starting with Germany - Android Police

Samsung has been testing Android 10 on its Galaxy S10 series extensively, with one beta update chasing the other over the last few weeks. The company is apparently finally satisfied with the software, as it has just started rolling out the stable release with version 2.0 of One UI in tow. It looks like it's only coming to some people in Germany who are currently using the beta, but it can't take too long until it arrives at more customers.

The stable release will roll out with all the Android 10 goodies, like a system-wide dark theme, more granular location permissions, and a new gesture-based navigation. Samsung has also tweaked its One UI skin by adding more ways to access the one-handed mode, making the battery usage graph more detailed, and improving its Samsung apps.

Samsung Galaxy S10 One UI 2.0 Android 10 update
  • Version: G973FXXU3BSKO (Galaxy S10), G970FXXU3BSKO (Galaxy S10e), G975FXXU3BSKO (Galaxy S10+)
  • Size: 133.76MB
  • Security patch level: December 1, 2019

For beta users, the update is merely 133.76MB big since there are probably only minor changes compared to the last pre-release software, beta 7. Interestingly, the new version comes with the December security patch level which Google hasn't even officially pushed to the Pixels yet. This might indicate a false start, or maybe Samsung wants to test the update with current beta testers before a wider rollout next week, in December.

It's also odd that SamMobile says the software is coming to Germany even though it provides a Dutch screenshot, but a German user on Reddit shares that they received the update as well. Maybe a Dutch expat is using their phone in their native language.

Check if the update is available to you by heading to Settings -> Software Update. You can download and install it from there once it's live. If you're already using beta 7 on your Galaxy S10 device, you may also try your luck and sideload the stable OTA files from PiunkaWeb.

Best Black Friday 2019 iPad deals: The biggest Apple iPad savings available now - CNET

03-ipad-2019-10-2

Picking an iPad this year may feel crazy, but there's a logic to it.

Sarah Tew/CNET
This story is part of Black Friday 2019, our roundup of the best deals on today's tech.

The Apple iPad is always a popular product for some great savings. This tablet line has gotten larger as time has gone on, which can make it confusing to decide on which one to buy. But there's good news for any potential iPad shopper this Black Friday All of the options are amazing, and iPad discounts are many. It's just a matter of how much you'd like to pay.

Unlike last year, Apple hasn't released a new version of the top-end iPad Pro. But the recent 10.2-inch budget-line iPad is better than ever. Or should you get the Mini? Or, the iPad Air?

Let's dive in. (By the way, here's the proper etiquette for buying tech gifts in general, and here's what to consider when buying smart home gifts.)

42-ipad-2019-10-2

The 10.2-inch iPad is totally fine.

Sarah Tew/CNET

iPad 10.2-inch (2019): The best for most

The 10.2-inch model is CNET's Editors' Choice for a reason: Even though it has an older A10 processor, it works perfectly well with the latest iPadOS, has a slightly bigger screen, supports the Apple Pencil, and now works with Apple's older Smart Connector keyboard accessories. It's already on sale, too. I'd consider the 128GB model, though, over the 32GB, especially if you're planning on downloading movies. The ideal size I would have recommended would have been 64GB... which, of course, Apple doesn't sell.

There are several sales on this model, and probably more to come. Amazon is offering about $49 off both storage sizes of the iPad, plus an extra $30 with "no rush shipping," meaning either $280 or $250 for the 32GB version. (I'd recommend the 128GB version, though).

Best Buy is offering the iPad for $250, but you need to sign up for a free Best Buy reward program membership.

iPad (2018): Almost the same as the 10.2-inch iPad

You could save even more by getting last year's model of the entry-level iPad, which has the same A10 processor (and also supports Apple Pencil). Amazon is selling the LTE, 128GB version for $429 ($130 off), which is the most affordable way to an LTE iPad...but do you really need LTE? (I'd say no.)

01-ipad-2019-10-2

The iPad Air (left) versus the 10.2-inch iPad (right). The Air has better specs and a slightly thinner body.

Sarah Tew/CNET

iPad Air (2019): Step up from basic 

The difference between the entry-level 10.2-inch iPad and the iPad Air released this year is basically a better A12 processor, and a slightly bigger screen (10.5 inches). It's also a bit thinner. Anyone who wants a bit more graphics oomph for photo or video work could consider this a way to split the difference between the basic iPad and the iPad Pro. You'll find it for $469, a discount of $30, at B&H electronics.

The 2017 iPad Pro is like the 2019 iPad Air, with a couple of extras

Save yourself the headache and know that the 2019 10.5-inch iPad Air is a slightly more budget version of the 2017 10.5-inch iPad Pro. The Pro from 2017 has a faster-scrolling 120Hz display, better quad speakers and slightly different cameras. If you can somehow get it for less than the Air above, it's well worth it! The 2017 iPad Pro's on sale below, but at a higher cost than the iPad Air.

011-ipad-pro-2018

Note: Pencil and keyboard case sold separately.

Sarah Tew/CNET

iPad Pro (2018): The fanciest option, but...

For the right price, last year's iPad Pro is still a great pick. Its A12X processor is extremely powerful, it has Face ID (which is great on an iPad), supports newer Pencil accessories that stick to the side to charge, its optional keyboard case is great (and expensive), and it supports USB-C. Amazon has the 11-inch 64GB Pro for $120 off, but even then it's still $674. (Other storage sizes are available at less impressive discounts.)

ipad-mini-2019-10

The iPad Mini's smaller size and upgraded specs are unique.

Angela Lang/CNET

iPad Mini (2019): Not a bad travel proposition

The smaller 7.9-inch iPad was upgraded this year with an A12 processor and Pencil support, and it's a great smaller tablet. It's normally too expensive to justify over the entry iPad, but Black Friday sale deals could make it a tempting travel gadget. It's not so great for typing, though, and the $15 off deal below isn't very much off the regular price.

Consider at least 64GB of storage

Some of the basic iPads start with just 32GB, which doesn't cut it. Some models start with 64GB, which is acceptable. If you're downloading movies for trips or plan on putting lots of games onboard, consider 128GB. I wouldn't consider 256GB and up unless you're a video editor.

For kids, Fire tablets or Chromebooks are worth considering

Amazon's always-crazy-low tablet sales on Fire tablets are tempting if you have Amazon Prime or live in Amazon's ecosystem. As ultra-budget tablets for videos and games, they're totally fine. 

Chromebooks are excellent choices as secure kid-friendly laptop alternatives, or for anyone who might want a laptop-type browser without a full computer price. 

iPad at any price?

If you're treating yourself, last year's iPad Pro is a stellar laptop alternative, provided you can live in Apple's controlled iOS world (iPadOS, the name of the iPad-focused iOS 13 update this year, does have a far better browser, improved Pencil support and file access). Apple might update the iPad Pro as early as spring next year, though, so maybe you should also consider getting an IOU.

Cellular? Skip

The extra $129 for an LTE antenna (and the cost per month of a cellular plan on the iPad) aren't worth it, unless you're dying to use LTE on a tablet or have someone who's footing the bill. Tether with your phone instead.

Save some money for dongles and Pencils and things

Your purchase, sadly, doesn't end with just the iPad. You'll want a case for that delicate tablet, and probably one of Apple's Pencil styluses (the old one for most iPads, and the new one for the 2018 iPad Pro). A keyboard case is useful, and costs extra too. If you get the USB-C iPad Pro, you're also going to want a few dongles (like one for a headphone jack).

Alexa is about to be very disappointed - TechCrunch

A general lack of judgement has always been one of the strongest appeals of smart assistants. Whatever bad pop song or terrible online video you play for the 10,000th time — they don’t care. They’re simply there to help, judgement free.

Amazon, however, has been working on some features behind the scenes to help make Alexa more lifelike. Those involve bringing more emotional resonance to the smart assistant — namely the ability to make it voice sound varying levels of excited and disappointed.

“Alexa emotions” feature three levels of intensity. For the full effect, here’s “I just listened to the Smiths and then Googled what Morrissey has been up to lately” mode:

We all get down around the holidays, Alexa. Are you sure there’s nothing you want to talk about here? Amazon says users are feeling the newly empathetic assistant. “ Early customer feedback indicates that overall satisfaction with the voice experience increased by 30% when Alexa responded with emotions,” it writes in a post.

The feature is available to developers starting today, primarily focused on gaming skills. That means they’ll probably start rolling out to applications in the near future. No word on whether it’s possible to set those flash news briefings to perpetual disappointment.

The company is also rolling out a content-tailored delivery, design to give Alexa a style more akin to a news anchor or radio host.
