Fitbit Charge 4 launches as a pricey, minor upgrade from the Charge 3
Quarantined? What a time to buy a new fitness tracker

Jules Wang

You may not be thinking about Fitbit in a time of pandemic and lockdown, but the fact is that you do have the opportunity to jog around the block or hit the park — socially distanced from others, of course. In a way, the debut of the Fitbit Charge 4 comes at a perfect time for the company looking to gain some spotlight in the fitness tracker market as it continues to await the closure of Google's acquisition.

How to sell your old smartphone for the most money possible

Corbin Davenport

New phones can be very expensive, so selling your older devices is a great way to recoup some of the costs. Unless you have an absolutely ancient device, there's a good chance you can get at least a few bucks for your trouble. Best of all, giving your old phone a second life with someone else (or having it e-recycled) is a lot better than having it slowly rot in a landfill for decades.

Working from home? Get the most out of your old laptop by turning it into a Chromebook
Upcycle that tired computer and save some cash, too

Manuel Vonau

The coronavirus pandemic has most of us staying at home, working or studying remotely. Depending on the age of your laptop and what exactly you need to get done, you might run into the limits of your computer. If you're fortunate enough to be able to get all of your work done inside a browser, you might benefit from turning your aging Windows or macOS machine into a much faster Chromebook. Google officially supports only a handful of devices that are custom-built to fit Chrome OS, but thanks to Neverware's CloudReady fork of Chromium OS, almost any x86 hardware can become a Chromebook.

WhatsApp could soon let you use the same number on multiple phones
Still in the development stage

Rita El Khoury

WhatsApp has managed to reach a worldwide audience and break through 2 billion monthly users despite a severe handicap: The app doesn't support multiple devices for the same account. One phone number equals one phone or one tablet, that's always been the equation. And while there are workarounds to allow two different numbers on the same phone (for dual-SIM devices or Business users), there hasn't been any trick to make the same number available on two phones or tablets simultaneously. The great news is that WhatsApp is already working on this.

Rovio soft-launches Angry Birds Legends in select regions, a card-based RPG devoid of fun
Is Rovio out of ideas? Let's take a look

Matthew Sholtz

For the last few years, Rovio has really been scraping the bottom of the barrel with its Angry Birds franchise. It would seem the dev has been slapping the property onto just about every casual gaming genre out there, from bubble poppers to match-3 titles, and then right back to bubble poppers, Rovio is clearly out of ideas. This is probably why the company is currently testing Angry Birds Legends in the UK, Sweden, and Finland as we speak. It's a card-based gacha RPG that stars Angry Birds characters, and since it's currently in testing in select regions, I've gone ahead and sideloaded the APK (v2.0.1) in order to take a closer look.
