LG’s brilliant 65-inch OLED has only been cheaper once before. | Image: LG We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: now is a great time to splurge on a high-end OLED TV. And if you’re thinking about picking up one — perhaps in preparation for a certain Nintendo Switch game that launched today — LG’s 65-inch C2 OLED is on sale at Woot right now for $1,394.99, which is about $200 less than the TV’s typical sale price. Despite being last year’s model, the C2 strikes a great balance between performance and price. The newer C3 model offers more processing power and new picture modes, but otherwise, it’s a relatively minor update. Like the C3, the 2022 model…

Macworld ‘Tis the season for developer conferences–Apple’s WWDC (the one we care about the most) is in June, Microsoft has theirs later this month, and Google’s I/O conference kicked off this week. Developer conference keynotes are fun because you get to see what the companies are working on and what new products and features are in the future. And sometimes we get a bunch of cool new stuff that non-developers care about too. That was the case with the Google I/O keynote, which was held Wednesday and brought numerous new products and features—several of which we hope Apple paid close attention to. Here are five Google I/O announcements that we wish had come from Apple instead. Magic Editor in Google…

Macworld Google wrapped up another I/O keynote and we heard a lot of what we expected to: there are several new Pixel devices, a dig at Apple for not supporting RCS (can’t say we disagree there), and a massive focus on AI. It wasn’t just AI taking the stage at Google’s event, but generative AI. It’s an annoying name but an important distinction. Generative AI is that which creates new stuff, rather than simply analyzing and adjusting what already exists. DALL·E and Stable Diffusion create new artwork from a text prompt, they don’t just tweak the exposure and sharpen up an image you supply. Chatbots such as ChatGPT and Bard answer questions and perform tasks by making new text. There…

Macworld Unlike the iPhone, Apple ships a USB-C power adapter with all its MacBooks: Air and Pro. Unless your laptop stays in the same place all of the time, having a spare or a specific travel MacBook charger is a useful addition. You can buy a second Apple charger or check out more versatile, cheaper and smaller MacBook chargers to suit your needs and budget. It’s important to note that there are risks with buying a cheap charger and we don’t recommend you choose on price alone. That bargain MacBook charger might just fry your laptop or get dangerously hot. However, there are some great premium chargers from trusted brands that sell for less than Apple pricey chargers. What to…

Macworld The monitor might be the most important part of your Mac’s setup–after all, you can’t use any computer without one.
