    Secretlab’s new folding armrest gives musicians and gamers more room to play.

    For $189, you can upgrade one of Secretlab’s Titan Evo or Classic Series gaming chairs with the company’s new EasyFold Foldaway Armrest. As the name implies (multiple times), the upgraded armrests introduce a mechanism allowing them to be rotated backwards 90 degrees so they don’t get in the way while you’re playing an instrument or gaming.

    Someone got Android running on the Remarkable Paper Pro.

    Remarkable’s devices are excellent digital notebooks but don’t offer as much functionality as tablets that are often much cheaper. To rectify that, Chalid Raqami managed to get Android 13 running on the pricey Remarkable Paper Pro. Having access to Android’s full app store almost makes the sluggish experience seem worth the extra effort.

    The new Fairphone 6 Plus gets a perfect repairability score.

    Given it’s a minor hardware refresh of last year’s Fairphone 6 it comes as no surprise that the new Fairphone 6 Plus (the company’s first smartphone it will sell directly in the US) was awarded a perfect 10/10 score in iFixit’s teardown test. Disassembly of everything from camera modules to the screen was straightforward using just basic tools.

    Ugreen’s new desktop charger can deliver 240W to power-hungry laptops.

    You can already get multi-port desktop USB-C chargers with a status screen from companies like Satechi, Baseus, and Anker. What sets Ugreen’s new $199.99 Nexode Pro 300W apart is that in addition to six USB-C charging ports and a USB-A port, it includes a barrel-style port that can deliver 240W to a beefy laptop.
