In the old days, laptops used to have lots of connectors and ports dotted along their sides. But recently, makers have slimmed down their devices even more and left no room for such things as an HDMI output or Ethernet socket. Indeed, more and more laptops (including Apple MacBooks and Dell’s XPS line) and tablets (such as Apple’s iPad Pro) use the latest USB-C connection standard—or its faster Thunderbolt 3 or 4 siblings—because it’s small and versatile: the port can be used for a variety of things including…

You don’t always need a big flashy desktop rig covered in RGB LEDs – sometimes it’s more impressive to cram decent specs into a tiny, unassuming package. The Pix Nii is one of the smallest and lightest mini PCs we’ve seen, which along with its dual 4K HDMI ports could make it a great media center.The Pix Nii is almost comically tiny, measuring just 6.9 x 6.6 x 4.8 cm (2.7 x 2.6 x 1.9 in) and tipping the scales at under 160 g (5.6 oz). That makes it less than half the size of other mini PCs like the Minisforum H31G.But…

Sonos' new Ray soundbar aims to fill this gap with an…
