This $25 accessory is a must-have for anyone with a Fire TV Stick
Alexa on Amazon’s Echo smart speakers is absolutely fantastic. Honestly, I don’t think I would ever want to live without it at this point. But Alexa on Amazon’s Fire TV remote is horrible. Alexa just can’t handle dictation well for some reason, and it makes entering things like searches, user names, and passwords a real pain in the butt. If you want to do away with all that nonsense, do what I did and get the iPazzPort Mini Backlit Keyboard with Universal Remote Buttons. It mounts on the back of your Fire TV remote with a nifty little case, and it will seriously be a game-changer for you.

This fake iPhone 11 Max hands-on video is still our best look yet at Apple’s next-gen iPhone
Samsung just confirmed an earlier leak that said its exciting new Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10+ will be officially announced on August 7th. They’re going to feature completely overhauled designs with triple-lens cameras and hole-punch, all-screen displays. These new Notes are expected to be two of Samsung’s best smartphones ever, and yet most of the tech world is still looking beyond August into September, when Apple is set to unveil the iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Max, and iPhone 11R, or whatever the company’s next-generation iPhone series ends up being called. These new iPhones will look just like last year’s iPhone models from the front, but flip them over and you’ll find the most exciting addition to the iPhone lineup in 2019: Brand new triple-lens cameras on the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max, and an upgraded dual-lens camera on the iPhone 11 R.
We still don’t know about all of the marquees features Apple has in store for the iPhone 11 series in September, but we do know that the camera will play a huge role. Apple’s iPhone was once the market leader when it comes to mobile cameras, but the company has fallen way behind Huawei, Google, and even Samsung in recent years. Word on the street is that the iPhone 11’s new triple-lens rear camera will put a stop to Apple’s slide, instantly propelling it to the head of the pack once again. In fact, we’ve even heard that Apple is planning an advanced, AI-assisted night mode that’s even more impressive than Google’s Night Sight on its Pixel phones. We can’t wait to hear all the details straight from the horse’s mouth, but we actually don’t have to wait another minute to see what Apple’s new iPhone 11 Max will be like in real life thanks to a new hands-on video.

Samsung just told us when the Galaxy Note 10 launches and teased its big redesign
It was only a few days ago that a report said Samsung’s Galaxy Note 10 launch preparations were underway, with the company expected to hold its second annual Unpacked event in New York, on August 7th. That rumor made plenty of sense considering Samsung’s track record with the Note series, as some of the latest models were also unveiled during the same month. Guess what happened next? Samsung officially announced that its Note 10 event will indeed take place on August 7th, just as previously rumored, and that it’ll indeed take place in New York. In the process, Samsung also seemingly confirmed the phone’s major redesign.

Next major Windows 10 update’s only cool feature will be… how fast it installs?
You may have already installed Microsoft’s latest major update on your Windows device, but don’t get your hopes up for any stellar features for the next major upgrade. They call them feature releases, and the Windows 10 May 2019 Update that was recently released is the newest one. Coming up is the fall feature update, codenamed 19H2, which is already available to beta testers. However, Microsoft isn’t ready to share any specifics of the 19H2’s main features. Judging from what Microsoft revealed so far, the best and only new thing about Windows 10 19H2 will be the speed of the installation?

Poop parasite outbreaks linked to water parks and pools, just in time for summer
Summer is finally here, and that means lots and lots of hot, sunny days and plenty of trips to the local pool or nearby water park. If taking a dip in the public pool is your favorite way too cool down, the Centers for Disease Control have a warning that might make your stomach turn, and make you second-guess your favorite summer pastime in the process.
A new report on the nature of Cryptosporidium outbreaks in the United States from 2009 through 2017 shows that pools and water parks are the two most common ways to end up with a nasty parasitic infection. The study says a full 35 percent of cryptosporidiosis outbreaks are linked to exposure at water parks and public pools, and the CDC has a very specific guideline that everyone should follow.

Any eBooks you bought from Microsoft will soon disappear forever
With physical goods increasingly getting replaced by a digital equivalent — from books to movies and much more — it begs the question: How does this change our common understanding of ownership? But most people probably don’t give a lot of thought to their iTunes song library, or the pile of eBooks they’ve bought from Amazon and the like. Maybe they assume those things will always be there. They paid for them, after all.

Xbox free Games with Gold for July 2019
This month’s selection of free Xbox One and Xbox 360 titles for Xbox Live Gold members is about as mixed a bag as they come. The headliner of July is Inside, which is one of the most disturbing, fascinating, and engrossing games of the last five years. It’s a bit gruesome, but absolutely worth having in your library.
The other game of note is Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, which first came out on the PlayStation in 1997, but is still one of the best games of its kind ever made. If you’re not quite ready to shell out the cash for spiritual successor Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night, you can grab the game that inspired it for free right now.

Elon Musk believes electric planes will become more practical in about 5 years
For as easy as it is to poke fun at Elon Musk’s online shenanigans, there’s no denying that he was able to revolutionize the auto industry in a relatively short period of time. Thanks to the initial success of the Model S, Tesla was able to prove that electric cars didn’t have to be clunky eyesores. What’s more, the popularity of the Model S — along with the Model Y and the Model 3 — definitively proved that demand for EVs was far greater than anyone could have anticipated even a few years ago.
Tesla’s obsession with all things electric, of course, extends far beyond traditional four-door sedans, an assertion bolstered by Tesla’s acquisition of SolarCity and the company’s plans to roll out an electric-powered semi-truck and pickup truck in the near future.
