Football claims another Microsoft Surface tablet
Microsoft Surface tablets have been taking a beating at football events these past two weekends. During the Buffalo Bills game against the Miami Dolphins this afternoon, Bills offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey took his frustration out on his tablet as the Dolphins secured a win during the final moments of the game.
Dorsey’s reaction may have been warranted, although he probably could’ve chosen another outlet for his anger (like a stress ball perhaps?). The Bills had a chance to run one more play to win the game, but the team ultimately ran out of time, losing to the Dolphins 19-21. When cameras turned to the booth where he was watching the game, Dorsey ripped off his headset and tossed his hat before he picked up the tablet and started…

Tom Brady just chucked another Microsoft Surface tablet
Tom Brady might as well have been practicing his touchdown spike when he whipped a Microsoft Surface tablet into the ground during the Tampa Bay Buccaneers game against the Saints on Sunday night. The quarterback was visibly frustrated following an incomplete pass, tossed his helmet onto the field, and stormed back to the sidelines where he chucked the tablet.
The Buccs were losing when Brady threw the tablet, but they ended up coming back and defeating the Saints 20-10. This isn’t Brady’s first documented case of tablet abuse — he threw the thing so hard against the bench after losing a Saints game last year that it actually bounced.
Microsoft Surface chief Panos Panay responded to the incident on his Instagram story this time around,…
Google Pixel foldable and a ‘Pro’ tablet hinted at in Android 13 code
Google has just rolled out the first Android 13 quarterly platform release beta, and developers have already uncovered code that hints at a pair of upcoming devices: the rumored Pixel foldable and a new “Pro” tablet (via Android Police).
In a thread on Twitter, developer Kuba Wojciechowski shares screencaps of code that refers to the unfolded and folded states of a device called “Felix.” It mentions the cameras that the device uses as well, which may include a 64-megapixel (MP) Sony IMX787 primary sensor and a 10.8MP Samsung S5K3J1 telephoto lens on the back of the phone. The device could also house an 8MP Sony IMX355 sensor (the same one used by the Pixel 6A) on the inside and another Samsung S5K3J1 around the front.

PC and tablet market facing negative growth until 2024
Here are the best tablet deals right now
Tablets exist in a space between phones and laptops that is becoming increasingly muddled. As phones become more powerful and gain larger displays, laptops continue to get lighter. Tablet manufacturers haven’t been resting on their laurels, though. Many of the more recent tablets we’ve seen are looking to bridge the gap in terms of performance and, in select cases, handle some tasks more efficiently than both phones and laptops.
The tablet spectrum is varied, too. Inexpensive models like the Amazon Fire HD 10 make for excellent media streaming devices, while those in Microsoft’s versatile Surface lineup can easily serve as ad-hoc laptops when paired with an optional folio-style keyboard. Then there’s the ubiquitous iPad, a slate that has…

The magic of the 2-in-1: You don’t need to choose between a laptop or a tablet. They combine the best of both worlds.
A particularly versatile option is the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 3i laptop, which is on sale for only $289 at Walmart. You’ll save $90 or about 24% on a best-selling laptop that includes a detachable keyboard.
The best cheap laptops you can buy, because upgrading your device shouldn’t drain your bank account
This model of the Lenovo IdeaPad Duet 3i features a 1.1Ghz Intel Pentium Silver N5030 processor that helps you multitask on different programs at the same time. It also includes 8GB of RAM for additional performance plus 128GB of internal eMMC storage. All this helps to run on Windows 11, making this a more powerful laptop option if you need more than a Chromebook.
Instead of a 360-degree hinged keyboard like other 2-in-1 laptops, it uses a fully detachable keyboard. When detached, the keyboard works remotely with the tablet portion while it rests on its folio kickstand. And if you don’t need the keyboard, then just enjoy it as a tablet with a 10.3-inch FHD touchscreen display.
