Edifier this week expanded its headphone lineup with the new W830NB headset. This model combines advanced technology with an affordable price point, offering a compelling option for audio enthusiasts.

The Ambient Sound Mode ensures you remain aware of your surroundings while enjoying a quieter environment.

The headset’s lightweight, ergonomic design features soft earpads and an adjustable headband, providing a comfortable fit for long listening sessions. Every detail has been optimized to enhance the wearing experience.

Price and Availability
The W830NB is available in black, gray, and sand white on Amazon, with an MSRP of $79.99. This headset combines advanced features and superior audio quality at a competitive price, making it a valuable addition to Edifier’s range.
LG Electronics USA has launched a stylish new addition to their product lineup—the LG MyView Smart Monitor Desktop Setup in an eye-catching pink color. Priced at $299.99, this setup is perfect for both work and leisure, featuring a 27-inch MyView smart monitor with webOS, built-in speakers, and a matching keyboard and mouse.

This ensures an immersive experience whether you’re connected to a laptop, gaming console, or streaming from a mobile device. Connectivity is robust with two HDMI ports and two USB ports, while the built-in 5W speakers provide impressive audio quality for movies, shows, music, and video calls.

The three-side virtually frameless monitor with a flat stand complements any desktop, while the matching wireless keyboard and mouse add a cheerful touch. The monitor also supports the LG Magic Remote (sold separately), enabling voice command navigation.
Anker is a mainstay in both the Allen home and AndroidGuy’s office. The company consistently makes products I want to use and add to any tech bag I have. The latest chargers from Anker, the A1636 and A1636, are no exception. The new 30W USB-C chargers are an outstanding companion to any smartphone or tablet. What sets these apart from some of the competition? Dedicated charging options for both input and output. Let’s see how we put them to the test in this review.
Design
The Anker A1636 and A1637 could look like any charging bank when you first remove them from their boxes. Two things immediately set these apart: the LED status display and built-in AC plugs. On top of that, you get an integrated USB-C cable for charging your peripherals. The rest of the units are fairly common rectangular bricks for housing the internal battery packs.
Speaking of the battery packs, the A1636 contains a 5,000mAh battery while the larger A1637 doubles this capacity to 10,000mAh. Each supports 30W fast charging of devices with both the USB-C cable and the USB-C port. This is only for a single connection, and connecting multiple devices will lower this for each.
Daily Usage
When it comes to using these things in the “wild” both the A1636 and the 1637 perform great. The capacity of each can charge an iPhone at least once, while the larger Anker pack can do it at least twice. The larger A1637 can also recharge a 13-inch MacBook to around 50 percent in an hour. That’s fantastic flexibility in something the size of either of these battery packs.
The smaller A1636 won’t get you very far with that MacBook, but you can easily fully recharge your phone and even top off a tablet with it. Its even compact design makes it perfect to travel with or throw in a purse for daily use. I can see this being a true lifesaver for someone with a USB-C device while riding public transit like a subway or bus system.
When you need to recharge the Anker 30W power banks, you have several ways to accomplish this thanks to Anker’s engineering team. You have three different mechanisms to charge back the A1636 and A1637. Both USB-C inputs and outputs are bidirectional, capable of not only charging your portable smart devices, but they also allow input back into each power bank. Finally, you have the integrated AC prongs that fold out of the banks. This leaves you with no reason or situation where recharging these Anker chargers an issue.
Lastly, the LED display on both the Anker A1636 and A1637 adds a bit of functional flare that I like. Anker has been doing this since last year on certain models, and having that glanceable information is much easier to decipher than the older LED dots. Knowing at a granular level of how much juice you have left in the battery pack is the evolution of these types of products that we needed.
Final Thoughts
Anker has built its fortunes off the legacy of charging devices. The new Anker A1636 and A1637 mark the next lineage of this portfolio. The addition of the LED displays and fold-away AC jacks make this the new wave of power banks the company needed. Each allow for 30W of maximum output, quick recharge, and integrated USB-C outputs to make these all-around stars that need to be packed in your next travel gear.
The smaller 3-in-1 charging block is available for $40 and the larger model is full retail of $45. Both are currently on sale for the launch via with $10 off. Hit our links below to snag yours now from Anker directly or Amazon. Each has five color options: Black, blue, pink, purple, and white.
Bluetooth speakers are quite interesting these days. On the one hand, you can easily get a portable speaker with decent sound, even at an affordable price. On the other hand, premium brand speakers make many potential buyers hesitant due to their sky-high prices. But, there are still audio brands out there that follow the “under promise and overdeliver” principle. One of them is Tribit.
Established in 2017, Tribit is a well-known audio brand that is popular for its outdoor speakers. Tribit’s newly launched small and portable XSound Plus 2 Bluetooth speaker costs only $70 but its features impressed me a lot, such as high-quality sound, solid bass, long-lasting battery, IP67 water, and dust resistance.
Tribit sent me the Xsound Plus 2 for review, and I’ve been testing it rigorously for the last two weeks. With the ability to push 30W power, read on to find out if the Tribit XSound Plus 2 has what it takes to make an excellent outdoor speaker.
Pros
Sturdy and portable design
30W of power
Excellent sound quality
Amazing 24-hour battery life
App and physical controls
IP67 water and dust resistance
Affordable
Cons
Default EQ settings lack details
Only supports SBC Bluetooth
Unboxing
Design
The Tribit XSound Plus 2 has a small and compact elliptical shape design, making it very comfortable to hold in hand. The speaker weighs just 580 grams and measures 7.83 inches deep, 2.63 inches wide, and 2.75 inches high. The rubber-coated hard plastic build makes it super sturdy and can easily withstand normal drops. It comes in a sole Black color option and it looks pretty cool.

The XSound Plus 2’s compact design enables it to easily slip into your backpack without taking up extra space. The small, adjustable, thin nylon carrying strap allows you to carry the speaker on the go. Despite its 580-gram weight, the speaker doesn’t feel too heavy; I can swiftly lift it with just my two fingers.
The front speaker grille bears a striking resemblance to a honeycomb structure and is made from recycled plastic materials. A small “TRIBIT” logo is carved in the center of the speaker grille, beside the “XSound Plus 2” branding that stretches across it.
It has small rubber circle-shaped blocks at the base that offer a sturdy foundation even on slippery surfaces. The XSound Plus 2 is IP67-certified, meaning the speaker is waterproof, shockproof, and dustproof, making it perfect for outdoor gatherings, pool parties, and beach events.
Ports and Controls
The XSound Plus 2 doesn’t have an impressive array of ports. It only comes with a USB Type C for charging and a 3.5mm AUX input. The speaker also has a rubberized door over the USB C port and Aux input to protect it from dust and water splashes.
Image – Abhinav Fating | AndroidGuys
When it comes to controls, Tribit offers plenty of physical buttons on the speakers that let you control everything from volume adjustment to audio profile selection, EQ modes, Bluetooth pairing, and play/pause – without your smartphone. Tribit places all buttons conveniently on the top of the XSound Plus 2 speaker. Unlike most Bluetooth speakers, Tribit offers a single-press power button which is very convenient and easy to use rather than press and hold mechanism.
All these physical buttons are very responsive and offer a range of useful functions.
Image – Abhinav Fating | AndroidGuys
Power Button – With just a simple press turns the speaker on or off.
Bluetooth pair – A dedicated Bluetooth button initiated paired mode, allowing seamless connection between your devices
Volume Rocker – Adjust volume levels
Multifunction Button – Single tap to play/pause the music, Double tap to play the next track, and triple-tap to go back.
EQ button – Switch between different sound modes including XBass Mode, Audiobook mode, and Normal mode.
TWS Pairing button – Lets you pair two Tribit XSound Plus 2 speakers for immersive stereo sound.
Tribit App
The XSound Plus 2 speaker also comes with the Tribit companion app (Android, iOS), which gives you additional control and options over the sound. You also get a collection of preset EQ from XBass Off, XBass to Rock, Jazz, Audiobook, and MaxSound Traditional. The app also lets you create custom EQ profiles for a personalized sound experience.
The Tribit app offers dozens of customization options, from a 9-band equalizer to standard go-to presets, a countdown to shutdown, and a voice prompt. You can also play/pause/switch tracks and control volume levels directly from the app.
One of the most interesting features that I liked the most is the countdown to shutdown feature, which automatically powers off the speaker as per your programmed time. It also offers auto-shutdown that automatically shuts down the speaker after five minutes when there is no connection or operation performed.
The app also has a voice prompt feature that offers different types of beeps for various operations, such as power on/off beep, Bluetooth pairing beep, low battery beep, TWS pairing beep, and Maximum volume beep.
Overall, the Tribit app is well-designed, easy to navigate, and offers dozens of sound customizations that fine-tune the speaker’s performance, giving you an immersive sound experience at an affordable price point.
Sound and Performance
The Tribit XSound Plus 2 boasts a 30W neodymium full-range driver with advanced DSP, amplifiers, and an XBass patented algorithm that ensures a high-quality music experience. For my testing of the XSound Plus 2, I used my iQOO 12 smartphone to stream music from YT Music and Spotify, testing the speaker with a range of genres including rock, jazz, pop, classical, rap, R&B, and classic rock. Here’s how the results turned out:
Image – Abhinav Fating | AndroidGuys
The XSound Plus 2 delivers rich, well-balanced sound with superb bass, sweet highs, and decent mids and lows for my go-to tracks. If you love big, boomy bass, the speaker isn’t going to disappoint you here. With the Xtra Bass mode activated, it sounds big, full, and immersive, and most importantly the sound feels very loud in the 80% volume window. The speaker doesn’t distort the overall sound at higher volume levels.
While listening to “Be Free” by Vidya Vox, a favorite track of mine, with a volume over 70%, the speaker performed exceptionally well. The speaker efficiently managed all dialogues, vocals, beats, instruments, and bass, giving me an impressively pleasant sound quality experience.
During the testing, I used Tribit’s companion app for more fine-tuning. I created my custom EQ curve which made a world of difference. When I switched to my custom EQ curve, immediately I felt the difference between a default EQ and a customized one – the audio details, perfectly balanced mids, and soft bass which I was craving for. Listening to my go-to songs with new custom EQ was a real treat.
Amazing Battery life
Tribit XSound Plus 2 boasts a 24-hour playtime on a single charge at 60% volume with XBass off, thanks to its 2400mAh massive battery. Additionally, there’s a USB C port for charging, and it takes approximately three hours to reach full charge.
Image – Abhinav Fating | AndroidGuys
In my 12 days of rigorous testing, I didn’t even charge the speaker once. Naturally, the battery usage will depend on person-to-person. Speaking about my usage, I cranked up the speaker at a 70% volume window for around 35 – 40 minutes daily with different EQ profiles, and there was still ample battery remaining, which easily offers one or two days of battery life.
There is a battery level indicator on the speaker itself, but that doesn’t show the exact battery level. To check the exact battery status, you have to use the app. A small light above the power button showcases the battery life of the speaker; the white light indicates the speaker has above 30% battery, and the red light flashes when the battery life is below 20%.
All in all, the XSound Plus 2 has a crazy battery life which makes it ideal for outdoor parties.
Should you buy the Tribit XSound Plus 2?
You should buy this if…
You want a speaker at an affordable price
You want a speaker that offers excellent sound quality
You are looking for a long-lasting Bluetooth speaker
You shouldn’t buy this if…
You’re looking for a premium sound experience
Verdict
Image – Abhinav Fating | AndroidGuys
Tribit did a fantastic job with its entry-level Tribit XSound Plus 2 Bluetooth speaker. The XSound Plus is a great all-rounder that has 30W neodymium powerful sound drivers, a simple yet refreshing design, a sturdy IP67-certified body, 24-hour long-lasting battery life, and a companion app with dozens of customization options.
This $70 compact speaker amazed me with its outstanding quality and long-lasting battery which is very rare to find at this price point. However, make sure to use the Tribit app to fine-tune the speaker’s performance. I fear without the custom EQ or standard sound profiles the XSound Plus 2 can’t live up to its potential.
Awarded to products with an average rating of 3.75 stars or higher, the AndroidGuys Smart Pick recognizes a balance of quality, performance, and value.
Products with this distinction deserve to be on your short list of purchase candidates.
If you are looking for a small Bluetooth speaker that offers an immersive sound experience, a rugged body, amazing battery life, and plenty of EQ customization, the Tribit XSound Plus 2 is the best choice. Furthermore, at $70, the speaker sounds better than other Bluetooth speakers available at this price point.

Motorola has introduced its latest generation of foldable smartphones in the market – the Razr 2024 and Razr Plus 2024. Motorola’s latest foldable brings significant improvements over the last generation’s foldable. The Chicago-based company Motorola packed an array of impressive features, new colors, larger cover screens, and integration of Moto AI and Google Gemini.
All-new Razr Plus 2024
The Razr Plus 2024 high-end variant in the latest foldable family boasts a stunning 4-inch pOLED cover screen which Motorola claims that it is the biggest cover screen of any clamshell foldable smartphone on the market. When unfolded, you’ll get a beautiful 6.9-inch FHD+ display with a whopping 165Hz refresh rate and massive 3000 nits of peak brightness. Interestingly, both panels have 165Hz refresh rate support, which is impressive. It ships with Corning Gorilla Victus protection.
You can run almost any app on the smartphone’s cover screen from games to social apps flawlessly. Motorola redesigned several cover screen panels such as weather, stocks, and calendars. You can also access the Google’s Gemini directly from the cover screen.
Motorola brings some impressive camera upgrades to the Razr Plus 2024. It features a 50MP main camera and a 50MP telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom support. Under the hood, the Razr Plus 2024 is powered by Qualcomm’s newly announced Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 processor which is a slightly weaker version of the original Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, but you can still expect a flagship tier performance. It packs a 12GB of RAM and 256GB of onboard storage.
The battery on the Razr Plus 2024 is boosted from 3,700mAh to 4,000mAh, and it supports 45W fast wired charging. Motorola is quite known for its eye-catching back panels, and this time too the company brings some new refreshing vegan leather finishes for the Razr Plus 2024. It comes in Midnight Blue, Peach Fuzz, and Hot Pink vegan leather finishes.
Razr 2024: New affordable foldable phone
The Razr 2024 standard variant comes with some notable minor upgrades, making it a solid mid-range foldable phone available in the market. The biggest upgrade comes to its cover screen which is now up from 1.5-inch to straight 3.6-inch. The 3.6-inch pOLED cover screen is capable of running all apps flawlessly with a whopping 120Hz refresh rate, making the scrolling experience extra smoother. The inner 6.9-inch FHD+ pOLED display with 165Hz refresh rate support offers a stunning visual experience.
Motorola also packed Moto AI and Google’s Gemini in the Razr 2024. The foldable features a MediaTek Dimensity 7300X chipset coupled with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. It boasts a massive 4,200mAh battery with 30W wired and 15W wireless fast charging support.
The Razr 2024 has a 50MP primary camera paired with a 13MP ultrawide lens and a 32MP shooter on the front for capturing selfies and video chats. All in all, the Motorola Razr 2024 is a refreshed version of last year’s Razr Plus 2023 with minor specs differences.
Both smartphones run on the latest Andorid 14 OS out of the box. Motorola promised three major OS updates (up to Android 17) and four years of security patches for both devices, which is great. But, it is still behind Samsung’s 4+5 years update policy.
Motorola also offers great color options for the standard Razr 2024 variant. It comes in Spritz Orange, Beach Sand, and Koala Grey vegan leather finishes.
Motorola Razr Plus 2024 and Razr 2024: Pricing and Availability
Motorola bringing both models to the US. The Razr Plus 2024 and Razr 2024 foldable phones will be available to pre-order from July 10th, with open sales beginning from July 24.
The Razr Plus 2024 starts at $999, while the Razr 2024 is available at $699.
Lenovo has unveiled its latest budget range Andorid tablet – the Lenovo Tab Plus. Lenovo squeezed not one or two, but a whopping eight speakers into its new tablet, which makes it a powerful Bluetooth speaker. Lenovo’s new tablet aims to deliver an immersive sound experience with eight JBL-tuned speakers and a HiFi matrix structure tuned by Dolby Atmos.
There are four matrix tweeters and four force-balanced woofers, delivering 26W of stereo sound with deeper, more pronounced bass and clearer treble. You can also use the Lenovo Tab Plus speakers with other devices like smartphones or game consoles via Bluetooth.
Lenovo also integrated a built-in kickstand into the tablet, that elevates up to 175 degrees, offering great viewing flexibility while binge-watching shows.
Under the hood, Lenovo Tab Plus is powered by a MediaTek Helio G99 Octa-core processor paired with 8GB of RAM and up to 256GB of storage which is further expandable via microSD card. The tablet comes with Android 14 out of the box. Lenovo promises two major upgrades (up to Android 16) and four years of security patches for the Tab Plus.
For cameras, it features an 8MP front and rear camera which I think is decent for video calls. It’s obvious to see compromises in other areas since the tablet is designed as a media consumption device.
