It’s not often a new mouse gets much attention at Stuff unless it’s either covered in RGB, costs an unholy amount, or is actually in our hands. Logitech’s new leaked ultra-portable mouse is none of those things, and yet, here it is. It trades all that in for the promise of massively increased portability and, we imagine, a reasonable price. Better than a trackpad? While Logitech has yet to officially confirm the peripheral, it’s difficult to deny the photographic evidence currently paraded on WinFuture. The outlet shared what seems to be the first images of the as-yet unnamed mouse, which adopts…

Sleeping Snapdragon? We don’t know that there’s a Samsung Galaxy S26 FE in the works, just like we don’t know the sun will rise tomorrow morning. Whatever we think about the matter, it’ll happen all the same. We’re nearly as certain that a new ‘Fan Edition’ for Samsung’s Galaxy S26 is on the way, and now a fresh leak shows us just how right we were. This isn’t as extensive a leak as we’re used to from the South Korean giant, but it does give us a rough idea of how powerful it’ll be. Perhaps the biggest question mark surrounding the device…

We (and we’re guessing many of you) are still traumatised after the official fuel price adjustments. And yet, the Central Energy Fund (CEF) marches on, delivering another batch of predictions — this time for June. And, you know what? It seems that the country’s diesel drivers might be cut a bit of slack. Petrol drivers… not so much. Good news for diesel drivers this June That seems fair, considering what the country’s diesel drivers have gone through these last couple of months. Now, it won’t put everything right — the expected R2.48/l decrease is a drop in the bucket compared to the…

If you haven’t kept up with Amazon’s slate of free games (free if you have a Prime Video subscription, we mean), then perhaps May’s catalogue can change that. If you’ve got a Prime Video subscription and haven’t put it to good use yet, listen up. Each sub grants its owner access to Amazon Luna, Amazon’s basic tier of its cloud gaming service. While not technically available in SA, locals can still claim a couple of free PC games every month. Leave our backlog outta this! Starting with Mafia II: Definitive Edition in May. That’s the headline title that’ll keep you busy ’til you…

It was a busy day for Huawei yesterday, which not only gave its event attendees in Thailand a look at its upcoming kids’ watches, but also a look at a bunch of other products, too. Up first is the Nova 15 Max, followed by the Watch Fit 5 Series, with the MatePad Pro Max serving as a nice little chaser. Only those first two are likely to come to South Africa, however, but there’s no harm in drooling over the MatePad’s gloriously thin body from afar. Huawei’s super Nova? Not to be mistaken with the Huawei Nova 15 Ultra, the…

We all knew this day was coming. Some have been waiting for this day for months, while others have only recently cottoned on to the effects of rising RAM and storage prices. It wasn’t all that long ago that PlayStation fired the first price hike in the gaming world, and now Nintendo is following suit. Nintendo does the thinkable… Today, Nintendo announced a global price hike for the Switch 2, which launched in June last year at R12,500 (about $450). Ninty cites “changes in market conditions” for the hike, which go into effect on 25 May in Japan — hitting…

There was next to no chance that Samsung wouldn’t release a follow-up to last year’s Galaxy A26, but now the company has seemingly confirmed the device by accident. The Galaxy A27 is yet to be announced in an official capacity, or perhaps it was always meant to be unceremoniously unveiled in a random Samsung Brazil article stating which of its devices are compatible with the Samsung Wallet app. Somehow, we don’t think so. Calling up the A27-Team It was GalaxyClub (via SamMobile) that first noticed the device’s inclusion. Samsung, apparently, also took notice, because it’s no longer mentioned when visiting the Brazilian…

Google really wants you to use artificial intelligence. Preferably its own, judging by the countless AI ‘tools’ that have cropped up across the search company’s suite of apps in recent years. Google, it seems, will automatically download a 4GB file including the details necessary to run Gemini Nano on your device. Without asking. Chrome being sneaky? Say it ain’t so! It was Alexander Hanff who spotted the dodgy tactic by Google and discussed it on his website, That Privacy Guy. Not only is it a bit of a legal nightmare, with Hanff citing legal articles left and right, but he…

Fuel prices are on the rise in South Africa, with no indication that they’ll reverse course anytime soon. As of yesterday, diesel prices surged past R31/l, creating a sense of panic amongst motorists. To help combat the rise, FNB has announced a temporary boost to its eBucks fuel rewards scheme, running ’til the end of June. More bang for your eBucks The Fuel Boost campaign is designed to ease the rising costs of fuel, while simultaneously making everyone who isn’t an FNB customer that much more jealous. In addition to customers’ usual fuel spend rewards, FNB will guarantee that they will…

We weren’t all that thrilled when Oppo first unveiled the A6 in South Africa — mainly owing to its too-high, R9,000 price — but now the company has corrected course somewhat with the new Oppo A6k. It shares much with its R9,000 sibling, but trades in a few key aspects to help it stick the landing with a R7,000 price. Weird flex, but Oppo A6k You’ll be happy to hear (perhaps you won’t) that Oppo’s kept the same 6.75in HD+, 120Hz display, despite the price cut. It certainly felt out of place on the R9,000 A6. Its placement here, however,…
