Steam went down on Tuesday. Steamstat.us indicated earlier that the Steam Store, Steam Community and Web API were all down. But it's been all systems go for the better part of the past hour. Engadget staffers' experience matches that. Earlier, when trying to access the Steam Store on Steam Deck and in the mobile app, only the UI loaded as an empty wrapper. Now everything appears to be loading normally.... Read more ›

It’s been quite the week for Xbox news. A lot of people are still coming to terms with Microsoft's veritable gut-punch of announcement that the price of a Game Pass Ultimate subscription is about to soar by 50 percent.

That’s a 50 percent price increase from the previous $20 per month, and there’s no annual or... Read more ›

The story of the Rabbit R1 is a cautionary tale. The AI gadget stole CES 2024, thanks in large part to its cutesy design and Rabbit's promise that it could do nearly everything a smartphone could without being a distraction.

If you prefer open-ear AirPods but still have an older model, this deal could be worth noting. Amazon's October Prime Day has the AirPods 4 on sale for $90, or 30 percent off their usual price.
