There are a lot of great printer brands on the market, but HP is probably one of the most well-known, and it has a truly wide variety of printers from which you can pick. For example, the HP DeskJet 2855e is a great all-in-one printer, which is great for those who don’t need to print often and want something that is a bit more budget-oriented. Even though it’s already rather cheap, HP has discounted it further from it’s original $85 price down to just $55, making this one of the cheapest printers you’re going to find on the market.
While the HP DeskJet 2855e may not be a high-capacity printer, it’s still great for prints that need to be done here and there in a normal household, especially if you’re a slightly larger family. The recommended monthly print volume is between 50 and 100, which is a solid amount for the average household and probably more than most need anyway. Interestingly, it can print both black and colored prints, with the ability to manage 7.5 prints per minute (ppm) for black and 5.5 ppm for colors, which is pretty fast, actually.
It also has a scanner, which you might end up using more than the printer, and it even has a reasonably solid resolution for a budget product. It can do up to 1200 x 1200 dpi scan resolution, although the copy resolution is a lot lower at 300 x 300 dpi, which isn’t ideal, but for home use, it should be more than adequate. It’s also worth mentioning that this deal includes three months of Instant Ink, which is HP’s ink replacement program and requires an HP+ subscription.
All in all, while the HP DeskJet 2855e isn’t going to win any awards, it’s an excellent budget and entry-level printer for those who don’t have a lot of need for printing and scanning. That’s why the deal from HP bringing it down to just $55 makes it worth grabbing since it’s truly not that expensive. That said, if you’d still like something a bit more heavy-duty, be sure to check out some of these other great printer deals as well.
The absolutely absurd idea of putting a touchscreen display on a mouse isn't exactly new. Turtle Beach already did it with its Command Series MC7, which features a 2.25-inch control screen. But apparently, even that wasn't ridiculous enough for Arctic Fox Technologies. Its new Super Mouse looks like someone took the chunky old Atari ST mouse, slapped a touchscreen and scroll wheel on it, and called it an upgrade.
The result is a rather unusual-looking mouse that is now on Kickstarter, starting at $199. And as ridiculous as it looks, some of its features are genuinely intriguing.
Apple is less than a day away from launching its highly anticipated OLED MacBook Pro with a touch-sensitive screen. But it appears that the upgrade is going to cost a pretty penny. According to a report by Bloomberg, Apple is reportedly eyeing a starting price of $2,899 for the 14-inch MacBook Pro, while the 16-inch version could start at $3,399 in the US.
"At $2,899, the 14-inch model would mark the highest starting price for a new MacBook Pro model, surpassing the $2,799 Apple charged for a 17-inch version introduced in 2006," says the report. The report claims that Apple is targeting a minimum price hike of $400 for its upcoming redesigned 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro models.
I've spent a good amount of time digging into the spec sheet of the new M6 MacBook Pro (14-inch), and for all intents and purposes, this is a classic Apple "chip and connectivity" refresh. It's not a full redesign. The chassis, Liquid Retina XDR panel, speakers, ports, and battery, all of them carry over unchanged.
However, the M6 brings more cores, stronger on-device AI, higher memory bandwidth on the larger configs, and modern wireless. Here’s the practical rundown of what actually improved, and whether those gains are worth your money.
