The Best Art TVs
After you're done bingeing your favorite movies, these art televisions are designed to liven up your wall. I have watched so many times I've lost count. For years, the Andrew Wyeth painting took a prominent place in my living room. Art televisions--the category of TV pioneered by Samsung's Frame and now rapidly expanding with models from many of the major TV producers --combine my passion for movies and shows with an even greater interest in art and photography. When it comes to their performance as televisions, even the best art TVs don't have quite the same punchy colors and speedy refresh rates found on similarly priced standard televisions. However, when the movie is finished, art TVs look a lot better in a room, displaying art and photos on a matte screen with a pristine clarity in a space otherwise wasted by a black box. Art televisions are typically just a little more expensive than a normal 4K TV.

Samsung averted fears of a strike after the deal was made to pay special bonuses to employees at the world's largest memory chipmaker. Employees at Samsung Electronics's memory chip division are to receive bonuses averaging about ยฃ310,000 each through a landmark profit-sharing agreement, as the AI boom drives up chipmakers' profits. Fears of a strike at Samsung were averted on Wednesday after two unions for the world's largest memory chipmaker said that 74% of the 62,616 workers who cast their votes had backed the deal. The agreement, mediated by South Korea's government, means Samsung will set aside 10.5% of operating profits at its semiconductor division to pay special bonuses to its chip workers.

Your laptop came with hidden superpowers. These 7 are actually worth using
PCWorld explores seven overlooked laptop utility features that offer genuine value, from Asus's AI noise-canceling and MyAsus Target Mode to Samsung's connected ecosystem controls. These hidden capabilities matter for productivity and comfort, including eyestrain reduction, touchpad customization, and automatic system maintenance across major brands. Standout features include Lenovo Vantage's self-healing diagnostics and Surface app's customizable right-click regions, though some implementations like HP's Enhanced Lighting have practical limitations. One of the unsung productivity heroes of your laptop is the humble utility app. It's the piece of software your laptop manufacturer installs to manage and customize your device.
A Samsung strike could make your RAM even more expensive
Samsung's unionized workers may strike for 18 days starting May 21st over bonus pay disputes, potentially costing the company $700 million daily in lost memory production. PCWorld reports this strike could worsen the existing chip shortage and drive RAM prices even higher than current levels, which are already 3-4 times more expensive than last year. The disruption threatens global electronics supply chains despite Samsung's $13.4 billion profit in 2025. As if the AI data center boom wasn't causing enough problems for PC hardware, a looming strike in Samsung's home territory of South Korea could grind the memory giant's already-strained production to a halt. According to the latest reporting from Reuters, a long-simmering dispute between Samsung and its unionized labor force has boiled over, with no compromise in sight even after days of government-mediated talks.
Samsung's Bespoke update is big step towards a useful AI for your fridge
Samsung's Bespoke update is big step towards a useful AI for your fridge Samsung's Bespoke update is big step towards a useful AI for your fridge The idea of installing a software update on your fridge already feels kind of weird, let alone one centered around improving its AI capabilities. But that's exactly what's happening to Samsung's line of Bespoke refrigerators this week, and to my surprise this patch is making major strides at providing truly useful machine learning in a modern day icebox. As a quick recap, Samsung has offered AI-powered features like automatic food recognition and meal planning on its Bespoke refrigerators for a couple years already. However, as I found out after reviewing its flagship model late last year, the company's AI capabilities are still very much a work in progress. Previously, the fridge could recognize around 60 different kinds of fresh foods (like fruits and veggies) alongside another 50 or so packaged goods like yogurt or popcorn.
