By now, excitement over last week's PS5 launch has subsided. But we're already getting reports from users having varying issues with their brand new consoles. The fault seemingly is attributed to random software crashing that's not linked to one particular game or even hardware. Making it even more of a challenge trying to pinpoint the primary issue.

Apple finally unveiled and gave everyone a detailed look at the M1 processor, making its debut in the new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and Mac Mini. Without wasting any more text in this intro, here what you need to know.

This week Sony officially launches their next-generation gaming console, the PS5, which has been the topic of conversation for the past couple of months amidst all the rumors and image leaks. The PS5 undoubtedly the most powerful and fastest console Sony has ever produced, and more than ever, it will draw strong comparisons to the PC.

Western Digital has an exciting piece of hardware coming down the pipe, unveiling the new WD_Black G2 controller; the SN850 posting speeds of up to 7000 MB/s read and 5300MB/s write, with a storage capacity exceeding up to 1TB.

There's a particular lyric to a song play on your mind, but you don't remember the name of the album. Spotify has you covered. The company just introduced a new feature that will allow users to search for a song's particular title based on the lyrics.

The update addresses several issues, but the one glitch that had everyone gripe via social media is the default app setting bugs. When you set third-party apps such as email and web browsers as default, when you reboot your device, it reverts to Apple default apps.

It seems when Apple releases its new mobile OS, users, as usual, share their displeasure's on a wide scale via social media, regarding software bugs. The latest glitch?

It's been a couple of weeks since Intel debuted their next flagship processor, Tiger Lake. Yet we already are seeing laptop prototypes show up online.

The laptop features the new Xe graphics chip, probably the most pinnacle hardware on the computer. What's so impressive is how iGPU outperforms the seven cores on the Ryzen 7 4700, making it all too remarkable.

There is no doubt the PS5 is an enormous gaming console, the biggest of its kind ever produced. Dwarfing Microsoft's Xbox Series consoles.

Interestingly enough, it appears users can vertically stand the console on both sides.
