One relatively common issue with DualShock controllers seems to be the jitters. It's as if your controller has had too many cups of coffee. If you are experiencing this issue, you will find that input from your sticks (usually the left) will start to stutter. When you push the stick forward, instead of seeing smooth movement on the screen, you'll see a movement that starts and stops with no rhyme or reason. Have no fear. Before you toss that dual-stick in the trash, let's take a look at what you can try to remedy your problem.Products used in this guideBlow out the dust-bunnies: 2-Pack Dust-Off Compressed Air ($12 at Amazon)Adieu dust: AmazonBasics Microfiber Cloth 24-pack ($9 at Amazon)Grime be gone: Babyganics Alcohol-Free Sanitizing Wipes ($8 at Amazon)Get crafty: Joystick Wireless Controller Rocker for Playstation 4 PS4 Controller ($5 at Amazon)Small Philips: Dynamite Screwdriver ($5 at Amazon)The whole package: Plusivo Soldering Kit ($14 at Amazon)Its getting hot in he...

Sony really needs to step up its game because its own DualShock controllers are bad.There are a lot of amazing PlayStation 4 controllers on the market, and the DualShock 4 is not one of them — even if some of my colleagues would disagree. Still, I know premium controllers a hard sell to people when they reach upwards of $200. I completely agree. I don't have $200 to spare on a controller all the time, which is why I use Black Friday to upgrade.Black Friday gives me the perfect excuse to spend a bit more money than I usually would have while still getting a great deal. Even if the specific controller isn't discounted, you can generally pick up a free gift card or another offer with your purchase to make it that much more enticing. Anyone who knows me knows how stingy I am. I don't spend money frivolously. However, when it comes to game controllers, I can't settle for anything less than the best. One of the reasons I upgraded to an Xbox One over a PlayStation...

Disney+ is finally available to the public, and with it come a host of apps that allow you to watch Disney's great streaming service on your favorite devices. Lots of people enjoy "binge-watching" shows from time-to-time, but what if you just want to watch one episode and don't want to be bothered by the annoying autoplay that occurs the second an episode ends? Many services, like Netflix and Prime Video, often start the next episode just 3-5 seconds after the credits begin to roll, which can be irritating. Disney, thankfully, offers a way to shut this off in its Disney+ app.How to disable autoplay in your Disney+ appOpen the Disney+ app.Tap your Profile picture in the bottom right corner of the screen.Tap Edit Profiles at the top of the screen.Select the Pencil icon next to your profile (by default, named Profile).Slide the Autoplay option to the off setting.Now you can enjoy those credits in peace after the end of a show instead of being inundated with the next episode o...

Maybe, or maybe not. On the other hand, you could only actually watch one of those services on launch day.Former Disney CEO Michael Eisner today did what one does on Twitter, whether you're a billionaire, a president, a billionaire president — or just one of the peasants. He trolled. And it was a decent troll, at that, taking aim at the quality of content on Apple TV+ thus far on the same day that Disney+ launched..Have seen all the original shows on @AppleTV’s new streaming service. One of them is great, two good, and one forget; and I’m not saying which. Good start for #Apple— Michael Eisner (@Michael_Eisner) November 12, 2019"Have seen all the original shows on @AppleTV's new streaming service," Eisner tweeted. "One of them is great, two good, and one forget; and I'm not saying which. Good start for #Apple"And he's not wrong. That's about how I'd rate things as well. At first blush his tweet could well be taken as a trolling attempt. Apple's definite...

Greatness comes at a cost, but it's worth it.Buying a phone case can be an intimidating task. Take one quick look online, and you'll be met with an endless sea of options to choose from. Some are made of leather, others have funky patterns, and then there are companies that sell their cases in heaps of different colors.That's great for some folks, but if you just want to keep things as simple as can be, a clear case is likely what you're after.

Access with the three-dot button or by swiping up.What you need to knowA redesign of the Google Photos overflow menu is now widely rolling out.It will replace the three-dot overflow menu with a more Material-friendly carousel design and combine it with the swipe-up menu.The update is a server-side change and won't be dependent on having the latest 4.30 version of Google Photos.I'm guessing not many people use the three-dot overflow menu inside of Google Photos. I know I rarely use it myself, and now, Google has decided to redesign the menu and combine it with the menu you'd get from swiping up.Previously, you could access additional options for managing your photos by tapping the three-dot overflow menu in the top-right corner. However, as you can see below, this design looks a little outdated with the rest of Google's Material Theme design language.Google Photos' old overflow menuThe new menu features a much more Material-friendly design and places many of the same ic...

The feature is now available on both iOS and Android but it will initially be limited to users in Brazil. According to Robby Stein, director of product management at Instagram, the company chose to roll out the feature in Brazil first as the country has "a big Instagram population, a deeply musical culture, and a thriving creator community."More importantly, TikTok isn't very big yet in Brazil.

JBL isn't as popular as it once was but it still makes some really great headphones. The JBL Live 650BTNC is our best overall pick for having excellent sound, battery life, and comfort.Best Overall: JBL Live 650 BTNCThe JBL Live 650 BTNC has the best combination of sound, battery life, and comfort. So let's start with the headphones' strong suit: battery life. While there's no fast charging of any sort, the Live 650 BTNC lasts 30 hours on a single charge. You'll be able to get through a long flight and still have some juice left over. Unfortunately they use the older Micro-USB connector for charging, which isn't ideal in a world where most gadgets now use USB-C.Sound quality is exceptional. The bass itself is quite boosted giving a rather warm sound signature overall. However, the rest of the sound signature is neutral and flat. Dynamic range is excellent but the soundstage is rather mediocre, being super narrow and unnatural sounding.The Live 650 BTNC feature active noise ...

At a jam-packed fall product launch this past September, Amazon announced over a dozen new Echo and Alexa products to a gathering of tech reporters and enthusiasts. Leading up to that announcement, perhaps no device was as widely anticipated as the Echo Buds, and initial reviews and impressions were mostly favorable.But what are the Echo Buds, you might ask? The simple answer is that they're Amazon's first real attempt at truly wireless smart earbuds. The more complicated answer is that they're part of the company's larger efforts to make their smart assistant even more ubiquitous in the wider world.From the smart assistant's earliest days, Amazon recognized the need to remove Alexa from her black cylindrical prison and push her out the front door. After the initial Echo speaker launched in late 2014, the next batch of products to come out included the now-defunct Amazon Tap, which was a portable Bluetooth speaker with Alexa built-in. With the Fire Phone DOA in 2014 and the Tap n...

Let's chat with the AC forums.If there's one thing we've seen across all carriers this year, it's been them doing their part to hype up 5G. 5G is the next evolution of 4G LTE wireless data, offering substantially faster download and upload speeds.The potential for 5G is very exciting, but right now, it's still quite limited for the areas and devices that actually support it.Taking a look through the AC forums, here's what some of our members think about the next-gen standard for wireless networks. j_hansen 11-10-2019 12:26 PM “ I bought the 5G model of the Note 10 plus because it should have been already rolled out in my neighbourhood, after being in contact with my carrier/provider a couple of times I ended up kinda accepting that it just wasn't enabled yet here.

Ample protection in a hefty package.I want to preface this entire review by saying that I'm not particularly fond of bulky phone cases. I understand why they exist and get why some people love them so much, but they've never been my cup of tea.Lucky for me, that's precisely the kind of case the Spigen Tough Armor is. It's big, bulky, and sets out to protect the Pixel 4 from just about anything in its path.The Spigen Tough Armor isn't a case I'll personally be buying anytime soon, but if you're shopping around for an ultra-rugged case that does its job without being too costly, you'll be hard-pressed to find a better option.Chunky and ruggedSpigen Tough Armor Bottom line: The Pixel 4 is a good-looking phone, but those good looks quickly diminish if you drop it and turn the Pixel 4 into a shattered mess.

Everybody always says that the key to any good outfit is the right accessories (technically nobody has said that to me, but it does sound like the sort of thing someone somewhere would say), and the same is certainly true for gaming setups.

Big Tech wants a chunk of the healthcare market, and current laws allow it. Even when it's Google.The Wall Street Journal dropped a "bombshell" story about Google partnering with a healthcare network to collect and analyze data. Except, it's not a bombshell because it's the standard operating procedure, and Google has decided to become part of it.The details sound really juicy. Ascension patients across 21 states have had their healthcare records shared with Google, and none of them gave explicit consent. Except that they did even if they don't know that they did. Under HIPAA, laws that regulate how health data can be shared, a provider or care network can share data with partners, including personal details like a name or date of birth, as long as it assists patient care. Almost all of them do, too. Your doctor probably doesn't use paper records or have physical copies of X-Rays in a folder, and even if he or she does, a digital copy is also in a cloud somewhere...
