10/26/2018, 5:40:11 PM
The 2019 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross relies on 1990s nostalgia, spiffy styling, and a new turbocharged engine to add some spice to a bland crossover recipe.

10/26/2018, 5:04:19 PM

Faster phones, easier access to on-demand video, simpler networking -- on the surface, 5G sounds like a dream. So why is it more of a nightmare? ✔ Small cells are bricks or maybe toolbox-sized pieces of gear that can fit outside your house, on buses, high on telephone poles, wherever ✔ Because winter is coming – and my network damn well better be prepared for the download demands ✔ The views expressed here are solely those of the author and do not reflect the beliefs of Digital Trends

10/26/2018, 5:26:27 PM

Blackmagic BMPCC 4K review: A pint-sized video powerhouse

10/26/2018, 7:08:59 PM
Blackmagic's Pocket Cinema Camera 4K is a talented, powerful video camera in a compact package. ✔ As it happened, I was able to test it at the same time as the all-new and formidable Nikon Z7, Canon EOS R and Fujifilm X-T3 mirrorless cameras ✔ That will leave wedding and other videographers without a backup ✔ It's a lot of fun to use thanks to the excellent handling and beautiful 5-inch display ✔ Using any mirrorless camera after that is bound to be disappointing

10/26/2018, 4:35:37 PM
Commentary: I grew up learning that I would be targeted when I shop because of implicit bias.
