So what does all this new technology—the voice commands, the on-screen help, the file sorting—actually mean for you? The promise is one of convenience: a smarter computer that can save you time, simplify complex tasks, and help you find information more naturally.

Based on the new K3 platform, the Seltos is configured with three gasoline engines for world markets. We expect two of the three will come to the U.S., similar to offerings in the outgoing Seltos. Based on initial figures released by Kia, this points to the base powertrain being a 149-hp, 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with…
“Changing a tire is a straightforward task in perfect conditions,” says Ryan Pszczolkowski, Consumer Reports’ tire program manager. “But often the location is dangerous, such as a busy roadway, or there’s a wrinkle, such as when you find out your car doesn’t have a working spare tire. It’s wise to know how to change a…

The most immediately striking difference is that Hyperkin’s product swaps the typical Xbox approach of asymmetric thumbsticks for the PlayStation’s horizontal layout. It also separates the D-pad (it’s one piece inside the pad, but splits its cardinal directions so each appears to be its own button), while the ABXY face buttons are spaced slightly further…
