I loved reading as a kid, and I still read now, though less frequently, because I tend to lose myself way too easily in books and end up neglecting work and other obligations to finish them. Still, for the past decade, I’ve had a Kindle of some sort on my bedside...

There are oh, so many strange things about the new Galaxy S25 Edge. Yes, it’s thin, and yes, it’s made from a durable mix of titanium and top-tier Gorilla Glass, but once you get past that, I am simply confused. It has a small battery that’s not silicon-carbon, slow...
