The Solution to the RAM Crisis is… DDR4???With DDR5 prices spiking to infinity and beyond, we re-examined if it's worth buying in 2026 or if you're better off saving some money and buying into a dead platform. Intel's 12700K and AMD's 5800XT are both very reasonably priced, but just how good or bad is the price to performance ratio? - Nvidia Wouldn’t Send Me Their Best GPU - RTX Pro 6000 Holy $H*TE20

HP has Subscription Laptops NowWhatever happened to just OWNING things? Why do I have to pay every month for software that consistently gets WORSE with each new version? It was bad enough when HP started subscription printing services, now they want me to subscribe to my gaming laptop, too? Still, we can’t write them off until we take a closer look, so let’s do it. Are these Laptop Subscription offers worth it, or just another grab for your hard-earned-cash? - I Let my Kids Pick ANY Phone for ChristmasE23
I Let my Kids Pick ANY Phone for ChristmasLinus has had his fair share at picking and testing all types of phones, BUT if we let his KIDS pick their next phone, which one will they pick? iPhone, Google, or Samsung?

Google Drive with samples below. - This $90,000 TV was IRRESISTABLEE26
This $90,000 TV was IRRESISTABLEWe've been excited about MicroLED for YEARS, but the price has always been prohibitively expensive.

I said YES to every Bloatware Pop-upYour RAM is cheating on you. You might think it’s working hard, but the truth is it’s probably going behind your back with bloatware you didn’t even install.

Apple’s Co-Founder Left to Make THIS?? CORE Master Universal RemoteWhen a technical wizard like Steve Wozniak has a problem to solve, you know the solution is going to be interesting.

The thing is... no one else really had that same problem... yet. - He 3D Printed a case instead of buying one? - AMD $5000 Ultimate Tech UpgradeE44

And more importantly, what will become of the Roborock Saros 20 we deployed into the rat-infested crawl space? - Do All LTT Writers Think The SameE46
Do All LTT Writers Think The SameThere are a lot of people that work behind the scenes on the Linus Tech Tips videos, but does that mean all the writers think the same? Do they all agree with each other on controversial topics in the tech world? Today we put that to the test asking questions about software, hardware, and AI to see if Elijah, Adam, Nicholas and David all agree or have opinions that are different from each other. - Intel is BACK.

Intel is BACK. THIS IS NOT A DRILL. - Core Ultra 270K Plus & 250K Plus CPU ReviewIntel's Arrow Lake Refresh is actually refreshing. At $299 and $199, the 270K Plus and 250K Plus both look to be flagship killers, taking the fight to AMD's Ryzen 9000 chips. Zen 5 domination might not be for long. - It’s Time to Leave Discord… Here is What to Pick InsteadE52
It’s Time to Leave Discord… Here is What to Pick InsteadEveryone is hating on Discord right now... But where do you go?

The Worst is Almost OverIs the AI bubble getting ready to burst? We’re seeing major spending cuts at OpenAI, Mass Layoffs at Oracle, and ludicrous valuations for companies that don’t have the revenues to back those values up, and DDR5 prices are dropping around the world. It’s starting to look like the RAM crisis won’t last forever. - We Chose the WRONG Monitors 5 Years AgoE61
We Chose the WRONG Monitors 5 Years AgoWhen we thought HDR was going to be a bigger part of our channel, we installed a bunch of miniLED PA32UCX displays in our editing den.

My $20,000 Loss is Your GainRemember 6 months ago when Linus bought an environmental chamber on auction for dirt cheap... yeah turns out it is not cheap and would cost $250,000 if he wanted to keep it.

Why didn't they send one to us? - The Year of Windows HumiliationE73
The Year of Windows HumiliationHow is it that Windows has managed to stay on top even though Linux and MacOS have gotten so much better?

The Steam Controller is HereValve's new Steam Controller is here after more than a decade! We dive into the upgraded trackpads, TMR joysticks, awesome battery life, and that innovative wireless charging puck. Is this the perfect living room PC controller, or does the $100 price tag push it out of contention against the competition like the Sony Dualsense, Xbox Controller or a Gamesir or Flydigi?

Buy One of These InsteadE77
Amazon is Disabling Old Kindles... Buy One of These InsteadAmazon will end support for pre-2013 Kindle eReaders on May 20, 2026.

So what Kindle alternatives are out there, and how can you still get some use out of your unsupported Kindle? - The WILDEST Keyboard I've EVER SeenE78
The WILDEST Keyboard I've EVER SeenThe Flux Keyboard displays it all. Literally. It’s a keyboard yet transparent, and underneath IS a display featuring nearly any glyph or function you can imagine. Pretty cool, eh? I’d like to think so. However, it does type a bit differently than your typical mechanical switches... Thanks u/FranciumGoesBoom for lending it to us to check out! - I bought a TV with NO 'Smart' Features...E79
I bought a TV with NO 'Smart' Features...Samsung, LG, TCL, HiSense and pretty much everyone else tout the benefits of their "smart" operating systems included with their TVs. But honestly, I don't need my TV to be yet another computer to serve ads to me and steal my data. I already got a bunch of those! But escaping from the grips of TizenOS, WebOS or even Android TV is difficult, especially when precious few companies sell modern displays without the OS cruft. Well, Sceptre has a 75" TV that is simple as can be. But is their TV with no Smarts just plain dumb? - My Wife Wanted a DDR Pad...E81
My Wife Wanted a DDR Pad...For Years, Yvonne has been asking Linus for a DDR Pad one that wont be flimsy and terrible or ones that cost an arm and a leg.

The Internet was WRONG: Trump Phone is "Shipping"When we placed our $100 deposit on the Trump T1 Phone, it was mostly for the lols.

But now.... It’s actually shipping? We teamed up with Dominic Preston of the Verge to get to the bottom of this roller coaster of a story. - This Prototype Laptop Crushes Everything I’ve Ever SeenE91
This Prototype Laptop Crushes Everything I’ve Ever SeenWe got an exclusive first look at the 2026 ASUS Strix SCAR 18. An absolute beast of a Laptop featuring top-tier hardware. Being a pre-production unit however, we had our hands tied and could only look at the display… Which also happens to be the best display a Laptop has ever seen. - I Let Open Source AI Drive Me to WorkE92
I Let Open Source AI Drive Me to WorkWe were pretty impressed with the Comma 3x when we first tested it last year, so we decided to stick Linus in a Toyota Corolla long-term so he could test out the Comma AI’s active driver assistance over several months.

Apple was LATE on AI… It was Worth the Wait - WWDC '26WWDC '26 was PACKED with announcements ranging from Airpods EQ to Parental controls to Design changes. But the biggest announcement is of course surrounding AI and Apple's integration with Siri. Whether it's reminding you to buy concert tickets, or helping you plan a holiday, if Apple can deliver on the promises they are making it seems like the rest of the industry could be playing catch up so some time. - I Don't Think I Can Go Back To Windows...E104
I Don't Think I Can Go Back To Windows...The Linux Challenge PT 4 is OVER! After more than 1 month using some flavor of Linux Linus, Luke and Elijah all sit down to discuss what they liked and didn't like about using it.
