Walmart has announced that it is revamping its website, introducing a completely new design beginning in May. Aside from a visual overhaul, the new site will focus on personalization and specialty shopping experiences.

In the comparison below, you can get a glimpse of what the new look will be like. It’s cleaner, with more modern fonts, and it features what Walmart calls “relatable photography,” otherwise known as humans doing human things. It’s definitely a step up from its current potato website, which feels not unlike an interactive Sunday circular.

Along with the refreshed design, the majority of the new Walmart homepage will be personalized to whoever is browsing it. This will include best-selling…

Do you really miss your Walkman headphones? Or maybe you just want to pull off the perfect Guardians of the Galaxy cosplay? Either way, JLab’s Rewind headphones might be the solution for you, styled after the old-school, bright orange on-ear headphones that the original Walkman made famous. They look more or less like the original Sony headphones, but with an added dose of modern day Bluetooth technology that lets them cut the cord and a microphone for answering calls.

The problem is that while the Rewinds might look great, unfortunately the sound and build quality isn’t able to keep up — JLab sells the Rewinds for $20, and you’re absolutely getting what you pay for here.

ZTE was probably thinking “two is always better than one” when designing its new concept phone, and deciding to add two notches. The ZTE Iceberg, as it’s referred to, has a notch on the top and bottom, according to renders shared by WinFuture, leaving the rest as an edge-to-edge display. The bottom notch contains the phone’s front-facing speaker, while the top notch contains a selfie camera, a sensor for ambient light, and an earpiece for phone calls.

ZTE doesn’t stop the experiment there. Weirdly enough, the Iceberg also has raised edges of glass on each corner that give the phone a more angular look than the typical smartphone. It makes the phone look a little like it belongs in a museum as a futuristic artifact or like it’s encased…

British audio company Ruark Audio has just introduced its first connected wireless speaker called the MRx. Compatible with the company’s R2 Mk3 “all in one” music system and its R7 Mk3 radiogram, the MRx features Ruark’s trademark modern design, and also ushers in the company’s new “Link” app, which it alluded to last summer.

The MRx comes with capabilities and specs seen in other Ruark products, and builds on them. It’s got a stereo pair of 75mm full-range neodymium drivers that are newly redesigned and powered by a high-fidelity dual channel amplifier. On the back is a four-way selector switch that allows for the MRx to be used as a solo device or part of a stereo pair.

Regarding connectivity, it has an integrated Bluetooth receiver…

Unsplash, the apparent stock image database of choice for Silicon Valley companies, is launching an iOS app for creators and hobbyists to browse through catalogs of high quality photos to use in a creative project or any other personal use. Today’s launch is Unsplash’s third foray into apps — it launched a macOS app last year solely designed for rotating wallpapers on a Mac computer, and a similar app for the Apple TV in 2016.

The new mobile app is optimized to be best used with an iPad — users can drag photos they like to the lower left corner to download the image, or use multi-screen mode to drop the picture into a project file they’re working on. Unsplash fills its database with stock images from a community of photographers willing…
