HP isn’t unveiling anything groundbreaking in these two new models, but both are equipped with wireless connectivity, allowing you to control them via a smartphone, tablet, or PC sans wires; scan and send to a mobile device; print to the machines from anywhere as long as they’re connected to the Internet; and get news and coupons sent to the printers via the HP Printables feature.

The printers have a compact design ideal for home use. Both machines offer duplex printing, great for drafts and saving money and resources. Print speed is rated at 9 pages per minute (ppm) in black and 5 ppm in color. Users have the option of using high-capacity ink cartridges, but when your ink runs out you can use HP’s Instant Ink subscription service for easy replenishment.

The Dell Inspiron 15 laptop dropped below $500 with this deal

If you need a new laptop but your maximum budget is $500, don't worry because you can still get a decent machine with the help of the laptop deals that we've found. Here's one that's very interesting -- the Dell Inspiron 15 at $250 off, which brings its price down to just $450 from $700 originally. It's not going to stay this affordable for long though, as stocks are likely already running low. In our experience, nothing stick around at Dell for long. If you want to get this laptop for a lower price than usual, you're going to have to be quick in completing your transaction for it.

Why you should buy the Dell Inspiron 15 laptop
You shouldn't expect the Dell Inspiron 15 to challenge the performance of the best laptops, considering its affordable price, but you can count on it to serve as a dependable companion for your daily tasks. With its 12th-generation Intel Core i7 processor and Intel Iris Xe Graphics, plus 16GB of RAM that our guide on how much RAM do you need says is on the level of top-tier machines, activities such as managing spreadsheets, doing online research, and building presentations won't be a problem for the Windows 11 Home-powered Dell Inspiron 15. When it's time for rest and recreation, the laptop can also serve as a solid entertainment device -- it's not going to play the best PC games at their highest settings, but it's great for catching up on streaming shows.

Apple MacBook Air 13 (M4) vs. Microsoft Surface Pro 11: two diminutive laptops fight for the top

It might seem strange to compare a clamshell laptop with a detachable tablet 2-in-1, but the fact is, if you're look for a small yet powerful, highly portable PC, you have two great options. The Apple MacBook Air 13 (M4) is the best 13-inch laptop you can buy (maybe the best ever), and the Microsoft Surface Pro 11 is the best 2-in-1.

Both are very small, both are fast and get great battery life, and so both can serve anyone well who wants a real PC that feels more like a mobile device. But which one is the right choice for you?

RTX 5090 prices drop from outrageous to just ridiculous

Recent data indicates that prices for Nvidia's RTX 5090 graphics card are gradually stabilizing, though they remain significantly above the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). A Reddit user compiled eBay sales data, revealing that average selling prices have decreased from around $6,000 at launch to approximately $4,000 in recent weeks.

The RTX 5090, part of Nvidia's latest Blackwell series, has faced severe supply shortages since its release, leading to inflated prices on secondary markets. Initial listings on platforms like eBay saw prices reaching up to $10,000, far exceeding the MSRP. This scarcity has been reminiscent of previous GPU shortages, where high demand and limited supply led to significant price hikes.
