Geek, we\u2019re ready to say goodbye to 2020 and never look back. We\u2019re even more excited to think about 2021 and all of the wonderful gadgets and technological advances it undoubtedly has in store for us. In fact, we got the team together this week to discuss the upcoming tech we\u2019re hoping to see next year.<\/p>\n<p>Some of us have high hopes for specific products and brands and would be thrilled to see a new, more powerful version of a product we already know and love. Others are more focused on more <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> aspects of <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/technology\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"Technology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">technology<\/a> and are hoping to see what else could be done with a particular idea or gadget.<\/p>\n<p>Either way, we\u2019re excited to see what 2021 has in store for us. Let\u2019s dig in and see the upcoming tech that\u2019s on everyone\u2019s minds.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cam_Summerson_Editor_in_Chief_Nothing_and_Everything\"><\/span>Cam Summerson, Editor in Chief: Nothing (and Everything)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65372\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65372 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/da2a046310f8530c956a44df73a63082\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/x7659c7dd.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.qhpP_DOYdp.jpg\" alt=\"A green Pixel 5 with Jabra Elite 85t beside it and Nest Hub in the background\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-credittext=\"Cameron Summerson\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Smartphones? Earbuds? Smart Home Tech? Yes. <span class=\"imagecredit\">Cameron Summerson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>When we started talking about writing this piece, I struggled to come up with something that I\u2019m excited about for 2021. Over a week later, and I\u2019m still sort of at a loss.<\/p>\n<p>But that\u2019s not because there\u2019s nothing to be excited about\u2014it\u2019s that I think we\u2019re at a really good place with technology right now. Smart home tech has gotten more accessible and more powerful. Smartphones are better than ever. In just one short year, I\u2019ve seen the true wireless earbud market completely transform\u2014there are truly great options out there at every price point. Next gen console gaming is now. M1 Macs are already available. Despite being a mostly not great year in most ways, 2020 has been a good year for tech.<\/p>\n<p>So that puts me in a precarious position. Sure, I\u2019m excited about new tech for 2021\u2014there\u2019s always something to be excited about, after all\u2014but I can\u2019t think of anything in particular. I joined my colleague Michael in a call for a Chromebook Duet 2 because that was my favorite product of 2020. I\u2019m looking forward to seeing what Jabra does with the Elite line because the 85t are the best wireless earbuds on the market right now. But these are both products that I\u2019d be completely fine with if they didn\u2019t have successors in 2021 (which is unlikely, especially for Jabra).<\/p>\n<p>So what am I excited for? Nothing in particular, and everything in general.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Josh_Hendrickson_News_Lead_Surface_Duo_2_Plus_Plugs_and_Pinball\"><\/span>Josh Hendrickson, News Lead: Surface Duo 2 (Plus Plugs and Pinball)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65376\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65376 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/23323cac622b744a9591c2e7a03e679b\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/x5e59ae70.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.Gd9QinIe9H.jpg\" alt=\"Surface Duo on top of a laptop on a table\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-credittext=\"Josh Hendrickson\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Josh Hendrickson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">News<\/a> Lead at Review Geek, I\u2019m always scouring for the next big tech thing to write up. And Cam\u2019s right; in some ways, there\u2019s not a lot coming just this minute. We\u2019ll see more at CES, but for right now, my list is small. There are a few certainties.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m looking forward to the Wyze Outdoor Plug because it\u2019s an incredibly affordable outdoor smart plug from a well-known company. I can\u2019t wait for Arcade1Up\u2019s pinball machine either, which will come someday at some point.<\/p>\n<p>But one thing tops all the rest, and I know absolutely nothing about it\u2014the Surface Duo 2. I don\u2019t even know if that\u2019s the name. For a hot minute, I owned the $1,300 Surface Duo. I spent my cold hard cash because I believed in the vision. And yeah, I knew there would be compromises, but I accepted them. When I finally got the Duo in my hand and turned it on, it made a terrible first impression. But it won me over. Here\u2019s the thing: it\u2019s not a great phone. It\u2019s a fantastic desktop in my pocket. I got more work done thanks to its dual screens, and scouring the news on the go was easier than ever.<\/p>\n<p>Then the USB-C port broke. Or rather, the plastic housing around it sn<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>ed off. It wasn\u2019t pretty, and it wasn\u2019t acceptable for a $1,300 phone. It just seems like Microsoft tried to go too thin. And that desire for a slim profile led to too many compromises: no NFC, no wireless charging, no water resistance, a terrible camera. But the straw that broke the camel\u2019s back was the literal plastic case breaking into pieces from just plugging my phone in to charge. So I returned my Surface Duo.<\/p>\n<p>Despite those problems, I miss it all the time. I still believe in Microsoft\u2019s vision for a pocketable multitasking powerhouse. I don\u2019t know that Microsoft will come up with a second Surface Duo this year. But that\u2019s how the company usually works. And I\u2019m already saving up to give it a second go-\u2019round when I can.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Michael_Crider_Reviews_Editor_A_2nd-Gen_Lenovo_Chromebook_Duet\"><\/span>Michael Crider, Reviews Editor: A 2nd-Gen Lenovo Chromebook Duet<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65377\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65377 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/fdd676e0d86ad5ee13516e779ec9504b\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/xa1c06749.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.vFZb4eEsfr.jpg\" alt=\"Lenovo IdeaPad Duet on wooden deck with leaves\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-credittext=\"Cameron Summerson\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/46959\/the-64-gb-lenovo-ideapad-duet-is-only-250-at-walmart\/\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Cameron Summerson<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In 2021, I\u2019d like to see a second-generation Lenovo Chromebook Duet. The Duet from last year is great, a near-perfect little tablet computer. But there are a few tweaks I\u2019d made to change it into an even better one, albeit with a slightly higher budget. First of all: extend it to a 4:3 or 3:2 aspect ratio, more like the Surface Go, to make it more comfortable as a tablet when using it without a keyboard.<\/p>\n<p>And speaking of the keyboard, make that a little better, too\u2014the floppy board on the original is its low point. Something closer to the magnetic keyboard seen on the ThinkPad Fold or the old Pixel C tablet would be ideal. I\u2019d add a fingerprint unlock (since Chrome OS doesn\u2019t have face scanning yet), and maybe bump up the screen size just a tad.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, I\u2019d fix whatever problem kept the monitor output on the USB-C port locked to 1440\u00d7900\u2014any modern machine needs at least 1080p support. And I\u2019d want to fit under a $400 price tag, giving Lenovo enough extra budget to bump up those materials and internal components.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Andrew_Heinzman_Staff_Writer_Inexpensive_Wireless_Headphones_and_Earbuds\"><\/span>Andrew Heinzman, Staff Writer: Inexpensive Wireless Headphones and Earbuds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65378\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65378 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/e64c2e5fd049ae771582d34bf490bb09\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/x534b1e6e.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.kY7gH6oXYG.jpg\" alt=\"TaoTronics TT-VH085\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/42575\/taotronics-tt-bh085-anc-headphones-are-a-steal-but-they-still-sound-like-50\/\" data-credittext=\"Andrew Heinzman\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\">Andrew Heinzman<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>While there aren\u2019t any specific products that I want to see in 2021, I am excited about the future of cheap wireless headphones and earbuds. Some of the headphones I\u2019ve tested in 2020, like the TaoTronics TT-BH085 headphones and the <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/AUKEY-Wireless-Cancelling-Bluetooth-Waterproof\/dp\/B088NWFD63\/?tag=reviewgeek-20\">Aukey EP-N5<\/a> earbuds (which I\u2019m writing a review for now) manage pack decent audio quality, effective ANC, and fantastic battery life all for under $100. It\u2019s nice to know that the average person can get a \u201cpremium\u201d pair of headphones without breaking the bank, and it makes Christmas shopping a little easier too.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I don\u2019t expect manufacturers to improve the audio quality of their cheap wireless headphones and earbuds. We\u2019ll see improvements in ANC and battery life, which are the quality-of-life features that regular people care about, but people who want to get the best sound for their dollar are better off buying bare-bones wired headphones.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Suzanne_Humphries_Freelance_Writer_The_Chipset_Wars\"><\/span>Suzanne Humphries, Freelance Writer: The Chipset Wars<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65381\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65381 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/5a6e4f98e90091a2effb43c8f5a3f5c5\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/x43348cde.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.n79cOLe9-S.jpg\" alt=\"Apple M1 chip and Google Pixel 4a smartphone atop a gold leaf textured background\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/gold-663009955\" data-credittext=\"Suzanne Humphries, detchana wangkheeree\/Shutterstock.com\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/gold-663009955\">Suzanne Humphries, detchana wangkheeree\/Shutterstock.com<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As far as I can tell, the most exciting thing in 2021 will be the chipset wars that are coming. Apple has already shown off the impressive potential of first-party chipsets with their M1 MacBooks. And judging by the construction of said MacBooks, there\u2019s only more hidden potential sure to come, with the possibility of better cooling, RAM, and optimized software.<\/p>\n<p>AMD has also been consistently putting Intel to shame recently, and 2021 looks to be a year we see competition within the gaming laptop market explode, powered by AMDs Zen 3 CPUs and the NVIDIA 3000 <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/watch-movies-tv-seriess\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"8\" title=\"Watch Movies &amp; TV Series\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">series<\/a> GPUs. The Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 showed what was possible with these AMD CPUs in the driver\u2019s seat, and building on that foundation promises to bring about a new level of portable powerhouse laptops.<\/p>\n<p>On the mobile side, Samsung is expected to show off a new Exynos system on a chip (SoC) in January. This could move the Galaxy line away from Qualcomm chips and potentially pave the way for more powerful foldable devices that Samsung seems to be heavily investing in as the future of mobile.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Google is rumored to be working on a first party chip to power their Pixel line, and I for one am crossing my fingers that the rumors are true. I\u2019ve only owned Pixel smartphones since they were first released, so it\u2019s exciting to think that 2021 will likely be the year we see Google truly start to compete as a flagship phone maker.<\/p>\n<p>Lastly, Intel and Qualcomm have been comfortably dominant as the go-to chip makers for years, and even if only half of the rumors and promises are true, it still means that the giants have serious competition and that only spells good fortune for the consumer. Cheers to the year of new chips!<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Eric_Schoon_Freelance_Writer_Upgrading_to_the_GMMK_Pro\"><\/span>Eric Schoon, Freelance Writer: Upgrading to the GMMK Pro<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65385\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65385 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/247dcbb33f1316d5f6fc3a7ee401521f\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/xa6cbe11f.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.0jTyrP9oH6.jpg\" alt=\"Glorious GMMK Pro 75% layout keyboard\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamingrace.com\/products\/glorious-gmmk-pro-75-barebone-black-reservation\" data-credittext=\"Glorious\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamingrace.com\/products\/glorious-gmmk-pro-75-barebone-black-reservation\">Glorious<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The GMMK Pro is a keyboard that\u2019s first of its kind, as it brings many of the premium features the mechanical keyboard community has been used to for years now to a larger market. You see, most high-end mechanical keyboards are sold through group buys\u2014a crowdfunding system that works similarly to something like Kickstarter. The stock is always limited, and with how much the community is growing, that\u2019s only becoming a larger problem. But the GMMK Pro is going to be kept in stock continuously, so picking it up once it\u2019s fully released won\u2019t be an issue.<\/p>\n<p>And on top of that, the GMMK Pro is just about my ideal keyboard; the 75% layout is compact yet functional, it\u2019s made from quality materials, the software looks good, and, most importantly to me, it\u2019s hotswappable, so no soldering required when it comes to replacing switches. I\u2019ve been looking for a keyboard with that specific combination of features since I got into mechanical keyboards, and the GMMK Pro seems to be the solution I\u2019ve been looking for. I\u2019m definitely planning on upgrading to it next year.<\/p>\n<p>Not only does the GMMK Pro look like a great keyboard itself, but its mere existence is a positive sign for the market of mechanical keyboards. As the hobby becomes more and more popular, market-available options like the GMMK Pro are a necessity. And while the Pro is the first of its kind, I have a hard time believing it will be the last. I think by the end of the year, we will have seen more companies offer similar keyboards, which can only be a good thing for consumers.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Peter_Cao_Freelance_Writer_Apple_Silicon_and_High-End_Wireless_Headphones\"><\/span>Peter Cao, Freelance Writer: Apple Silicon and High-End Wireless Headphones<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<figure id=\"attachment_65386\" style=\"width: 1600px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-65386 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.reviewgeek.com\/thumbcache\/0\/0\/966a40cf777c6ea58b1025e314b5dab9\/p\/uploads\/2020\/12\/x61d47065.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.-CRXfpNhk3.jpg\" alt=\"16-inch Apple MacBook Pro and Drop + THX Panda wireless headphones against white brick background\" width=\"1600\" height=\"900\" data-crediturl=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/high-resolution-white-brick-room-115560229\" data-credittext=\"Suzanne Humphries, Peshkova\/Shutterstock.com\" onload=\"pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\" onerror=\"this.onerror=null;pagespeed.lazyLoadImages.loadIfVisibleAndMaybeBeacon(this);\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><span class=\"imagecredit\"><a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/high-resolution-white-brick-room-115560229\">Suzanne Humphries, Peshkova\/Shutterstock.com<\/a><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>As a longtime Mac user, the biggest thing I\u2019m looking forward to in 2021 is more Mac computers switching to Apple Silicon. We\u2019ve already seen what the company can do with its M1 chips on the MacBook Air, Mac Mini, and the 13-inch MacBook Pro. All three products have insane performance without sipping a ton of battery. Personally, I just want a near-silent 16-inch MacBook Pro with insane battery life and similar performance to the M1 chip.<\/p>\n<p>Opposite from my colleague Andrew, I\u2019m excited to see more high-end wireless headphones and earbuds come to market. Headphones such as the Drop + THX Panda prove that you can provide great high-end wireless headphones without compromising on sound quality.<\/p>\n<p>On the other end of the spectrum, I\u2019m hoping that active noise-canceling (ANC) headphones and earbuds continue to push technological boundaries. Earbuds such as the Jabra Elite 85t and headphones such as the just-announced AirPods Max show hope that you can have excellent ANC with truly great sound.<\/p>\n<p>That said, I\u2019m hoping that great headphones and earbuds continue to come down in price. As an audiophile, I want more people to experience better sound without having to break the bank.<\/p>\n<h2 role=\"heading\" aria-level=\"2\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Final_Word%E2%80%A6\"><\/span>A Final Word\u2026<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Well there you have it. From premium headphones and chipsets to pinball machines and foldable mobile devices, we\u2019ve all got tons of gadgets and goodies to look forward to in 2021.
