Now's a great time to upgrade your TV, speaker system, or computer. Shopping from these links supports our journalism and saves you money. We've even found discounted Bluetooth speakers, tablets, and more. 1/6 wired.trib.al/KNBXfAp
We're huge fans of the TCL 6-Series for $800 ($200 off), which ranks as our best TV for most people for multiple generations. At this price, it's an excellent buy for a 65-inch screen. 📸: TCL 2/6 wired.trib.al/ELGPpNe
There is a newer model available, which explains why these KEF LSX Speakers for $1,000 ($250 off) speakers are discounted right now. They'll fill your room with high-fidelity tunes, and you can connect to them via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or Ethernet.📸: KEF 3/6 wired.trib.al/3DxxqfI

Let’s get one thing straight: If you have an iPhone, the Apple Watch is the best wearable for your buck. But that opens up another BIG question for any savvy consumer—which version should you buy? wired.trib.al/MQGGiiW 1/6
If in doubt, buy an SE. It’s Apple's entry-level option and while it doesn't have the flashiest standout features, it is compatible with WatchOS 9 which is where many of the latest and most exciting fitness features show up. wired.trib.al/MQGGiiW 📸: Apple 2/6 Image
If we’re being honest, the latest Series 8 (8/10, WIRED Recommends) is the best watch for most Apple users, especially people who menstruate or want to track their fertility. wired.trib.al/MQGGiiW 📸: Apple 3/6 Image

We've been testing several iPhone 14 cases and accessories—for the entire lineup, from the iPhone 14 to the iPhone 14 Pro Max—and these are our favorites. Shopping from the following links helps support our journalism while saving you time and money. 1/7 wired.trib.al/UAE77hP
Whether you go with the official leather or silicone cases from Apple, they won't disappoint. The only issues? The $49 silicone case attracts dirt and lint.📸: Apple 2/7 wired.trib.al/RXvqL6y
OtterBox's Symmetry+ series has slowly been winning me over these past few years. At $50, it's protective, but not cumbersome. The raised edges around the display are higher than other basic cases. 📸: Otterbox 3/7 wired.trib.al/JPPYhM0

If you’ve ever wondered why some people were severely sick with Covid while others got off with a mild case of the sniffles or never caught it all, you aren’t the only one. wired.trib.al/GFAj7JG 1/7
In the early days of the pandemic, a tight-knit community of scientists from around the world set up an international consortium, called the COVID Human Genetic Effort to search for a genetic explanation for this. 2/7
There’s a theory that these people might have preexisting immunity, and it’s supported by historical examples. There are genetic mutations that confer natural immunity to HIV, norovirus, and a parasite that causes recurring malaria. Why would Covid be any different? 3/7

@adriennemso didn't doubt her ability to be a neighborhood hero. So she grabbed her electric kid-hauler and took on the Disaster Relief Trials, a 30-mile bike race wrapped in an apocalyptic post-earthquake scenario. wired.trib.al/wO187lZ 📸: Gritchelle Fallesgon 1/11
The DRT are designed to simulate the conditions after a major disaster.ecause our writer is based in Portland, that disaster is likely the Big One: the magnitude 9.0-or-so earthquake that has a one-in-three chance of leveling the Pacific Northwest in the next half-century. 2/11
Background: Oregon has around 12,000 first responders, however, Portland alone is home to 650,000 residents. Translation: the first person to hear your cries won’t be a professionally trained EMT, but your neighbor. 3/11
