It's Tuesday, January 14, 2020. Hey, good morning! You look fabulous.  One of the best parts of CES is spending some time with the rest of the Engadget team, instead of just chatting in Slack. That means when we have a disagreement, we can go over it in person, like when Devindra is wrong about 8K TVs. He thinks the extra-large high-res screens that dominated CES 2020 are a waste of time and, to be fair, he has a point: There’s almost no native content, no way to deliver that content in most places and the quality difference is arguable. Of course, he’s also completely wrong, and I explained a bit about why in our combined editorial. 8K TVs are cool, and if I could afford to wallpaper my house with them I’d be doing that right now. There’s no reason to diss new technology simply because it’s too expensive at the moment. I can appreciate that companies are pushing the bleeding edge, even as I stick to more mainstream waters. 4K TVs are a great buy now, and 8K is nice to drool over until it’s realistic -- you can do both. -- Richard (View in browser.) And more storage than your Chromebook. Max Weinbach (who shared the leaked photos of the S20+ 5G) claims on Twitter that the Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G will have extreme specs, including as much as 16GB of RAM in its top spec, a 5,000 mAh battery, a 48MP secondary camera and up to 512GB of built-in storage before you add a microSD card. | | A 'Power Up Band' wearable will track visitors' progress in collecting coins and fighting bosses  Universal Studios Japan is on track to open its Super Nintendo World park this summer, ahead of the Olympic Games. Now it's teasing the new area with a mostly CG music video and song made by Galantis with Charlie XCX. It’s not heavy on the facts or features, but there is a dance sequence and some dreamy segments showing how players go from hanging out at home with their Switch to enjoying a real-life experience. A companion website hints at something approximating Mario Kart and the ability to roam the park on Yoshi’s back, but we’d love to hear more about those. Naturally, it’s 2020, so there’s a companion app, too. Separate to the trailer, in a briefing in Tokyo, Universal Studios Japan showed the Power Up Band, which will track visitors’ progress in its "life-size, living video game," as well as a mention that future parks will come to Hollywood, Orlando and Singapore. | | Sponsored Content by Stack Commerce | |
