The Lenovo Flex 11 is one tough SOB.
The Lenovo Flex 11 Chromebook is a consumer version of Lenovo’s very solid Chromebooks For Education products. It’s built tough — rated to take a 2.4-foot drop and has a water resistant keyboard tray to keep spills out, but still comes in at a very reasonable $279.99. Finding a “rugged” Chromebook that’s not EDU branded and uber-expensive isn’t a common thing, so we were instantly interested.
After a bit of time with it, the strengths outweigh the drawbacks and we like the Flex 11. It’s not the most powerful Chromebook we’ve tried but it wasn’t made to be. It’s a decent, solid performer designed to take more abuse than most other products in its class.
We think the durability factor and low price make the Flex 11 a great Chromebook for kids or someone who tends not to treat his or her stuff all that respectfully. And while the body is pretty darn durable, the keyboard leaves a lot to be desired. Read on for our full take.

Honor’s flagship phone is landing in India on July 6.
The beastly Honor 8 Pro will be making its debut in India on July 6. The phone will be sold exclusively on Amazon India, and while there’s no information on how much it’ll cost, it is likely to be north of ₹40,000 if the UK pricing is any indication.
The Honor 8 Pro features a 5.7-inch QHD screen, and is powered by the Huawei Kirin 960 — which has four 2.4GHz Cortex A73 cores and four 1.8GHz Cortex A53 cores. It is available with either 4GB or 6GB of RAM, and has 64GB of storage along with a microSD slot. There are two 12MP cameras at the back, with a monochrome sensor aiding the primary RGB shooter, and a fingerprint sensor sits below the camera array. Other details include an 8MP front shooter, Wi-Fi ac, Bluetooth 4.2, USB-C, and a 4000mAh battery.

These tips will make sure Alexa isn’t purchasing something when you don’t want it to.
Alexa can make your life easier in dozens of different ways, including ordering items off of Amazon for you. However, just because you’re asking about something doesn’t mean you actually want to purchase it. Since voice ordering is turned on by default when you set up your Amazon Echo, you may want to know how to add security when making purchases, or turn off voice purchasing entirely.
You can do it all right from the settings on your phone, and we’ve got the details for you!

The Amazon Echo is at its lowest price all year.
The Amazon Echo is on sale for $129.99, a discount of $50 from its retail price of $179.99. That’s the lowest price we’ve seen on the full-sized Echo all year, and brings it to parity — at least from a price standpoint — with the Google Home.
The deal is valid on both the black and white color options of the Echo, and is applicable until 11:59 p.m. ET. In addition to giving you access to Alexa’s considerable skill-set, the Echo is a pretty good speaker in its own right. If you’ve been eyeing the internet-connected speaker, now’s the time to bite.

Quickly, Potterheads, to Facebook!
Wanna feel old? The first Harry Potter book was released 20 years ago today. Don’t let that bum you out, though. In celebration of this anniversary, Facebook has turned a few of your favorite words into spells you and your friends can activate on both the app and the website.
Here’s how it works!
Casting a Harry Potter spell on Facebook
Unlike many other Facebook promotions, there’s no page you have to go and like to access these powers. All you need to do is create a post or comment with one of these words:
Harry Potter
Slytherin
Gryffindor
Hufflepuff
Ravenclaw
When you send the post, a little wand will appear and magic will erupt across your screen. After the post is live, you and any of your friends can click or tap on those words — which are now colored special for the celebration — and that same wand animation will appear again!
What are you waiting for? Go have some fun!

VR porn isn’t a thing of the future. It’s here now, and easier to find and access then you may have thought.
When it comes to watching videos on VR, one of the first questions many people asked was whether or not you’d be able to watch porn or other adult content. From apps that let you speak with camgirls, to full blown 360 degree adult videos, porn in VR is here and it’s making it’s mark. Whether you’ve got a Gear VR, Oculus Rift, or even Playstation VR, there is plenty of adult content just waiting for you out there.

In a blog post yesterday, YouTube made a few announcements to cap off 2017’s VidCon US. In the post, they discussed their plans to remake the YouTube Creator Studio — their current channel management system — and simplify the name down to just “YouTube Studio.” They also revealed a new system for comments that allows viewers to sort them by selected topics, making it easier to find what you want, and ignore what you don’t.
Over the last week, YouTube has been very busy.
