I was going to say ArsTechinica which I have fond memories of from many years ago, but I just took a look and I don’t even recognize it - looks more like engadget. So, no, not recommending.

Ars Technica is more of a general tech and science news site. They do some computer hardware and phone reviews, but nowhere near what a dedicated tech site does, and they're often not Day 1 reviews.

I find their content generally pretty high quality for their niche (with Beth Mole's and Eric Berger's content being my personal standouts), but Ars Technica is by no means a substitute for a site like AnandTech.

Have they changed to be more of a general tech news science in recent years? I remember them being much more technical review focused years ago, but I might be remembering incorrectly.

Any other sites folks would recommend? It doesn't look to me like the sites mentioned have the same mix of stories as Anand would have covered. I'd like something that's really in the same vein.

Tom's - not the same quality it used to be.

Serve the Home - some articles only. Others are bad.

C & C - no comment, not enough experience with them.

Occasionally:

LTT (Linus Tech Tips), very commercial

Hardware Unboxing

Gamer's Nexus

JayzTwoCents

No not Tom’s Hardware. That site is basically UGC now and is hot garbage.

UGC == user-generated content.
