Four hours in New York City
New York City is one of my all-time favorite places. I have a lot of favorite destinations, I have to admit, but NYC and Manhattan really are special.
Hands on with the Huawei Mate 20 Pro
When the Huawei P20 Pro came out early in the year, the camera was like nothing else I’d tried before. The device features a ground-breaking and powerful trio of cameras that could capture very impressive photos, nearly as good as a DSLR. And then I got my hands on the Huawei Mate 20 Pro earlier this week, and even after hearing the buzz for the device, I was blown away by the phone.
Fall with the Samsung Galaxy Note 9

Eighteen years! That’s how long I’ve been covering TIFF, and even I have to admit that’s a long time to do anything. In TIFF years it feels even a little longer, but I’ve loved nearly every minute of it, and this year is shaping up to be another very good year.

Last night Awkwafina, Shawn Mendes, Kris Wu, Derek Hough, and dozens of performers and stars took over 299 Queen for the iHeartRadio MuchMusic Video Awards, and for the 16th year I was in the press room, and on the red carpet for interviews.
