How to Follow the Latest Stories on BGR
Updated
BGR publishes a running feed of tech and entertainment stories on its homepage, and you can follow new content by browsing the Latest Stories list or jumping into a category such as TV, Security, Audio, Computers, or Apps & Software. The site also shows a subscribe entry point, which is the clearest signal that ongoing updates can be delivered rather than only read on-site. The exact subscription terms, price, and whether an account is required are not specified in the available page information, so treat those details as something to confirm on the site itself.
What the homepage gives you
The homepage is organized around a Latest Stories feed. Each item shows a headline, a short excerpt, the category, the author, and a relative timestamp (for example, "10 min ago"), followed by a Read More link to the full article.
That structure is useful for two different reading habits:
- Scanning for what's new: the timestamps and ordering let you see recent activity at a glance without opening every article.
- Following a beat: the category label on each card tells you whether a story sits under TV, Entertainment, Security, Audio, Computers, or Apps & Software, so you can skip topics you don't care about.
The page evidence shows the feed mixing formats, not just news briefs. Recent items include an explainer ("Why Is Xbox Called That?"), a security warning ("FBI Issues Warning On Major Cybersecurity Threat"), a product review (Insta360 Mic), a buying comparison (Raspberry Pi 5 vs. LattePanda Mu Ultra), and a how-to ("You Can Build A Dedicated Music Server Using Your Old Devices"). If you want a single stream that covers news, reviews, and practical guides, the Latest Stories list is the place to start.
Following by category
Because every card carries a category label, the most efficient way to follow a specific interest is to browse that category rather than the full feed. Based on the homepage listing, the visible categories include:
| Category | What appears there |
|---|---|
| TV | Show histories, streaming picks, viewing settings |
| Entertainment | Broader pop-culture and media stories |
| Security | Threat warnings and safety news |
| Audio | Headphones, mics, and audio gear reviews |
| Computers | DIY boards, hardware comparisons, benchmarks |
| Apps & Software | App roundups and software guides |
A practical routine: check Latest Stories once for anything time-sensitive (security warnings especially), then move to your category of interest for deeper reads. The category label is also a quick quality filter — a "Review" or "We tested" item signals hands-on evaluation, while an explainer signals background context.
Using the subscribe option
The page shows a subscribe keyword, which indicates the site offers a way to receive content beyond manual visits. What the available information does not cover: the price, what a subscription includes, whether a free tier exists, or whether login is required. Those are the things to check directly on the subscription page before committing.
A reasonable approach:
- Open the subscribe entry from the homepage.
- Read what is included and whether any cost applies.
- Compare that against simply bookmarking the Latest Stories page or a category page — if you only want headlines, manual browsing may be enough.
What to expect from the writing
BGR describes itself as offering "expert analysis of the leading stories in tech and entertainment plus reviews of the latest gadgets." In practice, the homepage shows named authors on each piece (for example, Ethan Stinson, Akos Peterbencze, Joshua Hawkins, Liz Young, Adam Doud, Sydney Louw Butler, Joel Loynds, José Adorno, Anthoni Oi), with bylines and timestamps attached to every card.
That matters for following the site: if a particular writer covers the beat you care about, their byline on a card is a faster signal than the category alone. Reviews and comparisons carry test language ("We tested the Raspberry Pi 5 and LattePanda Mu Ultra with benchmarks and retro games"), while explainers and history pieces lean on context rather than testing.
A simple way to stay current
- Daily: scan Latest Stories for new timestamps; open anything in Security first if you manage sites or devices.
- Weekly: browse your main category (TV, Audio, Computers, or Apps & Software) for reviews and guides you'd otherwise miss.
- Ongoing: check the subscribe option if you want updates pushed to you, and confirm the terms on-site before signing up.
The homepage feed and category labels are enough to follow BGR without any account; subscription is an optional convenience whose details are best verified directly.
