Some computers and televisions

Answer:

SONYS

Hint:

This Japanese tech giant was a pioneer in portable music players and gaming consoles in the 1990s and 2000s.

Explanation:

This clue hints at a brand known for making both computers and televisions. "Some" signals that you only need part of the brand name—here, it's the first letters of "Sony," pluralized as "SONYS" to fit the crossword's word count. The answer plays on the idea of taking a well-known electronics company and tweaking it slightly for the puzzle.
