Unless you live on a sprawling, rolling estate there’s now less reason to splurge on Roborock’s top tier models. The next version of its budget-minded offering, the new RockNeo Q2, is getting an upgrade to LiDAR-based navigation so it can maneuver through tight spaces and avoid obstacles without the need for ground wires or an RTK GPS station.
After debuting in China last month, the follow-up to DJI’s first 360-degree camera will launch globally on September 15th starting at €589, but not in the US. The Osmo 360 II features the same dual 1/1.1-inch square sensors as the original but bumps 8K video capture to 60fps with a wider dynamic range to improve low-light performance.
The Oukitel RG14-P includes an integrated solar panel that supports 10W charging, which can recharge the battery to 50 percent within approximately six hours “under optimal sunlight conditions.” There’s no price, but it’s expected to launch in November with a 14th gen Intel Core i7 processor, 16GB RAM, and 512GB expandable storage, and optionally, a built-in camping light.
It must mean IFA Media Days are in full swing. I’m on my way to check out Anker’s press conference, and Dom is going to seek out something that folds somewhere in the basement of the Messe. Keep up with us all day as we track down the hottest new gadgets in Berlin ahead of the show’s official opening tomorrow!
It’s short, it’s wide, and it’s red. It’s also powered by Xiaomi’s new in-house Xring 03 chip, so it’ll be interesting to see how performance stacks up. Oh, and it’s launching in China on September 7th, which I’m sure has nothing to do with upcoming events in California.
Satechi announced a collection of color-matched MacBook Neo accessories in July, but not a replacement charger. So Belkin is making its 30W BoostCharge Compact USB-C Charger available in new citrus, blush, indigo, and silver color options later this month for $26.99 to match Apple’s budget-friendly laptop.
When folded flat it won’t be as thin as magnetic grips from OhSnap or PopSockets, but Belkin’s new Compact Magnetic Ring Stand adds a suction mount so you can stick your phone to walls, mirrors, windows, dashboards, or any smooth, flat surface that ensures a strong seal. It’s expected to launch in November for $24.99.
The Narwal V50 Cube pairs a 5.6-pound stick vac with up to 180 minutes of cleaning time (thanks to a second swappable battery) with a dock that looks inspired by Picasso’s cubism era. The dock can hold up to 100 days of debris, which is blasted with UV light to kill bacteria and reduce odors.
