The Pixel 10A is a little too much like last year’s phone

It’s a minimal update. Google didn’t bring many Pixel 10 features down to the Pixel 10A this year. Buy the berry color.

Amazon shelves Blue Jay robotics system as it prioritizes smaller same-day delivery warehouses.

The shift comes just a few months after Amazon launched Blue Jay in October, calling it “an extra set of hands” for warehouse employees.

If you’ve even wondered how important that lumen measurement is on projectors…

YouTube was broken, but now it’s back.

A partial YouTube outage knocked out access to Google’s video service on Tuesday night.

The outage appears to have started just before 8PM ET, but at least on the homepage, it appears to be resolved now.

Update: The service is back online.

Samsung is teasing “a new Galaxy camera experience” coming next week, saying that “the latest Galaxy AI experiences will bring advanced creative tools to one place.” A handful of teaser videos — along with those AI-generated ads — give me the impression that we’re going to see more AI tools crammed into the camera system. But maybe calling it “the brightest Galaxy camera system to date” confirms the rumors of brighter apertures, which could do a lot more for image quality than some AI editing tools.

In case you missed our story, DJI’s first robovac launched with now-patched holes that could’ve let hackers or even tinkerers see inside your home from a world away. DJI tells us it’ll also address another vulnerability, which we deemed too risky to disclose, in the coming months. We’ll let you know if it doesn’t.
