    Tesla’s now selling a seven-inch version of its humanoid robot.

    Tesla’s Optimus robot is now available through the company’s online store, but in a version that’s even less capable than the ones at its recent Cybercab reveal. The $40, 1:10-scale Tesla Bot Action Figure stands 7.16 inches tall and is assembled from over 40 parts offering 20 points of articulation. It includes a tiny matching charging stand and a CyberHammer.

    Two Tesla Bot action figures, one sitting and one standing, posed next to each other.

    Sony’s DVD Walkman was ahead of its time.

    We’ve got portable CD players on the brain this week, but did you know Sony once made a wearable DVD player that let you watch movies while out for a stroll? YouTube’s Techmoan recently tested Sony’s D-VM1 from 2001 which looked like a chonky CD player, but had an inline remote with a lightweight 3.5-inch screen for watching DVDs away from home.

    Bose is collaborating with Kith again to resurrect an iconic speaker.

    The company recently partnered with Kith for its Ultra Open Earbuds, but this time Ronnie Fieg is helping to redesign Bose’s 901 speakers which originally debuted in 1968, but were discontinued in 2016.

    We don’t know pricing or availability details, but Fieg, who’s working with furniture designer Mark Jupiter, shared images on Instagram of the limited edition and wonderfully retro redesign.

    Razer has expanded its USB-C dock to 14 ports.

    Following its 11-port USB-C dock launched at CES 2024, Razer has announced a new 14-port upgrade.

    It features a similar aluminum housing, but the new dock now has 100W of power delivery to a laptop, transfer speeds of up to 40Gb/s, and supports two 4K displays — one at 120Hz and a second at 60. It’s available now for $229.99, but still doesn’t glow.
