    XPS is back, but Dell Pros are still here to stay.

    Dell reversed course on its confusing naming scheme from 2025, but some of it’s intact — with new tweaks. The returning XPS laptops are still joined by entry-level vanilla “Dell” models. Enterprise-focused Dell Pro laptops are now topped by Dell Pro Precision models instead of the Apple-y sounding Pro Max.

    Perfect? No. Better? Much.

    Dreame made a $700 hair dryer that looks like a floor lamp — which it also is.

    Wish you could dry your hair hands-free while sitting on the couch? That’s apparently the concept behind Dreame’s giant blow dryer, which also has LEDs to use it as an actual lamp.

    It’s due out by the end of the year, but it wasn’t even plugged in at CES Unveiled. We’ll have to find another chance to try it on some luscious locks during the show.
