The Miles Plug adds crash detection, roadside help, location tracking, and a warning-light decoder to your car for as low as $11 a month.
Nvidia’s new Arm-based laptop chip is an exciting new challenger, but exclusively for the high-end.
Instinct AI is an impressive assistant, but the pressure from OpenAI and Meta is officially on.
The Alexa line is also Amazon’s first tablet to run full-fledged Android with access to the Play Store.
That’s almost exactly a month after the China launch. Highlights include the first ever triple 200-megapixel camera on the Find X10 Pro Max, and big 8,000mAh batteries on both, though Oppo warns “selected markets” get 7,150mAh instead. I’m working on a review of the Pro Max — what do you want to know?
Google’s new laptop OS shows lots of promise for Android phone owners, but there’s a long road ahead.
Think of Dots as Codex, but for regular people.

Alongside solid ANC, the Nothing Headphone 1 Pro include a triple-driver design and a unique switch for studio pros.
Audio-only Ray-Bans have arrived alongside more camera-equipped glasses. What’s missing? Privacy controls to address the ‘perv glasses’ backlash.
Plus two other refreshed treadmills and a host of AI running features.
Issues with the butterfly doors and bizarre drop-off locations cloud what is an otherwise impressive, future-forward experience.
Dom says it’s quick and easy to snap a propeller backback onto the HoverAir Versa, and then… it can fly! Shame that HoverAir isn’t transparently telling backers that this camera has been banned in the US, and shame on the Trump administration for creating the dumb drone ban to begin with.
Lenovo’s Project Swan has a screen that literally unrolls. The prototype could use better speakers and some weight balancing, but I love watching it in motion!
Remember Frore and its fan-replacing AirJet cooling tech? Sure looks like Lenovo is taking it seriously!
The Luna Pro is already out in China. We’re still waiting for a US launch, but it was on the company’s stand at IFA so I had a play. It’s single-lens, but can use the 8K sensor to capture 4K footage either landscape or portrait, and has the Ultra’s detachable display too.
I am largely uninterested in Android tablets these days — and yet! This just-announced Lenovo Yoga Tab Plus Gen 2 surprised me in person. Magnetically snaps right onto this “OneStep” keyboard frame, surprisingly excellent typing with 1.5mm key travel, firm non-slip leatherette base. Doesn’t open one-handed, though, and I’d like it better with a carry handle.
Hands-on with Mova’s new V70 Ultra Complete and its mopping arm that cleans hard-to-reach spots.
I keep coming back to the criminally slept-on Model:Samples and Model:Cycles.

Sony’s spec monster let me shoot 67-megapixel images fast, silently, and without any blackout.
We’re talking offline Gemini, proactive AI suggestions, better GPS maps, insulin resistance trends, and a $50 price hike.
More helpful features, less AI slop.
