The 3i S10 Ultra is claimed to be the first robotic mop and vacuum that never needs to be refilled or connected to a water source. It instead cleans and recycles its wastewater, while also extracting all the clean water it needs from the air.
Full pricing is expected to be $1,899, but the robovac can be preordered through Kickstarter at a discount.
The Trozk RetroTalk is a portable 20,000mAh charger inspired by the Motorola DynaTAC 8000X, the world’s first commercially available mobile phone. Trozk’s version offers charging speeds up to 140W over USB-C, and while it can’t make calls, it does include walkie-talkie functionality.
Early backers can pre-order it through Kickstarter for $89 with delivery expected in November, while full pricing will be over $120.
