Circular announced its new Ring 3 Series today as a follow-up to the Ring 2 that debuted at CES 2025 with upgraded sensors and FDA-cleared atrial fibrillation detection. The new Ring 3 collection consists of both a Pro model that carries forward those same health-tracking features, and a smaller Slim option that offers more limited stats tracking. But both versions of the new Ring 3 feature vibrating alerts for alarms, medication reminders, and guided breathing exercises, and an integrated NFC

Cast your mind back a decade or so, and smartphone makers were obsessed with shrinking the bezel on phones. Screens got bigger, the black bars around them got smaller, and for a while it looked like truly edge-to-edge displays were imminent. Then, progress just stopped. The bezel shrunk down until it was a millimeter or so on every side, on just about every phone, and phone manufacturers seemed to agree as one that this was probably far enough. Tecno, a budget brand in the same family as Itel

Using Frore’s air-cooling technology, Lenovo’s Project AeroBlade Concept is an ultralightweight laptop with efficient heat management.

Users can search for emails or draft documents using the new conversational feature

OpenAI's ChatGPT, xAI's Grok, and Anthropic's Claude are all experiencing issues. At around 11AM ET, ChatGPT started returning error messages for users trying to use the chatbot, with its status page saying there are currently "elevated errors across ChatGPT and Codex." In addition to preventing users from having conversations with ChatGPT, the outage is also affecting logins, file uploads, voice mode, search, deep research, image generation, and more. OpenAI says it has "applied a mitigation" a

After expanding its health and beauty lineup earlier this week with a camera-equipped electric toothbrush, Dyson is also introducing two new hair care products this month. The $329 Corrale CoolShine straightener upgrades the original Corrale that launched in 2020 with active cooling technology designed to "reduce residual heat exposure" so hair feels smoother, softer, and cooler to the touch after styling. Alongside it is the new $249 Dyson Airsmooth dryer brush designed for both drying and styl

Google is rolling out an updated AI weather model that's supposed to be more accurate, especially when it comes to predicting rain and snowfall. In the announcement today, the company says it's now able to make forecasts with "unprecedented resolution" using its new WeatherNext 3 AI model. It can produce a global picture that's five times sharper than Google's previous model by learning from real-time weather observations, according to the company. "One of the main developments is for [WeatherNe

Today, I’m talking with Tom Conrad, the CEO of Sonos. Tom and I have known each other for a long time — he was the chief technology officer of Pandora, VP of product at Snap, and the chief product officer of Quibi. He was also on the board at Sonos during its disastrous 2024 app redesign that threatened to crash the entire brand.  Tom took over as interim CEO to right the ship during that period, and then took the permanent role just about a year ago. As you’ll hear him say, he thinks Sonos is f

Hohem is trying something new with its Eyepic handheld stabilized camera to differentiate it from existing offerings from companies like DJI and Insta360. At its core, the camera is functionally similar to devices like the Osmo Pocket 4 and Insta360 Luna Ultra with a rotating preview screen and a small camera module stabilized by a three-axis gimbal. But the Eyepic borrows an idea popularized by recent action cams by letting you detach the magnetic camera module and use it as a tiny standalone c

Nvidia says Hugging Face will stay open even as the chipmaker takes control of a key AI hub.

DJI has announced a second generation of its Romo robovac. The Romo 2 series is quieter, more powerful, and better at climbing over small steps and other obstacles. But more importantly for DJI, a new local-only data mode should go some way to reassuring anyone concerned by the first Romo's serious security flaws. There are actually two new Romo models, the transparent P2 and the opaque A2. Both benefit from improved navigation, apparently able to avoid cables and other obstacles as small as 2mm

At IFA 2026, Nvidia and its partners showed off the first RTX Spark-powered laptops and mini PCs, designed to run AI models right on your computer.

When the beta arrives next year—15 years after its predecessor—Guild Wars 3 will have a new momentum engine that makes combat in the game feel closer to an action RPG.

The long-rumored deal will give the chip giant access to—and help it promote—a huge repository of open-source AI models and data sets.

Zoox is expanding to this critical ride-hailing destination a few weeks after it started charging for robotaxi rides.

Nvidia has agreed to buy Hugging Face for $12.93 billion, bringing one of the most popular hosting platforms for open-source AI models, datasets, and tools under the ownership of the world's biggest AI chipmaker. Hugging Face is an online platform founded in 2016 that gives AI developers a space to share their projects and data with other users and the general public. It's often described as the "GitHub" for AI due to its browsable library of open-source machine learning models and emphasis on c

The “sculpted” design is more premium than other Nxtpaper phones so far. | Image: TCL With the P80 Ultra, TCL's E Ink-esque Nxtpaper phones are finally going OLED. Just like previous LCD models, the phone can switch to a low power, monochromatic display mode that replicates the look of paper when you want to read or minimize distractions. Only now you can switch back to what the company calls a "flagship-level" OLED experience the rest of the time. TCL first revealed the OLED Nxtpaper technolo
