The brand that turned hoverboards and robot lawn mowers into mass-market categories is now selling a 187-pound electric dirt bike with 21 kW of peak power.

Google wants us to believe the future of laptops is Android in a Chromebook shell. The 16-minute leak that dropped hours before the official Android Show tells a more complicated story. We sat through the full AluminiumOS walkthrough, and what stands out is not the Pixel desktop mode familiarity or the iPhone link promise. It

Some knife drops are about specs and pricing. This one’s about memory. WeKnife’s latest Arrakis configuration, the 906CF-E, isn’t a routine restock or a fresh color run. The brand is calling it a tribute to designer Elijah Isham, released to mark the fourth anniversary of his passing. The Arrakis is a flipper knife designed by

Timex slipped a watch out earlier this May hat’s already harder to track down than most retail experiments this year. The Space Jam 30th Anniversary x Q Timex Limited Edition arrived in a run of 1,000 numbered pieces, priced at $269, and went up exclusively through Timex.com. It’s a quiet release for a watch this

Ugreen’s accessory team clearly watched the World Cup countdown clock before greenlighting this one. The brand’s newest item tracker, the FineTrack Soccer Design, looks like a shrunken-down soccer ball, runs on Apple’s Find My network, and started shipping worldwide on May 15, 2026, just weeks before FIFA World Cup 2026 kicks off across North America.

ECOVACS spent more than two decades teaching machines to clean floors, scrub windows, mow lawns, and skim pools. Today the company decided it’s done with utility. LilMilo, ECOVACS’ first emotional AI companion robot, went on sale in the US for $599, and it’s the brand’s clearest signal yet that the next robotics category isn’t about

The smart glasses race finally has a credible Apple release window, and it isn’t the one fans were hoping for. Longtime Apple reporter Mark Gurman now says the company plans to show off its first smart glasses in 2026 and ship them in 2027, per coverage from MacRumors and Macworld of Gurman’s Power On newsletter.

Something shifted in smart rings this year, and it’s not subtle. The category Oura defined for almost a decade isn’t a one-horse race anymore. There are at least three rings on the market right now that beat Oura on a single measurable axis, and the buyer who reflexively types “best smart ring 2026” into Google

PongBot has launched Aura, a ball machine that physically reconfigures for tennis, pickleball, and padel from a single chassis. The company set an introductory price of $499, which lands at roughly half the cost of the cheapest single-sport competitor currently on the market, with a planned $999 MSRP once the launch window closes. Early buyers

Travel season is when chargers get punished. Spring breaks, Memorial Day flights, Father’s Day road trips, July 4th cookouts that turn into all-day events. By the time July rolls around, most of us are hauling a wall charger, a power bank for travel, and a tangle of cables that all do roughly the same job.

The wrist real estate fight feels settled. Apple, Samsung, and Garmin keep stacking sensors onto rectangles, and most Kickstarter watches are just cheaper takes on that same playbook. Two new campaigns running right now don’t bother fighting in that lane at all. Price: From $160 Where to Buy: Kickstarter One is a tactical 2-in-1 from

A new leak says the iPhone 18 Pro Max could land with a 5,200 mAh battery, the biggest cell Apple’s ever shipped in a phone. The number sounds dramatic. The actual real-world gain looks much smaller, and a few details in the rumor itself tell us why. Here’s what the claim actually means, what would

We spent the first 24 hours after the Royal Pop announcement trying to figure out if Swatch was playing a joke. A $400 ceramic pocket watch that looks this much like a Royal Oak, and you can’t wear it on your wrist? The lanyard is charming in a 1990s-keychain sort of way, but most of

Casio’s compact corner of the G-Shock catalog just picked up two more colorways, and they’re aimed squarely at wrists that find the brand’s classic square a bit much. The GMD-B300-2 arrives in a deep navy with a vapor-deposition sheen on the glass, and the GMD-B300-7 lands in off-white with metallic printing on the crystal. Both

Sony’s Xperia 1 VIII finally got its big reveal today, and the headline isn’t the chip or the battery. It’s that Sony looked at every trend in the 2026 flagship market and shrugged. Headphone jack, microSD slot, bezels, front-facing stereo speakers, two-stage shutter button: all still there. The Sony Xperia 1 VIII is a deliberate

Leatherman just dropped two limited-edition Raptor Rescue colorways on for International Nurses Day, and they look nothing like the workhorse shears most nurses, EMTs, and search-and-rescue pros already keep clipped to their bags. One pairs deep violet handles with a rainbow-tinted finish on the shears. The other runs violet handles against rose gold shears. Both

When the first Snapdragon X Elite arrived in mid-2024, the pitch was cleaner than the reality. Battery life held up. App compatibility didn’t. Plenty of early buyers ran into VPNs, print drivers, or specialized utilities that wouldn’t run cleanly on Windows on Arm. Eighteen months later, the Snapdragon X2 Elite laptop shows up with a

After a week of teaser ads and watch-forum guessing, Swatch and Audemars Piguet have made it official: the Royal Pop Collection lands at selected Swatch boutiques on Saturday, May 16, 2026, and it isn’t a wristwatch. It’s a set of eight Bioceramic pocket watches that price the Royal Oak silhouette at $400. Price: $400 Where

We’ve spent thirteen years reviewing Chromebooks as the budget machine you buy when $300 is the hard ceiling. Google’s new Googlebook, announced today at the Android Show: I/O Edition, is not that machine. It’s a premium laptop built on part of the Android tech stack and ChromeOS, with Gemini wired into the OS, a cursor

The first thing you carry that doesn’t need a charger feels strange in 2026. We’re so used to plugging in earbuds, smartwatches, even the toothbrush, that the idea of a speaker pulling sound out of thin air sounds like a gimmick.
