Asus has new laptops coming out in time for IFA next month, and we get to see one of them in quite a few alleged renders that appear to have likely been upscaled using AI and kind of messed up in the process. Frankly, at first glance, it kind of sounds like we shouldn’t care. However, this might just be our first detailed look at what is one of the very first Googlebooks to come out. Yes, in case you haven’t been paying attention to the space, Google announced the Googlebook back in May. We can’t say for sure whether…

Ever since I made my own AI voice assistant for controlling my smart home, I’ve been on the lookout for better models I can run locally. There’s no shortage of powerful local LLMs around, but unless you’ve got a near-enterprise-grade server racked tucked away in your house, you’re likely going to have to settle for something that isn’t as smart as its cloud counterparts. Ornith 9B, however, turned out to be different. It might be the smallest model in DeepReinforce’s Ornith 1.0 family, but this model gave my laptop nearly 35B answers, with media support.

Paul Jones / Android AuthorityApple won’t be able to waltz in and best the Galaxy Z Fold 8 by default. I understand the company’s track record and mass appeal, but the general consensus I’ve been seeing about Apple’s rumored iPhone Ultra assumes too much. I loved my hands-on time with the Galaxy Z Fold 8, and I can’t wait to get my review unit. It’s a refreshing form factor. And given how much I still enjoy my original Pixel Fold, I don’t expect the novelty to wear off as some claim.The Galaxy Z Fold 8 has made me more interested…
Microsoft has already signed 10GW of AI data center contracts year-to-date for over $300B of total contract value, but those contribute to late-2027 and 2028 capacity, leaving a near-term gap to fill. Semianalysis has calculated the tokenomics of OpenAI and Anthropic at $100 billion per year per gigawatt. Microsoft can also monetize at $100 Billion per yaer per gigawatt. Microsoft has full access to OpenAI models. They can generate the exact same revenue and margin per MW, while paying none of the training costs. The deal reworked in April 2026 dropped the old 20% revenue share from the equation. Microsoft…
Smartwatches and fitness trackers are generally pretty great, as they’re packed with plenty of features that promise to offer a solid overview on your health. Among the likes of heart rate monitoring and workout tracking, many of the best smartwatches and best fitness trackers provide users with a so-called fitness age which has the power to either give you bragging rights or keep you incredibly humble.

Paying $24.99 for a new release, settling in, and then noticing that your TV hasn’t thrown up its Dolby Vision badge may be a small problem, but it’s also a very specific feeling of deflation. The product page said Dolby Vision, but the film is playing in HDR10, the soundbar is reporting 5.1 rather than Atmos, and nothing about the transaction you completed ten minutes ago suggested you’d been sold anything less than the best version. Whether you own the digital content you buy is the bigger question, though the format is the one that bites first, and it stings…
