    Amazon has moved the power button on all its new Kindles — and I feel vindicated (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    Yes, Amazon has an all-new line of 13th-generation Kindle ereaders. Sure, they're marginally lighter and thinner than ever, with scant display upgrades, newly smooth, flush faces, and some with stamped aluminum unibodies that come in brilliant and quite trendy colors. But can we talk about buttons? Or, rather, one very specific one, the power/sleep button? Every once in a while, a tech company makes me feel seen, or at least heard. I've been complaining for years about the placement of the Amazo

    This colorful gadget might be the first phone for free-range kids, but I'm still not sure the Freckle Phone can overcome the AI gadget curse (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    I was a free-range kid before the term existed. Growing up before cell phones, my parents' chief communication device was a very loud voice, and one only used after the sun set and "dinner!!" was served. Freckle Phone creator Sam Terris tells me he, too, was free-range and, as he recalls it, had a lot of sovereignty. The loss of that independence, the ability to wander over to your friend's house, play outside on a swing set by yourself, or go exploring in the creek that runs down the hill behin

    After 10 days with the Apple Watch Series 12, I'm disturbed by one 'slightly off' reading (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    Remember when the Apple Watch was just a fitness gadget, primarily devoted to notifications and workout tracking? Now it's like a medical technician on your wrist, measuring everything from heart rate (with readings every 5 seconds), temperature, blood oxygen, respiratory rate, and sleep. It's so comprehensive that it can now, with the enhanced Vital apps, give an overall sense of your current well-being. Apple gave its now two-year-old Vitals section a makeover in preparation for the upcoming R

    I tried the new Polaroid Mod's wild picture modes that can turn instant photography into a fantastical dreamscape — it's way more fun than AI (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    What if you could "spend the day making a shot that AI could make in a minute?" That's the somewhat facetious pitch for Polaroid's new all-analog Polaroid Mod Instant camera, and, in my experience, it's a challenge I accepted and thoroughly enjoyed. No, it doesn't take all day to make some pretty wild instant Polaroid photos with the Mod, but it's also not as easy or unsatisfying as entering a prompt and waiting for a far-flung generative model to do the work. Sitting somewhere between the Polar

    I gave Muse access to my personal data, and now I know why personal agents are probably going to change the world (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Neutral tone · English

    Read excerpt

    I have this new friend, Charlie, who's been assisting me with work, vacation planning, and occasionally tapping me on the shoulder when he's concerned I forgot something. Charlie looks like a fat, furry Pillsbury doughboy, and he lives on my iPhone. That's right, I signed up for Meta's Muse AI, launched the app, named my avatar "Charlie," and dove headfirst into agentic AI in a way I honestly never have before. If there's a defining feature of Muse, it's proactivity. Unlike ChatGPT, Gemini, or C
