Much of the talk around tariffs has died down in recent weeks, but that doesn’t mean that they no longer affect companies and customers alike. Now, Microsoft is feeling the consequences of the ongoing trade war between the US and China. As a result, hardware prices are about to increase significantly, starting with the popular Xbox console in October.

This Galaxy Feature Isn’t Out Yet—But It Could Literally Save Your Life
Samsung’s smartwatches are already a powerful range of wearables, offering far more than basic step counts and heart rate tracking. With continued development, it’s clear the company aims to equip them with even more life-saving tools. And we may already have a clue about what’s coming next, which is early detection of Alzheimer’s disease.

Roborock RockMow Z1 Hands-On: SUV Among Robot Lawn Mowers
At IFA 2025, Roborock unveiled its first robot lawn mower series, which is made up of three models. The flagship model in particular, the RockMow Z1, caused quite a stir. It boasted all-wheel drive, up to two mowing discs, and was designed to handle XXL-sized gardens without breaking a sweat. At a Roborock press event, I had the opportunity to take a closer look at the robot lawn mower to share my first impression of the Roborock RockMow Z1.

After what felt like forever, Apple finally bumped up the Apple Watch’s battery life.

iPhone 17 Pro: Why Battery Life Varies by Country
Apple has always adapted its iPhones to regional markets. Sometimes this is done for technical reasons, and sometimes for regulatory reasons. In the USA, for instance, there are special mmWave 5G antennas, while in Japan, you get a FeliCa chip for contactless payment, which was installed exclusively for a long time. Over in China, there are dual SIM slots. There are also restrictions, such as how the camera sound cannot be turned off in Japan, or how FaceTime audio and video calling is deactivated in the United Arab Emirates. However, these differences have never affected battery life, until now.
