gizmodo.com Sabina Graves 2025-09-03 05:45:45

Dean Fleischer Camp’s summer blockbuster hit Lilo & Stitch has officially been given the Disney green light for a sequel.

The first film was a blockbuster hit for the studio, which made $920 million globally after being made for a mere $100 million, which is small considering Disney’s usually oversized budge

OnePlus Watch 3 Gets Smaller Size Because Not Everybody Has Hulk Wrists

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-09-03 13:00:03

OnePlus is giving customers exactly what they’ve been asking for: a smaller version of its Watch 3 smartwatch. With a 43mm case, the smaller Watch 3 will be better for those with smaller wrists than the one-size-fits-all 46mm model that launched last year to generally high reviews. The OnePlus Watch 43mm launches next month on July 8 in the U.S. and Canada, but the gadget company hasn’t announced pricing.
