It's not uncommon to have a smartphone, a laptop and a tablet. I use all three, sometimes for many of the same tasks, like text messages, streaming and social media. The same is true for a lot of people. CNET's recent survey examines how most US adults use laptops, tablets and smartphones. Laptops are commonly used for work and educational tasks like creating and viewing documents (52%), streaming (35%) and creative work (33%).

SwitchBot had a few AI-powered devices on display at IFA 2025; not just a furry little robot pet (I picked it up and it’s not cuddly). They included an E Ink AI art display, which generates AI art on demand, an AI tennis robot that you can “play” matches against, and a couple of robot vacuums. We’ll get to all of that, but the main thing that caught my eye was the SwitchBot AI Hub. It’s not that the others aren’t interesting—of course they are—it’s that I love good, easy automation.

But Justin Sun, a pro-Trump crypto billionaire who reportedly bought about $75 million of the token, says his wallets have been frozen. And nobody is sure why.
