Canon's New Camera Is in a Category Once Thought Practically Dead

cnet.com Geoffrey Morrison 2025-06-10 19:59:00

A new point-and-shoot camera? In 2025? That might seem surprising if you aren't up on the latest trends. The reality is the prices of used and older compact cameras have gone through the roof. There's a real interest, especially among younger people, for capable cameras separate from their phones. Canon follows recent announcements by Nikon, Panasonic and others with its new camera in a category once thought dead.

Sonos Roam: Available in white or black for $179, the Roam is currently the smallest and most affordable Sonos speaker (if you don't count those $99 Sonos-compatible Symfonisk Ikea Wi-Fi bookshelf speakers), although it's fairly expensive for a mini wireless speaker.

Small study suggests dark mode doesn’t save much power for very human reasons

If you know how OLED displays work, you know about one of their greatest strengths: Individual pixels can be shut off, offering deeper blacks and power savings. Dark modes, now available on most operating systems, aim to save power by making most backgrounds very dark or black, while also gratifying those who just prefer the look. But what about on the older but still dominant screen technology, LCDs? The BBC is out with a small, interesting study comparing the light and dark modes of one of it

Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti review: An RTX 4080 for $749, at least in theory

Nvidia's RTX 50-series makes its first foray below the $1,000 mark starting this week, with the $749 RTX 5070 Ti—at least in theory. The third-fastest card in the Blackwell GPU lineup, the 5070 Ti is still far from "reasonably priced" by historical standards (the 3070 Ti was $599 at launch). But it's also $50 cheaper and a fair bit faster than the outgoing 4070 Ti Super and the older 4070 Ti. These are steps in the right direction, if small ones.
