I’ll only upgrade to the Galaxy Watch 8 if it focuses on these 2 features

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-26 01:00:07

Kaitlyn Cimino / Android Authority I’ve used several smartwatches throughout my career, switching between devices to match my changing priorities. However, the one smartwatch I always return to is my Galaxy Watch 4. Now paired with a Galaxy smartphone, it’s become the center of my ecosystem. Samsung’s first new-generation Wear OS watch launched in 2021. Now, nearly four years later, I still feel little temptation to upgrade. While the watch is starting to show its age, as its chipped exterior

These Smart Glasses Are Already Kicking Meta Ray-Bans’ Ass

gizmodo.com James Pero 2025-08-26 16:40:26

Meta clearly has more competition than ever in the world of smart glasses, and that field of competitors isn’t getting any slimmer. The most recent company to join the smart glasses fray is China’s Xiaomi, which just unveiled a pair of frames that, if I’m being totally honest here, puts Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses to shame—at least on paper. The first thing I noticed about Xiaomi’s AI Glasses, which costs around the same price as Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses at $280, is that it does something that I’ve be

5 Best Google Assistant Speakers (2025): Speakers, Displays, Soundbars

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

gizmodo.com Raymond Wong 2025-08-27 16:00:03

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.

The best sleep trackers of 2025: These sleep trackers improved my sleep

Why we like it: The Oura Ring is the best sleep tracker for a few reasons. It's discreet and far more comfortable to wear to bed compared to a health band or smartwatch. Oura's data capture is accurate, with its sleep staging algorithm matching the performance of a polysomnography sleep lab test.

Early US Intel assessment suggests strikes on Iran did not destroy nuclear sites

CNN — The US military strikes on three of Iran’s nuclear facilities last weekend did not destroy the core components of the country’s nuclear program and likely only set it back by months, according to an early US intelligence assessment that was described by four people briefed on it. The assessment, which has not been previously reported, was produced by the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon’s intelligence arm. It is based on a battle damage assessment conducted by US Central Command

One of the most common blind spots in small business security is access management for various company resources. Today’s IT teams are moving fast (and often understaffed), solving customer problems, and juggling shifting responsibilities as the business grows and evolves. Many SMBs also don’t have a dedicated IT team. They might be fixing things by committee or just trusting that vendors have these problems solved.
