This $300 Motorola has no business being this good for the price (and it's on sale)

zdnet.com Cesar Cadenas 2025-08-14 00:30:00

Motorola's Moto G Power is the sibling to the 2025 Moto G, a solid mid-tier smartphone that I reviewed not too long ago. The variant is not a huge upgrade over the base device. The two share many similarities, with only a handful of differences. But those small changes were enough to make me enjoy the Power model more than the standard.

gizmodo.com Gizmodo Deals 2025-08-14 16:50:00

In just 24 hours of Prime Day, Amazon has seen a whirlwind of deals especially for home tech.

That’s what makes today’s deal on the iRobot Roomba Robot Vacuum and Mop Combo (Y0140 mode) so impressive: The price has dropped yet again this morning and now sits at $139, a 49% discount from its usual $274. This is the lowest price ever for this mode

The upcoming iOS 26 includes several new features I'm looking forward to running on my iPhone, from the Liquid Glass interface to new ways to cut down on unwanted calls and messages. But one feature I can't wait to turn on will hopefully be something I can forget about. A new Adaptive Power setting promises to extend battery power by selectively applying energy savings in small ways that add up. It's currently available in the iOS 26 developer beta and is expected to ship in the fall. See also:

Roomba J7 Plus (Out of stock): Roomba may still be the most recognized name in robot vacuums, and that's not only because it was a pioneer in the space, but because it continues to make very good robot vacuums.

Wi-Fi in the US Could Get Worse Under Trump's New Law

The Federal Communications Commission has regained its authority to hold spectrum auctions and could use that power to take spectrum away from Wi-Fi networks and license it to mobile carriers AT&T, Verizon, and T-Mobile. As we previously wrote, the Senate budget bill pitched by Ted Cruz (R-Texas) called for at least 800 MHz to be auctioned and allowed part of it to be taken from the 6 GHz band that's being used to boost speeds in the new generation of Wi-Fi networks.

New Research Bolsters Freaky Theory That Earth Sits in a Giant Cosmic Void

Images of the cosmos, such as the James Webb Space Telescope’s deep space snapshot, make space look chock-full of stuff. In the grand scheme of things, it is, but all those stars, galaxies, planets, and other celestial objects may not be as uniformly distributed as photos make them look. The fact is, space is likely peppered with bubbles of relative emptiness, and some astronomers believe we’re sitting inside of one.

‘The Institute’ Is a Solid Stephen King Adaptation

Stephen King is easily the most-adapted horror author; his books are so popular, many of the biggest ones have been adapted multiple times. Right now, there’s both a Carrie series and a feature take on The Stand in the works, and Edgar Wright’s The Running Man just dropped its first trailer. With the same titles seemingly caught in Hollywood’s revolving door, it can be tempting to forget King is still regularly publishing new stories.
