CNET/Caroline Igo The electric toothbrushes in this section weren't my favorites, but they have some qualities worth mentioning. One of these might be the right choice for you, so we felt it was worthwhile to include them. Oral-B iO2 Since I love the Oral-B iO Series 5 so much (it’s been my main toothbrush for over two years now), I was sent the new Oral-B iO2 electric toothbrush to test. It has the same brushing power and feel as the Series 5. It has three cleaning modes, a pressure sensor a

Maxon puts the Forger sculpting app for iPad on life support

Maxon is sunsetting the Forger sculpting app for iPad to focus on the more comprehensive ZBrush iPadOS app it introduced last year. Forger will be removed from the App Store on September 10th, according to a message on Maxon’s website, and the app will be placed in a “Limited Maintenance Mode” that won’t receive any future updates, bug fixes, or changes.

The 9 Best Dyson Vacuums (2025), Tested and Reviewed

What About the PencilVac? Courtesy of Dyson The new Dyson PencilVac promises to be Dyson's slimmest vacuum yet, but it won't be available in the US until sometime in 2026.

Cheaper Than Dyson, This Shark Hair Dryer and Styler Hits a New Low for Early Prime Day

Dyson has been a familiar name for years with its prestige dryers and stylers, but the monopoly doesn’t exist anymore. In America, Shark has also made an appearance as a strong contender with a product that looks like the Dyson in both form and function but costs a fraction of the price. With Amazon’s first Prime Day sale, the Shark HD430 air styling and drying system can now be obtained for just $249, down from its usual $350. That is a 29% discount, which is approximately half of Dyson’s coun

3 Best Thermal Brush, Tested and Reviewed by WIRED (2025)

You've seen thermal brushes before, maybe touted as a blow-out brush or an infrared brush. The best thermal brush for you will recreate a blow-out type of look on your dry hair—different than a blow-dry brush, which is designed for wet hair but has a similar look. It reminds me of how I would use a curler in my youth to straighten while adding a little body to the roots and a little curl to the ends. If that's your preferred hairstyle too, then these are the devices for you. Thermal brushes use

The 6 Best Blow-Dry Brushes (2025): Round, Oval, and More

What About Thermal Brushes? You might have seen two different kinds of brushes while shopping that promise blowout results. In this guide, the term blow-dry brush is exclusively used for devices that blow hot air out of the bristles onto wet hair to dry and style your hair. Meanwhile, devices for dry hair are called infrared or thermal brushes, as they use infrared heat instead of hot air to style your hair in a smooth blowout.

This 20-in-1 accessory kit is my new favorite tech essential (and it's only $13)

ZDNET's key takeaways I tested a 20-in-1 gadget cleaning tool, which is available from Amazon for $13. The kit is compact, the components are all quality items that can be reused many times, and the kit contains a variety of brushes and cleaners. A larger container for lens cleaning fluid would have been useful. $12.59 at Amazon I dare you to take a close look at your keyboard. If it's like mine or the systems I find myself pawing, then it's going to be dirt, hair, and crumb-filled apocalypse
