Last year Devialet, the French luxury audio company known for mighty speakers with even mightier price tags, launched its first pair of earbuds.

If you don’t want a smartwatch but you do want a smart watch, then Withings is probably your best option. It’s spent the last decade producing classy hybrids which resemble old-fashioned Swiss watches to the untrained eye.

It’s been years and years since the bleeding edge of the smartphone world was truly exciting.

Newly unsealed court filings reveal how much data Xwitter has handed over to the January 6 investigation.

Tesla has quietly launched new – much cheaper – Model S and X variants with a shorter quoted range. Standard Range Teslas are around $10,000 less than the base model, but with ranges cut by 80 and 79 miles, respectively.
