Microsoft is holding a OneDrive digital event on October 8th that will cover the “latest innovations in AI across Microsoft 365 and OneDrive.” It’s the second annual event after Microsoft held a similar stream last year to introduce a big new design update for the cloud storage service, AI Copilot integration, and lots more. This year, Microsoft is promising to announce “what’s coming for Copilot in OneDrive,” alongside enhancements to the OneDrive mobile app and an “improved photos experience.” The event will also cover OneDrive features across work and personal accounts. The OneDrive digital event will be hosted on Microsoft Teams and will include the ability to ask the OneDrive product team questions about the cloud storage service....

If you’re looking for a nice discount on a great outdoor smart home camera right now (and you don’t mind Google’s ecosystem), look no further than the Google Nest Cam with floodlight. It’s on sale for $209 ($70 off) at Amazon or $209.99 at Best Buy.

The next generation of Bluetooth could make it easier to track down lost tech. On Tuesday, the Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) announced the release of Bluetooth 6.0, which includes a new precision tracking feature that could improve the Find My networks from companies like Apple, Google, and Tile. Bluetooth is the protocol that controls wireless communication between devices. The Bluetooth SIG, which oversees the standard, periodically releases updates with new capabilities. Bluetooth’s last major update took place in 2016. Bluetooth 6.0 introduces a feature called Channel Sounding, which can determine the distance between two devices with “centimeter-level accuracy,” according to the Bluetooth SIG. To do this, it uses...

Hisense's middle-rung QLED TV packs a powerful picture at a very nice price.

We’ve been talking a lot about the future of the web on Decoder and across The Verge lately, and one big problem keeps coming up: huge chunks of the web keep going offline. In a lot of meaningful ways, large portions of the web are dying. Servers go offline, software upgrades break links and pages, and companies go out of business — the web isn’t static, and that means sometimes parts of it simply vanish. It’s not just the “really old” internet from the ’90s or early 2000s that’s at risk. A recent study from the Pew Research Center found that 38 percent of all links from 2013 are no longer accessible. That’s more than a third of the collected media, knowledge, and online culture from just a decade ago — gone. Pew calls it “digital...

At IFA 2024, Govee revealed launch dates for a veritable rat king of Matter-enabled decorative lighting. These include smart string lights, curtain lights, and Govee’s first icicle-style smart lights. The company also has two sets of strip lights to follow up its M1 Matter strip, and... listen, it’s a lot of lights. ‘Tis (sort of, almost) the season, so let’s start with Govee’s new holiday lights. The company says all are IP65 waterproof-rated, so they should be good for indoor or outdoor installation, and they’re all Matter-compatible, meaning you can use them with any smart home ecosystem that uses the one smart home standard to rule them all. All are coming to the US and the EU.

The partnership announced by Samsung, Qualcomm, and Google last year is developing a pair of mixed reality smart glasses that link to the wearer’s smartphone, according to Qualcomm CEO Cristiano Amon. “It’s going to be a new product,” Amon told CNBC in a recent interview. “What I really expect to come out of this partnership, I want everyone that has a phone to go buy companion glasses to go along with it,” said Amon. “I think we need to get to the point that the glasses are going to be no different than wearing regular glasses or sunglasses. And then with that, we can get scale.” Information about the project has been extremely slim since the XR partnership was announced back in February 2023. While the companies never specified what...

With the ability to lift itself up to get over room transitions as high as 40mm, fluffy rugs, and other possible obstacles, Roborock’s new Qrevo Curv could be a sign that the stair-climbing robot vacuum is almost here. To be clear, Roborock hasn’t said this, but based on how fast this company — and others — are innovating in this space, it feels like we’re really not that far away. SharkNinja also announced a new robot vacuum with lifting capabilities this week, and the other companies are likely not far behind. Whether we need stair-climbing robovacs is a question I’m not sure I have the answer to yet.
