On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.
Other deals to consider
Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.

The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.

On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.

You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.

Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet.

Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched.

Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have.

But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.

Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.
Other deals to consider
Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.
Other deals to consider
Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.

This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.

Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.

While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe. M …
You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.

Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet.

Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched.

Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have.

But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.

Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.
Other deals to consider
Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.
Other deals to consider
Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.

This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe.

You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things.

Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years.

Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.

Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

Normally $40 each, a two pack of 45W Anker Nano Chargers is currently $55.98 ($24 off) from Anker when you use coupon code WS24QCL740 at checkout. These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
If a dad in your life is always craving a good cup of coffee, AeroPress is offering 20 percent off select brewers and bundles for Father’s Day, including the standard Clear and Colors line and the Clear XL, when you use the code FATHER20 at checkout. You can also save $50 on a Barista Bundle that includes a manual grinder with titanium burrs.
On June 10th, the German container ship Posen docked in Los Angeles after a two-week voyage from Shanghai. As Valve watcher Brad Lynch notes, it was almost certainly carrying the first mass production shipments of the Steam Frame, Valve’s new gaming headset.
Import records show that Valve’s distribution partner Ceva offloaded nearly 32 metric tons of « Virtual Reality Devices » on Valve’s behalf – or roughly 13 tons of actual product, after you subtract the roughly 3,700 kilogram weight of five 40-foot shipping containers.

If you’re thinking about upgrading your phone, « the best time was yesterday, » according to Nothing CEO and co-founder Carl Pei, echoing a message we heard during MWC. As Android Authority reports, Pei said in a post on X that the RAM shortage has already impacted Nothing’s less expensive mid-range phone: « For Phone 4A , memory costs doubled between when we decided to build the device and when it launched. They’ve doubled again since. » He warned that « Phone prices are going up, and they’ll keep going up into next year. »
Pei says RAM can now account for over 50 percent of the cost of a new phone. Nothing’s just the latest phone maker to warn …

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet.

Elon Musk’s SpaceX IPO will probably make him the richest person to ever walk the planet. And while his mountain of horrible personal conduct could fill multiple books, one fact in particular stands out: A year ago, Musk’s actions directly led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people. He did it knowingly. And, worse – gleefully.
This is not a serious person, but his abuse of the world is deadly serious. In the first months of President Donald Trump’s second term, the Musk-led Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) destroyed the US Agency for International Development, whose mission was a boon to public health around the globe. M …
You’d be forgiven for thinking this day would never come. Siri has spent a decade and half somewhere between « sort of useful at a few things » and « utterly disastrous, why did I even try, can it honestly not even set a timer. » But the wildest thing just happened: Apple put out a new version of Siri, and it actually seems to be pretty good.
On this episode of The Vergecast, David and Nilay talk about their early experiences with Siri AI, and what it means for users, and the rest of the AI industry, for the iPhone’s built-in assistant to be good enough at most things. There’s very little about Siri AI that feels bleeding edge or brand new, but …
Elon Musk is now officially the world’s first trillionaire. That is a colossal amount of wealth (and by proxy, power) for one individual to have. Its scale – a thousand times more than a billion – is difficult to fathom for those of us who aren’t among the 3,363 billionaires that currently exist in our world. But let’s try to comprehend it anyway.
The most frequently cited comparison is time. If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years – to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting in the Pa …
Elon Musk’s net worth has passed the trillion-dollar mark after SpaceX’s IPO. His net worth, which was hovering around $800 billion before the IPO, includes the value of his 4.8 billion shares in SpaceX, along with his wealth from his other companies, like Tesla. Shares of SPCX opened at $150 and have remained well above the $138 benchmark that gives Musk a 13-figure net worth.
SpaceX combined Musk’s rocket, AI, and social media platforms earlier this year, and said in its S-1 that its goal is to « build the systems and technologies necessary to make life multiplanetary, to understand the true nature of the universe, and to extend the light …

Our early testing has already shown that Siri AI knows when to shut up, and that’s very much by design. In an interview with Mostly Human, Craig Federighi said Apple’s new Siri won’t act all sycophantic like chatbots made by OpenAI, Google, and others.
« As you may know, if you use many of the existing chatbots, they’re really focused on engagement to a large degree, » said Federighi who is responsible for software at Apple. « And sycophancy, right? They kind of want to pull you in. They might encourage you to reveal things about yourself, and then use that as a basis to establish a connection. »
Amazon’s rolling out a free software update for Echo Hub devices that gives the home screen a much-needed update to the interface it launched with in 2024. It had already added Alex Plus AI support, but the new interface has a cleaner, fully customizable layout that fits more smart home info and controls on the screen than the previous version.
The Echo Hub is also getting access to Ring AI’s Video Search feature that lets you use natural language to search through your smart home camera footage, as well as Alexa Plus summaries of detected camera events.
These are the five new features Amazon highlighted for the Echo Hub:
The platform-agnostic Logitech MX Master 3S wireless mouse is discounted to $89.99 at Amazon ($30 off), matching the best price we’ve seen so far this year. While it may look like a somewhat ordinary mouse, it has a unique second scroll wheel near the left thumb that’s surprisingly useful for horizontal scrolling in spreadsheets. You can connect the mouse to Windows, MacOS, ChromeOS, and Linux systems using either Bluetooth or the included USB-A 2.4GHz wireless adapter.
Logitech MX Master 3S
The MX Master 3S is a favorite among many Verge staff members because of its comfort and customization. The mouse’s thumb rest and curved shape allow you to grip it comfortably, and its side and top button can be remapped within the Logi Options Plus app, which can save you time. The MX Master 3S can be connected via Bluetooth, via its included 2.4GHz receiver, or wired with its USB-C cable.
This mouse has six buttons in all, and they’re impressively quiet and customizable through Logitech’s software. The company claims its USB-C rechargeable battery lasts for about 70 days of use, though it ran down slightly faster than that in our review. It’s not really an issue, though, since you can use it while it charges.
The newer $119.99 Logitech MX Master 4 has haptic feedback that triggers when you press the thumb rest. It’s cool, but the feature (plus a few other minor improvements to the MX Master formula) might not be worth paying $30 more to get.

You can save on a big set of outdoor security cameras ahead of Prime Day. Amazon has a five-pack of Blink cameras with a video doorbell included that’s marked down to $166.99. The bundle includes a Blink Battery Doorbell 2K+, five Blink Outdoor 2K+ cameras, and a Blink Sync Module Core. The doorbell is typically $70, and each camera generally retails between $80 and $100, so you’re saving at least $200 by grabbing them all in the set.
The video doorbell captures video in 1920 x 1920 with a 140- degree field of view, and can last for months on three AA batteries. On the other hand, each outdoor camera shoots at 2560 x 1440 with a 135 degree field of view, and Blink claims that two AA batteries can power a camera for up to two years. Both the doorbell and outdoor cameras feature color night vision in low light and two-way audio.
One important thing to note is that the Sync Module included with this bundle is the basic Core version. If you want to save video locally, you’ll need to upgrade to the $49.99 Sync Module 2. Alternatively, you could pay for a cloud storage plan that starts at $11.99 per month. It includes video storage for up to 60 days. The free plan only supports live viewing and motion notifications.

These compact chargers have foldable prongs that tuck away neatly for storage, and a handy display with a cute little animated face that shows charging status.
The Marshall Emberton II Bluetooth speaker is discounted at Amazon to $92 ($28 off). The stylish speaker has a rugged IP67 rating, enough juice for up to 30 hours of playback on a single charge, and the company claims it provides 360-degree sound. You can pair multiple Emberton II speakers with each other, or other Marshall speakers, like the Middleton, for a stereo experience.
