| January 6, 2023. National Technology Day! A little on the nose for us? Maybe, but let's use it as a reason to reflect on how much technology has changed not only our lives, but the world around us. Try to only focus on the good parts. | | | ⏰ Today's Big Stories... in 30 Seconds | | | Today We Watched, Read, and Listened to (so you don't have to): | | 375 articles, 15 podcasts, 16 press releases, 360 tweets, and 15 YouTube videos | | | 1. Samsung's New Smart Hub Doubles as a Wireless Charging Pad | | Samsung's new SmartThings Station is a robust offering in the smart home hub space. Sure, you can use it to control other smart devices around the house, but its biggest draw is that it's also a 15W wireless charging pad. All that for $60? We'll definitely be picking one up when it arrives in February. | | 2. Ring's New Car Cam Keeps a Comprehensive Eye on Vehicles | | The Ring Car Cam is exactly what it sounds like: a security camera for your vehicles. With dual-facing cameras, voice activation features, and real-time phone alerts, it's sure to add some much needed safety to your commutes. Pre-order one now for $200 ahead of its official release next month. | | 3. Fitness+ Update Adds Beyoncé, More Workouts, and Meditations | | Apple's Fitness+ is getting new workouts, trainers, artists, and more in a big content update next week. From a new kickboxing total-body regimen, to two new trainers, to new music from Beyoncé, the Foo Fighters, and Bad Bunny, there's sure to be enough new stuff to get your body moving. Have fun! | | | Data: Apple, Business of Apps | | | Apple has a lot of services—iCloud, Apple Music, Apple TV+, Apple Fitness+, etc—and people are responding positively. In fact, Apple is well on its way to having a million subscribers across all of its services. It's basically guaranteed if it keeps adding content people really want. | | | 🔥 Today's Hot Deal | | We respect the amount of confidence it takes to use a Fire HD 10 tablet without a case, but you should really get one. They're currently down to $35.99 on Amazon and come in a variety of colors to suit your tastes. Better safe than sorry, right? | | | | | "A moment of silence for the iPhone mini." —Bob Schulties, Senior Editor | | | Some of the best headphones around | | Are the AirPods Max incredibly expensive? Yes. Is it also a good pair of over-the-ear headphones? Also yes. And if you're already strutting around with an iPhone, Apple Watch, MacBook, etc., then why not add the Max to your arsenal the next time you're looking for new headphones? Plus, they just look good. | | | How long are you willing to wait? | | Hope you didn't get comfortable streaming Marvel movies on Disney+ soon after they hit theaters, because it seems like Disney is slowly pivoting away from that with Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Back to the theaters we go! | | |
