Japan is a place of towering mountains, bustling cities, and boundless highways that want to be explored.
Nintendo is constantly discovering new ways to incorporate elements of its games into our daily lives. After turned the Alarmo alarm clock into a platforming adventure every morning, the business is now selling a small plastic flower with a mouth, and one that talks no less. This real-life Talking Flower draws inspiration from Super Mario Bros Wonder, where these joyful conversational flowers appear in stages and provide strange ideas and insights.
The new Masters of the Universe movie, produced by Amazon MGM Studios and Mattel Studios, will hit theaters on June 5, 2026. Travis Knight, the same director who brought us Bumblebee, is in charge of this live-action adaptation of the beloved 1980s toy line and animated series, so we have high hopes for this film. Nicholas Galitzine plays both Prince Adam and He-Man, while Jared Leto demonstrates his ability to bring genuine evil to the screen as the iconic Skeletor.
The NexPhone appears to be more than simply a smartphone to say the least. Built by Nex Computer, the people behind all those docks that change phones into laptops over the years, this gadget comes with Android for day-to-day use, a full Linux environment when more power is required, and Windows 11 for the most intensive of jobs. For $549, it provides a lot of adaptability that typically requires several laptops or desktops, all in a tough tiny container that still fits in your pocket.
The SC-01 arrives in Europe as a compact electric sports car that is simply designed to provide an enjoyable driving experience.

Fiber optic lamps are best known to create their own little glittering lights in a room, transforming it into a magical place. Many people remember them as a quiet novelty, like something you’d find on a child’s nightstand, but one project takes that quiet glow and amps it up to a whole new level, transforming a harmless bedside companion into something that commands a little respect.
The Logitech M196, priced at $9.99 (was $14.99), exists because people know there are times when a proper mouse is a whole lot better than a trackpad, especially when you’re stuck away from your desk at some dodgy internet cafe, on an airport, in a hotel room, or fighting for space on a cramped airplane tray. Trackpads just don’t cut it in these situations and can often turn into the route of frustration. A mouse like this one steps in, unsung hero that it is, and solves the problem nicely without drawing any attention to itself.
Sony has built a strong reputation in the audio world over the years, though wireless earbuds have never really been the one category where the company shines. The Japanese company is now taking a dramatic step into the open-ear arena with a new earbud design: the LinkBuds Clip, a set of earbuds that clip onto the outside of your ear rather than sitting inside it, allowing you to hear both the music and the world around you.
Gadget Industry wanted to build the world’s smallest Bluetooth speaker, so they began by disassembling a regular module to see how small they could make things. To begin, they ripped the antenna directly off a 3W Bluetooth amp module, then had to rebuild the entire thing by hand after stacking the components. This small electronics stack is slapped onto the back of an 18mm x 14mm 3W speaker driver. A TP4056 charging module received the same treatment, being disassembled and reassembled to fit the small space required.
