When mobile gamers rely solely on touchscreens, they face numerous challenges. Swipes miss their target at the worst possible times, fingers slip during frantic sequences, and sophisticated games require more dexterity than a flat glass surface can provide. The Razer Kishi V3, priced at $74.99 after clipping the on-page coupon (was $100), is a basic solution that clamps onto your phone and provides tactile controls designed for serious play.

Astronomers released an image this week that pulls viewers straight into the dynamic core of Messier 77 (M77). Located 45 million light-years away in the constellation Cetus, this barred spiral galaxy offers a clear target for study thanks to its relative closeness and the range of activity packed inside its structure. Captured entirely in mid-infrared light by the James Webb Space Telescope’s specialized instrument, the view highlights details that ordinary light cannot reach.
Genesis AI just released a new AI model called GENE-26.5 that lets robots handle everyday objects with the same ease and precision people use. In tech demos released this week, one robot cracks an egg with one hand without spilling a drop, then uses both hands to chop tomatoes and stir a pan during a full meal. Another sorts four different items into bins using just its fingers, while a third solves a Rubik’s Cube in mid-air with quick wrist turns and steady grips.
Tito from Macho Nacho Productions recently received one of the first Game Bub units and put it through its paces. The Game Boy-inspired device comes from a small team at Second Bedroom in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and anyone can now preorder an assembled version for $269 through Crowd Supply with shipping expected in early July.
CADLY poured months of design effort into creating an electric turbofan model that anyone can produce at home. Files sit ready for download from the maker’s own site or the Printables page, and a standard 3D printer handles every major piece. The finished unit draws direct inspiration from the CFM56 engines found on Airbus A320 airliners, yet it runs on basic electronics and a small motor instead of jet fuel.
People who passed on last year’s Pro model now face a stronger case for jumping in when the iPhone 18 Pro arrives in September. Reports from the past few days paint a clear picture of steady improvements across the board rather than flashy overhauls, and every change seems aimed at solving small daily frustrations that add up over time.
Ferrari built the F355 in the 1990s as a pure driver’s machine with a screaming V8 and timeless lines. Evoluto took that foundation and refined every inch without losing the original character. The result sits ready for a short list of owners who want analog excitement tuned for today. Development stretched across years of careful work. Engineers started with a donor F355 and validated every factory specification before touching a single part.
Digital claw machines let you grab virtual prizes with a few clicks, yet real garages still demand ladders, stretching, and sore backs every time something sits on a high shelf. Alex of Hobby Built decided to change that equation in his basement workshop. He designed and built a three-axis gantry robot that retrieves and returns any one of 24 heavy storage totes with nothing more than a tap on a screen.
Gamers looking for dependable frame rates without breaking the wallet will find the Acer Nitro V ANV15-52-586Z, priced at $699.99 (was $800), to be an excellent choice. This 15.6-inch laptop is an excellent middle-grounder, combining an Intel Core i5-13420H processor with an nVidia GeForce RTX 4050 graphics card in a configuration that prioritizes everyday playability over flashy features.
NASA’s Curiosity had spent years gradually ascending the slopes of Mount Sharp inside Gale Crater. On April 25, the rover drilled into a rock known as Atacama, which was about a foot and a half across and six inches thick, weighing over thirty pounds. The drill sank in neatly enough to collect the sample the scientists need. The rover then pulled its arm back. The entire rock came with it.
