Dyson is once again expanding its line of personal care products with a device that focuses on your teeth instead of your hair. As the name implies, the $499 CameraJet is the first electric toothbrush to incorporate a camera into the brush head. Available starting today in ceramic blue or ceramic pink color options, it can let you inspect the inside of your mouth by livestreaming video over Wi-Fi to your phone. But the camera also works alongside an AI algorithm to detect and blast the gaps between your teeth with mouthwash. So while you’re brushing, the CameraJet simultaneously takes…

Luxury vehicles have always promised more than transportation—they’ve sold exclusivity, prestige, and the confidence that their badge alone justified a premium price. Electric vehicles are beginning to challenge that formula. As technology becomes the primary selling point, even iconic luxury brands are discovering that heritage isn’t enough to support six-figure price tags. One recent pricing decision didn’t simply make an expensive EV more affordable; it exposed how quickly perceived value can disappear when market demand fails to match ambitious pricing. For buyers, it’s a cautionary tale about depreciation that extends far beyond a single manufacturer. Luxury EV Buyers Are Rewriting…

Roland just unveiled the FP-40 digital piano, which has built-in Wi-Fi. It’s not uncommon to see pianos that connect via Bluetooth, but Wi-Fi is incredibly rare. I’ve seen some instruments that allow for the inclusion of Wi-Fi adapters, but this one goes a step further. It simply connects to a home network, like any other gadget. The primary use case here is for teaching apps and related software. Pianos with Bluetooth, like the well-regarded Casio PX-S7000, connect to proprietary teaching apps, but Wi-Fi is much faster and should offer a more seamless experience. To that end, Roland is also releasing…

UPDATE: 2026/08/31 16:11 EST BY SEAN MCMANUS The Cheapest New EV Can Drive 2.62 Times Further Than The MX-30 We added a section with details about two cheap new EVs that are more powerful and have more range for less than the MX-30’s MSRP. Back in 2021, we went to Orange County, California, for the media drive event of Mazda’s first all-electric vehicle, the 2022 Mazda MX-30. A bunch of us rolled into town with expectations. For a start, it’s a Mazda with rear suicide doors, and that should bode well for a little fun quirkiness mixed with the seriousness…

Want ultimate luxury without ultra-luxury prices? Most buyers head to the used market, where options like a 2010 Bentley Continental GT go for just $32,000 – less than the price of a new Honda Pilot. But early Bentleys are everywhere in places like Miami or LA, and their maintenance costs are brutal. Instead, buy a Polestar 1. It’s a rare,609-horsepower, carbon fiber coupe that now sells for $58k (down from $155,000 when original) and almost nobody knows it exists. It’s also gorgeous, outrageously powerful, and guaranteed to turn heads where common luxury coupes blend into the background. All specs have…

It was just a month ago, when Ford was discussing its second-quarter financial results, that the automaker called out a subsegment that is gaining stature in Dearborn: enthusiast off-roaders. Highlighting their impact on the bottom line, CEO Jim Farley said 25% of Ford’s second-quarter sales were tied to off-road vehicles or trim levels. Farley said at the time that Raptor and Tremor off-road variants of the Bronco and F-150, for instance, are attracting new customers who are younger, more affluent, and more geographically diverse. “And we are investing to grow our leadership in this space,” Farley said on a call…

The biggest car news and reviews, no BS Our free daily newsletter sends the stories that really matter directly to you, every weekday. News from the front lines of the never-ending war between cars and rodents: Marmots are a menace (in general, apparently) and are tragically addicted to antifreeze. People who park in marmot country have taken to making giant tarp diapers for their cars to keep the critters from chewing into coolant lines. It is an unfortunate situation all around, but it makes for a pretty funny visual. People driving around the Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks areas…

Automotive Nissan is moving faster than expected to get its next-generation Rogue Hybrid into U.S. showrooms, and the timing makes plenty of sense. The all-new 2027 Rogue Hybrid with Nissan’s third-generation e-Power system is now slated to begin arriving in November, several months ahead of the company’s previously accelerated schedule. Supply will be tight at first, with early vehicles imported from Japan and dealers reportedly receiving only a small number of examples before inventory builds in early 2027. The urgency comes down to competition. Hybrid compact crossovers have become a major part of the market, particularly as the…
