Probably the best Google-made Fitbit device around is on sale at its lowest ever price
$67 off (42%) Premium Fitness Tracker with Built-in GPS, Stress Management Tools, Sleep Tracking, 24/7 Heart Rate Monitor, ECG, Blood Oxygen Sensor, Irregular Heart Rhythm Notifications, YouTube Music Controls, Google Maps, Google Wallet, Water Resistant Up to 50 Meters, Color Touchscreen, Up to 7 Days of Battery Life, Porcelain/Silver Color, 6-Month Fitbit Premium Membership Included Buy at Walmart
Yes, Walmart is currently selling brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged units in a Porcelain/Silver color combo at $93, thus beating all previous deals offered by all major US retailers on this particular device, including during events like Black Friday or Prime Day.
Whether or not Google plans to release an upgraded Fitbit Charge 7 anytime soon, the nearly two-year-old Charge 6 remains a smart buy for a certain type of audience at this lower-than-ever price, delivering among others a battery life of up to seven days between charges, super-reliable 24/7 heart rate monitoring, and potentially life-saving ECG technology.
Believe it or not, you can use this little guy to manage your daily stress levels and keep an eye on your blood oxygen too, which are features you'd typically have to pay more than $200 to get on a full-blown smartwatch. Granted, the Fitbit Charge 6 's display can't compare to what something like the Apple Watch Series 10 or Samsung Galaxy Watch 8 offers, but for a "basic" fitness tracker, that's also not bad in terms of either size or resolution, employing premium AMOLED technology to show key information and alerts from your Android handset or iPhone in excellent quality.
I almost can't see how a sequel could possibly improve this value proposition this year or the next, so I definitely wouldn't be surprised if Google "neglects" to roll out a Fitbit Charge 7. Secure your connection now at a bargain price!

Google Pixel Watch 4 will reportedly debut a new side-mounted charging system
A new round of leaks suggests that Google is taking a different approach to charging with the Pixel Watch 4. According to a new report, the upcoming smartwatch will include a redesigned, side-mounted charging system that sets it apart from earlier Pixel Watch models. In this new system, Google has reportedly shifted the charging contacts from the back of the device to the left side, which is the opposite side of the digital crown. Renders show an indentation with two charging pins, and unlike past Pixel Watches, there will be no charging contacts on the back of the device. That space is now occupied by a new array of health sensors, similar to the ones found on the Pixel Watch 3. The design change could offer a more practical benefit. Since the watch will now rest on its side while charging, users will be able to check battery levels more easily when the watch is placed on a desk or nightstand. Reports also suggest that this new charging system may contribute to the Pixel Watch 4 's 25 percent faster charging speeds compared to the previous generation. Beyond convenience, the new side-mounted contacts may play a role in improving repairability. The Pixel Watch 4 is expected to be the first in the lineup to allow repairs, with technicians able to remove the back panel to access internal components. By removing the charging system from the rear casing, Google likely made that process easier to achieve. This new charging dock will reportedly be included in the box, although, consistent with past Pixel Watches, it will not come with a USB-C power adapter. Any standard 5W USB-C adapter will be compatible with the dock. Google is also expected to sell the dock separately on the Google Store, but pricing details have yet to be confirmed. Based on previous models, a starting price of $29.99 seems proprietary chargers often limit user convenience, I do appreciate the idea of a side-mounted dock. In the future, it would be great to see Google offer a dual-purpose charging cable, similar to OnePlus's SuperVOOC system, that can charge both the watch and a phone at once. The Google Pixel Watch 4 is expected to officially launch next month at the Made by Google event, which is taking place on August 20th.

Elon Musk wants to revive Vine but with artificial intelligence
Elon Musk plans to bring back the legendary video-sharing app Vine, but in a way fit for modern times. The revived version of the short-form video platform may be infused with artificial intelligence. The billionaire owner of the social media platform X said in a tweet this Thursday that Vine will return 'in AI form.' Musk didn't share any further details about his plans for the app. When asked for more information by Reuters, X, formerly Twitter, didn't immediately respond. We're bringing back Vine, but in AI form — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 24, 2025 Vine was released in 2013, offering a platform for videos of up to six seconds. The app quickly gained popularity and, at its peak, had over 200 million active users. The success was short-lived as Twitter discontinued the app in 2017, citing commercial viability. After closing the app, Twitter kept its archive available for another two years, but the memory lived on. Now, Vine is remembered as the first king of short-form video. Its six-second looping videos often went viral and essentially set the scene for the success of TikTok. The most prolific type of Vine celebrities were comedians and creatives who managed to fit their ideas in the restrictive format. Some of the celebrities who started on Vine are David Dobrik, Shawn Mendes, and Logan Paul. That's not the first time Musk has hinted at reviving Vine. Back in 2022, just days after purchasing Twitter, Musk reportedly instructed the company's engineers to work on the app. Around that time, Musk published a poll on the topic, which got a response from the YouTube star MrBeast, who said it'd be hilarious if Vine competed with TikTok. Since then, Musk has signaled interest in reviving Vine multiple times. The latest occasions were an April 2024 poll and a response to a tweet in January 2025. In the latter, Musk said his teams 'are looking into it,' as a response to a user's suggestion that it's time to bring back Vine. I'd love to see the return of Vine, especially if the app keeps the six-second restriction. Just like Twitter's original 140-character limit, I think that limit was an essential part of what made the platform so fun and creative. However, I am very sceptical about AI video, and seeing a version of Vine full of AI slop would be the greatest injury to the app's legacy.

Leaked image shows off new iPhone 17 Pro colors, including the orange option
*Image credit — Majin Bu Apple is said to be experimenting with bolder colors on top of the exterior redesign for the upcoming iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. A new image that has just surfaced gives us a look at some of these colors in a real-world environment, including the spiritual successor to Desert Titanium: an orange shade. Four of the possible new colors for the iPhone 17 Pro. | Image credit — Majin Bu The new colors shown in the image include a Titanium Gray, which is reportedly an option that Apple is considering but hasn't finalized yet. Alongside that, there is a really dark color that appears to be black, but the text next to it says that it's blue. It is, kind of. Perhaps Apple will name it Midnight Blue or something similar. The previously leaked orange color is also present, which is a sort of fierier Desert Titanium. In my opinion, it looked a lot better in fan-made renders than it does in real life. Lastly, we can also see a silver option, but orange isn't the only bold choice that Apple is considering this year for the iPhone 17 Pro. Because, not pictured here is a rumored Liquid Glass color option, which takes inspiration from the UI overhaul in iOS 26. According to reports, this new color will reflect differently under various lighting conditions, though it will mostly be a white hue. I think that sounds quite fun, and I'd wager that it will look a lot prettier than the new orange shade. Ultramarine on the iPhone 16 is a stunningly pretty color as well. | Video credit — Apple Of course, aside from new color options, the image shows off the redesigned rear camera island on the iPhone 17 Pro and Pro Max. The iPhone 17 Air will also feature an elongated camera island, though it will be a lot slimmer, and will heavily resemble the Google Pixel 9. If this new design isn't to your liking, however, then the base iPhone 17 will serve you just fine while looking like the base iPhone 16 . Now, all that remains to be seen is whether Samsung will also opt for bolder colors for the Galaxy S26 Ultra. Because, let's be honest, even the online exclusive colors for the Galaxy S25 Ultra look relatively muted.
