This might be the coolest way to charge an Apple Watch

Digital Trends17-06-2025

If you love a touch of nostalgia and have an Apple Watch, then this new charger from Spigen may well appeal.
Joining Spigen's C1 collection featuring accessories inspired by the design of classic Apple products, the Apple Watch Classic C1 charger sports the familiar look of Apple's iconic iMac G3, which shook up the PC market when it launched in 1998.

The $35 device is designed to house your Apple Watch charging puck, which fits snugly in the G3's 'display' after you've fed the wire through the back. It even features the computer's slightly slanted display angle for a comfortable view of the watch face.
The charger comes in four different colors that match some of the options offered by the original iMac G3, namely Tangerine, Graphite, Ruby, and the original Bondi Blue.
The Apple Watch Classic C1 charger is compatible with the Apple Watch Ultra (49mm), Apple Watch series 10/9/8/SE2/7/6/SE/5/4, AirPods 4 (ANC), and AirPods Pro 2, but just to be clear, the actual charging puck is not part of the package.
Apple's iMac G3 arrived at a time when PCs came in one flavor — beige and boring. Indeed, its colorful design signaled that it was more than a computer. It was a promise that tech could be, well, joyful.
The all-in-one iMac G3 proved popular with customers looking for something a little different, and its subsequent success played a pivotal role in Apple's resurgence after years of financial struggles.
Recognizing its iconic status and keen to highlight its significance in design and technology history, the Smithsonian Institution added the iMac G3 to its collection.
The computer sold more than six million units between 1998 and 2003, cementing the foundations of the iMac, which continues as a product line today — albeit with a starkly different look. And now it's inspired the design of an Apple Watch charger, too.

Nvidia Will Be Wall Street's First $6 Trillion Company, According to One Highly Optimistic Analyst

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is viewed as a generational technology that can meaningfully improve corporate growth. A handful of catalysts has one Wall Street analyst forecasting a runup in Nvidia stock to $250. However, this new Street-high price target overlooks a number of tangible headwinds. 10 stocks we like better than Nvidia › Roughly three decades ago, the advent and proliferation of the internet began changing corporate America forever. Although it took many years before businesses figured out how to optimize their internet usage to maximize their margins and profits, it became a game-changing technology that helped companies reach new customers. For 30 years, Wall Street and investors have been waiting for the next technological leap that could catapult corporate growth. After a long wait, artificial intelligence (AI) looks to be the answer. With AI, software and systems are given the capacity to make split-second decisions without human assistance. It's a broad-reaching technology that the analysts at PwC believe can increase global gross domestic product by a whopping 26% come 2030. While a laundry list of businesses has benefited from the AI revolution, none has reaped the rewards of this technological leap forward more than semiconductor titan Nvidia (NASDAQ: NVDA). Since the end of 2022, Nvidia's market cap has catapulted from $360 billion to an all-time closing high of $3.76 trillion, as of June 25. But according to one highly optimistic Wall Street analyst, the stock market's AI darling is just warming up and on its way to a greater than $6 trillion valuation. To be fair, buy ratings are a dime a dozen when it comes to Nvidia. As of June, 66 Wall Street analysts had issued a rating on Nvidia, with a combined 58 listing it as the equivalent of a strong buy or buy. That compares with just one sell rating. However, the June 25 update from Loop Capital analyst John Donovan stands out from the crowd for one particular reason: His and his firm's price target is head and shoulders above everyone else's. Donovan lifted Loop Capital's price target for Nvidia from $175 per share to $250. If Nvidia's share count stays static, we're talking about a $6.1 trillion market cap if Donovan's issued price target is achieved. Nvidia is already the undisputed leader in graphics processing units (GPUs) deployed in AI-accelerated data centers. The company's Hopper (H100) and successor Blackwell GPUs have consistently been backlogged due to overwhelming demand. With demand for AI-GPUs handily outpacing their supply, Nvidia has been able to charge a premium for its hardware, which in turn has sent its gross margin to north of 70%. But Donovan only sees this dominance building. In his note to investors that explained Loop Capital's Street-high price target, Donovan pointed to Nvidia shipping an estimated 6.5 million GPUs this year and 7.5 million next year, with average selling prices for these GPUs topping $40,000. For context, Nvidia has enjoyed a 100% to 300% pricing premium over its AI-GPU direct rivals. More specifically, in speaking with various cloud-service providers, Donovan anticipates that an uptick in data center spending from governments, midsize cloud providers, and startup companies can lead to the next wave of supercharged growth for Nvidia. For instance, CoreWeave's purchase of 250,000 Hopper chips is the perfect example of startups angling to capitalize on the presumed insatiable demand for compute capacity. The other factor working in Nvidia's favor is that it's been able to grow into its valuation over the last year. Given the company's torrid sales and profit growth, Nvidia is trading at a forward-year earnings multiple of only 27 for fiscal 2027, which will end in January 2027. If Loop Capital's dart throw proves accurate, Nvidia can tip the scales as Wall Street's first $4 trillion, $5 trillion, and $6 trillion business. While there's no disputing Nvidia's monopoly-like market share of GPUs being deployed in AI-accelerated data centers, there are a couple of tangible headwinds Donovan appears to be overlooking that can send Nvidia stock in the opposite direction. Arguably the biggest issue for Nvidia is that every game-changing technology and innovation needs ample time to mature, and we're not at that point yet with artificial intelligence. Including the advent of the internet in the mid-1990s, there hasn't been a next-big-thing trend in three decades that's escaped a bubble-bursting event early in its expansion. The fact that most businesses aren't generating a positive return on their AI investments, nor have they optimized their existing AI solutions, suggests that investors have grossly overestimated the early-innings adoption rate and utility of this technology. This bodes poorly for Nvidia stock over the short run. It's also impossible to overlook growing competitive pressure. Don't get me wrong, CEO Jensen Huang's aggressive innovation timeline, which will bring a new advanced GPU to market annually, should have no trouble keeping Nvidia in the lead when it comes to compute potential. But there's more to data center infrastructure than just speed. It can be argued that Nvidia's biggest competitive edge has been the persistent scarcity of AI-GPUs. But with Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing ramping up its chip-on-wafer-on-substrate capacity and Advanced Micro Devices upping its production of Instinct series AI-accelerating chips, direct competition is growing. What's more, many of Nvidia's top customers by net sales are internally developing GPUs to use in their data centers. Even though this internally developed hardware trails Nvidia's Hopper and Blackwell in terms of compute potential, it's notably cheaper and more readily accessible (i.e., not backlogged). Internally developed chips could easily take up valuable data-center real estate, delay future upgrade cycles, and pressure Nvidia's gross margin. Lastly, Donovan's research overlooks the sustained priciness of Nvidia stock relative to its trailing-12-month (TTM) sales. Over the past three decades, megacap companies on the leading edge a next-big-thing trend have historically topped out at TTM price-to-sales (P/S) ratios of roughly 30 to 43. Even Nvidia topped out at a TTM P/S multiple of just over 42 last summer. Although the company's rapidly expanding sales has brought this multiple down, it's still tipping the scales at a P/S ratio of almost 26. That's well over double other market-leading "Magnificent Seven" stocks, and history strongly suggests it's not sustainable.

Roborock Prime Day deals: Affordable and powerful, the Qrevo and Q Series robot vacuums can do it all

Summer is here! But as much as we'd like to spend every weekend outdoors and enjoy the warm weather, the one thing that often gets in the way of exciting plans is tedious chores. Roborock has at least some of this busy work taken care of with its new Q Series and Qrevo robot vacuums. Roborock's current releases, which include the Roborock Q7 M5+, the Q10 S5+, the QV 35A, and the Qrevo S5V, will continue to be available at special introductory prices during Prime Day. Here's everything you need to know. Roborock Q7 M5+ – Effective and affordable smart cleaning The Roborock Q7 M5+ is a compact yet powerful robot vacuum, making it an ideal choice for small to medium-sized apartments or townhouses. The robot's smaller diameter means you can tuck it away in any corner of your house, and it will effectively clean hard-to-reach areas, like under the bed, side tables, and more. One of the best features of the Q7 M5+ is its carpet cleaning capabilities. While other similarly priced competition aren't as effective or tend to avoid carpets entirely, the Q7 M5+'s 10,000 Pa of suction power allows it to collect dust, debris, and hair from deep within carpets. And if you're worried about all that hair causing tangles and interrupting a cleaning cycle, Roborock has that covered. The Q7 M5+ features brushes with an anti-tangle design, including the JawScrapers main brush and a 0% hair-tangling side brush, designed to resist hair wrapping and tangling completely. Yes, that includes pet hair, even from long-haired breeds. With fewer cleaning interruptions, your robot stays ready with minimal effort. Of course, the Roborock Q7 M5+ is equally effective on non-carpet areas as well. With the vacuum and mop working simultaneously, the mop pad picks up anything the vacuum might miss, ensuring pristine, spotless floors. And with three water flow settings, you can use the robot to handle tough stains with ease. LiDAR makes navigation easy, with real-time mapping creating optimal cleaning paths. It can detect tricky areas and automatically create no-go zones to provide a seamless experience. And if you're in a multi-storey condo or townhouse, you'll love that it can save maps for multiple floors. Once it's done cleaning, you also don't have to go through the hassle of emptying the dustbin each and every time. With the self-emptying RockDock Plus dock housing a 2.7L dust bag, you can go up to 7 weeks without needing to empty it. Roborock Q10 S5+ – Perfect for households with kids and pets If you're looking for a completely automated cleaning experience with no manual intervention required, the Roborock Q10 S5+ is the one for you. It takes everything the Q7 M5+ has to offer to the next level, providing a better, hands-free, and more effective clean. There are some similarities, though. Like its more affordable sibling, the Q10 S5+ features 10,000 Pa of suction power, making it equally effective at cleaning pet hair and maintaining carpets. And like the Q7 M5+, you'll also receive the JawScrapper main brush and anti-tangle side brush, ensuring 0% tangling. You won't have to worry about interrupted cleaning cycles and manually detangling the brushes, even if your pet is still shedding its winter coat. And like the Q7, the Q10 S5+ also comes with the RockDock Plus docking station, giving you up to 7 weeks of self-emptying before you need to clean out the dust bag. That's where the similarities end. While the Q7 M5+ has an effective mop, the Q10 S5+ takes things one step further with its Vibrarise 2.0 Mopping System. The mop vibrates at a frequency of 3000 times per minute, which allows it to easily handle grime, dirt, and the toughest stains. The active vibrations also help reduce water stains as the robot follows its cleaning path. Speaking of cleaning paths, the Q10 S5+ comes with Reactive Tech Obstacle Avoidance, so it can comfortably navigate around objects on the floor. Even if your kids leave their toys scattered around the room, the Q10 S5+ will work around it, ensuring that you don't have to do everything yourself. The Q10 S5+ also has a much larger battery compared to the Q7 M5+, can remember the layouts of up to four floors, and automatically lifts the mop when cleaning a carpet. All of this not only makes the Q10 S5+ ideal for larger households with multiple pets, but you can also run the device and let it do its thing while you and your family go out and enjoy the sun. Comparing the Roborock Q7 M5+ and the Q10 S5+ Here's a quick look at how the two new Q series robot vacuums from Roborock compare. Features Roborock Q7 M5+ Roborock Q10 S5+ Features Suction Power Roborock Q7 M5+ 10,000 Pa Roborock Q10 S5+ 10,000 Pa Features Battery Roborock Q7 M5+ 3,200mAh Roborock Q10 S5+ 5,200mAh Features Navigation Roborock Q7 M5+ LDS, LiDAR navigation Roborock Q10 S5+ LDS, LiDAR navigation Features Multi-floor mapping Roborock Q7 M5+ 3 floors Roborock Q10 S5+ 4 floors Features Carpet sensor Roborock Q7 M5+ No, manually remove the mop Roborock Q10 S5+ Yes, automatically lifts the mop Features Obstacle avoidance Roborock Q7 M5+ No Roborock Q10 S5+ Yes, Reactive Tech Features Dimensions Roborock Q7 M5+ 325mm diameter Roborock Q10 S5+ 350mm diameter Features Dock Roborock Q7 M5+ RockDock Plus Roborock Q10 S5+ RockDock Plus Roborock QV 35A – Entry-level price, high-end features The Roborock QV 35A is the perfect option if you don't want to spend thousands on a robot vacuum. Despite its affordable price tag, which goes even lower for Amazon Prime Day, the QV 35A isn't lacking in features, allowing for a smart and thorough cleaning and device maintenance. To start, the QV 35A features 8,000 Pa of suction power. It may not be as high as Roborock's other new releases, but it's still more than enough to handle most dust and debris on floors and carpets. At maximum suction, the main brush also increases its speed by 10% to easily pick up everything on the floor. The main brush is made of rubber and is designed with spiral blades to prevent tangled hair. It also features a floating design, allowing it to adapt to uneven surfaces and provide an efficient and easy clean. Similarly, the side brush has a unique arc shape with asymmetric brushes to stop tangling. Instead of a traditional mop design, the QV 35A features dual rotating mops that spin at 200 RPM, providing the same results as if you were mopping an area by hand. Accidentally spilled pasta sauce? Your dinner might be ruined, but your floor will be spotless. You can choose between a whopping 30 levels of mop dampness, letting you completely customize the mopping experience depending on the floor type and humidity. The robot can also automatically lift the mops when it senses carpets. It serves a secondary purpose as well, ensuring ventilation when the robot is in the charging dock, which helps prevent mold and odor buildup. The QV 35A is designed for smart cleaning, featuring options such as cleaning bedrooms and living areas before heading to the kitchen and bathrooms. It also allows for washing the mop after cleaning every room and provides the option to clean in the direction of the floor panels to pick up dust and debris from crevices better. And finally, there's the enhanced dock, packed with features you'd expect from a far more expensive device. The multi-functional dock washes the mops using a three-stage cleaning process and automatically dries the mop pads. It also empties the dust bin, providing up to 7 weeks of hands-free cleaning before you need to empty the dust bag. And it will also automatically refill the robot's water tank. If you're looking for an effective, powerful, and affordable option, consider the Roborock QV 35A. Roborock Qrevo S5V – For a true hands-free cleaning experience The Qrevo S5V takes the best that Roborock has to offer and pushes it to the next level. If you're looking for a powerful cleaning companion that can handle everything while you enjoy a summer's day out at the beach, it doesn't get much better than this. It all starts with a whopping 12,000 Pa suction power. Whether it's cleaning up a mess, handling everyday dust, picking up pet hair, or giving your carpet a deep clean, there's nothing the Qrevo S5V can't manage with ease. Hair tangling isn't an issue with any of Roborock's new releases. But the Qrevo S5V takes it even further with a unique split main brush design with two parallel short bristle rollers and spiral blades. These work in tandem to direct any collected hair to the dustbin inlet for effective detangling and 100% hair removal. Like the QV 35A, the S5V features dual rotating mops that spin at 200 RPM, offers 30 levels of water flow options, and automatically lifts when sensing carpets. However, like everything else, the S5V takes it a step further, with the mop coming with an extendable design. When it detects objects like table and chair legs, sideboards, or corners, the mop automatically extends for more effective edge cleaning, with up to 98.8% coverage. It comes with Reactive Tech Obstacle Avoidance, like the QV 35A and Q10 S5+, so it'll comfortably navigate around cluttered floors without interrupting the cleaning cycle. And like the QV 35A, you get all the SmartPlan features for an efficient clean. Once it's done, it hands itself over to the multi-functional dock to handle the rest. This includes washing and drying the mop, emptying the dust bin, and refilling the robot's water tank. Like Roborock's other devices, you can enjoy up to 7 weeks of hands-free use before needing to empty the dust bag. Why waste your summer and the warm weather on boring chores? Let the Roborock Qrevo S5V take care of things instead. Comparing the Roborock Qrevo S5V and the QV 35A Both of Roborock's newest Qrevo series robot vacuums have plenty in common, but there are a few key differences that you should know about to make your buying choice easier.
