HP announces new OmniBook laptops and a desktop with Nvidia RTX Spark.

HP is adding to the impending deluge of RTX Spark computers due in October with the OmniBook X 14, OmniBook Ultra 16, and the small form factor OmniDesk. My colleague Dom saw the Ultra among other Nvidia-powered laptops at IFA, but we still don’t know any prices. Considering HP’s specs show both OmniBooks will start with 32GB of unified memory and 1TB of storage, signs point to them being expensive.

Here’s what it’s like to ride in a Tesla Cybercab.

Some of the pro-Tesla content creators that the company invited to its closed-door Cybercab event are starting to post their first rides. * Tesla and SpaceX investor Sawyer Merritt posted his first ride on X. * Herbert Ong said the weirdest part is “how normal it feels.” * Chuck Cook describes it like “getting into a first class seat on an airplane.” * And YouTuber David Moss took his blind father for his first ride, specifically to highlight what driverless cars could mean for people with visual impairments.

Ecovacs’ latest mopping robot vacuum shoots, seals, and shields.

The flagship Deebot X12S Omnicyclone comes with a “FocusJet” that sprays cleaning solution on dried-on stains before scrubbing, and a dust-mite chamber that pushes down into the pile to create a seal while vacuuming. There’s also a privacy shield to cover the robovac’s built-in camera. The Deebot X12S Omnicyclone is now available in the US for $1,299.99.

Dyson launches three new robot vacuums.

The Nurovi range features a robot mop with spinning pads, a vacuum-only option, and an upgraded version of its Spot+Scrub AI, which adds UV detection and comes in white. Nurovi supposedly stands for “neural intelligence” combined with a camera-based vision system, which makes the robots better at navigation than prior models — based on limited demos I saw at IFA in Berlin. All three robots go on sale this month.

Reolink’s latest pan-and-tilt security cam can last six months on a single charge.

The wireless OMVI 2i Ultra camera also has a built-in 6W solar panel that can keep the camera charged in 30 minutes of daily sunlight. It comes with an 8-megapixel wide-view camera that offers a fixed view of your yard, while a 5-megapixel pan-tilt camera can track and zoom in on activity.

Timekettle’s new earbuds are better at translating videos.

In addition to improved AI capabilities that are better at understanding and translating longer multilingual conversations, Timekettle’s new $379 W4 Plus earbuds can translate videos from YouTube, Netflix, and other platforms while you’re wearing just one of the buds. Last year’s W4 required you to wear both, with one playing the original audio while the other played the translation. [Image: The Timekettle W4 Plus earbuds will be available starting next week in space black, midnight blue, and sandy gold color options. https://platform.theverge.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2026/09/timekettle.jpg?quality=90&strip=all]
