Presidents Day and Valentine's Day have spurred a flurry of deals on tech gadgets, including significant discounts on earbuds and other electronics, while Google has released the first beta version of Android 17 for Pixel devices. Additionally, the electric vehicle market continues to evolve, with shifting dominance and questions about future growth.
According to The Verge, consumers could find deals on a variety of items. The publication highlighted the "50 best Presidents Day deals" on items like earbuds, speakers, TVs, and smart home tech. Sheena Vasani and Brandon Widder from The Verge reported that discounts were returning after a slow period following the holidays. The Beats Studio Buds Plus, described as "eye-catching noise-canceling earbuds," were on sale for 41 percent off for Presidents Day, as reported by The Verge. The Verge also published a Valentine's Day gift guide, featuring 32 gift ideas.
In other tech news, Google released the first beta version of Android 17 for Pixel devices. Ars Technica reported that the initial release, which was initially delayed, is now available for recent Pixel devices. The focus of this beta is on testing system and API changes, including expanded support for adaptive apps. Google is expected to provide more details about feature changes in the coming months.
The electric vehicle (EV) market is also undergoing significant shifts. Wired reported that Tesla is no longer the dominant force in the EV market, having lost its title of the world's largest EV maker to China's BYD. The article noted that many automakers are now racing to release their own EVs, while some companies are scaling back production plans. The future of the EV market is uncertain, with questions surrounding charging infrastructure, the potential obsolescence of gas-powered vehicles, and the possibility of an American company regaining dominance.
