Companies like Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron have shifted the bulk of their production toward high-bandwidth memory (HBM), which powers the AI chips everyone is scrambling for. That leaves very little room for regular PC memory, and prices have shot up exponentially as a result. But it seems that memory prices will drop next year, thanks to companies using Chinese memory in their products. As…

Some ideas sound theoretical until they appear in a place as ordinary as your morning coffee. Artly is trying to answer that question with the Barista Bot, its robotic barista system that is already serving drinks at locations including Muji in Portland, Oregon. The company is attempting to take something that has traditionally depended on human skill, repetition, and instinct, then translate it into a system that can reproduce the same result consistently at scale. What makes the Barista Bot more interesting than a standard automation story is that Artly is not trying to build the coffee equivalent of a…

Motorola’s latest smartphones are getting some sweet carrier deals. From the latest foldables to the budget models, the company is starting promotions on two major US carriers, although the approach is slightly different.

T-Mobile gets the flashiest Razr deal The Motorola Razr, Motorola Razr+, and Motorola Razr Fold are all headed to the T-Mobile network.

Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun had a straightforward reason for why the YU7 wasn’t outselling the Tesla Model Y in China: the base model wasn’t cheap enough.  At just 10,000 yuan ($1,450) less than Tesla’s Model Y, the price gap simply wasn’t compelling enough.

Introducing the Xiaomi YU7 Standard Edition The new True Standard Edition is priced at 233,500 yuan, about  $34,300, which makes it 30,000 yuan ($4,350) cheaper than the standard rear-wheel-drive Model Y.  While that price gap…
