It wasn't easy getting to look at the Honor Robot Phone as the interest has been incredible and the stand was absolutely rammed! However, I did eventually get a chance to get some demonstrations and photos for…

Permission to talk Freely?
Freely, launched in 2024, offered an Internet-based alternative to traditional TV services but was limited to cheap TVs and gained little to no traction. New set-top boxes are now available, so is it time for Freely to shine?
If Tesla has taught us anything, it's that you just go along with it. Let AI/CEOs/Presidents make things up. Then act impressed and go with the flow. When it all goes wrong, blame immigrants or something.

Honor Magic 8 series launch for UK starts with a Magic 8 Lite teaser
Honor is almost ready to bring the new Magic 8 Series devices to UK consumers, and the first model to drop - perhaps literally - will be the Magic 8 Lite.
This is an incredible price for the awesome Honor Magic V5. Use the code AV5BF130 to get £130 off the already discounted price on the Honor website.
Like renting at this point. Okay, so you don't have a landlord to end your lease, and your kids maybe inherit a home at the end (if they don't have to take over the mortgage) but it assumes you don't default at any point in 50 years, or interest rates don't rocket, and you lose your home anyway.
$600bn I expect.

Honor Magic V5: Unveiling the Thinnest Foldable Smartphone that’s now on sale in the UK
The Honor Magic V5, launching at £1700 with a £300 discount for early orders, is the world’s thinnest foldable smartphone at 8.8mm.
I'm too busy not building a rocket to go to Mars to have time to not be US president. It's tough having so many things I simply refuse to do.
Being in the UK, thanks to the time difference I really can wake up every morning and ponder 'What has Trump done now' as I turn on the news.
I feel you you all, especially as we have people here trying to bring MAGA here and using all the same talking points.
It won't stop them trying. I think we all know AI often doesn't work well, and in many cases AI isn't even AI - just an existing service renamed.
As long as some people can make some money now from the hype, they'll be happy and we will pick up the pieces afterwards.

Hive View indoor camera, by British Gas. Rear of box detailing features of the product.
Doing a clean up and found an unopened Hive View camera - a 'British Gas innovation'. This product became e-waste this month.
I never used it and now NOBODY can, AT ALL. Not even locally on their home network.
Another example of a product you buy but businesses can kill at any time.
Be warned!
Yeah, but what about when you get a call at 2am on a cold winter morning to learn your sick gran has been rushed to hospital and you need to drive 800 miles without a single break? And by the time you get there, you'll need a new battery because they only last for 24 hours before catching fire. Huh?
Oh well, that's the end of that. At midnight, Amazon is scrapping payments for receipts. They'll still pay for the odd survey but they've almost dried up to nothing in the last few months.
I did well for the time they operated it I suppose, but perhaps times are hard for the company now!
Contrasts nicely with snakes on a plane...
I knew it!
😂
Is this where Elon comes in? Is that why he wants to build these rockets?
Hands-on with the Honor Magic V5; coming to the UK late August!

If you need to install a screen at a public toilet sink, and place stickers on the tap/dryer itself, maybe you didn't come up with such a brilliant design as you thought you did. #Dyson
