Redmi Buds 8 Lite with hybrid ANC, 36-hour battery life launched in PH

Xiaomi has unveiled a new pair of entry-level wireless earbuds, the Redmi Buds 8 Lite , aiming to deliver clear sound and practical features at an affordable price. The buds are built around a 12.4mm driver with a titanium diaphragm, which the company says provides clear and detailed audio. They connect via Bluetooth 5.4 and support both AAC and SBC codecs for compatibility with a wide range of smartphones and devices.

Apple taps Google Gemini for major Siri overhaul

Apple has selected Google’s Gemini artificial intelligence as the engine for its next wave of smart features, including a long-awaited overhaul of the Siri voice assistant. Under the agreement, the upcoming “Apple Foundation Models” will be developed using Gemini’s advanced AI and Google’s cloud services. These systems will form the backbone of Apple Intelligence, the company’s suite of AI tools. The first major result will be a significantly upgraded Siri, designed to be more intuitive and personalized, slated for release later this year.

Dell understands consumers don’t buy computers just because of AI

Over the past few years, we’ve been bombarded with the word “AI” on every tech product sold to us. Sadly, many of these products barely have AI in them and, in reality, the majority of consumers just find it confusing and haven’t really considered it as their main consideration why they are buying. Finally, one tech company realizes this. Dell, in its CES 2026 briefing, said that AI probably confuses consumers more than helping them understand what products are for. “We’re very focused on delivering upon the AI capabilities of a device—in fact everything that we’re announcing has an NPU in it—but what we’ve learned over the course of this year, especially from a consumer perspective, is they’re not buying based on AI,” said Dell Product Head Kerin Terwillinger.
