Garmin Descent X50i Adds a Big-Screen Dive Computer to the Outfit’s Range https://www.coolthings.com/garmin-descent-x50i-big-screen-dive-computer-200-atm-rating/ https://www.coolthings.com/garmin-descent-x50i-big-screen-dive-computer-200-atm-rating/#respond Wed, 20 Nov 2024 18:53:59 +0000 https://www.coolthings.com/?p=111222 Garmin is no stranger to dive computers. They’ve made a number of them clad in a sports watch form factor over the last few years. With the Garmin Descent X50i, though, the outfit moves on to a bigger, more traditional dive computer form factor. While it no longer looks like a GPS sports watch, the new dive computer is still designed to strap on to your wrist, allowing you to see important information about the dive with a quick glance. […]

EcoFlow Power Hat Puts Solar Cells in a Sun Hat for Charging on the Go https://www.coolthings.com/ecoflow-power-hat-solar-charging-cells-beach-hat/ https://www.coolthings.com/ecoflow-power-hat-solar-charging-cells-beach-hat/#respond Mon, 28 Oct 2024 18:48:56 +0000 https://www.coolthings.com/?p=111007 It looks like any good, old sun hat – you know, the kind that provides shade for your face, neck, and shoulders from the blistering rays of the sun. More than a way to keep your upper extremities from getting sunburned while you lay around on a beach blanket, though, the EcoFlow Power Hat pulls double duty as an on-the-go solar charging device. That’s right, this sun hat has integrated solar cells that allow it continually generate power from light […]

Apple Watch Series 10 Debuts the Slimmest Case and the Biggest Screen on Apple’s Wearable Yet https://www.coolthings.com/apple-watch-series-10-slimmer-case-biggest-screen-neural-processor-smartwatch/ https://www.coolthings.com/apple-watch-series-10-slimmer-case-biggest-screen-neural-processor-smartwatch/#respond Tue, 10 Sep 2024 17:49:27 +0000 https://www.coolthings.com/?p=110646 It has, apparently, been 10 years since Apple’s smartwatch made its debut. While there were a good number of skeptics at the time, it’s fair to say the wearable has been nothing but another immense success for the outfit (and all the outfits that sell Apple Watch accessories), which is why it’s gotten yearly refreshes throughout that time. That doesn’t change with the new Apple Watch Series 10, which brings a number of hardware changes and upgraded capabilities that, the […]

We’ve seen numerous prototypes and even commercial ones come out through the years. What makes the Arc’teryx x Skip Mo/Go different, though, is the fact that it integrates the exoskeleton into a pair of pants, allowing you to walk around with motorized reinforcement without looking like a futuristic cyborg. A leg-worn motorized exoskeleton, the device is designed to provide a boost as you walk, augmenting the functions of the quadricep and hamstring muscles while absorbing any […]

However, they still wear very prominently on your wrist, which may not be ideal if you prefer wearing jewelry or more traditional watches instead. That’s why smart rings have attracted so much attention in recent years, as they can handle all the basic health and wellness tracking that smartwatches do, all while wearing very discreetly on one of your fingers. Subtlety is the smart ring’s […]

The Samsung Galaxy Watch FE is the latest to get that treatment. Just like other Flagship Edition releases, the smartwatch gets many top-of-the-line features from the flagship model, which, in this case, is the Galaxy Watch 6. It doesn’t get everything, of course, with this fan-friendly model […]

Form Smart Swim 2 Brings New Features to the Stats-Tracking Swim Goggles https://www.coolthings.com/form-smart-swim-2-stats-tracking-swim-goggles/ Wed, 03 Apr 2024 19:01:51 +0000 https://www.coolthings.com/?p=109445 Back in 2019, Form released their swim goggles with an integrated HUD overlay that showed your performance metrics in real-time. It was received really well, especially since it didn’t put a tiny screen on the corner of your eye, instead overlaying the stats directly onto the lens, so you retained an unobstructed view of the pool. The Form Smart Swim 2 is the second generation of those swim goggles, bringing some key improvements that make it even better. It retains […]

From what we can tell, it hasn’t really taken off, as people the world over continue to walk at their very average pace. While it may be a hard sell to consumers, maybe having people walk faster can be a more appealing idea to businesses. That’s […]
