Tamaggo camera egg takes 360-degree panoramas in one snap

Creating panoramas has always been somewhat of a photography novelty, and the continuing evolution of both regular cameras and smartphones has given us some pretty good options to work with. Many new point-and-shoot cameras come with a built-in panorama features and if you have a smartphone, there are countless apps that will allow you to create long, stitched-together panoramas right from your phone. Most of these options don’t allow for 360-degree shooting–and we certainly don’t know any that can shoot 360-degrees and also have a 14-megapixel sensor.

The adorable egg-shaped Tamaggo ($200) takes both of those features and puts them into a small robot-like package that will make panorama-shooting about as easy as it can be, and give you 14-megapixel shots to work with. The small camera comes with a helpful stand and will take shots in either full 360-degree mode, or either horizontal or vertical panorama. The camera has a 2-inch LCD touchscreen and runs off of a li-polymer rechargeable battery that can connect to your computer via micro USB. The camera also features Bluetooth and built-in WiFi for sharing your photos. 

The Tamaggo will be available in the second quarter of this year for $200.

The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra placed in its dock.

The Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra and Roborock S8 Pro Ultra share a lot of similarities -- the least of which is their brand name. Along with the capacity to vacuum and mop in a single cleaning cycle, the two robots can automatically empty their dustbins and clean their dirty mops once the cycle is complete. That alone makes them two of the best robot vacuums on the market.

But while there are plenty of similarities between the S8 MaxV Ultra and S8 Pro Ultra, there are a few key differences that could make one better for your home than the other. From pricing and vacuuming power to navigational skills and more, here's a comprehensive look at the Roborock S8 MaxV Ultra and Roborock S8 Pro Ultra.
