Nanoleaf is permanently lowering the prices for its most popular products, including the best-selling Shapes, Lines, Elements, and Blocks smart lights. According to the company, it has been working with both the manufacturing and supply chain teams for the past two years on this initiative — and the result is a 36% price reduction for select items.

Officially known as the SmarterLife Pricing Initiative, a variety of Nanoleaf products are now permanently listed at a lower price. For example, the Blocks Combo XL Smarter Kit is $200 (was $250), the Shapes Hexagons Expansion Pack is $50 (was $70), and the Shapes Triangles & Mini Triangles Smarter Kit is $160 (was $250).

The full list of price cuts is staggering, comprising over 50 different products and kits. It’s a consumer-friendly move that’s a bit of a surprise given the current economic climate, but one that should help Nanoleaf compete with other, more affordable brands like Govee.

“The economic climate has made affordability a key concern for many consumers,” said Gimmy Chu, Nanoleaf CEO & Co-Founder. “At Nanoleaf, we believe that lighting should be an extraordinary everyday experience, not just a luxury. Innovation and technology has always been at the heart of what we do, so we knew it was imperative that lower prices did not mean lower quality. We’ve had to completely reoptimize our company structures as a whole the past two years, but with our team’s dedication and commitment to achieving this goal, we’re proud to introduce SmarterLife Pricing — making Nanoleaf products more accessible for everyone in our community.”

Pricing for all the eligible items is now live on the Nanoleaf Shop, and should be rolling out to third-party retailers like Amazon and Best Buy in the coming days. The discounts are available in North America and EU/UK, with other regions to be announced soon.

Google Home’s Interactive Storytime feature has me wondering who actually asked for this
Google Home gets interactive AI storytime, smarter alarms, and broader camera support.

Google Home's latest update introduces several new features, including Gemini-powered Interactive Storytime. While I’m not sure who asked for the feature, it lets families build original stories about specific topics on the fly, instead of just listening to a known story. 

So what's the big new feature here?

Proxima wants to move blood tests into the home, and it has cleared an important early hurdle
The portable analyzer delivers blood-count results in about 20 minutes, but its promise depends on transparent clinical data
Furniture, Table, Desk

Algocyte’s Proxima is designed to run blood-count tests from a small finger-prick sample and send the results to a clinician in about 20 minutes. For patients who need frequent monitoring, that could mean fewer trips to a clinic or laboratory.

The device has also moved beyond the concept stage. Proxima carries UK conformity credentials, while Algocyte operates under a certified medical-device quality system. Those steps give the project more weight than a prototype shown at a launch event.

Remember Samsung’s Ballie home robot? It may finally be inching closer to reality
Leaked app wireframes give the strongest hint yet that Samsung's Ballie home robot, first shown at CES 2020, might still be headed toward an actual release.

Samsung's rolling home robot has been the industry's longest-running "will it ever actually ship" joke, and I'll admit I'd mostly given up on it. Now, there's finally a glimmer of hope.

Samsung first unveiled Ballie as a concept at CES 2020. Then, it showed it as a significantly upgraded version four years later. However, the company never confirmed a release date or committed to releasing it at all.
