Sleep Number’s Climate360 smart bed warms and cools sleepers for better comfort

This story is part of our continuing coverage of CES 2020, including tech and gadgets from the showroom floor.

To get a better night’s sleep in 2020, Sleep Number debuted a new smart bed at CES this week that is sure to lull even insomniacs to sleep by controlling the bed’s temperature.

The Climate360 Smart Bed creates microclimates on each side of the bed and can be adjusted based on someone’s needs. If one person prefers to fall asleep cold while the other prefers to be warm and cozy, this bed can make each side its own temperature. The bed can provide up to 12 degrees of cooling and can warm up to 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

The bed also works with our natural sleep cycle by warming up the bed at first to help people fall asleep faster and then cooling it down throughout the night to keep people asleep. Sleep Number said in its press release that the bed was tested with more than 700 million sleep sessions. 

“Sleep Number is making significant advancements to address the global sleep crisis that is affecting the health of millions. With more than 700 million sleep sessions of data and research, our digital health platform is linking quality sleep to individualized wellness, and our 360 smart beds are delivering proven higher quality sleep,” said Shelly Ibach, President and CEO of Sleep Number, in the press release. 

The bed was able to capture the attention of CES, as the Climate360 Smart Bed received the Best of Innovation Award for the smart home category this year. 

Sleep Number said that 81% of people have temperature issues when they sleep and that the new bed is up to 50% more breathable, so you won’t wake up sweaty in the middle of the night. 

As with other 360 Smart Bed models, the Climate360 can also adjust its firmness, and also features head and foot adjustability, which has been proven to help those who snore.  

Even though it made its debut this week, the Climate360 Smart Bed won’t be on the market until 2021. Sleep Number said that it would retail for $7,999.

Here’s a shocking reminder of just how far ahead Intel is in race with AMD
Intel Core i5-14600K processor inside its socket.

It's no secret that between Intel and AMD, it's Intel that holds the majority of the market -- but a recent market analysis report really highlights just how much Intel beats both AMD and Apple. While both Intel and AMD make some of the best CPUs, and Apple has its own excellent proprietary silicon, Intel's CPU shipments trump them both. The report tells us that Intel controls a whopping 78% of the PC processor market.

The information comes from Canalys, a PC industry research firm. It's worth noting that it excludes tablets, which would have bumped up Apple's numbers a bit, as well as Qualcomm's. But zooming in on the PC CPU market alone, including desktops and laptops, tells a different story. The research shows a 78% market share for Intel and 13% for AMD, while Apple accounts for about 8% or slightly more. The rest belongs to MediaTek, Qualcomm, and ARM.

Beware! The latest Windows 11 update might crash your PC
A laptop running Windows 11.

Microsoft releases routine updates for Windows every month, and while the intent is to fix issues and occasionally add new features, the latest one is doing more harm than good. Some Windows 11 users have taken to social media to report that the latest KB5035853 update could be crashing their PCs, with the feared Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) appearing on startup.

Although Microsoft hasn't appeared to document any known issues with this update for Windows 11 22H2 and Windows 11 23H3, there's a Reddit thread on the matter. Frustrated Windows 11 users mention the problems they are experiencing after installing the update. One mentions that Explorer.exe shows an error during shutdown and another reports that the ribbon of the File Explorer is slow to load. Audio-related issues and PCs feeling laggy when gaming are among some of the other problems being reported.

We finally know the price of Asus’ most powerful gaming NUC

The first Asus ROG NUC (Next Unit of Computing) model is just around the corner. The small form factor PC is now up for pre-order at a German retailer, and although it's powerful enough to rival some of the best laptops, it costs more than many comparable models -- and you'll still have to pay extra for a monitor.

Asus' first take on Intel's portable PC contains a lot of compute power in a small chassis. Although there are a few configurations of the PC, the one that was spotted up for sale ahead of time comes with Intel's latest Meteor Lake-H CPU, the Core Ultra 9 185H, which sports 16 cores and 22 threads and can be boosted to run at up to 5.1GHz, all with a thermal design power (TDP) of 45 watts. However, Asus allows overclocking, meaning that the CPU can run at up to 65 watts instead.
