The OnePlus Watch Harry Potter Limited Edition is identical to the original OnePlus Watch and features a circular 1.39-inch display. However, the Harry Potter model allows you to customize the UI with new watch face options from Hogwarts houses such as Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Slytherin, or Ravenclaw. OnePlus says that the watch strap is made of vegan leather. The case is touted to be corrosion-resistant, and it comes with Harry’s iconic lightning bolt scar etched on it and the power button.

Acti just turned your smartphone keyboard into an AI assistant
One keyboard that types your words and does your errands. This might be the upgrade your thumbs have been waiting for.
Your smartphone’s keyboard is the thing you interact with the most, and yet, it has largely remained the same since it was introduced two decades ago. Yes, it has become better at understanding our typing habits and predicting text, but its function has largely remained unchanged.
A Singapore startup called Acti looked at the keyboard and the large space it occupies on your smartphone and asked a fair question. Why not make it actually do things? After seeing its keyboard in action, I think the idea has legs.
Finding photos is so much easier with Siri AI in iOS 27 that I no longer scroll
Natural language photo search in iOS 27 is the kind of feature that quietly becomes essential.
My camera roll has crossed 8,000 photos, and it got there by capturing random moments (only to forget them later). The problem, however, starts when someone asks me to share something specific. It could be their portrait from last weekend or the food pictures they snapped using my phone.
Finding those pictures usually means scrolling through my seemingly endless camera roll. If the photo is a month or two old, I end up scrolling past hundreds of other images to find it, and that gets old fast.
